Henry
"Ilove you."
All these years later, and I still melt into Kai when he tells me that. Snuggling further into his bare chest, I say the same, "I love you too."
The silence is comfortable this morning and the sunrise shining through the curtains adds a warm hue. I can practically hear Kai thinking though. Finally, he releases what he's been wrestling with.
"Do you think everything will be okay?" he whispers against my hair like he's afraid to ask.
My response is hesitant because I refuse to lie to my fiancé, but with Mr. M in the wind and nothing to go off of, I'm feeling horribly unsettled about everything. Something's coming, and I think it's that monster, but I have no clue when or how bad he's going to rain his brand of hell down on us.
I settle for a distant truth. "In time, yes." How he takes it is up to him.
"And us?"
Frowning, I pop up on my elbow to look down at him. "Of course. Why do you ask?"
The bags beneath his eyes and the dark scruff on his jaw are the only red flags I need to know that he's been struggling. We all are, but what sucks is there's no cure to make our stress go away. And asafetystress has to be the most crippling form there is.
Kai studies my face for a moment. "Because our dynamic is changing, and I just want to make sure we will always come together to connect too. Life will only get busier with this new relationship and I don't ever want to put us on the back burner."
"Then we'll keep talking, my love," I promise. "Still plan dates and be mindful of the relationship we have built before our family grew. Okay?"
Please say okay.
A smile tugs his lips up, helping me relax once again. "Okay, baby. Thank you."
"Love you," I murmur because I have nothing else to say and I can't go wrong with an expression of love.
Kai's response is to kiss me and flip me onto my back. He groans, rubbing his morning wood against mine, effectively making all words fly from my mind. Our bodies take over in reassuring pleasure of this is where we're meant to be, and no matter what, our connection will always be a priority.
Like almost every morning I wake up with my man, our boxers disappear and wetness drips through my asscrack before I really know what's happening. We're insatiable for each other, and there's no part of me that wants to stop his hot tip from stretching me open.
"Kai," I groan and wiggle, ready to demand he bottom out in me. "More. Now!" Guess my patience had a much shorter fuse today.
He chuckles a sexy, throaty rumble in my ear and eases himself further inside of me. "Don't want to hurt you, baby."
He's been fucking my ass for years. This is just teasing at this point. My next words are most definitelynota demand. I fuckingpout. "Kaiii!"
"Needy just like Nina," he taunts and thrusts the rest of the way. I'm already sweating, but the slickness between our bodies only heightens the moment.
Then someone knocks on our bedroom door. Kai's head shoots up, but he doesn't look away from me as his dick twitches repeatedly against my prostate. "Who is it?" he shouts, not sounding strained at all.Fucker.
"Ah, sorry. It's Nina." Nina shouts back a second later. Just the sound of her voice has my balls drawing up.
The smirk that lights up Kai's face almost does me in too, but I hold it together. "Come in!" he bellows and pumps into me slowly.
Nina doesn't say anything else, but I hear the jostle of the doorknob followed by a loud gasp. "Ohmigod!" she screeches as she must get an eyeful of Kai's tight ass with my legs around his waist. "I'm sorry—Why would you—I'll leave!"
"Get over her, flora." Kai sounds like he does when he's about to let loose. There's nothing but the sound of our fucking and heavy breathing until Nina comes into view with the pinkest cheeks I've ever seen.
"I didn't know..." She sounds embarrassed and guilty.
Kai pauses and looks at her intently. "I know. We want you here. Personally, I'd love to see you fuck your little fingers while I come in Henry's ass."
She sucks in a breath and her hands hold her waist like she's uncomfortable. Or horny. "I?—"
