Chapter 44: Chapter 44

^SEVEN YEARS AGO^

XAVIER

We heard a ~ting~, alerting us as we reached our floor. Without breaking the kiss, we reached our room, stumbling a few times. I took out a key card from my back pocket.

Once inside, I pushed her against the door. I wanted it to be special, but I didn’t know what had possessed me, her taste or need and desire to taste her.

I kissed her again, hungrily, and slid my hand up her inner thigh. My fingers slid over her folds, finding her clit easily. I teased it slowly, and she moaned against me.

I felt her tremble, and it drove me fucking wild. I glided my middle finger up along her slit, gathering her wetness, and I gently rubbed it along her clit. “Oh, Xavier,” she moaned.

Everything about her was captivating.

Ever since I’d met her, my every thought was about her, and I wanted to know everything about her life, her thoughts, her feelings. ~Everything.~

~

She was all I wanted, my first wish, my last wish. I couldn’t live without her. Not anymore.

I teased her with my fingers, sliding them up and down, rolling her hard little bud, making her groan. I pushed her legs wider, forcing her dress up over her hips.

My thumb began to pleasure her clit, and she moaned against my lips, kissing me passionately. Desire and lust were taking over, and I couldn’t think straight.

All day, she’d been all I was able to see. I had been starving to touch and taste her. It hadn’t been enough torture.

Then, she’d started teasing me, wearing nothing, just a crop top and the shortest shorts I had ever seen. It had been anguish to be so close and not be able to touch her.

I had been fighting every instinct I had. Now that we were finally alone where no one could disturb us, I wasn’t going to waste a motherfucking second of it.

I knelt in front of her. The sweet smell of her pussy was filling my nose and making me lightheaded. I looked up, and she looked down at me with the sexiest brown fuck-me eyes I’d ever seen.

I swallowed hard as I leaned my head over and took a long inhale of her intoxicating honey essence.

The aroma of her cunt filled my nostrils and traveled through my body, lighting every cell on fire.

And the way that she was looking at me with a lusty gaze in her eyes told me that she couldn’t wait any longer either.

I kissed her inner thigh as I grabbed her ass with both hands.

She tensed, and I pushed her legs open again as I teased her pussy with my fingers, kissing her skin, her legs, her thighs, just above her pussy.

She growled, making me chuckle.

“Someone is impatient?” I smirked.

“Xavier, please,” she begged, thrusting her hips forward.

“What do you want, Sara?”

“You, your cock, your mouth on my pussy right now!” she growled. Fisting her hand in my hair, she pulled me closer to her pussy.

I grinned against her pussy, and I gave her a slow lick. “Xavier, please,” she begged.

I smirked. “That’s a good girl. Beg me, Sara.”

“Oh, Xavier. Eat my pussy, Xavier, like you’re starving for it. Make me cum, Xavier. With your mouth, with your magical tongue.”

I grinned at her words, ~magical tongue~.

~Dirty girl.~

~

I slid two fingers deep inside her pussy. She gasped and groaned. I smirked and cocked my head. “Magical tongue, huh?”

“Yes! Magical tongue. You make me cum like no one has ever made me cum. Hard and fast,” she groaned, rolling her hips.

My heart started hammering in my chest, just thinking about another man who’d touched her before. I cleared my throat and tried to calm down the raging feelings inside.

“You’re mine now; every inch of your body belongs to me,” I growled possessively and buried my tongue inside her sweet pussy.

“Oh, fuck!” she cried out.

My tongue glided through her soft folds and up to her pulsing clit. When I wrapped my lips around it and gave it a hard suck, she squeezed my ears with her thighs and cried out.

Her body started jerking around when I flicked her clit with my tongue, and she held onto my head tighter than ever.

I lapped her clit, sucked and licked it, while my fingers slid in and out of her tight pussy. I traced her tight hole with my tongue, and her whole body shivered as I slowly pushed it inside.

I couldn’t help myself. I groaned, softly growling as I sucked and licked her faster, faster, tasting her honey.

She started rolling her hips on my mouth with every lick of my tongue. She started moaning and grinding against me as I devoured her.

I sucked her faster, licking her and working her harder. My fingers fucked her nice and deep and curled to hit her spot just so.

“Oh, fuck! Fuck! Don’t stop! Don’t fucking dare to stop!”

I growled and licked her faster, fucked her harder. My fingers worked her in and out, while my tongue lapped her up, sucking and rolling along her clit.

Her hands tightened in my hair. “Oh, fuck, Xavier,” she moaned, and I knew she was close.

She came hard on my mouth and threw her head back as she screamed, and her voice resonated. Her pussy pulsed on my lips, and a rush of sweet honey surged into my mouth.

I greedily licked up as much of it as I could. I didn’t stop. I continued licking her, long and hard. She tasted too damn good to stop.

I increased the pace of my tongue, and I was devouring her once again. She was grinding against my mouth and rolling her hips with every lick. I growled in pleasure.

It wasn’t long before a second orgasm hit her, making her pussy clench as her body shook. She was even louder this time as I drank up every drop of honey that she gave me.

Standing, I slammed my lips against her, stealing her breath. Her fingers dug into my shoulders, and her body slid closer to me.

I groaned into the kiss, my tongue sliding across her lips and demanding entrance. She let me, and I fucking devoured her.

I stopped kissing her and moved my lips to her neck, gently kissing and nipping the skin. I raised her dress up and pulled it over her head.

Stepping back, I looked at her naked body from head to toe for a second longer. She was stunning, beautiful, a fucking goddess.

“You’re staring,” she whispered, breathlessly. Her pupils dilated, and her lips were red and swollen, and her cheeks were flushed.

“I’m admiring,” I replied. I dug into my pocket and took out the box. “I have something for you,” I whispered.

She looked down at my hand, and her smile dropped when she saw the jewelry box in my hand. It stung. ~Badly.~

~

I shook my head. “It’s not what you’re thinking,” I said carefully, watching her reaction. She sighed in relief. My heart squeezed tightly at her reaction.

~Fuck.~ It hurt more than I’d guessed. Was she not sure about us? Ignoring the searing pain in my heart, I continued.

“Because I know you’re not ready for that,” I whispered, trying to hide the pain in my voice.

She looked into my eyes, too perceptive for her own good. “What about you?” she asked.

“Truth?” I asked, not wanting to frighten her.

“Always.”

~So be it.~

~

“I have been ready since the day you woke in my arms, nine months ago. I knew you were it for me.

“The one I want to spend my life with, the one I want to grow old with, the one I want to start my family with, the one—”

Before I could finish, her lips were on me, hungry, desperate. I growled into the kiss, shoving my tongue into her mouth.

My dick was hard as granite, and I wanted to push her legs open and slam right into her sweet pussy.

Leaving her lips, I trailed down to her neck, inhaling her scent. Sweet. So fucking sweet. My nose trailed up along the column of her throat.

My teeth grazed the skin right below her ear. “Are you ready?” I whispered.

Her answer came in the form of a moan and a whimper. I carefully placed the necklace around her neck and locked it in place. I kissed her bare shoulder and stepped back.

It was a promise necklace that had the infinity symbol with her name and mine on it. I clasped her hand and placed it over my heart.

“From now on, my heart and my soul are yours. It’s a promise. I will be yours from now till my last breath,” I whispered.

She gazed down at it, her eyes pooling with tears. Her eyes filled with love and devotion. “I love you, Xavier,” she whispered and kissed me with love, with passion.

~Holy hell, this kiss is divine.~

~

She was putting everything in one kiss, what she couldn’t say with her words. She was still keeping herself away from me because of Lisa.

I wanted to tell her that with her or without her, I wouldn’t accept Lisa. There was no one for me in this world except her.

She tilted her head and deepened the kiss. Grabbing her by the hips, I carried her to the bed and laid her gently on it. She looked up with her eyes full of desire, something raw and carnal.

Our energy was buzzing all around us.

I wanted to make sweet love to her, ravishing and exploring every inch of her body with my lips all night, making this day special.

But the stunt she’d pulled in the car had made me lose all control, like gasoline added to an already out-of-control fire.

I stared at her. Her gorgeous young tits were standing up in a proud display. Her legs were wide open for me, and she was showing me her tight little pink pussy.

I took off my clothes like they were on fire. Electricity shot between us as I stared into her eyes. I stepped in closer and climbed on the bed to hover over her.

“I love you so fucking much,” I whispered and crashed my mouth down on hers, and time felt like it stopped as our tongues danced the moment they touched, winding around and tasting, as my fingers wove through her hair.

I kissed along her jawline, her neck, chest. My mouth instantly latched to her nipples, and I sucked them both until they were pebbles.

I made my way down to her pussy, kissing every inch of her body, wanting to taste it again, ignoring her pleas to fuck her.

“Oh God, Xavier, I need your cock badly!” she growled, getting impatient.

I laughed a deep rumbling laugh deep from my stomach, which earned me a glare from her.

And then she attacked me, rolling me over to lie on top of me. Kissing me like her life depended on it, she positioned my cock near her entrance.

“Not now!” I growled and slapped her ass twice before flipping us over, so she was again where I wanted her, beneath me.

I kissed her again, slower, more delicate and defined, less frantic and desperate, but with the same intensity and passion.

“I want you,” she moaned.

“You have me,” I groaned, claiming her lips again. I grabbed her leg and angled it upward, bending her knee so that her foot rested on my ass and thrust my cock inside in one strong push.

“Oh, fuck!” she screamed. I pulled out, and she growled, glaring at me.

I winked and slowly slid inside again. She groaned as I filled her, spreading her wide open. I started fucking her a little faster, a little harder with each pump of my hips.

I felt like a fucking animal marking my territory.

“So tight, so perfect,” I groaned, thrusting deeper. It felt so damn good to be inside her. As I began to build up a rhythm, she moaned with pleasure and stared up at me with lust in her eyes.

“Xavier, you feel so good,” she moaned. My dick pushed in and out, in and out, faster and faster until neither of us could hold back.

We were frantic, kissing and tasting each other like we couldn’t get enough of each other.

Her breathing began to speed up as she dug her nails into my back. Her pussy clamped around my cock, and I let out a groan.

My balls clenched as I felt it coming. It was a building. Strengthening. The tension mounted with every slide of her wet pussy.

Her arms were wrapped tightly around my neck, molding her body to me so that we began and ended together.

“Xavier, you’re not wearing a condom,” she said.

For a second I stopped. “You are on the pill?”

She nodded.

“You feel so good, so right.” It really felt good skin to skin. I could feel her warmth, her tightness. I growled, pushing into her faster and harder, digging my fingers into her ass.

Her moans turned to yells and then earth-shattering screams as she came, squeezing her legs so tightly around my hips. I didn’t stop. I continued fucking her, harder and faster.

“Fuck,” I roared as I came hard, filling her with my seed and kissing her a long time. I held her in my arms after we cleaned up, not wanting to give her any chance to escape once again.

^PRESENT^

I awoke with a start, my head spinning in confusion. I looked around for Melody, only to realize I had been dreaming.

My vision was still hazy from sleep. The pounding on my door grew louder with each knock. I sighed, standing, and looked down at my hand.

I was still holding the necklace in my fist. I rubbed my tired face, placing it back in my pocket.

I answered the door. Asher was standing there with a frown. “I’m warning you for the last time before we take off. Stay away from Melody. I don’t want any drama at my wedding,” he hissed.

Without saying anything, I closed the door again and leaned against it.

After my actions at the engagement party, Dan had broken up with Asher, but a few days later, Dan had gone back, and they were together again.

Asher didn’t want to take any chances of losing him, so they were getting married next week in Las Vegas. Before the wedding, they wanted a vacation and a bachelor party.

So we were leaving tonight for Las Vegas, and Melody would be there too, with her friends. My heart raced at the thought of seeing her soon. One week in Las Vegas with Melody.

How the fuck could I stay away from her? What if she was single again?

My chest was so tight with anxiety that I could barely breathe. And how the fuck was I going to control myself after dreaming about her and our time together?

I’d nearly lost control the last time I had been in Sydney to leave Mila with her grandparents. I hadn’t known Melody lived there; it had been just a coincidence.

When I’d first seen her at a shopping mall, she’d looked as beautiful as I’d remembered, maybe even more. I’d thought it was a hallucination.

Then I’d seen her in a bar with her friend on Friday night, wearing a body-hugging pencil skirt that showed her perfect, mouth-watering ass and a white shirt that showed her cleavage.

I’d wanted to pull the shirt down and take her nipple in my mouth, tasting her skin again. That had been a coincidence too.

But when I’d seen her the third time, in Carter’s office, it had felt like it was some kind of omen, but as always, I’d ignored it again, because I had to think about Mila before thinking about myself.

It had taken everything in my power to control my emotions, but I’d done it because of Mila.

My phone rang in my pocket, and I fished it out. I frowned. When I saw that it was a number I didn’t recognize, I felt my stomach twist.

I swiped to answer and placed the phone to my ear. “Xavier speaking.”

“You are not coming with us,” Dan hissed on the other end of the line. “If you care about Mel, as you said, you will let her enjoy this trip.”

I took a deep breath, beginning to pace the room. “I want her to enjoy the vacation—” He cut me off again.

“Yes, that’s what I’m saying. She won’t be able to enjoy it if you’re there, so cancel your ticket and tell Asher you aren’t coming,” he hissed.

I could prove myself to him if he’d let me, but all he wanted to see was the negative side to me. Yes, I’d made a mistake, and I was paying for it, more than I deserved.

It was the only chance I would get with Melody, and I didn’t want to lose it.

“You need to back the hell off,” I snarled. The anger within me was rising like an erupting volcano. “If Melody doesn’t want me there, she can tell me. You can’t make decisions for her.”

“She won’t say anything. We both know that she will think about me and Asher before thinking about herself,” Dan growled.

I sighed.

Dan was right, she wouldn’t say anything.

I wished I could turn back time to seven years ago and make the right choice.

“Okay, I won’t come. She can enjoy her vacation.” I ended the call without another thought. I was so angry that I felt like I could explode.

I placed my hand back in my pocket and clutched the necklace tightly. “I gave you one chance to move on without me, but now I’m coming for you, my love. I will make you fall for me again,” I vowed.

No matter what Dan did or said, I was going to get her. And when I did, he’d be sorry he’d ever tried to stand in my way.
