“Rem—”
He is cut off as his phone rings. I’ve never been happier for that thing to interrupt us. Taking advantage of the moment, I get up and head into the kitchen.
Pouring myself another glass of wine, I get lost in my thoughts. It’s been three weeks and I’ve been happier than ever. I begin to list the pros and cons of our relationship. Knight walks into the room shirtless, wearing a pair of sweatpants that are sitting low on his hips.
He moves to the refrigerator and grabs a beer, slamming the door shut and keeping his back to me. I get that he’s frustrated, but he wants something we can’t have together. My gaze locks in on the wound on his back.
It’s taunting me as I stare at it. It’s a huge reminder of why we can’t stay together. All the pros go out the window as I look at the raised skin.
“Knight,” I whisper.
He downs his beer, then turns to look at me. I stand speechless, not sure of what to say. I move closer to him and wrap my arms around his waist. I place the side of my face against his chest and say a silent prayer in thanks to be able to hear his heart beating.
That in itself is a relief. His warmth encases me, lulling me further into the feeling of safety I long for so badly. If I had that, things could be so much different.
“Want to watch a movie?” he murmurs.
I sigh in relief. Turning my head, I place a kiss against his bare chest. He’s not going to make me fight this out tonight, and I’m grateful for it.
“Yeah, that sounds good. You can pick.”
He grunts but kisses the top of my head without another word. We stand in silence for a few more minutes before we head back into the living room to watch a movie. I should thank whoever that was who called him, they bought us some more time.
Knight
That call that interrupted us was from an unknown number and there wasn’t any answer on the other end before they hung up. I pushed it aside because of my frustration with where my conversation with Rem was going. Now I’m sitting up staring at the ceiling as my thoughts nag at me.
I can’t sleep. Something in the pit of my stomach won’t let it go. I wonder if Harris will be able to get a trace on it for me. I’ll give him a ring first thing in the morning.
“Knight,” Rem calls out, pulling me from my thoughts.
I look down to find her staring back at me. I reach for her face and run the back of my finger down the bridge of her nose. A smile comes to her lips, causing me to move to trace those next.
She’s so beautiful. I still remember the first time I ever saw her. She took my breath away.
As if reading my mind, she moves to straddle my waist and sits there looking gorgeous as fuck. I allow my gaze to roam over her naked body.
As she glides her hands over my abs, I reach for her breasts and squeeze them in my palms, pinching her tightened peaks. I’m instantly hard. She leans over to connect our lips.
“I need you,” she whispers against my mouth.
I need her too. I’ve been lost in my thoughts because I’ve wanted to bury myself in her instead. She fell asleep halfway through the movie. I had to carry her to bed.
She woke up once before to use the bathroom and strip from her clothes. That’s when I began to want to wake her to fuck for a few hours. Having her ass pressed against my leg while she slept has tested my restraint.
Now that she’s up pleading for me and I have this feeling like our time is running out, I need to be inside her more than ever. I guide her onto my hard length and groan as she seats herself. Her pussy feels so good.
It sucks me into its tight, warm sheath, reminding me that I never have this with anyone else. Nor do I want it with anyone other than her. I sit up so we’re nose to nose, then open my mouth as she opens hers as if she needs to breathe me in as much as I need to breathe her.
“Oh my God, Knight,” she cries as I start to bounce her hard on my cock.
She locks her fingers in my hair and connects our lips. I take over the kiss and devour her sweet mouth. I can’t get enough of her. I break the kiss to lick her face and kiss her cheek before moving my lips to her neck to do the same.
Her pussy tightens around me, but I’m not done for the night. I lift her and place her on the bed, then move to turn her on her stomach. As she lays there trying to catch her breath, I kiss my way from her shoulders down to her ass.
