Chapter 30

Same day

Lexi’s mouth falls open and she closes her eyes as deep, guttural groans release from her.

I trace the shell of her ear with my mouth. “Is my deviant girl gonna come again?”

“Yes,” she breathlessly whispers. It’s barely audible as her body tenses. “You feel so good.”

“Mmm. You’re mine.” I suck on her earlobe, pumping harder inside of her.

She pants, and her back lifts off the ground as she lets go. The orgasm rips through her and her pussy contracts so tight around me that I nearly see stars.

A growl releases from her chest as I slam into her. I’m so damn close as I capture her lips, so I slow my pace. My eyes slam shut as I sink myself deep, letting the orgasm take control. I am nothing and everything with Lexi, and I don’t know how I’ll be able to let her go. I roll over onto my back and pull her close to me, kissing her hair as she rests her head on my chest. Our breathing is ragged, and our hearts race.

I pull out to take the condom off and notice it’s not there. “Fuck,” I whisper, making sure I’m not imagining it.

Alexis sits up with hooded eyes. “What is it?”

“The condom.” I shake my head.

“Where is it?”

I remove the rubber ring from my cock. The bottom half is missing.

“Oh,” she whispers, putting two and two together. “I’m not on birth control, Easton. I had no reason to be, but I think it will be fine. I can’t get pregnant; I’ve tried before. For years. And I was tested for every STD after I was cheated on.”

“I’m so sorry, darling.”

She stands up, revealing the broken condom on the blanket.

Lexi dresses and I do the same.

I move in front of her and grab her cheeks, noticing she’s upset. “Babe, I’m not marrying you to give me an heir. I don’t care about that.” I drop to my knees in front of her, peeling her shirt up and kissing her stomach. “You’re perfect, just the way you are.”

She wraps her arms around my head, pressing me against her as I inhale the sweetness of her sweaty skin. Her fingers twirl in my hair.

“You said you wanted kids with the right person,” she mutters. “That’s on repeat in my head.”

“When that time comes, there are ways. But if you think that makes me want you less, you’re fucking mistaken. It changes nothing for me.”

She drops to the ground so she’s in front of me. “You promise?”

“Yes,” I say without hesitation, sliding my hand behind her neck and pulling her in for a kiss. “Raw truths, Lexi.”

“Okay,” she whispers, painting her lips across mine. Her fingers press into my cheek as the kiss deepens. “I don’t deserve you.”

“That’s where you’re wrong,” I say, nuzzling my nose against hers.

Her phone buzzes on the blanket, and she presses the button on the side. “The alarm I set for midnight. Happy day fifteen.”

I chuckle as we stand.

Lexi looks up and points. “The Milky Way.”

I shove my hand in her back pocket, holding her against me. “Incredible. I guess we can mark under the star love-making off our bucket list.” I smirk.

She gasps. “Oh, you’re right. But we might have to replace it with another.”

“Fuck, I love the sound of that. What do you have in mind?”

“Your office.”

I shake my head. “You’re searching for trouble.”

She wraps her arms around me. “I’ve already found him.”

When the Milky Way is high above, we make our way back to the B & B with swollen lips and smiles on our faces as fireflies surround us.

“So, it’s officially day fifteen, and you survived like a warrior princess. However, I still need the answer to my question. Are you anti-love?”

She glances over at me, smirking. “I was until I met you.”

Thirty minutes later, we’re stepping onto the back porch of the B & B.

“Is this the walk of shame?” Weston asks, sitting in the dark with Brody next to him.

“Kindly fuck off,” I snap as I reach for Lexi’s hand, leading her to the door.

“Heard you beat the shit out of her brother,” Weston says, and Brody chuckles. “I got questioned about it at the diner.”

I turn to Lexi. “You weren’t kidding about news spreading around town fast, were you?”

“No,” she admits. “By morning, everyone will know.”

“Thanks for not getting punched in the goddamn face. You still owe me for the last time I had to wear a black eye for your ass,” Weston says.

Lexi walks over to him, gives him the bottle of Fireball, and pats him on the shoulder. “You should really get laid,” she says.

“Holy shit. Was that a burn?” Weston asks, bursting into laughter.

I open the door and lead my woman upstairs. When we walk into our room, I lock the door. After I quickly peel off her shirt, I kiss her shoulder. “Shower with me.”

“I’d love to,” she whispers, looking down at my hands. Her fingers brush across my bruised knuckles. “I can’t believe you exist.”

“Every time I look at you, I think the same.”

I lead her into the bathroom that’s inside our room and finish undressing her. My fingers memorize her naked body as I help her step into the shower. I join her, allowing her to stand under the warm stream as I grab the soap and take my time washing every beautiful inch of her.

“Easton,” she softly says, eyes closed as I massage the shampoo into her scalp. “What happens if I fall in love?”

A ghost of a smile plays on my lips. “With whom?”

“With you,” she whispers, playfully pursing her lips.

I dip her head back under the water, washing the soap from her scalp. “Tell me when it happens, and we’ll go from there.”

“You said when.”

A smirk touches my lips. “I did. I’m waiting for you.”

Birthday countdown: 31 days

Since meeting her: 15 days

Company takeover: 38 days

I wake to my cock in Lexi’s hot mouth and warm hand.

“I’m dreaming,” I whisper, hard and horny, as I lift the sheet, meeting her green eyes.

Starting at the bottom of my balls, she licks up my shaft before twirling her tongue across the tip, licking away the pre-cum. “You started it.”

I laugh. “No, I didn’t.”

“You did. You pressed your cock into my ass and woke me up.” She wraps her hand around me, stroking while her mouth sucks me.

“Fuck,” I whisper with a grunt.

The early sunrise barely lights the room, but it’s enough. Lexi is relentless, increasing her pace before slowing. My balls tighten and I don’t know how much longer I’ll be able to hold back as she continues to work me so damn good. I throw the blankets off of us as she tries to take me all the way down her throat. Her fingers dig into my thighs and my muscles tense.

“Lexi,” I say.

“Please,” she begs, tracing her lips with my cock, and, fuck, it’s a sight to see. “I want to taste you.”

I grab the sheets with my fists as I empty inside her mouth. She drinks me down, swallowing every drop, then swirls her finger on the tip, not wasting any of me.

“I think I’m addicted too.”

I grin, pulling her up to me and allowing her to rest on my chest. “My turn.”

“You know you’re the only man who’s ever done that?”

I lick my lips. “I love knowing I’ll be the last too.”

“Too cocky,” she says.

I grab her wrist, gently tugging her toward me so I can kiss her lips.

“Deny it,” I dare her. “You and I both know the avalanche can’t be stopped, Lexi. Enjoy yourself.”

I slide down the bed, staying on my back. She’s wearing my T-shirt and a paper-thin pair of panties—if they can even be called that. They’re mesh, and they leave nothing to the imagination.

She sits on my face, missionary-style, her thighs on each side of my head.

I peel the panties to the side and my tongue parts her pussy until my mouth is fully on her clit. Lexi sinks into me as I grip her ass with my hands. I hum against her, encouraging her to find sexual freedom with me. Her hands tug at my hair as her mouth falls open. High-pitched moans release from her, and with the house being so quiet, I wouldn’t be surprised if they echo. I pat her ass and she looks down at me, realizing she lost control. We lost control.

She bites the corner of her lip and tweaks her nipple. Another moan releases and she places her hand over her mouth, rocking against me. I slow my pace, knowing she’ll come at any second by how her body shakes with anticipation. I keep her on the edge until she nearly crumbles to dust. Gliding two fingers deep inside of her wet cunt, I wage war against her clit. Moments later, she quickly loses herself on my mouth.

“Easton,” she screams out, and I laugh against her pussy as she fucks my face, fully riding out her orgasm.

She falls next to me in bed, and we stay in each other’s arms until we’ve both come down from our high.

I kiss her forehead. “Would you like to join me for breakfast?” I ask.

“I’d love to,” she says, but we don’t move.

I don’t know how much time passes as we hold each other, but I’m not counting.

“Great. We need to discuss our game plan for our meeting with the mayor tomorrow,” I say, kissing her forehead.

“You’re too good to me,” she says with fire in her eyes, and I kiss the tip of her nose.

After we’re dressed, we make our way downstairs and find Weston in the living room, reading a magazine with a longhorn on the cover.

“Now, this is the walk of shame.”

“Who’s ashamed?” Lexi turns to me. “Are you?”

“Fuck no,” I say, twirling the Mustang keys around my finger. “We’ll be back later.”

When we’re on the porch, I take the steps with Lexi. “Do you want to drive?”

“You’re after my heart, aren’t you?” she playfully asks as she scoops the keys from my hand.

I open the driver’s door. “You know it.”

We make our way inside the tiny diner, and when we enter, a gray haired woman greets us with a big smile.

“You’re back again? Seems like you’re gonna be a regular in here with how many times I’ve seen you in the past twelve hours.”

Lexi giggles as we’re sat at a table by the windows.

“Coffee, black?” the server asks.

“Yes, that would be great,” I tell her with a grin, and then I turn to Lexi, who’s sitting beside me.

“I’ll take the same,” she says.

When we’re alone, she laughs while scanning over the menu, but I’m sure she has it memorized.

“No telling how flirty Weston was with everyone in here last night, considering how he acted with me.”

“Sometimes, it has its perks,” I tell her. “Like when we’re at business events and I disappear.”

“Do you do that often?” she asks.

“I can only pretend for so long,” I tell her, but she already knows that.
