that I spasm around him, never letting go. I grab ahold of his hands and wrap my legs around his waist and lose myself in this man completely.
But I know, when the moment is over, I’ll find myself just as quickly. In his arms. In his bed. Surrounded by everything he’s willing to tell me. And when he spills himself inside of me, he buries his face in the crook of my neck and whispers three words.
“I love you.” His nose trails across my cheek until our lips lock, and my arms wrap around his neck. “How long do we have until Ainsley is back?”
I grin against his lips. “Hours.”
He hums. “I’ll make it work.”
Laughing when he pulls himself up, he grabs ahold of my sides and flips me over, positioning me on my hands and knees. In one quick thrust, he’s inside me again. I drop my head back and moan, arching my spine and meeting his hips every time he drives into me.
He reaches around me and plays with my clit, already sated from my orgasm before. I bite my arm when his free hand comes up and pinches one of my nipples between his fingers. He only plays with it for a moment before the same fingers reach my mouth. “Suck.”
Not sure what he’s going to do, I wrap my lips around the two digits he offers me and suck them into my mouth. His cock twitches inside of me but never falters from the rhythm. He groans as he draws his fingers out and moves them back to my clit. His lips trail down my back, nipping and licking as his thrusts became harder, faster.
The sound of our skin smacking against each other turns me on more, knowing our mixed cum from the first time is coating us both. He pinches my clit, circling it with his thumb before using his free hand to hold my hips as he bends over me and enters me faster.
“This time will be quick,” he says into my shoulder blades, kissing me there. “But then I’ll go slow, mark you. You’re mine, Piper. You’ll feel me and only me for the rest of the day.”
My eyes roll in the back of my head as he puts all his weight on the back of me and pinches my clit until we both come again. His teeth bite down onto my shoulder, causing me to jerk with him still inside of me. I can feel his warmth trickling down my thighs and know I need to clean up, but don’t get a chance before he’s moving my head and kissing me again.
After another hour and a half of sex, I’m sore and sated and sweaty in his sheets. His body wraps around me as he kisses the back of my neck from the spooned position that we’re laying in. I close my eyes and listen to his breathing, letting it calm my own down until our heartbeats sync.
He’s right. I feel him everywhere.
I smile.
Chapter Thirty-One
I sit on the edge of a bench by a large fountain and watch Mable kneel over her section of the community garden, smiling at how peaceful she is. When she saw me, I knew what kind of day it would be. She looked through me like I was a stranger. She didn’t have to call me somebody else’s name for me to know the polite distance in her eyes meant she wasn’t lucid.
It’s getting worse, which is why Ainsley’s seen less of her. I’ll bring her for half an hour before taking her home when a glaze finds Mable’s eyes. But today I needed to see her, even when the nurse on the phone told me she wasn’t feeling well.
Nurse Douglas has been one of the main nurses tending to Mable besides Glenda. She sits down next to me and smiles. “Is everything okay, Piper?”
For once, I nod and mean it. “Yeah, everything is great. Except Mable not remembering me. She’s getting worse, isn’t she? It seems like she’s less lucid these days.”
Her lips don’t hesitate to waver downward, the frown evident on her face. “I won’t lie to you, we’re concerned. Some patients slip at slower rates than others and Mable hasn’t been one of those cases.”
Rubbing my lips together, I bob my head up and down and watch the woman in question tend to the plant in front of her. “How can somebody remember how to plant and care for a flower but not remember
