“Don’t worry, Beauty,” he growled “I’ll take care of you as soon as we get to the cabin”

“I don’t want to wait,” I cooed, scooting over to hi his neck He smelled like a spicy, ently pushed me away

“We’ll be at the cabin soon enough,” he said

“But it’ll take forever And you’ll end up drinking with Bruce all night and I’ll have to wait hours until I get you alone again Let’s pull over”

“It’s late Bruce will be asleep already, because he neveron the slopes before sunrise We’ll see hiets back”

“Does that mean I don’t have to wait?” I smiled

“Don’t worry, baby, I’ et there”

“Good luck with that,” I laughed “I never seem to want you to stop these days”

“Well, thenat me “I’ll have to fuck you a little harder”

“Pro over at him

It was already dark, the sun co in the breeze overhead as hipped up and around the curves, the headlights of the Jeep the only light around for miles

“I’ back in my seat

“Me, too, Chloe” Bear reached over, grabbing ers with mine

“Do you think Bruce will be shocked about the baby?” I asked

“No,” he said, thoughtfully

“You don’t think he’ll think we’re going too fast?”

“No, he kno much I love you He won’t care about that He’s not that kind of person”

“Marie seems to really like him”

“Everyone loves Bruce, it’s impossible not to,” he said

“He’s really special,” I said It was true Bruce was everyone’s friend, the kind of guy who accepted you without question He’d welcomed me into their life ide open arms

“He is,” Bear said “There haven’t been a lot of men like him in my life He’s been my one true friend, the only person I would trust with anything”

“It’s good to have a friend like that,” I said, thinking of Marie

“It is,” he said “I actually think he’ll be thrilled He loves kids He loves you It really couldn’t be more perfect”

He pulled ers I bea with joy

This is ht

My wonderful, beautiful life…

Bear

I woke up withpeacefully onhalf of her beautiful face I bentthe sweet scent of her hair, just like I’d done everyday for the last week

I’d insisted she move in withfor the rest of my life and partly because I couldn’t bear to be away from her

I’d become addicted to her

I loved everything about her The way she shed, the way she talked, the way she moved…the way she moved on the end of my cock

The thought of it made me hard instantly Or, maybe I’d woken up that way Either way, it was suddenly all I could think of and I was filled with pure need A need that could only be fulfilled by her body

I was still trying to wrap my head around all of this In my usual manner, I was obsessed hy

Why I reacted so strongly to her

Why I continued to need her more than I needed air

Why it was her, and only her, that could make me feel this way

There were so many reasons, all of them perfectly vali

d, but I couldn’t help but conteone so fast, even forof fast decisions and even faster deals

I’d learned to strike while the iron was hot, but s for Chloe had even made my head spin a little

I didn’t

I was in awe of the fact that she’d gone along with everything She’d had every opportunity, and probably every reason, to slap ain

But she hadn’t She’d been a little scared, at first, I’d seen it in her eyes

But she’d also been brave Braver than any other woman I’d let in before

You’ve seen how I get

I can’t help it

And yes, I’ve tried I’ve tried to suppress the rage, the darkness, as Chloe calls it, and you know, it works for a hotit down, letting it build up until the need is even stronger and hotter and I just…explode

It’s best to let the steam out a little at a time, you know?

I can control it better that way It doesn’t get out of hand

Not like before

I’ret and sha dinner with Levi Fucking Levi He’d been trying to sabotage every relationship I had since Zoe had become infatuated with me

It wasn’tthe price ever since

Well, okay, o and he should have gotten over it by now

But none of that mattered any more Levi wasn’t a problem for me, he never was I just didn’t want him anywhere near Chloe, because Chloe wasn’t just any woman

She was the woman

She was different from all those other women I’d dated That’s why I’d lost one over to Levi’s place and taken care of things like a otten all mixed up and I’d taken it out on Chloe’s beautiful, perfect ass instead

I’d never fucked up like that before and I’d never felt as horrible as I still did about it

I would never ain
