I just wanted to say fuck it to all my responsibilities and spend the day buried in her.

“You have to go,” she said softly.

I nodded. “I’m sorry.”

She shrugged like it was no big deal, but I knew she was lying. I didn’t want to leave her, especially like this, especially since this was the first time since we got back to Chicago that she wasn’t actively trying to fight me. It didn’t matter how much of a losing battle those other fights were for her. But tonight was a big night for us, and we needed all hands on deck, so to speak.

I clutched her chin and tilted her head back. I let my thumb glide gently across her bottom lip and, unable to help myself, I stole another hard kiss before guiding her away from the car door and opening it for her. “Come on. I’ll take you home.”

Her eyes flashed in disappointment, but she quickly turned away from me before I could say anything, shutting me out.

I ran my fingers through my hair in frustration.

We had just taken one step forward and two steps back.

But this shit wasn’t going to always be like this.

We weren’t always going to be this busy, and unluckily for her, she would have the full, undivided attention of the monster then.

I couldn’t wait.

Silently, I climbed into the driver’s side and took off.

The drive back seemed to go by faster than the drive to the restaurant, and I soon found myself parked in front of the mansion.

I got out of the car and held onto Mila’s hand as we walked through the silent house.

Rachel was probably off doing whatever the fuck she did at this time. I brought Mila to her room and set her down on her bed.

She watched me with eyes filled with emotions I couldn’t decipher, as I opened her underwear drawer and grabbed all the panties in there.

That seemed to draw her out of her reverie, and she gasped, standing up. “What are you doing?”

I grinned. “Punishment for lying to me. I’ll give this back when you decide to tell me the truth.”

“What the fuck?” she exclaimed, making me smile even more. I dropped the panties on her bed and pushed her down on the mattress.

“S-Silas?”

“Yeah, baby?” I asked, flipping her dress up to her waist.

She tried to kick me away. I tapped her on the outside of her thigh, not hard enough to leave a mark, but enough to get her attention.

She stilled on the bed and I brought my hand up to her belly, rubbing over it.

A small noise escaped her lips that didn’t sound like a protest to me. More like a good little puppy who loved belly rubs.

I made a small approving noise in the back of my throat. “Good girl.”

I let my fingers skim down her skin to the waistband of her panties and smoothly dragged them off her. My eyes honed on her small, waxed pussy, and my mouth watered.

“Did my baby miss me?” I asked.

Again, she made those little noises that I could feel all the way to my dick. I shifted, resisting the urge to strip down and rub one out in front of her.

I brought her panties up to my nose and took in her scent. “Fucking amazing,” I said into the fabric.

My phone beeped again, reminding me I didn’t have much time with her.
