Sierra moved around the room disregarding me as she fawned over the paintings out in the open. Most of them were covered but some of the newer pieces were out. When I heard her suck in a quick breath, I knew she’d found Kane’s newest piece. It was still on the huge easel in the middle of the floor.
“Oh my god, this is beautiful, North. Kane painted this? Like with his hands?” I walked around and looked at the finished painting he was holding for Mr. Chandler and smiled.
“Isn’t it stunning?” I gushed. I could stare at the realistic painting for hours picking out all the details. “I love how Kane can take something as simple as feathers blowing in the wind an make it art.” I shook my head at his undeniable talent.
Sierra’s eyes twinkled as she stared at it. “How much is he selling this one for?”
“A lot, so let’s get the hell out of here.” Something wouldn’t allow me to tell her Kane was making five hundred thousand dollars from that piece. I watched her until she was in the hall and out of the room, then I closed the door behind me and headed for the stairs.
“Wait, I want to see Kane’s room. Or do you two share a room now?” She grinned at me wanting all the information I’d give her. I tucked my lips between my teeth to hide the smile trying to blossom on my lips but it didn’t do any good. My cheeks were on fire.
“Ooh, so youdosleep in his room. Girl, let me see.”
“No,” I giggled, pushing her hands away from the doorknob.
“God, you act like there are sex toys in there or something.” She tried to push me away from the door with her hips then she paused. “Wait,arethere sex toys in there?”
“Shut up, Sierra,” I laughed. I grabbed her hand and laced my fingers through hers. “Let’s grab something to eat.” I was able to pull her away from the bedroom and down the steps just in time for Kane and Elijah to walk in laughing and talking. I paused in my stride to the kitchen and grinned from ear to ear.
“Hey girls,” Kane looked at me and nodded his head then gave Sierra a polite smile.
“North, give me some,” Elijah said, holding out his hand. I gave him a high five then I eyed Kane. It was hard not to peel his clothes off with my eyes. It was hard for him too. He had even less restraint than me. He draped his arm around my shoulders and tugged on the ends of my now straight hair.
“Look what I picked up for you.” Kane held up a bag from Target and shook it at me. I snatched it from him and dug in immediately. Inside were bags of Dum-Dum Pops and watermelon Sour Patch candy.
The loudest happy squeal fluttered out of me. “Thank you! I was out.”
“I know.” He winked at me then moved into the kitchen careful not to let his eyes linger. I still felt his sticky hot gaze though.
“Your teeth are going to fall out,” Sierra sighed.
“Whatever, hater.” I stuck my tongue out at her as I opened the bag of Dum-Dums and rifled through it to find a cherry one. I popped it in my mouth and went into the living room with Sierra following behind.
We spent most of the afternoon with our heads together laughing at things on our phones while Kane and Elijah worked on the Valentine’s display for the gallery. The moment Sierra went upstairs to take a shower and get ready for bed, I jumped at the chance to spend alone time with Kane.
I heard the water turn on and rush through the pipes above my head. I took a quick look around before settling in Kane’s lap on the couch. Elijah left after dinner and I could tell Sierra was getting sleepy.
Kane’s big warm hands slid up and down my thighs then beneath my shirt. “You’re sleeping in your room tonight,” he said.
“No, I’m not.”
“Wasn’t a question, Shortcake. I don’t trust your friend, I told you that.” When he kissed my neck and pushed his hand under my bra, my heart filled my throat leaving the cavity behind my ribs empty.
“She’s changing.” I swallowed down my thumping heart and turned to straddle him bunching my skirt around my waist. I rested my forehead against his and put my weight on his growing erection. It felt amazing pressed against my pussy. “She apologized to me today. I think she finally understands.”
Kane let out a chuckle and pushed my shirt up, baring my white bra. “My sweet girl. Everyone doesn’t have the same heart as you.” He tugged on my bra until my breasts bounced out. My nipples stood for him, proud and stiff. He dragged his warm thick tongue over one nipple and I moaned soft and sweet. “Sierra doesn’t have the same heart as you. Keep your eyes open.” Next, he used his teeth while his fingers tweaked my unoccupied nipple.
I couldn’t get enough of him. I heard his words but his hands and mouth were creating a delicious hum in my veins I couldn’t ignore. My greedy hips rocked against his cock as it dug into me. It wasn’t enough. I needed him to fuck me.
“Okay,” I breathed.
“You’re not listening to shit I’m saying, are you?” A handsome smile crossed his lips.
“I am but I need to feel you inside of me. Now. Before Sierra gets out of the shower.”
No more words were needed between us. Our tongues, teeth, and lips licked, sucked, and bit in a frenzy, trying to beat the shower running upstairs. When I unbuckled Kane’s belt the distinctive sound of metal on metal sent shivers down my spine. His dick bobbed out at me, so hard and ready. His quick fingers shoved my panties to the side and I lifted up so he could slide in.
I was still sensitive from the way he fucked me earlier but I didn’t care. I wanted the sting and the pleasure. I craved it.
