“How I wish that I was fifteen years younger,” she admits, sadly. “I want everything with you as well, but—”
“No buts. We’re moving fast, I know this, but once I know what I want, I don’t change my mind. I’ve caught you Rae. So I hope you never have plans to escape.” I kiss her worried lips, and ask, “Breakfast?” while raising a brow. It lightens the mood and brings a smile back to her beautiful face. “Tell me what you want and I’ll make it,” I say giving her a large smile.
“You’re going to cook for me?” she asks, rising above me and when she straddles my thighs, I loose my train of thought.
“Mmm,” I mumble and grabbing her hips, I rub her back and forth. “That feels good.”
“It does.” She drops her hands to my chest and rubs my nipples as my hips arch. “But, breakfast and then I want to do something with you.”
I wiggle my eyebrows. “I’m game.”
She laughs, climbing from my lap, glancing down her eyes widen. “Wow, that bad boy must be painful.” She nibbles on her lips.
Wincing when I climb to my feet, I shove my hand inside my shorts and after a quick stroke, shove the waistband over the head to keep him against my body. I do all this with my eyes on Rae who is so focused on me that she doesn't realize I’m watching her. Which is why I don’t spot her hand reaching out, but I get a jolt of lust when the tip of her finger rubs between the slit at the head of my dick.
“I think we need to take care of this before breakfast.” She licks her lips. “My mouth would happily help out.” She grins and reaches to shove my pants down.
“Not yet. Let’s eat breakfast, then I’m going to eat you, and then we’re going to go outside of these walls and do something together.” I smile. “In that order.” I wink before giving her a quick kiss on the lips. Taking her hand, I tug her into the kitchen, motioning for her to sit at the kitchen table before I start to rummage through her pantry and fridge. I pull out eggs, peppers, mushrooms, milk, and tomatoes. “Omelets and toast.”
“Sounds good to me,” she admits seconds before her stomach lets out a loud growl of hunger.
I chuckle at the sound but carry on with our breakfast. It feels good being here in her home, just the two of us the way we are. It feels like I’m home, hopefully soon it will be my home too. However, for now those thoughts will stay just that. I’ve already said more than I’d intended and the last thing I want to do is frighten her by becoming too intense. Something tells me she sees the real me though, and that she knows exactly how much she means to me. I’ve told her, but for now, while my previous words run around in her head, I’m just going to show her how much she needs me around permanently.
Flipping the omelets, I feel Rae behind me seconds before her arms wrap around my waist and she presses into my back. She kisses along my spine before she settles her warm cheek against me. “They smell good.”
“Until I moved back home, I lived alone in New York for five years, so I had plenty of experience. Plus Mom made Emelia, Kasey, and I, take lessons from her. She also taught the others before us, so that we would know our way around the kitchen.” I turn the burners off and flip the omelets out onto the waiting plates before I turn in her arms. I tip her face up to mine and place a gentle kiss on her lips. “So, you now know that I can share in the cooking.” I smile and nudge her to sit at the table.
After buttering the toast, I join her and we eat in silence.
Her table is a small square affair so it’s with ease that my legs enclose hers. Rae glances up and smirking, moves a leg so that her foot caresses up my leg. Her foot ventures closer and closer to the family jewels, hardening my dick.
Pushing my plate away, I settle back in the chair and give her open access. Her toes wiggle over my balls and my eyes drift closed as a rumble builds in my chest.
“You look so hot when you’re aroused,” Rae admits. “It makes me wet.”
My eyes pop open at her words and her eyes narrow as she swirls her tongue around her lips. I drop my hand inside my shorts and shove the waistband beneath my balls so that my dick now has freedom. My fist feels good wrapped around my flesh especially when I rub over the head that’s leaking pre-ejaculate. I pump my fist harder when I watch Rae and see her hard, cherry nipples poking through her silk shirt.
“I have an idea,” Rae suggests, dropping beneath the table. Seconds later her head dips into my lap and I feel her mouth on my balls and then she says, “Feed your cock to me.”
“Jesus fuck!” My legs quiver, but I do as she asks. Her warm, wet mouth feels amazing as she sucks me. Pre-ejaculate trickles into her mouth, as my lust for her knows no bounds. Except this time, I want and need more.
Tugging my flesh free, I grit my teeth praying like hell that I don’t come as I shove the chair away. I hold my hand out for Rae and the minute our fingers intertwine, I yank her to me and up into my arms where I seal our mouths together. I don’t ever want away from this delicious woman.
So lost in the kiss it’s only when I feel her pushing down on my cock that I realize I’m entering her sweet pussy. The friction of her walls rippling against my shaft nearly brings me to my knees as I blindly carry her through to the bedroom.
I drop backwards onto the bed, nearly shooting my load when Rae completely encases me. I close my eyes and breathing deeply, I lift Rae free from my shaft and flip her around. I place her knees on each side of my head and gently smack her ass.
As expected she shoots up in surprise, which only brings her ass closer to my mouth. I chuckle and gripping her hips, shove my tongue between her wet pussy lips. She’s heavily aroused and tries to rub herself on my mouth, but I’m taking my time. She needs savoring.
Except when she takes hold of my dick and fists it toward the root, she holds there and quickly sucks me like a Popsicle. I can’t catch my breath as my belly quivers with arousal. She lets up, so I lick around her sex, roaring against her when she takes my cock to the back of her throat.
With all my senses on overload at having her swallowing my cock and her wet pussy in my face, I’m seconds from coming.
Gasping for breath, I insert my finger into her snug channel while my hips rock up into the warm suction of her mouth. The minute my tongue zooms in on her little clit, I suckle on her swollen flesh.
It’s when she starts to moan around my dick that my balls detonate and I explode, grunting through waves of intense pleasure. My release splashes down her throat while hers floods my face. I pant and grunt as liquid heat shoots out of my dick while I continue to lap between her thighs.
Rae’s hold on my quivering flesh causes more release to seep free as she sucks and licks me clean, and when her head drops into my lap, total exhaustion claims her.
I smack her ass once more before I help her turn. “You wiped me out.”
“Sex with you,” she hovers over my mouth, her legs spread over my hips, “is the most perfect, all consuming, most fulfilling, that I’ve ever had.” Her brows draw together as she searches my gaze for something, and I think she finds whatever it is, when she continues, “It isn’t just sex though, is it?”
“It’s a whole lot more,” I assure her.
“Even when we get down and dirty, it’s still not just sex.”
“Every time I’m with you, I’m loving you, Rae.” I clasp her ass to my groin. “That’s why it’s hot, sweaty, raw, and so damn good. Because I love you.” I tug her down and the minute our mouths touch, I’m lost.
RAE
“So what are we going to do now?” Diego asks, nuzzling my neck from behind while I gaze out of the kitchen window.
Smiling, I raise a hand and cup his warm cheek. “I want to go out.” I turn into his arms. “Let’s go for a drive and find somewhere to have lunch.” I place a lingering kiss to his lips and hold his gaze. “Andie isn’t due back until later this afternoon, so we have time. You game?” I ask with my heart so full of love for this incredible man.
He dips his head and sweeps his lips over mine. “Grab
a jacket.”
Turning, he smacks me on the ass, which I’m beginning to realize he enjoys, and I grab the jacket from the back of a kitchen chair. Collecting my purse, keys, and cell on the way out of the door, I lock up and let Diego slide his fingers through mine.
He lifts me into his truck with a lingering caress over my thighs, as he makes sure I’m settled before he joins me.
My handsome man wears his well-worn jeans and the shirt he’s wearing should be banned because I’m sure if anyone approaches him to ask about ‘saving water and showering with him’ as his shirt says, that I’ll attack. He laughed when I saw his shirt while I rolled my eyes.
When I’m with him I can’t see why I was so determined to keep my distance. I know I was in a bad marriage with a younger man a long time ago, but Diego is nothing like he was. Diego is strong and has an amazing relationship with his family. His mom might not like me but she raised him well, and for that I can’t fault her.
When we’re apart it causes doubts to enter my mind. Our age will always be between us, but my biggest fear now that I’ve let my heart get involved is that he’ll eventually listen to his parents’ and maybe a sibling or two. But seeing the happiness on his face, knowing that it’s me that’s put it there, makes me feel guilty that I ever doubted him.
“Hey,” he rubs my thigh with his work-roughened hands, sending goose bumps over me, “where’d you go?”
“Not that far away.” I offer him a wry smile while I interlace our fingers together on my thigh. “Will we really be able to share a room in Vegas without everyone knowing?”
He glances at me before concentrating on the road. “If we want it, then we’ll do it.”
“I might sit down with Andie and talk to her before we leave. I don’t like not being honest with her. In the end it will hurt her all the more because I kept my relationship with you a secret. I hate everything being up in the air. I just want a normal relationship with my…boyfriend.” I smile with delight when I see the surprise and happiness on Diego’s face at my words. Right at this moment my heart feels so full that it could burst with the love I have for this man.
Quickly pulling over to the side of the road, Diego cups the back of my head and brings me in for a slow delicious kiss. “I love,” he whispers between kisses, “hearing boyfriend on your lips.” He kisses me and trails a path down my neck. “I just love you.” He holds my gaze and I believe that he’s speaking to me from the heart.
Tears hover on my lashes, but sit unshed as I whisper against his lips, “I love you, Diego.” My heart travels to his heart and I press against him. “Please don’t hurt me.”
“Never.” He pulls me close for one more kiss before we straighten. “We better get moving before we’re reported for indecent exposure.”
“I’ve never been arrested before,” I comment, and start laughing. “Not that I want to get arrested now. I mean, your mom already dislikes me so that probably wouldn’t go down too well.”
Diego pauses and with a sigh he gets us back on the road. “I’m sorry, Rae. I honestly don’t know what to say to make this right. I hate how she treats you, and I hoped by talking to her that she’d come around but she’s being stubborn.”
“It’s my age, Diego.” I turn and gaze out of the window. “There isn’t anything I can do about that.”
His palm lands on my thigh and it stays there until he pulls up outside a rustic looking steak house. I raise a brow in question and Diego beams at me. “This is the place that I come to when I need an escape from everything and everyone. Kasey knows I come here, and now you do. You’ll love it.” He pats my leg and jumps out of the truck.
Opening my door, he lifts me out and wraps an arm around my shoulders. “They do the best food here. Not just steak as advertised. You’ll see,” he says with excitement lacing each word.
He’s so damn cute when he’s excited, and it’s obvious how much he wants me to love this place as much as he does.
Walking through the doors, Diego holds my hand securely in his and his smile widens when a grandmotherly type of woman dashes over to him. Her grey hair is pinned to the back of her head, and her tanned face is wrinkled with happiness.
He wraps her up into a tight embrace before he turns her to face me. “Anna, I’d like you to meet, Rae.”
Anna flutters with her hands in front of her ample chest and pulls me in close. “You make my Diego a happy man.” She cups my face. “He’s been sad for too long.”
My eyes reach for Diego’s and he’s almost embarrassed at Anna’s words. The intense look on his face brings tears to my eyes. “He makes me happy as well.” A smile trembles on my lips.
She pats my cheek. “He glows.” Grabbing my arm, Anna pulls me between tables and chairs, bellowing, “Matthew.”
Seconds later a man of similar age to Anna appears. He’s thin and wiry and looks Mexican. His dark grey hair is long and fastened at the nape of his neck with a leather tie.
“Come meet Diego’s girl.” She beams and there’s a knowing glint in her eyes that makes me laugh. “Isn’t she pretty?” Now it’s my turn to blush at her words.
I hear Diego chuckling behind me as Matthew kisses me on each cheek. “You are very pretty.” He then disappears back through a door, which I presume to be the kitchen.
Diego slips his arm around my shoulders and leaning in he kisses the top of my head.
Anna continues to beam as she watches us. “Come.” She ushers us to a neatly set table with red and white checked linen, and a lovely bunch of wildflowers in the centre of the table finish the homemade look.
“This is real pretty,” I observe and get a gentle pat to my shoulder as I take a seat.
“I’m glad you like it. Our best table.” Anna hovers around Diego and after he’s said a few words to her in Spanish, she dashes off.
Diego rests his elbows on the table so I do the same and leaning forward I kiss his waiting lips. “Thank you for bringing me here,” I whisper. “I love it already.” Settling back into the chair, I feel happier than I remember being in such a long time.
Happy and free.
“I’m glad.” Diego has a wistful smile on his beautiful lips. “Anna has wanted to meet you for a while now.”
“How long is a while?” I ask, my curiosity getting the better of me.
“She got me talking about you from the moment I first saw you when I thought you belonged to Aiden,” he says. “It had me in knots at first because I thought I was falling for my brothers girl no matter how much you and Aiden said you weren’t together.”
I reach out and grasp his hands. “You irritated me at first with your sexy smile and you were always walking around with either shorts or sweatpants on and nothing else, including underwear. God I couldn’t get you out of my head.” I offer him a shy smile. “Once or twice I caught you watching me through the reflection on a window and my heart would stop.”
Diego wiggles his eyebrows. “So, you noticed I didn’t wear underwear.”
I chuckle, shaking my head. “Is that all you heard from what I just said?”
“Hell no!” He shakes his head. “But I like hearing that you noticed my undressed state.”
I narrow my eyes as I suddenly get the feeling I know exactly what he did. “You walked around like that for my benefit…didn’t you?”
His grin widens. “Maybe,” he chuckles behind the glass of water he holds.
Clearing his throat, Diego sits straight, seconds later Anna returns with a large platter of food. “A bit of everything.” She places it on the table and adds, “We want you to keep coming back with handsome Diego.” She blushes and runs off.
I cock a brow, “I think you have an admirer.”
He shakes his head but a smile graces his lips as he reaches out for a Buffalo wing. “She mothers me,” he admits, a sadness underlying his words. “It’s nice and makes me happy that she accepts you.” He takes my hand and sucks the sauce from my finger, meeting my gaze. “I’d already told them abou
t you and why we weren’t together. She told me I was stupid for not going after what my heart and soul wanted.”
“I wanted you, Diego. I still do.”
He continues to hold my hand while he licks another finger. “You have me.” After placing a gentle kiss to the palm of my hand, he closes my fingers over it. “You’ve captured my heart the way you’ve just captured my kiss.”
“Oh…I don’t think anyone has seen me as tearful as you have. That was beautiful. I love you so much.”
“If my friends saw me now they’d call me pussy whipped. But I wouldn’t give a shit about what they thought, because you’re the only one who counts.”
“Okay,” I sob and grab a napkin, “I give up.” My tears run down my cheeks while Diego gives me time to pull myself together. “I never thought that you’d be so damn romantic. It makes my heart sore but in a good way.”
“I have more waiting where they came from.” He winks.
“Before I really am in floods of tears tell me about what you’re doing now. I mean with the forestry.”
“Eat more before I eat it all.” He fills my plate as I wait. “You know why I left New York,” he glances at me, nodding, “well, when I moved back here a friend that I went to school with had just signed up with the forestry fire department. It’s made up of voluntary emergency personnel so I figured it was a good idea and since I had nothing much to do around the farm. It’s hard, exhausting work, but worth every minute of my time. When I’m not out fighting forest fires, I’m working on the family farm, riding, mucking out stalls.” He laughs. “I like being busy and I have the balance that I need with both jobs. One paid, one unpaid. But I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
“You’re a good man Diego De La Fuente.” The huskiness in my tone has Diego’s eyes darkening with desire.
“What time is Andie due back?” he asks, glancing at his watch.
“Five.”
