Redemption: Lily's Surrender

by Liz Andrews

“It is that easy,” she countered quickly. “You give up control, let them make a mess of their own lives all by themselves, and get to punish and love me for the rest of our lives.”

  Marc gathered her in his arms, enjoying the feel of Lily’s body pressing against him. He was going to let her tempt him just a bit longer. He knew before coming over here today that he would most likely be giving up the ghost on fifteen years of revenge. It just wasn’t as fun anymore when you got shot and kidnapped.

  Plus he was ready for it to be over as well. Lily had made that possible. The love he felt for her was all encompassing, and really didn’t give him much time to plan evil plots.

  “Sounds like a win-win situation to me. But can I gloat when they fuck up and laugh maniacally when they come begging me for help?”

  Lily leaned back and looked at him quizzically before breaking into a huge smile. “Of course you can, baby.” She hugged him tightly before leading him into the bedroom.

  Sitting on the bed, Marc pulled Lily towards him. “You know we still have a little matter of your punishment to attend to.” Marc gripped his hand in her hip, squeezing her full cheek. “I want you out of these pants and across my lap.”

  “I don’t remember any punishments.”

  “Let me refresh your memory. One for refusing to get in the car the day of the grand reopening and the other for teasing me,” he said as he stroked her lightly rounded bottom. “But I’m willing to overlook them just this once.”

  “Gee, thanks,” Lily muttered crossly.

  Raising a brow, Marc interrupted her. “Marc Says.”

  Lily muttered under her breath as she stood and did as he requested, dropping across his lap with a pout on her pretty lips. Marc had to bite back a chuckle at her wanton display of temper. It was amusing but something they would have to work on. Good thing they had the rest of their lives.

  Bringing his hand down sharply over her upturned cheeks. “And since I’m being so nice, I think you owe me a thank you.”

  Lily turned to look at him with a frown. “Hey, I saved your life.

  Raising a brow, Marc delivered another smack, causing her to jerk on his lap. “And I said thank you, brat. Now it’s your turn.”

  When Lily just continued to stare, Marc slapped her cheeks again. He continued administering her spanking, until Lily surrendered, crying out his name in passion.

  “Yes?” he inquired teasingly.

  “Thank you. Thank you. Thank you,” she shouted out, thrashing on his lap.

  Marc raised his hand from her warm bottom and looked down into her passion-filled eyes. Running his tingling hand between her legs, Marc smiled when he felt her moist pussy, slick from her excitement. “Dirty girl,” he murmured, lovingly caressing her mound.

  Arching up into his hand, Lily slowly smiled. “And you wouldn’t have me any other way.”

  Feathering his fingers between her moist lips, Marc zoned in on her erect bud, squeezing it gently between his fingers. Lily moaned, gripping her nails into his thighs.

  “I’ve missed this.” Marc groaned, his own arousal heightening from the touch of her. Coating his fingers with her dew, Marc slipped them between her cheeks to her awaiting virgin hole.

  Lily shifted restlessly on his lap, as if in anticipation of his impending foray. Marc stroked along her crease, coating her with her own sweet nectar. Rubbing tiny circles around her hole, he slipped the tip of his finger inside.

  “Is this how you like it?” Marc ran his finger around her silken walls.

  “Oh, God, it’s not enough,” Lily cried, bucking against his invading digit.

  Marc gritted his teeth at her responsiveness. Knowing how much she wanted him and what he did to her made it all the better. Never in a million years would he have guessed at what lay beneath her cool exterior. He was only glad he’d decided to find out.

  “Shhh, baby, I’ll give you all you need.” Marc gently removed his finger and rummaged around in the bedside table, finding the lube he’d left there. Coating his fingers, he gently covered her puckered rosette. He was able to slip one finger easily inside and carefully added a second, thrusting them back and forth.

  Lily was digging her nails into the pillows on the bed, alternately grinding her pussy against his leg and thrusting her ass back against his probing fingers. She was whimpering with need.

  “Tell me what you want,” Marc urged, pushing her further by adding another finger.

  “You know what I want,” Lily sobbed.

  Pulling his fingers from her ass, Marc slapped her bottom soundly. “No backing down. You tell me.”

  “Fuck me, Marc, fuck my ass. Please.”

  “I plan to, Goldie, I plan to.” Marc gently moved Lily off his lap and made her kneel in the middle of the bed. Going back to the bedside table he found the vibrator and brought it to her. “I want you to use this on yourself as I fuck your sweet ass.”

  Lily circled her clit with the vibrator before rubbing it along her slit. Grabbing the lube, Marc coated his cock with the gelled substance before once again preparing her ass.

  Marc gently rubbed his cock around the outside of her ass, easing it in a little at a time. Lily tensed for a moment before relaxing slightly, allowing him to ease the head in her entrance. Moving just inches at a time, Marc slowly slid in, gritting his teeth as he fought against his need to push all the way in. God, she was tight. So fucking tight. Marc eased back, bracing his good hand on her hip. As he pushed forward again, Lily moaned with pleasure.

  “Are you okay, baby?” Marc eased back, noticing that she was still rubbing the vibrator back and forth.

  Tossing her hair over her shoulder like a mare in heat, Lily moaned to him, “In. Go all the way in.”

  The desire on her face was Marc’s undoing. Still going as slow as he humanly could, Marc pressed forward gradually until he pressed past the tight ring and into her warm passage within. Lily’s cry of pleasure spilled throughout the room.

  God, she was so tight that he groaned as her warm tunnel surrounded his cock. Releasing her hip, Marc reached around her and grabbed her hand, forcing her to hold the vibrator to her clit. “No more teasing. Hold this to your clit and don’t let go.”

  Lily moaned, but did as he ordered, holding the vibrator tight to her clit. Pulling until only the tip remained, Marc thrust home again, pausing when Lily groaned. “Am I hurting you?”

  “Yes,” she moaned, pushing back on to him. “Do it again.”

  “Gladly,” Marc promised as he pushed down on her back, forcing Lily to lay her chest on the bed and keep her ass up in the air. Biting his nails into her hip, Marc began to pump into her ass with shallow thrusts, taking care not to push too far in, until her body could adjust to his cock.

  When he felt as if Lily was finally meeting him thrust for thrust, Marc picked up his pace, sinking more of his cock into her snug depth.

  “More, please … more.”

  Marc shivered at the need in her voice, concentrating hard on not coming before it was time. But it was damn hard; her soft little guttural moans were damn near driving him insane. “What do you want, baby?”

  “You. I want you to fuck me.”

  “Harder or faster?” he teased, through clenched teeth. Marc didn’t know how much longer he would be able to hold out. Just thinking of coming in her ass was making his balls tingle.

  “Both.” Lily’s voice shook with need. The same need driving him out of his mind.

  “Such a greedy little baby.” Thrusting faster, Marc released her hip, and brought his hand down on the curve of her ass.

  “Ohhh …” Lily moaned low in her throat, pushing her ass back for his dick and hand, begging for more. And Marc gladly delivered both.

  Spanking her ass again, Marc rained his palm down on her cheeks, alternating his strokes to coincide with his thrusts. Lily’s moans of pleasure poured throughout the room as he fucked her how he’d only dared dream of before. Fierce and free. She was his. She would always be his, and he now possesse
d her entire body.

  With that thought in mind, Marc pumped faster into her wanton body. Digging his fingers into her side, he held onto her powering hips, and fucked her hard and fast. Marc knew he was probably going over the line with someone who was too new with backdoor loving, but he couldn’t stop himself. He wanted Lily too much. And from the sounds she was emitting, Lily felt the same way.

  “Yes … Marc … yes, fuck me,” she cried, her voice taking on a shriller tone, close to that of the humming toy vibrating between her legs.

  “Are ready to come, baby?”

  “Yes, God, yes.”

  “Then come,” he groaned, feeling his cock swell as his own orgasm overtook him, forcing Marc over the edge as he came, pouring his hot seed into her waiting ass.

  Their joint moans of pleasure filled the room. Marc braced his hand on her hip to keep himself from pounding Lily into the mattress. His orgasm was so intense he thought he was about to pass out.

  “Good Lord, woman, I think you’re trying to kill me.” Sliding his softened cock out of her ass, Marc dropped back on his heels, taking a deep breath. He felt lightheaded, and for some strange reason, extremely hungry.

  “Kill you.” Dropping completely down on the bed, Lily turned on her side and smiled. “You were the one hammering away in my ass. I think I was the one who was in danger of dying here, buddy.”

  Arching a brow, Marc lay down next to her, amused by her take of the situation. “And you liked every second of it.”

  “Loved it.” Wincing a bit, Lily moved her head until it was pillowed on his good shoulder, and began to lightly caress his chest. “I just have one question for you.”

  “Yes?”

  “When is it my turn to play ‘Lily Says’?”

  “When Hell freezes over.”

  Looking up at him with a devilish look in her big blue eyes, Lily replied, “I’ll see what I can do about that.”

  Epilogue

  Lily flitted around the tent, arranging and rearranging the items on the tables. The warm spring breezes made it a perfect day for an outdoor party. She was praying everything would go flawlessly.

  Her family and Marc had lived with a kind of unspoken truce over the last few months. Her brothers were especially difficult when she’d moved in with Marc. It had taken the combined efforts of herself, Evelyn, Samantha, and Helen to get them to eventually come around. They still were not happy about the arrangement, but it was no longer an armed combat situation.

  “Why don’t you let the caterers deal with this?”

  Lily turned, smiling at Marc’s voice. She still couldn’t believe how happy she was. Marc had been true to his word and given up his quest for vengeance. Oh, it hadn’t been a simple task. Lily constantly kept him in check. But she was glad to do it and over time he’d gradually gotten less and less involved in his reports on the triumvirate. That was when Lily accepted his proposal. They planned to announce their engagement at the party today.

  “Because I want to do it. I like the control.” She wiggled her eyebrows at him, subtly reminding him that he’d not yet given up his control over her and allowed her to play ‘Lily Says.’

  Marc chuckled as he wrapped his arms around her. “You’re never going to get a turn.”

  Lily wrinkled her nose in disgruntlement. “You’ll see. You shouldn’t doubt me.”

  Marc’s chuckled turned into a bellow. “Give it up, Lily, you’re never going to get to play Lily Says. On the other hand, if you want to play ‘Marc Says,’ I’m available at any time.”

  Before Lily could think of a smart-ass retort, and possibly get a bottom warming punishment, she was interrupted by Griffin walking down the steps from the house and out to where they stood at the edge of the tent set up in the backyard.

  “Don’t tell me that was laughter I heard?” Griffin joked. “The Marc I know would never smile or laugh. Lily, have you got him whipped?” Lily smiled, and, disengaging herself from Marc’s arms gave Griffin a big hug and kiss on the cheek. “I’m so glad you made it.”

  “Hey, first my best friend insults me and then my woman deserts me. Where’s the love?” Marc shook Griffin’s hand. “Thanks for coming, man. I need all the allies I can get today.”

  “I’ll let you boys play. I want to check on things in the kitchen.” Lily smiled as Griffin and Marc walked over to the bar to get a drink and she headed into the house.

  Griffin was finally over his issues after the whole kidnapping incident. He was changing the focus of Marc’s security from bodyguards to electronics. There were still some guards, but they no longer needed to have armed guards following them around day and night.

  Lily checked with the caterers in the kitchen but they had everything in order. There was no way she could have done it all herself, even though she’d briefly contemplated it. Marc had invited half the town. Of course half the town now worked for him, since he’d reopened the Mill. In addition to Griffin and her whole family, Marc had invited all of his top executives.

  Lily heard the doorbell and hurried to the door. Her family was supposed to get here early. Opening the door she found Logan, and Evelyn and her parents standing on the stoop. Evelyn lingered in the atrium after she shooed Logan and the Grays out to the backyard.

  In a conspiratorial whisper Lily asked, “So, is everything on track?”

  “Operation ‘Lily Says’ is a go,” Evelyn answered with a giggle.

  They were interrupted by more arriving guests and Lily got caught up in playing hostess. She wasn’t able to talk to Samantha when she arrived with Steven, but as they walked outside Samantha turned and gave her a quick thumbs up signal.

  *

  During dinner Marc continued to taunt and tease her about playing ‘Marc Says’ and the new handcuffs he’d bought for them to play with. Lily was restless with anticipation by the time dinner was over. As the caterers took the dessert dishes away he leaned over and whispered in her ear. “Are you ready, baby?”

  Lily nodded and watched as Marc stood to make a toast. She looked over the crowd, seeing her family sitting together at a table. Lily was amazed with the feelings of love and warmth that swept over her knowing her family was all together. Yes, there was a small twinge of regret that her father wasn’t there, but Lily had accepted the fact her father had been gone from their family for a long time now.

  Steven and Samantha were finalizing plans for their wedding. Lily was excited they’d been able to work out their problems and gotten back together. Logan and Evelyn had recently learned they were expecting a baby. Lily was happy that both she and her mom had reconciled with Logan. And her mom. She certainly didn’t resemble the same woman she was a year ago. Lily was pleased her mom had really started to blossom.

  Lily brought her attention back to Marc. “Ladies and gentlemen, I want to thank everyone for coming today. Returning to River Bend has turned out to be a major event in my life. But most importantly I am pleased to be back in River Bend because of one special woman, Lily Weller.”

  Taking her hand, Marc helped her to her feet. “You are all witnesses here today. Lily has agreed to become my wife.”

  The crowd erupted in applause. Lily glanced over at her family again and noticed Evelyn and Samantha whispering to Logan and Steven. She hoped that they weren’t going to cause any trouble. At that moment Marc swept her into his arms and Lily forgot about her brothers for a while.

  “Congratulations, peanut. I hope you’re very happy.” Steven had snuck up behind her and pulled her out of Marc’s arms to give her a hug.

  “Oh, she’ll be happy, all right. I know Gossnor will make sure of it.” Logan stared pointedly at Marc, and Lily knew he was letting Marc know that if she wasn’t happy Logan would be happy to do something about it.

  Marc was startled when Helen reached up and kissed him briefly on the cheek. “Welcome to the family, Marc.” Lily was almost brought to tears when Marc hugged her mom back. Evelyn and Samantha both congratulated Marc and gave Lily a big hug. Then it was just S
teven and Logan facing Marc. If Lily thought Marc was surprised when her mom kissed him he was shocked when first Steven and then Logan held out their hands. “Welcome to the family, Marc.” Steven shook his hand. “Yeah, welcome.” Logan proceeded to do the same. Lily smiled as her family spoke to Marc for a few minutes longer before wandering off to enjoy the music and after dinner dancing.

  Walking up to him, Lily slipped her arms around Marc’s neck, tugging him down to her. “Looks like hell is freezing over.”

  “What are you talking about?”

  “Don’t you remember I once complained that I wished for everyone to get along and enjoy a good meal? You responded that it was as likely as hell as freezing over.”

  “So?” Marc had a slightly worried look on his face.

  “We enjoyed a good meal and everyone got along. Looks like hell is freezing over,” she repeated.

  “You cheated.” Lily could tell by the look on his face he realized she’d planned the whole thing with Evelyn and Samantha. “And cheaters never win. I’m going to tan your hide.”

  “It’s going to be kinda hard to tan anything with your hands cuffed above your head,” Lily mused with a twinkle in her eye.

  “Brat,” Marc growled, reaching for her. Lily slipped out of his grasp and danced away from him. “You have to catch me first.”

  “I already did.” At Marc’s words, Lily rushed into his arms, because he was right. He had captured her, body and soul. Lily surrendered to his embraced, home at last.
