Chapter 20

She was glad when they left the party and arrived at what would now be her new home. She wasn’t expecting him to carry her inside, but she liked it. To her, it was so sexy when a man did that; it was a turn-on. Then when he got her upstairs and placed her down on her feet, she started removing her dress, not wanting him to wreck it. He stood there watching her, and it felt like she was doing a striptease just for his eyes only. Her eyes went wide when he told her to get rid of the panties and lay on the bed. It wasn’t what he said; it was the demanding way he said it that got her doing it and quickly laid down. She felt the wetness pooling between her legs as he stared at her with lust in his eyes.

She lay there seductively, slowly swiping her tongue over her bottom lip. “Why am I the only one naked?”

“You won’t be for long. I just want to look at you for a few minutes,” he said as he slowly started to remove his clothes. Once he was naked, he climbed slowly up the bed over her.

She reached up and stroked his chest, moving her hands along his well-defined abs. To think that after one drunken nightstand with a stranger, she had found the love of her life. He was everything she could ever want in a man; he was smart and successful. Not only that, he was drop-dead gorgeous and one hell of a great lover. He wasn’t a selfish lover; he always made sure she was totally satisfied before he was. There was always plenty of foreplay, whereas some guys never bothered to pleasure a woman before taking what they wanted.

She loved it when he kissed her neck; there was just something so sexy when a man did that. Her core was throbbing like crazy when she felt his manhood rubbing against her pussy as he continued kissing up and down her neck and his one hand massaging her breast. Her body trembled as his lips started moving down, and she knew what he was about to do to her. She opened her legs in anticipation of the attack between her legs. She was so glad that she shaved when she felt his kisses moving along her pelvic bone and along her folds. He didn’t have to use his fingers; his tongue was doing all the work. Her fingers curled around the bedsheet, her hips jerking as he continued his assault, bringing her to her first orgasm of the night. Even then, he continued to lick, his tongue moving from side to side up and down, causing her to scream and her body to shake and tremble. Oh, how she loved this man so much she thought when he moved his body over top of hers as she wrapped her arms around him.

He absolutely loved the way she was enjoying what he was doing to her, and to hear her moan and scream his name added to his excitement. He looked down at her and smiled. “Now do you want it slow and easy, or fast and hard?”

“Both,” she replied, stroking his chest.

“Oh, so you’re going to make me work hard for it, are you?”

“Are you not up to the challenge, boss?” she said with a wicked smirk on her face.

“I like it when you call me boss in the bedroom. I will give you what you want, but don’t complain later when you are raw and sore down there. Take a deep breath, baby, because here it comes.”

She swiped her tongue over her bottom lip once again, a look of pure pleasure appeared on her face when she felt him entering her. It felt so amazing how hard he was and how he started off slowly as he moved up and down inside her. Her hands were on his lower back; she let out a loud moan when he started thrusting faster inside her only to slow down again. Every time she was about to orgasm, he would slow down, causing her to groan in disappointment. She could feel him throbbing inside her, heard him grunting and calling her name as he kissed her neck while still thrusting inside her. Even when she finally let loose and had her next orgasm, he continued thrusting harder and faster inside her.

“Now come with me, baby,” he moaned into her mouth as he kissed her. He gave her as many orgasms as he could before he knew that he could not wait another minute to get his own release. But this time, he wanted them to come together, and when he felt she was, he gave two really hard thrusts inside her and shot his load, collapsing on top of her from exhaustion. “Rosalee, oh damn baby that was amazing.”

“It was so amazing,” she purred softly into his neck. He was so right; she was sore, but it was a good sore.

He rolled off of her and onto his back, then turned his head to look at her and intertwined his fingers with hers. “You have no idea how hard it was for me to wait so long to take you. But man, was it ever worth the wait. I love you.”

Her eyes sparkled when she smiled back at him. “I love you too. Maybe we should take a shower before going to sleep and change the sheets because we really made quite a mess of them.”

“Nah, we’re only going to make a mess of them in the morning. Besides, I’m too tired now to move.”

When they woke up a few short hours later, they went right into the shower, and there they washed each other down. Taking the soap in her hand, she lathered him up, moving down his body to his manhood. After cleaning it, she got down on her knees and took him into her mouth. He steadied himself by leaning against the wall and placed the palms of his hands on top of her head as it moved up and down his shaft. “Rosalee, oh that feels so good,” he moaned when she continued moving her tongue along the tip before slowly sliding her mouth over it until she had taken him all in. Her head bobbed up and down; it wasn’t long before she felt him releasing and heard his loud moans as he ran his fingers through her hair, tugging lightly.

When she was done, he pulled her up and pinned her up against the wall. His lips came down hard and forceful on hers. Damn if he didn’t get hard again, lifting her one leg up, he entered her and started thrusting until they both released together. It may have been quick and fast, but it was still amazing. Pulling out, he placed his hands on her hips and pulled her close to him and began kissing her passionately. He felt her slender arms snaking around his neck as she returned his kiss with as much heat and passion as he was. The way her body was pressed against him and the way her tongue was teasing the inside of his mouth got him horny again, and damn if he didn’t want her once again. Breaking the kiss, he turned her around, grabbed her wrists, and placed the palm of her hands against the wall and gently kicked her legs apart. Taking his cock in his hand, he placed himself inside her from behind and began thrusting. He held on to her hips as he pounded inside her; it was like he was addicted to sex with her, he couldn’t get enough. But now he was totally drained and couldn’t go another round even if his life depended on it. Pulling out, he turned her around, his arms going around her waist, he pulled her in for another kiss.

When he released her, she kept her arms around his neck. “Hold me and don’t let go of me,” she said, resting her head on his shoulder. There was no way she could stand up on her own, and she needed him for support.

Later that morning, they headed out to go collect her belongings from Eve’s apartment. When they got there, and while she was packing up her belongings, Ace and Brett sat down and talked while waiting for her.

“So I guess you will be heading out tomorrow?” Ace asked.

“Yes, I’ll be heading out early in the morning, and hopefully, I’ll be back in a few weeks on leave, and soon after my tour is done, then I’m back for good.”

“I really admire you for what you’re doing for your country, and just be safe when you’re there.”

“I will, and thank you. And you just make sure that you take good care of Rosalee. She’s a very sweet young woman.”

Ace couldn’t help but smile. “Yes, she is, and I’ll make sure that she’s happy.”

When Eve and Rosalee came from the bedroom carrying the suitcases and a box, the men carried them down to the car. Since her car was at the apartment, Ace said he would go ahead and take her stuff to their home, and that would give her a chance to spend a few minutes alone with Brett and Eve.

Rosalee gave Brett a big hug and a kiss on the cheek. “Now don’t you go getting hurt and come back safe and sound. Thank you for being such a good friend to me, and I do love you.”

He put his arms around her and gave her a big hug, almost squeezing the life out of her. “Don’t you worry, I’m always careful, and I have someone very special in my life to come home to. I also have a very special friend that I want to see when I get back, and that’s you, sweetheart. I love you too, and I want you to do me a favor.”

She looked at him as a single tear slid down her cheek. “Anything, just name it.”

“Keep an eye on Eve for me and make sure she’s okay.”

“Of course, I will. I better get going so that you and Eve can spend some alone time together. When you come back on leave, you make sure you call, and we’ll all get together.”

After a tearful goodbye and saying her goodbyes to Eve, she got in her car and drove to her new home and to the man that she loved with all of her heart.

When Ace arrived home, he took all of her stuff up to their bedroom. He didn’t mean to snoop, but since the box was open, he glanced inside, and a picture caught his attention. Taking it out, he looked at it. It was a picture of a man and a woman and a girl around nine years old. He knew then that this had to be her as a young girl with her mother and father. They all looked so happy, and he couldn’t understand how her father could disown her just because she wanted to start a brand new life. He placed the picture frame back in the box and went to his closet and started rearranging things. He had to make room for her clothes, knowing how women love their clothes. He made a mental note to himself to have an extra closet built-in for her alone to use. After he arranged his stuff, he went to the one dresser and removed the clothes from it and placed them in the other dresser so that she would have one for herself.

When she got home, she didn’t see him anywhere, so she went upstairs and saw him rearranging his dresser. “So what’s going on here?”

Hearing her voice, his heart started beating, and he turned to look at her. “I’ve made room for your clothes in my closet, and I’m just taking these things out of here and putting them in the other one. So this dresser is all just for you.”

“That’s very thoughtful of you.” She went over to the box and looked inside. “Is there somewhere I can put this?”

“Don’t you want to take everything out and put them around? I mean, this is your home, and you should have your stuff out so that you can see them.”

“Maybe later, but I can decide on that later.”

He went over and took the picture frame from the box. “I wasn’t snooping, but I noticed this photo. I’m guessing these are your parents.”

She took the frame from his hand and looked at it. “Yes, that’s my mother and father. This was taken a few weeks before she died.”

“Sweetheart, you really should reach out to your father again.”

“He doesn’t want anything to do with me,” she said, her voice cracked a little with emotion.

“But you’ve got to try again.”

“Just drop it,” she said a little more harshly than she meant to. Feeling bad, she laid the photo down back in the box. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to snap at you. The truth is I have been trying, and every time I call, he just hangs up.”

Seeing how upset she was, he pulled her into his arms and held her. “I’m so sorry, baby. I’m sure that someday he’s going to regret his actions and call you.” He hated seeing her so sad and made up his mind to give her father a call and try to talk some sense into him. But of course, he wasn’t going to tell her in case her father still refused to have anything to do with her.

She looked up at him with tears in her eyes. “I do miss him, but I have you.”

With loving fingers, he stroked the side of her cheek. “Yes, you do, and I promise you that will never change. Now, how about you put your stuff away, and I’ll go downstairs and order us some takeout and open a bottle of wine to celebrate you moving in here, to your new home.”

“I’d like that,” she said, giving him a kiss before he left the room.
