Page 11 of Ryder

“Oh, fuck, I’m coming.” I let the ecstasy of my own release wash through me as her pussy clamped onto my dick and wouldn’t let go. I shot my load deep into her, bathing her womb, and I stayed lodged in her until she wiggled and tried to get away. I wasn’t having it though. I scraped my teeth over her earlobe before tugging it. “You’re mine.”

She shivered but didn’t move from me. Resting my chin on her shoulder my fingers drew calming circles on her stomach. “So, you came to see me?”

She giggled and the sound was so sweet that I didn’t even mind that my dick was soft and slid out of her. I had wanted to stay inside of her. I loved the feeling of her warmth surrounding me.

“Yeah, I came to talk to you. Ha, that went well.”

Stopping my rubbing, I cuddled her and kissed her back up to her neck and hovered over her ear. “This is much better than talking.”

She groaned and wiggled against me. “All sensible thought leaves when I’m with you.” She sighed. “I should regret what we just did, err, now and before, but I can’t because I feel so damn good. If I wasn’t so tired and totally sated, I’d get out of bed and go home and come back when I don’t feel, so, so, well, mushy towards you.”

Clutching her tighter so she couldn’t get away I bit down on her neck. “No. You’re not leaving me. You’re staying here now. This is your home too.”

Her head shook against the pillow, her hair whipped at me. “No. This isn’t my home. I have to be home for my brother.”

“No you don’t. He’s been told you’ll be here. Actually, he should be here by now. He’s probably downstairs with Oakley. One of the bodyguards will take him to school tomorrow too, so you’ll get to sleep in.”

“Mmmm, sleep in.” Divinity relaxed for a moment, then shot up almost head-butting me and straining in my embrace. “What! Are you an idiot? Arron can’t be with Oakley.” She tried again to get away, but I wasn’t letting her go.

“Don’t worry. I can promise that Oakley will be on his best behavior. He promised Mum, and if he didn’t listen to our mother, Aunt Gillian would get him and she’s terrifying.”

“My brother is scared of neither of those women.”

I shivered as I thought of her brother defying Aunt Gillian. “Oh trust me when I say, you will be, when you get to know them. My mum is quiet but deadly when she strikes at a foe, but she’s nothing, and I mean nothing, compared to my Aunt Gillian.”

The snort from Divinity was very unladylike. She squirmed until she turned and I allowed it. She faced me, slid up and rested on her elbow as she raised a brow. “What makes you think I’ll be around to get to know either women?”

“Oh vixen, if you can’t resist me coming from the shower when you’ve barely known me for a week, there is no way you’ll resist me if I want to keep you with me.” I leaned over and rolled so I hovered over her. “And Divinity, I’m keeping you. You’re mine. You will get to know my family well, but I have a feeling you just might be able to hold your own.”

I didn’t give her a chance to reply, I captured her mouth, before I slid down her body and settled between her thighs, devouring her pussy until she screamed that she was mine.

STRETCHING, I ASSESSED MY ACHINGbody. Damn. I hurt but I felt sooo good. I’d never had this satisfied achy feeling. Last night had been beyond amazing. I had no idea a man could have stamina like Ryder did. I knew I would be walking bow legged today. I was so thankful that I didn’t start work until midday.

I could hear the shower on and slowly eased out of bed and considered joining Ryder, but as I grabbed the sheet from my waist I saw something shiny flash in my vision. Dropping the sheet, I held my hand out in front of me and screeched. How fucking dare he! I’d teach him not to take over.Iwas the one in charge of our relationship. Not him.Imade the decisions. Not him. AndIdidn’t agree to anything. Jumping off the bed I ran to the bathroom, opened the door, stepped in and shoved the massive black rock with two diamonds on either side in Ryder’s face. “What the hell Ryder? Why the fuck am I wearing a huge arse engagement ring? I do not remember agreeing to anything that would involve a ring.”

Right now, I hated being short as I stood on tiptoe so my hand could reach Ryder’s face. Ryder, the wanker, smirked down at me and my stupid body instantly reacted to his cockiness, heating up like it hadn’t had a night of marathon sex. “You agreed to be mine. If I remember, you screamed over and over you were.”

Holy. Crap. My face was on fire. I ducked my head, but knew it was too late. He’d seen how red I turned. I was usually good with witty come backs. Well okay, they may not be witty, but I always had the last word. Ryder seemed to be stopping that. My mind couldn’t think of anything to say, but only flashed images of the things we’d done last night. “Yeah, well. You never asked to marry me. I didn’t agree to wear this.” I waved my hand in front of his face again, although now I’d noticed the ring, I had no idea how I missed it before, as it was obscenely huge. There was no way anyone would miss it. Ryder couldn’t have picked anything bigger to show people I was taken.

“You agreed to be mine. I didn’t need to ask you if you would marry me because there is no question. You will.”

Shivers raked my body and moisture pooled between my thighs. I cursed my body’s reaction to his caveman words. My brain shut down and all that came out was, “No-huh.” Oh God, could I sound any lamer? What had happened to my outrage and anger that he’d put a ring on me without asking? I was sure I was fired up when I came in ready to show Ryder who was boss, now I could barely form words. What was this man doing to me?

“You are mine. I would have claimed you the first or even the second time I saw you, but I waited to give you time to get used to the idea of me. When you came to me, I knew I wouldn’t, no, that Icouldn’tgive you up again.” His finger tilted my chin up and I glared at him, but I knew it lacked any hostility. This man did strange things to not just my body.

Needing a moment to myself to process, I pushed Ryder out of the shower. “This discussion isn’t over. Go.” I shoved at his solid chest, grunting when he didn’t even move. “Let me shower in peace.” I gave him my don’t-mess-with-me glare, the one that scared everyone. Apparently not him, though.

He chuckled and took a step back. “You were the one who came in and interrupted my shower.” He raised his hands and smirked down at me in mock surrender. “I happily give it up to you.” He winked and lowered his hands. “I’ll leave something clean for you to wear on the bed when you get out of the shower.” He leaned down and brushed a quick kiss over my lips. “I’ll see you in the kitchen. I’ll cook you breakfast.”

“You cook?”

“Of course. You don’t get to my age and not know how to cook unless you want to live off takeout food or sponge off your parents.”

Raising my brow, I scanned his body. Nope. No way could this magnificent sculpted body live off takeout food. I wouldn’t tell him how drool-worthy he was, he was already way too full of himself. “I wouldn’t be surprised if you couldn’t. You are a cop, aren’t you? Don’t they live on junk food?”

“No they don’t, and I’m a detective.”

“Same thing.” Shrugging my shoulder, I dunked my head under the spray. I knew it wasn’t the same. Being a detective was bigger and better than just being a normal beat cop, but I enjoyed the deep annoyed grumble that came from his chest as he backed out of the shower.
