“Oh yes, fuck, more. Fuck me,” I rambled as pleasure coiled at the base of my spine. He felt so big inside me, filling me up completely. Tingles raced across my skin as we quickly found our rhythm. I met him thrust for thrust. His fingers dug into my hips hard enough that I was sure I would have bruises. I loved it. He owned me as he shifted his angle, nailing my prostate on his next thrust.
“Oh God, yes!” Writhing beneath him, I could feel my orgasm creeping up on me. I wanted to grab my cock but couldn’t reach it with Atticus leaning over me and kissing down my neck. It was too late. My orgasm rocketed through me suddenly as Atticus hit that magical spot again.
“Fuck, I’m gonna come. I’m coming.” Moaning, I rocked against him, my head thrown back as I gave in to the pleasure. My cock twitched as I came, untouched.Fuck, yes!
Atticus fucked me through my orgasm, sending frissons of delight throughout my body. He picked up the pace, lifting my ass off the mattress as he slammed into me again and again.
“Fuck, yes!” He growled. His cock swelled, slamming into me one last time as he unloaded inside me. I felt the heat of his release, causing me to moan in return.
Breathing heavily, Atticus collapsed on top of me. I hugged him close as we both came down from the euphoric high.
He was heavy and so much bigger than me, so he couldn’t stay on top for long. I wriggled under him, straining to catch my breath with his weight pinning me down.
“Sorry.” Atticus panted as he rose and shifted to the side, causing his cock to leave my body. His warm cum leaked from my hole. I shivered at the sensation.
“You okay?”
“Amazing,” I answered, my cheeks hurting from how much I was smiling.
He leaned over to kiss me gently as he tucked my sweaty hair behind my ear. “That was incredible. You are incredible.”
I held his palm against my cheek as I looked into his eyes. So many emotions shone in those irises as he gazed down at me like I was precious. I cherished them all.
I was safe.
I was home.
I turned to kiss his palm as the feelings inside me nearly overwhelmed me.
Atticus gently rubbed my cheek. “Let’s get cleaned up.” He kissed me on the lips and helped me up as we made our way to his en suite. I felt closer to Atticus than ever before and hoped he felt the same way.

ATTICUS
A cloud had settledover us as we ate breakfast Monday morning. Max had called to confirm a 9:00 a.m. appointment at the courthouse, and he would be by the house at 8:10 a.m. to escort us. I could tell Bodhi was on edge as he moved food around his plate, not really eating.
“It’ll be okay.” I tried to reassure him. “Max will be with us. We’ll get this filed, and hopefully, it will stop Derek in his tracks.”
“Hmm,” he said, not really listening to me.
The rest of the morning passed the same way as I tried to drag Bodhi out of his mood but to no avail. When Max arrived early, we decided to just get on the road and stop by Jolt on the way for coffee—orbettercoffee. I also thought it would be good for Bodhi to see Kay, since they’d formed a nice friendship, and he could use all the support he could get today.
It was prime breakfast time, so the café was busy with the whole Beck family working. Kay came out of the kitchen with plates of steaming food and noticed Bodhi. He sent him a small smile. Kay was compassionate and I’m sure he knew Bodhiwould be struggling, knowing what he was up against today. Once he dropped off the food at its table, he quickly pulled Bodhi off to the side where they began to talk in soft whispers. Max and I stayed in line to order coffee. Kay’s Dad, Rick, was serving today. It was odd to see him behind the counter because he’d all but retired, leaving the place to Kathleen and Kaydence.
“Hey, Rick, long time no see. Aren’t you supposed to be taking it easy?” I asked with a raised eyebrow.
“Hey, Atty, my boy. You know me. I like to fill in every now and then to keep these young ones on their toes.” He waggled his eyebrows as he took our order. “Your usual? You too, Max?”
“Thanks, Rick.” Max pushed up the brim of his uniform hat. “When are you going to join me for a hike again? We miss you out there.”
Rick was a kind man. Kaydence took after him, right down to the blond hair and glasses. Yep, he was the spitting image of his father. Rick was younger than my Pa had been, but he knew all of us Papadakises from our younger years running around the town causing mayhem.
Max and Rick continued to talk while I went over to check on Bodhi as we waited for our coffees. Kay gave Bodhi a big hug before getting back to work as I approached.
“You okay?”
“Yeah, just filling Kay in,” Bodhi reassured me, his body still tense and on edge. “He wanted to come but couldn’t, so he told me to call him on our way home to check in after... everything.”
