“My head was sore when I woke up this morning, but after a couple of Advil the pain started to dim.” He smiled at me. “Of course I feel so much better after seeing you.”
“Aww, you’re sweet.”
“I’m not sweet…. I’m a guy.”
I burst out laughing. “You’re also an idiot.” I reached up and quickly kissed him on the cheek. “I was about to go for a walk in the park. Do you want to come with me?”
He took hold of my hand and started to pull me towards the stairs. “I’d love to. It’s been a while since I’ve had a hotdog from the stand there.” He grinned, looking like a big kid.
I rolled my eyes at his enthusiasm.
“Lily, where is your sense of adventure?” He held the door to the outside open for me.
I walked past and couldn’t resist rubbing against him. I turned my head and met his eyes, then winked. “My sense of adventure took place last night. Text adventure!”
Michael pulled me to a stop and into his arms.
“Oh.” He was long and hard against my stomach. “I wasn’t expecting that quick a reaction to my comment.”
“I only have to think about you and voila…. rock hard,” he growled.
I licked my lips.
“Oh no. You are not doing that to me. We are going to the park, buying a couple of hotdogs, finding a spot on the grass and we are going to sit cuddling while we watch the world go by…. Now come on, move that ass.” He tugged me behind him to get me moving.
“That sounds good.” My throat felt dry after his speech. He had me all choked up. I wanted to do everything he’d said.
During the seven years I’d been with David, we hadn’t once spent time in the park lounging around. David’s idea of chilling was watching ice hockey, which didn’t bother me because I was a fan as well, but we were with a few thousand people. The park would be busy, but we wouldn’t have any trouble finding a secluded spot – at least I hoped we wouldn’t.
“Lily, you want everything on it?”
“Yes please,” I replied, watching the guy who worked the stand put our hotdogs together.
Michael wrapped his arm around my shoulders and pulled me close. I wrapped my arm around his waist, under his t-shirt. When my hand started to wander inside the back of his jeans, he growled at me. He actually growled at me. The guy with the hotdogs looked at us and obviously decided he was hearing things, so he just finished preparing our food.
“You. Must. Behave.”
“I can’t believe you growled at me…. in public.”
“Thanks,” Michael told the guy as he took the hotdogs and sodas from him.
He directed me towards the lake and the trees that hung low, offering a semblance of privacy. “I was having a hard enough time keeping all my blood above my belt. You shoving your hands into my jeans was sending it south – rapidly.”
I snickered. “You need to learn to control that libido of yours, before it gets you into trouble.”
“I wouldn’t need to control it, if you weren’t so damn sexy.”
“Ha.” I stuck my tongue out at him as we sat down under one of the trees which offered more seclusion than others.
Chapter 30
~~ MICHAEL ~~
Lily was really testing my patience. I’d done nothing, but dream about having her in my arms again. She was the sexiest woman I’d ever met and I knew she was all mine, or would be real soon. After spending most of the morning tidying around, I finally gave in to my need to see her and grabbed my car keys.
When I’d turned up at her apartment, I’d been nervous as hell. I had no idea whether or not David would be there. I was surprised when she opened the door and stepped into me, placing a kiss on my lips for all to see. I’d just about stopped myself from grabbing her and shoving her up against the wall. All I’d wanted was to feel her curves pressed up against mine again.
We were partially hidden by the low-hung branches of the tree that we were lounging under. I was resting against the tree trunk with Lily between my legs resting against my chest. I ate my hotdog with one hand while my other rubbed her belly. I was waiting for her to finish eating before I touched her skin. We couldn’t do what I actually wanted to do under here, but we could play – a little bit.
With a quick drink of our sodas, we wiped our hands on a napkin and placed everything into the bag which I placed to the side to throw in the trash when we made our move.
Lily lay down between my legs with the back of her head resting against my groin – so not a good idea!
“Um, Lily?”
“Yeah.” She grinned up at me. “You want me to move?”
“That would be good,” I croaked out.
She laughed and turned over, settling back down – with her face in my groin, this time.
My head hit the tree behind me. She really was going to kill me. Lily’s hand crept up my thigh and landed right on top of my twitching cock. My breathing started to speed up while she traced the outline of my growing shaft with her finger. Without warning she leaned slightly forward and used her mouth to gently bite me through my jeans. I nearly shot from the ground.
“Fuck!” She looked up at me. “You have….to stop. Seeing you with your head in my lap is such a fuckin’ turn on, I’m not sure I’d be able to stop.”
Lily started to rise above me, straddling my thighs she wiggled around on top of me until I stilled her hips with my hands. “What makes you think I want you to stop?” she teased.
I had no chance to answer because her mouth came down hard on mine. She wrapped her arms around my neck and sucked my tongue into her mouth. My hands tightened on her hips as I arched into her.
She whimpered in my mouth. I let go of her hips and took hold of her head to deepen the kiss even more. She started to rub against my fully engorged cock. If she didn’t stop, I’d be coming with her.
She pulled her mouth away. “Michael….I’m so close. Help me.”
“Hell, you have me damn close.” I put my mouth to her neck, moved one hand to her breast and pinched her hardened nipple between my finger and thumb.
She became frantic in my arms. I felt my orgasm rush up on me. “Fuck, I need a napkin.” I quickly grabbed one, moving her slightly away from me, opened my jeans and shoved it over the tip of my cock. Lily slammed her mouth back down on mine and moved in close against me. The friction of her jean clad pussy rubbing against my naked cock had my orgasm shooting out of me in strong spasms, just as Lily started to come apart in my arms.
“Oh, wow. That was….wow. Not expected,” Lily said, breathless.
I laughed. “That about covers it.”
Lily started to giggle. “Talking about covering it. Did the napkin work?”
“I don’t know. You may have rubbed it off.”
Lily sat up from me, so we both could look down to my body part. I sighed in relief. The napkin had worked. The last thing I wanted was to have to walk around in sticky clothes. “You’re lethal. What happened to our sitting and cuddling in the park with no misbehaving?”
After I cleaned up, I picked up my soda to take a drink, while Lily smirked at me. “We were sat cuddling. It isn’t my fault you wanted to play.”
I nearly choked. “I hate to be the one to inform you, but if you hadn’t decide to rest on my cock, we wouldn’t have been playing in the park.”
“Oh well, parks are for playing in aren’t they? So we didn’t really do anything that we shouldn’t.”
I laughed and pulled her in close. “You’re dangerous.”
“You love what I do to you – don’t you?”
“Hell Lily. You’ll never hear any complaints from me.”
“Good.”
I loved holding her in my arms. All cuddled against me, satisfied from our love making. When I’d accompanied her to the park I’d had no intention of pleasuring us both to the extent that I had. Oh, I’d planned on kissing and cuddling, but not bringing us both to orgasm. That was unexpected to say the least.
When we both recovered, I quickly looked around to make sure no one had been watching and thank god there had been no one in the vicinity. We were lucky – in more ways than one.
I bent my head and placed a kiss on top of hers. “Lily, do you need a lift to the picnic tomorrow? I can come and pick you up if you need me to.”
“Don’t worry about me, Michael. I’ll be there.”
I didn’t like her reply, but it would have to do.
Chapter 31
~~ LILY ~~
All I could think about was the time I’d spent in the park with Michael. After the hot interlude, we’d settled down on the grass and he’d held me close while I slept. Yes, I’d dozed off on him, but who would blame me? I’d been exhausted, having worried about him the previous night, I’d hadn’t slept and then after the orgasm he’d given me. That was – wow.
Michael had let me sleep for a couple of hours, then woke me up with sweet kisses all over my face.
I smiled at the memory – so sweet.
“What has that smile on your face or should I ask who?”
David! I turned and saw him watching me from the doorway into the bedroom.
“So, you decided to come back.”
He walked further into the room and stopped dead when he saw my pile of shoe boxes and suitcases.
“What’s going on, Lily? You moving out?”
I sat on the bed and he walked over to sit beside me. “Yes. Our relationship has been over for a while now and I know you have someone else.”
He looked startled. “Lily, I don’t know what to say. I tried to keep my friendship with her just that, but along the way it turned into something else. I’m sorry. You don’t deserve that from me. You don’t seem too upset though?”
“I’m sad that after all the years we’ve been together it’s come to this. But in all honesty, I actually feel relieved. I’m sorry if you don’t like that, but I can’t help the way I feel.”
“Where will you go? I take it you’re not kicking me out?” he asked, taking hold of my hand.
“I’m looking at an apartment tomorrow so hopefully I’ll move out tomorrow evening.” I sighed in relief.
The time was getting on, so I stood to retrieve my cowboy boots that matched my above-the-knee sundress. I’d left my hair down and added more curl to it. I was planning to leave Michael speechless.
“Lily, would you mind if I still came with you as your guest at the picnic?” I looked at him and frowned. “Our company was sent invitations, but there are two other people the boss wanted to attend. At the time you were my girlfriend, so I told him he could use my invitation as I was going with you anyway.”
“Okay, but do not introduce me as such,” I said. David looked startled with my response, but grabbed his clothes and headed into the bathroom.
While David had a quick shower, I made my way through to the lounge and collapsed onto the sofa. That went a lot better than I thought it would. Perhaps David actually felt the same relief I did. He wasn’t usually so calm about things he wanted. Part of me was sad to realize he didn’t want me anymore. I was feeling sorry for myself, which was ridiculous because I had Michael waiting for me.
Why did I have no shyness with Michael, who I’d known for just over two weeks, but I’d always held myself back with David? It just didn’t make any sense.
The bathroom door opened, so I dragged myself out of the daydream I was in and walked to the sideboard to collect my purse.
I could hardly wait to see Michael again. I’d missed him last night, it was going to be hard at the picnic not being able to be with him. I just hoped we got the chance to dance together.
“You ready to go, Lily?” David asked me as he walked out of the bedroom.
“Yeah, as ready as I’ll ever be.” I followed David from the apartment, down the stairs and out of the building to his car, which he managed to park directly in front.
He opened the door and waited for me to get settled before he shut it then ran around to climb into the drivers’ seat. He didn’t put the key into the ignition. He sat for a few seconds before he turned to look at me. “Lily, are you going to be all right?”
“If all this was sudden, then I would probably answer in the negative, but it wasn’t. So yes, I’ll be all right. I love my new job and I’ve met some good people there, as well as made some new friends. Part of me is sad that what we had is over, but even though you cheated on me, for god knows how long, I will still remember our time together fondly. You’ve been there for all the good and the bad that has happened in my life and I won’t ever forget that, but it’s time for us both to move on.”
We sat there for a minute or two before David finally put the key into the ignition and pulled away.
Chapter 32
~~ MICHAEL ~~
Standing in the shade at my parents ranch, I watched everyone arrive with their partners and children, and it made me feel lonely as hell. I wanted Lily to be with me, standing beside me. Since her very soon-to-be ex had no idea about us or the fact that Lily was moving out, she’d asked me to be patient for one more day. It wasn’t what I wanted to do, but I’d agreed. One more day couldn’t hurt, right?
“Bro, what are you doing hiding over here?” Sebastian questioned.
“I’m not hiding. It’s hot,” I replied, then drained the beer in my hand.
He laughed.
“You two pussy’s having your own party?” Lucien asked as he walked around the corner with Ramon and Ruben.
“No, Michael was hiding out here,” Sebastian announced, then got out of hitting range.
“I was not hiding. I was having a quiet drink before I have to be social.” I took the bottle of beer Ramon offered me and gulped about half of the bottle down.
“Are there going to be any hot chicks here today?” Sebastian asked.
“They’re all married,” I replied, causing Ruben to choke on his beer.
“Not all are married. Wait until you meet his assistant.” I was going to kill Ruben.
Sebastian paused mid-drink and looked at me. “Well Michael, you’ve been keeping a secret,” he looked to Ruben, “how hot?”
He looked at me then back to Sebastian. “Curves, lots of them. Long, dark, curly hair and boobs to fill….”
“You better stop right there,” I told Ruben when I actually felt like using my fist.
“It would seem that the hot assistant is already spoken for,” Lucien commented.
“If you’d seen them in the car after Michael’s accident, you’d have no doubt,” then he grinned. “In fact, I’d ask him what they got up to while locked in the hospital room.”
Lucien choked on his beer, while Ramon and Sebastian just stood looking at me. Fuck.
“What?” I asked. There was no way I planned to get into a discussion with my brothers about Lily.
“You’ve been on your own for six years. You’ve finally hooked up with someone and you don’t plan on telling us, is that right?” Lucien asked.
I put my beer to my mouth and froze. Lily was walking in my direction, on her own, and she looked sexy as hell. The sun was behind her, which made her dress transparent. She took my breath away.
“Who the fuck is that?” I came back to my senses at Sebastian’s comment and realized all four of my brothers were standing with me, staring at her. Lily looked up and stopped when she saw the lot of us just standing there, probably with our tongues down to our knees.
“Michael, don’t just stand there, go and claim your girl.” My mother’s words brought me back to my senses.
“She’s mine. You four can keep your hands to yourselves,” I growled out.
As I started to walk towards Lily her whole face lit up. I heard my mother sigh behind me and a few snickers, not to mention Sebastian, who made a comment under his breath.
Before I wrapped Lily up in my arms, I quickly looked around for David and saw him disappear around the barn with his boss’s daughter.
Standing in front of her, I took her
face into my hands. “You’re stunning. Hell, I think I’m going to have to beat my brothers up for looking at you and drooling!” I bent down and kissed her gently on the lips. “I’ve missed you.”
She placed her hands on my hips and threaded her fingers through the belt loops on my jeans, then pulled me close, before she sealed her lips to mine.
As soon as our mouths touched, I slipped my tongue inside and fused it with hers. Our bodies started to melt together when I heard more than one throat being cleared behind me. With reluctance, I pulled my mouth from Lily’s and met her eyes. She licked her lips, which dragged a groan out of me.
“You’re going to kill me today, you know that?” I breathed heavily and dreaded having to introduce her to my brothers.
A quick glance over my shoulder confirmed what I already knew. They were standing where I’d left them, but in a line, to meet my woman.
Lily followed my gaze and started to laugh. “Come on, introduce me to your other two brothers.”
“Do I have to?” God, could I sound any more pathetic. CEO here, not idiot!
Lily slipped her hand into mine and gave a slight tug to get me moving. “I told David I’m moving out and about the apartment I plan on looking at tomorrow. He seemed…. okay I guess. Which was a relief.”
“About the apartment….”
“Hey, get over here and share,” Sebastian shouted.
Lily laughed and walked towards my mother, who held her arms out to her. “Lily, it’s so good to see you again.”
“It’s good to see you again too, Pippa.” My mother pulled away and threaded her arm through Lily’s to introduce her to my brothers. Why she needed to be introduced to those idiots was beyond me.
“Lily, you already know Ruben and Ramon, so this here is Sebastian, you may want to stay away from him.”
As Ruben roared with laughter, he received a dirty look from our mother. She then moved on to Lucien.
Because of his accident, Lucien was badly scarred, from the tips of his fingers, up the back of his right arm, along the back of his shoulder and part of his side and back. I was nervous for her to meet him because he would test her and if she failed he’d be cold, which would probably upset her, and then I’d have to hit him.
