“How do you know? You can’t possibly know!” She looks like she’s about to cry, and she sits up on me, my cock deep inside her. I stifle a groan as she presses her hand to her stomach. I can feel the pressure on my cock. “I could be pregnant right now! If I just disappeared from your life, you would never know. Fuck, Tommy.”
My cock hardens inside her at the thought of her carrying my baby, and I place my hand over hers on her belly. “Gi, there are no kids and no birth control, because there are no other women.”
She snaps her gaze up to meet mine. “I’m talking about the other women you’ve fucked, Tommy.”
“You’re the only woman I’ve fucked, Giovanna.”
She sucks in a breath and stares at me in silence for a moment, searching my face for some sign that I’m lying. “You’re kidding.”
“You know I don’t lie.”
“How is that even possible? You’re 22 years old, Tommy, and you grew up with brothers who are whores. Plus, you’re gorgeous—”
“Thank you.”
“—there’s no way you didn’t have women throwing themselves at you. Every single girl back home wants you.”
I shrug. “I had a few girlfriends in high school, and we either broke up before we made it to bed or she was scared of my cock.”
She tilts her head from side to side, considering this, then nods slowly. “I guess I can see that.”
“Then I met this girl…” I trace my fingers along the inside of her thighs to where I disappear inside her.
“Me?” She sounds incredulous.
Smiling, I shift inside her, and her eyes widen even more. “I met you. A girl who wasn’t scared of me, didn’t think I was weird or crazy, who made up a secret knock that only we knew.” I tap out the knock she taught me on her thigh: 3 hard knocks, 2 soft ones, and then a burst of rapid short knocks.
She claps her hands over her mouth and gives a little scream. “I can’t believe you remember that! I totally forgot!”
I nod solemnly. I couldn’t forget it if I wanted to. “She secretly loves junk food, but her taste in flowers couldn’t be more expensive. Last summer, she drew her favorite Shenzhen Nongke orchid on my arm with vines extending out from it, and I got it tattooed on me so I could keep it forever.”
Gi’s face softens and her hazel eyes brighten with unshed tears as she finds it on my arm and traces it. I don’t mention that her drawing is the same one I carve into the men Itorture.
“Once I met her, I didn’t want anyone else.”
“But you’ve hooked up with other women since you met me. You hooked up with Lexi.”
“Actually, Lexi hooked up with me and, technically, I didn’t really hook up with other women once I met you.”
“‘Technically?’”
“Though it wasn’t you sucking my cock, it was you I saw when I closed my eyes. Your name I said when I came.”
“You said my name when you came with other women?”
“Yes, sweet girl. They might as well have been my hand.”
“I bet they loved that,” she snorts.
“They did not.”
“Did that happen with Lexi?”
“Yes.”
She smirks and looks down at my abs, tracing the marks she made on my chest earlier. “Tommy, I’ve been trying to get you to fuck me for over a year. Why would you use other women?”
I consider the question. “I didn’t use other women. I never wanted other women. But sometimes I ended up in situations that I didn’t know how to handle.”
