James laughed. “I already have my speech planned. My little brother’s getting married!” he yelled to some people watching us on the sidewalk.
I laughed. It was the most ridiculous thing I’d ever seen in my life. Everyone around us definitely would have thought James and Rob were engaged if James hadn’t clarified that his littlebrother was getting married. Or maybe now they just thought it was gay incest…
“Men,” Daphne said. “I swear I wanted to tell you guys right away, but Rob swore me to secrecy and I’m bad at keeping secrets. So then I didn’t want to hang out with you guys until we got to tell you because it was making me all nervous and I’m already nervous because of the wedding.”
“I’m just glad you don’t hate me,” I said.
“Hate you? Penny, I’ve never met anyone more welcoming in my life. You already feel like the sister I never had.
I started blinking away tears.
“Don’t cry…”
“It’s my hormones, I swear. But Daphne, you feel like the sister I never had too.”
She gave me a big hug. “Thank you. For all your help. And for making me feel like I’m already part of the family.”
I was sobbing now. Because I was so happy. And relieved. Not just for myself. But for all my friends. This wedding was going to be freaking spectacular.
Seduction - Chapter 20
Sunday
I glanced at the alarm clock. It was 3 in the morning. But James and I had forgotten to have sex before he fell asleep. It was the first day we’d missed since starting our five months of seduction. We’d stayed out so late with Rob and Daphne celebrating. I was pretty sure I’d gotten second-hand intoxicated just from the smell of booze in the air.
I knew James was exhausted. Or else he wouldn’t have fallen asleep as soon as his head touched his pillow. But my blood was pumping faster than usual. It was like my body needed him. Like I couldn’t sleep without him inside of me first.
For a second I just stared at him in the darkness. I wasn’t sure I’d ever get sick of staring at him. I hoped I never would.
I wondered if this was how it would be once the baby was born. Being up in the middle of the night. James exhausted. I smiled to myself. If this was how our life would be once my son arrived, I’d take it. I’d wake up in the middle of the night countless times if it meant seeing James like this. He looked so at peace when he was sleeping.
It hadn’t always been that way. He used to barely sleep at all before we met. He’d told me once that he had the best sleep of his life when he was beside me.
So maybe it was wrong to disturb him. But I couldn’t sleep until I made good on my promises.
“James,” I whispered.
He groaned.
It was tempting to wander into the sex dungeon and find something to tie him up with. But I wasn’t sure if he’d love waking up to that. I knew he’d love waking up to this though. “I forgot to seduce you today.”
He slowly opened his eyes, his eyelids heavy.
“I need you,” I whispered.
“Come here.” He reached out and pulled me closer. Turning me so that my back was to his front. He kissed the side of my neck, soft and slow. Torturously slow.
I tried to turn, but he grabbed my hip, keeping me in place.
“Baby, if you’re going to wake me up in the middle of the night, you’ll have to do whatever I was dreaming of.” His fingers lazily bushed across my clit. “Mmm, you’re so fucking wet.”
I arched my back into him
He groaned.
“And what were you dreaming of?” I asked. Because if it was this…I was definitely okay with that. I could already feel how hard he was against my ass. Apparently I wasn’t the only one that needed something before bed.
“You on all fours.” His fingers brushed across my clit again. “Me fucking you from behind. Your back arched just like this.” He buried his face in my hair like he was breathing me in.
