As if he could read the thoughts going through my mind, his chest began to rumble with a protest.“Goddamn it, Demi.You’re beautiful and smart.You are an amazing mother.And you make the most divine muffins I’ve ever tasted.Your ex, that bastard Charlie, he is the useless one.Worthless.Nothing but a waste of space.”

Kingston cupped the side of my face, his eyes imploring me to listen.“You aren’t weak, baby.Yousurvived.Whatever hell Charlie put you through, you survived that.Raising Iris on your own.Trying to hide and protect yourself and your precious little girl.You did that, Demi.You lived it, and you survived it.That’s not weakness, sweetheart.That’s not useless.”

I shook my head, but I wasn’t sure what I was saying no to.

“How can you call yourself nothing when you’re everything, baby?You are my everything.”

“You don’t even know me, Kingston.”

He dropped his forehead to mine with an agonized groan.“Stop fighting this.You’re only torturing us both at this point, babe.There is no way you don’t feel this thing between us.Christ, girl, you live inside me now.In my head from that first day, with that first muffin you nailed me with.But now, you’re in my heart.Don’t lie to me and claim you don’t know what I’m saying.You feel it too.”

“That’s insane.No one falls that fast.”

He lifted his head, his face ravaged with pain.

My stomach dipped and flipped, knowing my words hurt him.Squeezing my eyes closed, I gave him my truth and prayed loving him wouldn’t put him in danger.“But I lost my mind the same day I gave my heart to you, Kingston.”

Something feral flickering in his eyes was my only warning before his mouth crushed against mine.Gasping at the intensity of the kiss, I grabbed the back of his neck, my fingers tugging on his hair as I kissed him back.Heat flooded my body, thawing the ice that had encased every inch back at the diner.

He licked across my bottom lip, his large hands molding my body to his.He was everywhere all at once, making it hard to keep up with what he was doing to make me feel good.All I knew was that I liked it all.How his kiss was greedy but gave as much as he took.How his hard didn’t yield to my soft.The way his fingers caressed but branded every inch of skin he touched.

Kingston’s body was so much bigger than mine, but when he kissed me, it was like we were the missing puzzle pieces that completed each other.Everything snapped perfectly into place, anchoring us together.

Breaking the kiss, he filled his hands with my ass and turned.His chest rose and fell in heavy pants as he walked into the house with me still wrapped around him.“You’re lucky I still have a little blood left in my brain so I can think clearly enough not to fuck you in the driveway.No one gets to see you come apart for me, Demi.Be a good girl while I get us inside.”

“D-don’t say that.”I tugged his head back down for a kiss.“I like it too much when you say I’m a good girl.”

He dropped down onto the couch, already pushing my shirt up and my leggings down.“There’s no such thing as liking something too much.You either do or you don’t.”

“I like it, but it’s dangerous.It makes me wet, Kingston.”

“Fuck,” he groaned, dipping his fingers into my panties.His thumb flicked over my clit, causing a rainbow of lights to flash before my eyes.“This kitty is dripping for me, baby.Let me have a taste.”

I had no time to think about what he was doing before he thrust his middle finger into me.While I was reeling from the pleasure, he rolled us, laying me on the couch and tearing away my panties.My brain had shut down, refusing to do anything but savor every moment of pleasure.He spread my thighs wider, settling between my legs, opening me for him.

He swiped his tongue up my slit before slurping my clit.My back curled up, an orgasm twisting my entire body in the most intense one I’d ever felt.Grabbing on to his head, I shamelessly rode his face through the tremors, his tongue and mouth making the most obscene yet erotic noises I’d ever heard.

Whimpering as another pulse of pleasure rocked my body, I released him.Lifting his head, he licked my release off his glistening mouth.“I’ve been fantasizing about you sitting on my face for weeks now, baby.Thank you for giving me a taste of what that dream coming true will be like.”

Heat filled my face, but he didn’t give me a chance to feel self-conscious.Unsnapping his jeans, he pushed them down his legs, along with his boxer briefs.He wrapped one hand around his shaft.With a gulp, I watched him stroke himself, transfixed by the sheer size of his cock.

Kingston was big everywhere—no exceptions.

“Tell me you’re mine,” he commanded, diving in for another kiss.He notched himself to my opening and slowly began to feed his cock into my tightness.“Tell me your heart belongs to me.”

Moaning, I kissed him back, feeling another orgasm building as he stretched me.“I love you, Kingston.”

He sucked in a harsh breath, his eyes closing for a moment as my confession settled over him.When he lifted his lashes, everything I’d ever hoped to see in his gaze was staring back at me at the same time as he thrust balls deep.“Fucking love you too, baby.”

ChapterFifteen

Kingston

Kissing Demi’s shoulder,I rolled to my feet.I wanted to stay cuddled up to her, naked on the couch, all day, but that wasn’t a possibility.At least, not for today.Soon, though, I promised myself.Very soon.

We’d been lucky that Iris had slept so long.She was still tucked in bed.That was where I wanted to take her mother, but I only had one bedroom.

For now.
