my fingers into him and moan.
“Does that feel good?” he asks.
I nod. “There, Shepherd.”
He rocks his hips again and when he presses into that spot my back arches and my body aches for release. He groans as he tucks his head against my neck and kisses me. His hand tightens on mine as my other hand pumps my cock.
As he moves inside me, I wonder how this man could make everything in my life so much better. How he could drive me so crazy with need for him. I realize that I’ll never be able to let him go and I’ll do anything to fight to keep him with me.
I rub myself as I feel the tension of my orgasm reach me. It fills me as I groan and Shepherd releases my hand to stroke my cock. Cum hits his stomach as he moans and I can feel his thrusts quickening. He buries himself inside me as he comes, and I hold him tightly to me.
He leans over me, holding me close, and our heavy breathing fills the air around us. Slowly, he pulls out of me before rolling onto his side and dragging me with him. I press myself against him as he squeezes me close, like he’s never planning on letting me go.
“Are you good?” I ask. “We didn’t rush it?”
He shakes his head. “No, I’m very good. I can easily say that was the first time I’ve enjoyed sex in my life,” he says as he kisses me. “More than enjoyed, actually.”
“Me too. And I’m glad because I don’t want you ever doing anything you don’t want to,” I say as I squeeze him tighter. I don’t want to get up from this spot ever again. I want to stay in this moment and listen to the sound of his heart as he plants soft kisses on my cheek and forehead again and again.
And I realize that I’ve never been happier.
Twenty-Nine
When I wake up, I’m lying against Shepherd with Bear on my back. He feels like a heavy weight, but it’s a comfortable one. It’s like I’m surrounded by things that love me and care about me and it makes me never want to get out of this bed.
“Morning,” Shepherd mumbles.
“Let’s pretend it’s night and stay like this for even longer,” I say.
He wraps an arm around me and squeezes me to him. “I like that idea.”
“You want to know what’s an even better idea?”
He tucks his head against my chest. “I love better ideas.”
“We pretend that we have no idea what’s going on and we go hide in a cave.”
He snickers. “That is an awesome idea.”
I sigh. “But I feel like we should at least do something, right?”
“We’ll call it even then. We’ll miraculously be excused for all the shit we did if we stop your father.”
“I like the idea of that,” I say. “Then we’ll be guilt free and probably in prison.”
“Nah, we won’t get caught. We’re too motherfucking sneaky for that shit.”
I’m uncertain about this seeing as I feel like we lack the luck of being “motherfucking sneaky” but I nod anyway. “I’ll somehow steal all of my father’s illegal money and we’ll be rich.”
“We could buy a mansion, if you want.”
“I feel like that’s not really ideal for staying hidden.”
He’s grinning as he waves a hand through the air like he’s trying to help me visualize it. “There’ll be a moat and a drawbridge and fire. There has to be fire.”
“You’ve finally gone crazy, haven’t you? Just up and lost your mind.”
“Maybe a little,” he says.
I squeeze him. “That’s fine. If my sugar pie wants a drawbridge his sugar daddy will buy him one,” I say.
“You’re like nine years younger than me.”
“Shhhh. Who’s the one who will have all the money?”
He pretends to think about it. “You are.”
“Who do you need to listen to?”
“You, my dark lord.”
“Good. You get an extra five dollars for that,” I say as I stroke his hair.
“Wow, thank you!”
I snicker as I try to turn my body into him but I can’t with the weight crushing my back. “Your dog is crushing me.”
“He’s your dog too.”
“No, I don’t have any monsters.”
Shepherd reaches out like he’s going to shield Bear from my words. “He’s not a monster. He only led the enemy to us one time. It’s not his fault he’s sweet as pie and dumb as a rock.”
I squeeze out from under Bear before realizing that he was keeping me warm. “Now I’m cold.”
Shepherd throws a leg over
