  She scoffed and rolled her eyes angrily. “Fuck you Tim!” She turned to walk away. Tim slapped her bottom . . . hard. Kassie whirled around in shock.

  “Don’t slap my ass!” She shoved him. “It’s not yours anymore!”

  Tim grabbed her arm and hoisted her over his shoulder.

  Kassie gasped. “Tim, stop!”

  He slapped her bottom again just as hard. Fear filled her suddenly. He was too angry and she wasn’t sure what would happen to her.

  “Say that again.” He ground out through clenched teeth. Her mind raced with all of the things that could happen here today. Every slap went straight to her clit making her throb and tighten, instantly growing wet.

  “I said fuck you!” She tried to get down when he did it again, harder.

  Kassie groaned gripping the back of his shirt. That one made her throb even more. Kassie lost her breath a little and closed her eyes. She suddenly wasn’t very afraid realizing that Tim wouldn’t hurt her, but she was incredibly turned on. It made her wonder, how angry he really was with her. Was he angry or was he just as turned on as she was right now? Tim wasn’t the angry type. He said what he said and if you didn’t like it too damn bad.

  “Say that shit again!” He growled. He felt like there was a beast inside of him, fighting to get out and all he wanted was to rip her apart.

  “Stop it Tim, let go of me.” She whimpered softly.

  He grunted instead, carrying her inside and slamming her door.

  Kassie backed up after he let her down; Tim followed, trapping her against the kitchen wall. Pride aside, seeing the murder in his eyes, she figured now would be a good time to fess up.

  “It was my little brother, Benny. He came to stay with me until they finished painting his apartment.” She said gently. Kassie lowered her head; he hooked her chin raising her eyes.

  “Why do you have to frustrate me?” He ground out.

  “What else am I gonna do with my day?” Kassie asked, trying to lighten his mood. Tim kissed her and she gave in, immediately rising to the kiss. She had been dreaming about this for so long . . . but then she stopped him, remembering something.

  “Tim, I have to wash my hands I killed a bug that was in my glove. I think I have bug juice on my hands.” She said softly.

  “No.” He said and took off her shirt running his fingers over the black tuxedo bra. Kassie started away, Tim grabbed her arm tightly pushing her back against the wall, and she pulled away.

  “Stop it Timothy.” She snapped pushing him away. His eyes flashed with delight, this was going to be a fight and he was up for it.

  But she didn’t want him to stop. Tim grabbed her throat tightly, staring into her eyes as he kissed her slowly. He slid his tongue over hers; Kassie whimpered and pulled her lips away from his.

  “You fucking suck Tim.” She whispered. His grip tightened a bit and she whimpered grabbing his shirt. Tim kissed her again this time rougher than before and letting her throat go. He grabbed one of her breast firmly. Kassie gasped shivering hard.

  “Oh fuck!” She cried.

  “You’ve got a real mouth on you Kassidy. See how it works on your knees.” Tim gripped her shoulders, pushing her down and Kassie went willingly. She was so hungry for him that she was completely out of herself.

  Kassie stroked his throbbing length through his pants and her touch seemed to burn through the fabric. She unbuckled his belt, and pulled down the zipper coming eye to eye with the heather gray fabric of his boxer briefs. She kissed the pouch missing him it so much more than she ever thought she would miss a man’s penis.

  Kassie reached into Tim’s pants and grabbed him tightly, squeezing hard. Tim moaned long and loud.

  “Kassie.” He rasped above her. She pulled his pants down, his boxers followed. Kassie licked him the entire length of his staff; Tim moaned, throwing his head back. “God Kassie!”

  She wrapped her mouth around him taking him deep, her soft moans matching his. Kassie dug her nails into his thighs tasting him deeper. Tim’s mind was filled with images of what he was going to do to her as he reached back and grabbed the counter for support. He looked down at her, whimpering in ecstasy as she devoured him. She pulled back from him, licking the tip of his cock in slow hungry strokes, curling her tongue around the fleshy head. Tim almost erupted right then.

  He was fast losing it and knew he wanted to come inside of her. Tim pulled her to her feet kissing her in hungry abandon as he pushed her pants and underwear down; Kassie kicked off her sneakers eagerly and stepped out of her clothes. Tim turned her and shoved her against the wall.

  “Pussy out.” He growled. Kassie arched her back, presenting herself to him. Tim slid his fingers into her, grinning when she whimpered. “That’s what I’ve been missing.” He rubbed the sweet nectar from his fingers onto his cock and then rubbed his broad head against her clit, smiling as she moaned and twitched against him.

  “Timmy, please.” She looked at him over her shoulder with passion glazed eyes. He filled her slowly, Kassie cried out arching into him even more. She needed a moment to regain herself, he felt so amazing that she couldn’t formulate a thought. “Please, more.” She shivered. Tim didn’t need to be told twice.

  Tim slammed into her hard and she met his thrusts with her own hungry ones, moving her hips in a circular motion that hit all the most sensitive spots on his penis. She felt so good that he chanted her name like a sweet love song.

  He wrapped his arms around her tightly, enclosing her against him and setting an intense rhythm with his hips. Kassie moaned trying to get away from the unbearable pleasure, he had her locked so tightly in place that she couldn’t even squirm against him. Her knees went weak but he held her up, growling as he pounded her into sweet oblivion.

  Kassie threw her head back against his shoulder and screamed out in pleasure. Tim kissed her neck, sliding his tongue over her fevered skin.

  “Timmy.” She jolted against him as an orgasm shook her. Tim followed her over the edge not a minute after, crying out and holding her tightly to him as his body shook and jerked against hers.

  She sighed gripping his thighs. Her nails were like talons in his skin. Tim was in heaven after so many weeks of living in the dark and uncertainty. Now she was back in his arms and he couldn’t even imagine having to let her go again.

  “I miss you.” He whispered. “I miss you so, so much baby.” He kissed her neck again, his breath stirring the curls there.

  “I’ve missed you too.” Kassie leaned against him, slowly lifting from her haze. “Can we stop fighting now?” She asked quietly.

  “God, yes.” He kissed her, turning her to face him.

  “I’m so sorry. I got scared Tim.” Kassie lowered her head to his chest, ashamed to look at him.

  He tugged her ponytail and forced her eyes up. “Why?”

  “I told you why. Loving you hurts.” She said softly. Tim shook his head at her, how could she ever think that he would hurt her in any way. He loved her so much it was insane.

  “I’m not going to break your heart.” He stroked her cheek. “Hurting you would kill me.” Tim shook his head.

  “I love you too.” Kassie said closing her eyes as tears flowed down her cheeks. He smiled wrapping her in his arms; Kassie buried her face in his neck, inhaling his spicy cologne. Comfort overshadowed the sweet fading pangs of her climax.

  “I didn’t mean to hurt you Timothy.” She continued, cupped his face in her hands. “My Timothy.” She whispered.

  “You did hurt me . . . a lot.” He said. “But I forgive you baby. Do you forgive me for walking out on us?” Tim kissed her. Kassie nodded, looking at him with eyes full of love. Tim took her hand and pulled her into the living room.

  Tim lowered her onto the couch kissing her softly before sliding between her thighs; she was heavy with their scent. Tim slid his tongue over her slowly, moaning at their taste mixed with her sweetness. Kassie arched to his wicked tongue, running her fingers through his hair.<

  “Suck my clit baby, please.” She whispered watching him. Tim did as told, pulling the warm mound into his mouth and flicking his tongue over the tiny pink bulb. Kassie gasped arching her back. She let out a shattered cry and pulled back a bit clutching her chest. He pulled her back to his mouth, applying a deep suction to the cleft. She whimpered breaking into a powerful tremble that shook him too. His tongue was so warm against her and soft, each stroke felt awesome.

  “You’re so delicious.” He whispered and slid his tongue over her before wrapping his entire mouth around her cleft. Kassie moved against his slick tongue gasping loudly with every thrust.

  “Yes, Timmy.” She whimpered. Kassie bit her lip gently as he came over her and settled between her thighs. She spread her legs wider and he sank into her. Kass clung to him shivering. Tim moved slowly staring into her eyes; they fit together in perfect harmony, as if their bodies were meant for each other.

  “My sweet Kassie.” He kissed her hard and wild and her kiss matched his. He whispered her name over and over, pressing his body against hers and thrusting harder. Tim closed his eyes tightly and moaned, increasing his pace and plunging to her depths constantly. She kissed his neck moving with him, crying out feverishly against his warm skin. Kassie’s head swirled at the passion of him. It felt almost too overwhelming but she knew now that he really did love her and all of her fears floated away.

  They climbed faster into pleasure, calling out as they moved closer and closer to release. Tim rose onto his elbows, thrusting harder and deeper, he pulled down her bra taking the magnificent globes out and watching them for a moment as they bounced before his eyes. He lowered his head, suckling and tugging her nipples hungrily. Kassie gasped in pure pleasure.

  Tim’s head began to go light and tingly, his abdomen trembled, and his balls tightened. He tried to slow, tried to stop himself; she was so delicious he just wasn’t ready to end this ecstasy. With one last thrust, he filled her with his warm seed screaming and bucking against her hard. Kassie held him as he gasped and quaked above her, his face covered in the most pleasure she’d ever seen haunt his handsome features. He gripped the sofa arm above her head and pressed deep into her, jolting and jerking inside of her before he stilled.

  “Tim!” Kassie whimpered softly, still trembling. Comprehension of what happened between them simply eluded her and then within a moment it hit her in the most monumental way. They made love, they made up, and they were okay. She felt an odd mix of fear and elation fill her. She loved this man so much and she had told him. There was no turning back now and she didn’t want too.

  “Fuck I forgot-,” Before he could finish his sentence, she quickly realized what he was going to say.

  “I’m on the pill.” Kassie whispered kissing his neck and chin. “I’m on the pill but I’ll stop when you want me to.” She wrapped him in her arms and let him settle against her while she played with his hair.

  “That will be very soon.” He sighed. “Very soon.” Tim relaxed into her.

  *****

  Tim watched her, hours later, as she eased gingerly into a chair at the kitchen table and grinned, sipping his coffee. He’d loved her for what seemed like hours, in every possible position. His cheek was bruised from falling off the couch, her lips were swollen from his hungry kisses, he had claw marks on his back and she bites on her thighs, breasts and bottom. All in all, they looked a mess.

  “Okay baby?” He asked sweetly.

  “No.” She said, frowning at him. “Don’t even look at me you brute.” Tim laughed softly. “I think you broke it.” She grimaced.

  Tim roared, “It’s your fault for being so hot baby, I’m not sorry.” He said with the most wickedly handsome smile she’d ever seen. Kassie felt herself go swoony. He really was beautiful.

  “I know you’re not,” Kassie said. “You will be if I can’t ride later.” She stood slowly and walked to the fridge, pulling out a carafe of orange juice.

  He chuckled behind her and continued to sip his coffee, but she could feel his hungry gaze on her.

  Kassie felt a bubble of happiness and contentment run through her. She had missed him very much and her love burned in her heart. Kassie couldn’t understand why she was so afraid of him. Tim was everything she had dreamed of in a mate. He had loved her, if she was honest with herself, much harder and better than anyone else had loved her in her entire life. She would spend her life showing him how much she loved him too if he let her.

  “I thought you were going to kill me when I said fuck you.” She said over her shoulder.

  His eyebrows rose into his unkempt hair over his brow and he shook his head.

  “I’ve never raised a finger to a woman and believe me Nora could drive you there, but I’m bigger and stronger. I would never be able to cope with myself after harming someone, most of all you.” He said.

  Kassie turned to him and bit her lip. “I’m so sorry I hurt you.” She whispered looking into his sky blue eyes.

  “God, you did.” He said. “It felt like every heartbeat was a heart attack when you told me you didn’t want me.”

  Kassie felt tears come to her eyes. “Oh Timothy.” She said her voice breaking. “I never meant-,”

  He shook his head at her and smiled.

  “I have you back Kassidy. You’re mine, I can promise you that, and I can also promise you that I’m yours. I only want you and if you’re going to force me to wait then I will, I’ll wait.” He said.

  “I’m yours Timothy; I just need to go slow.” She said softly. Tim nodded and sipped his coffee. “It all so fast, loving you like this. It’s never happened before. I’ve never loved a man like this and I’m scared shitless.”

  Kassie was so angry with herself! She didn’t need time. She didn’t need to go slowly. She knew how she felt about him; she knew how much she loved him, so why was she fighting so hard?

  “Do you really love me?” He asked hesitantly as she sipped her orange juice at the counter. Her throat was aching from all of her screaming.

  She walked around the counter to him, putting her glass on the table and slowly, tenderly, straddled him. Tim chuckled at the discomfort he caused but honestly it was more like utter destruction if he could be honest. Kassie punched his chest softly, with a giggle and then cupped his face in her hands. She may doubt herself, but she wouldn’t let him doubt her, not again.

  “Yes.” She said without hesitation, looking into his eyes. “I love you more than anything in this world.”

  He smiled and said simply, “Then you have me.” They kissed tenderly feeling their love for each other course through their kiss.

  Chapter 28

  Tim stayed the night, returning after going to get Griffin. The dog greeted Kassie as if he’d missed her too and then trotted upstairs to his old room. Kassie showered and was finishing some work in the office when Tim went up to bed. He laughed at her when he stopped by and saw her sitting on a heating pad. She threw wadded up paper balls at him until he left.

  She finished her work and talked to Rosie for a little while before she followed him up about two hours later. He was still up when she walked into the room and closed the door.

  “You waited for me.” She smiled taking off her slippers and kicking them under the bed.

  “Yes.” Tim said softly. “We need to talk.” Kassie sat next to him tucking her legs under her and staring into his eyes. Tim saw the fear she held and took her hand in his rubbing his thumb over the back of it lovingly.

  “I love you Kassie. I love you so much more than you will ever understand or realize. I need to know what happened. Why’d you freak out on me like that when I told you that I loved you? Don’t you love me too?”

  “Timmy I’ve been hurt so much that I think, on some level, like I don’t deserve you or love. I want you and I need you. You make me happy and loving you feels like a gift. I get to hold you, and kiss you and just love on you. I didn’t get that with Monroe. I’ve never been able to show people how I felt. I can do that wi
th you, I want to do that with you.” Kassie lowered her head. “But I’m afraid.”

  “Of what?”

  “Of you.” She said. “You feel good Tim, like you’re supposed to be there, be here with me. What if you stop loving me?”

  “I don’t think I can.”

  “It happens.”

  “Not when it feels like this.” He said tenderly. “I’m obsessed with you, infatuated to a point that is insane. I mean I nearly gave Paul a punch when he was talking about how sexy you are. My baby girl loves you, Nora likes you and Griffin is damn near in competition with me for your affections.”

  Kassie giggled.

  “He loses hands down.” Kassie said. They chuckled. “I want to screw everything sometimes and just marry you.” An enlightened look filled his eyes.

  “Why don’t we?”

  “Because it’s irresponsible.” She said. “And right and good.” She put her head on his shoulder and sighed. “Sometimes I think about it. I have money and a career that I love, my own house, everything I own is in my name . . .” She clucked her tongue and looked up at him. “I have you.”

  “You have me.” He agreed.

  “Marriage would be really nice. I still have to meet your folks.”

  “You will.” He smiled. “They’ll be here for the flower society judging and they want to meet this great woman Nat keeps talking about. Dale and Tyler are coming too but they’ll only be here a day.”

  “They’re not going to call me fat or anything, are they?”

  “Not if they like smiling.” Tim said. She giggled squeezing him.

  “You’re possessive.”

  “I really am.”

  “I wake up every night that you sleep over with your arm over me or you holding onto my arm.” She said softly.

  “Your leg stays over me.” He said playful defensive.

  “I know. I’m trying to hump you in my sleep.” She teased.

  “I knew it!” Tim laughed.

  “You’re hot.” Kassie played along. Tim kissed her lips softly. “I threw away my birth control pills.” Kassie whispered under his lips.
