He sighed. “I don’t like to watch any guy put their f**king hands on you. ”
I thought back to the night at the club when I saw the leggy brunette touching Dane and something registered within me. I knew how innocent my exchange with Ryan had been, but Dane had no way to know that. He needed reassurance just as I had that night. He needed to know that I was his and no one was going to take me away. “I’m sorry. I should’ve stepped back when he hugged me, but it all happened so fast. We had some things to say to each other, but I promise you it was nothing more. I love you. You have to know that by now. ”
He turned his hand, clasping my fingers in his. “I love you, too. I’ve never felt this way about anyone and it makes me feel so f**king crazy sometimes. ”
“Do you want to leave? I’ve had about as much as I can take for one day and we have to do it all over again tomorrow,” I said, standing up and pulling him with me. This whole day needed a reset button.
“So, how long do we have before your parents get home?” he asked. I didn’t miss the glimmer in his eyes.
“Probably a good couple hours, why?”
His sexy grin returned. “You are so tense and I know how to relieve that for you. ” Warmth flooded my belly just thinking about it.
He drove us back to my house going a little over the speed limit and stopping just long enough to be legal. As soon as we made it through the door, he picked me up in his arms and carried me upstairs. The excitement of ha**ng s*x in my parent’s house doubled my usual need for him.
As soon as the door to my bedroom closed, he set me down, pressing my back against the door. He began to kiss down my neck as I wrapped my legs around his waist to bring our bodies as close as possible. He worked at my skirt until it was wrapped around my h*ps as he nibbled on my earlobe. His lips were hard and punishing as they met mine. I could feel his erection pressed between my legs as I began to move up and down against him. I didn’t let go as he walked backwards toward the bed. He knelt down, slowly moving us so my back was pressed against the mattress, and covered me with kisses. God, I wanted him. He was a sex God and I was his worshipper.
He gently lifted my body and pulled my dress over my head before working my underwear down my legs. When I laid back down on the mattress, he gently kissed a path down my chest and stomach until his lips and tongue connected in the one place they had never been. My body tensed; I wasn’t sure I would like it, but it opened me up in a way I had never felt before and my body began to hum. I couldn’t stop him; I had to have him. After a few minutes of pure bliss, I came harder than I had ever come before, grasping the sheets in my hands. I couldn’t even describe how good it felt, but it sent shocks through my whole body. “You’re so f**king beautiful,” he said, kissing the inside of my thighs. His mouth worked its way back up my stomach, stopping at my chest. Desire flooded my body as he teased my ni**les with his tongue and soon I was so wet with need that I couldn’t see straight. His lips finally connected with mine again and I could taste myself on his kiss; it excited me even more. I loved that he did this to me.
I cupped his cheeks to break contact. “I need you inside now,” I said, practically panting with need.
He smiled a lazy, sated smile. “I’m not done with you yet, Baby. ” I was breathless and couldn’t take much more.
“Dane, please. ” I tried to unbutton his pants, but my fingers were shaking. He kept kissing my neck while rolling my ni**les between his fingers. Finally, he sat back up and I saw the same lazy smile playing around his lips. Dane found my eagerness comical. He was stalling, teasing me and it was driving me insane.
I sat up, rubbing my hands over his chest. As they slowly traveled down his stomach, he grabbed my wrists and pushed me back down onto the mattress. Lifting my eyes to meet Dane’s, I noticed that the smile was gone from his face. Instead, it was replaced with a savage look of desire. One that told me how much he wanted me. How much he needed me. A reflection of my own need for him.
He pulled his shirt off, followed by his pants, showing me exactly what I wanted. My heart was pounding and I felt breathless. If he wasn’t inside me soon, I would die with need. He looked down into my eyes and with one thrust, he filled me completely, his mouth capturing mine. The sensation of his n**ed body against me was the most incredible thing I had ever felt in my life. We were made for each other. He moved slowly at first then quickened his motions until I could feel the tension building in my body. With one more quick push, my body finally let go with his. It was so intense that I couldn’t stop the screams that left my body. It felt euphoric; I forgot where we were and I didn’t really care.
We stayed in each other’s arms that night. I didn’t ask him to go back to his room because I needed him. I would deal with the rest later. For now, I was just high from the excitement of ha**ng s*x under my parent’s roof. In a small way, I had defied them, and it felt good.
Chapter Twenty
I felt better after a full night’s sleep, especially after Dane had done as he promised and relieved some of my tension. That was the first time I had even kissed a boy in my bedroom and it had gone way past that. It felt incredible to be a little rebellious and go against mother dearest’s wishes. Straying from her strict guidelines didn’t feel so bad after what she put me through yesterday. Today would be better, I told myself. I felt a heavy arm wrap around me and pull me close.
“Dane, you should probably go back to your room before my mom comes looking for me. We have hair appointments in less than an hour. ” His grip on me tightened and I giggled into his hold; he wasn’t going to make this easy. “If you get caught, you’re going to have to sleep in your room tonight. ”
He groaned before rolling over and putting his pants back on. I hated to see him go as much as he hated to leave. When he was with me, everything felt lighter. “So, what exactly is the plan today?” he asked, sitting back on the side of the bed.
“Well, I have to go get my hair and makeup done with the girls and then we are heading to the church to get the bride dressed. The guys are going golfing so you can either join them or you can take my car to do whatever. Just make sure to be at the church a little before two,” I said, pulling the sheet up over my chest and climbing out of bed. I didn’t make it far before the sheet was yanked from my hand.
I squealed. “Dane Wright, what are you doing?” I tried to pull the sheet up, but he had a firm grasp on it.
“I like you better this way,” he said with a cocky grin.
I couldn’t help but smile. “I’m sure you do, but I can’t walk around like this all day. Plus, this is only for you to see, remember?”
He stood up, placing his hands on my hips. “Yes, you are. Only mine, now and always. ” My heart swelled in my chest.
“Always,” I whispered against his lips. Our lips met and the moment my bare chest touched his, I knew I was in trouble. I never imagined I would have such an intense need for physical connection. I guess when your heart was wrapped up in someone, the physical need followed.
Before we could go any further, there was a knock at the door. I felt the tension seep back into my body. Only one person ever knocked on my door. “Alexandra, we are leaving in fifteen minutes. I suggest you get in the shower. ” It was the voice that played in some of my worst dreams. That voice had just broken me from my current dream. My mother always ruined my best moments, but never noticed the bad.
“I’ll be down in a little bit!” I yelled back, still wrapped in Dane. The longer I stayed hidden in here with him, the better off I would be.
I kissed him one more time. “Let me put on some clothes and then I will make sure you get back to your room safe and sound. ” He hesitated before letting me go. I peeked out the door to make sure the hall was clear and held the door open for him to go across the hall. As soon as the door clicked behind him, my heart ached from the separation. I wondered if it was normal to miss someone th
is much?
Throughout the day, I didn’t have time to text or call him because I was constantly being swept from one place to another. It was hard to focus on the wedding activities when I didn’t know where he was or what he was doing. Had he gone golfing with my dad? I kind of hoped he hadn’t. My father wasn’t as bad as my mother, but he wasn’t warm and fuzzy either. Dane didn’t seem the type to be easily scared, but my father was a different breed of intimidation.
I had changed into my ivory and gold bridesmaid’s dress with a sweetheart neckline. It was belted around the waist and had a layer of organza over top. It wasn’t what I would have chosen, but it went perfectly with my sisters beautiful lace covered ivory dress. The deep v of her dress, coupled with the mermaid skirt, made her look absolutely gorgeous. I loved my sister and I wanted her to be happy; putting on her dress had done that for her. I wondered if it would last beyond the wedding day.
The wedding was beautiful. Ivory and pink flowers were everywhere with gold ribbon accents. The aisle was white and lined with flowers and candles and the church lights had been dimmed for a romantic feel. Something was missing though; the groom didn’t shed a tear when he saw his bride and the bride came down the aisle with her eyes on the guests rather than on the groom. I didn’t feel the connection that usually made me cry at weddings and my heart broke for my sister. I wondered if she even realized what she was doing or that she was walking down the same path our parents went down. I looked over to where Dane was sitting in the third row and smiled as I bit my lower lip. When you find someone you truly love, nothing else matters. I realized that being in love was worth the heartbreak that may follow. Nothing could compare to how that man made me feel. I knew what they were missing.
The recessional started, taking me away from my warm thoughts. After greeting the guests, we followed the bride and groom to where a huge pearl colored stretch limo was waiting. I searched for Dane in the crowd of people who waited patiently for us to leave. I motioned him over from where he was standing at the back of the crowd.
