My mind retraces the words from the first page he ripped out and left on my doorstep when he came to Mountain Ridge. I was so angry with him then, and now I’m seeing all this in a completely different light.
“It just hurts so bad knowing we were both aching for each other.”
Maybe if I hadn’t blocked him, he would have given in and told me.
“Do you think if I had answered that night when you called, you would have told me?”
He shakes his head. “Don’t do that to yourself. None of this was your fault. Do you hear me?”
I nod, resting my forehead against his.
“I’m glad you said yes to MRU’s football team,” I whisper, because I wouldn’t want to go another day not knowing what I know now.
“Me too, baby. Me too.” As he smiles at me, I feel it deep in my soul.
Loud noises from downstairs breakthrough our bubble.
“Call of Duty, anyone?” Maverick’s voice sing-songs.
“The hellions are home,” Nate whispers.
“I’m down,” I hear Willow holler back. My expression mirrors Nate’s confused one, and then we hear Bellamy and Cash arguing over pizza rolls versus taquitos.
“They must have talked the girls into coming back.”
Nate peeks at the time on his phone. “I hope Willow texted Dad and let him know she wasn’t going back to the hotel.”
“I’m sure she did. Even when she stayed with us girls Thursday, she still texted him to let him know when we all got home.” I run my fingers through his hair. “Is it bad if I keep you all to myself up here.”
He smirks. “What’d you have in mind, baby?”
Using my thumb to tug his bottom lip down, I whisper, “If I remember correctly, you were really good with this mouth of yours.”
He lets out a deep laugh and my pussy clenches at the sexy sound.
“Baby, I’d…”
Bam. Bam. Bam. “Berk, don’t forget to use plenty of lube on that pretty little finger of yours.”
I gasp, picking up Nate’s pillow as I bury my face in a fit of laughter.
“Fuck off, Nola!” Nate yells back, but I hear the smile on his lips before he’s laying on top of me, tickling my sides. “See what you started?”
We laugh until he grazes my nipple, and the air immediately shifts again. The lust is back in his eyes, and he bends his head, flattening his tongue and running it from one nipple to the other.
Then he sits up, kneeling between my legs. His hard cock draws my attention until he speaks, “I’m ready to eat, BB.”
He sucks in his bottom lip, and I’m pretty sure I stop breathing with anticipation. One gentle swipe of his tongue from the top of my slit to the bottom, and my body bucks off the bed.
That sexy chuckle is back, and with it is a devilish smirk. “Just to make sure you remember correctly…” He slowly licks his top lip like he’s savoring the first taste of me. “I’m about to eat this pussy till it's dripping down my chin and you’re begging for a break.”
My core weeps at his words. Leaning up on my forearms, I spread my legs wider. “Please, Nate, I need a really good reminder.”
Nineteen
My cock bounces between us, completely hard again at the sight of her spread out in front of me.
Everything about tonight has been perfect, and now she’s unleashed the beast within me. The one who has been waiting to devour every inch of her for two years now.
