I drag myself out of her arms. “Then sit down and let me serve you.”
Embyr walks over to the cabinet, pulling a mug out and pouring herself a cup of coffee. “Not before this. I need some caffeine.”
As I watch her open my fridge for creamer and my other cabinet for sugar, I’m happy with how comfortable she is at my place.
She catches me staring. “What are you smiling at?”
I shrug, turning back to the bacon on the stove. “Nothing. Just glad you remember where everything is.”
She grows quiet, so after I finish pulling the bacon off the pan I turn back to her. She’s lost in thought. “Orgasm for your thoughts.” I inwardly laugh.
She shakes her head at me. “You’re crazy.”
I lean over the counter, placing a kiss on her lips. “I am. Now what were you just thinking about?”
Her finger taps on the side of her cup. “You said you were happy I remembered where things were here. It’s just, I couldn’t forget anything. Every day since you left I’ve thought about you, this place, the fire station. Everywhere we have gone and everything we did played on a loop in my head. I thought I was doing okay but now that I’m here with you, and we’re working on things, I’m just sad to have missed out on you for the past couple months.” She lowers her head. “All because I couldn’t tell you the truth.”
I take the seat beside her, drawing her into me. “Em, I’m going to be honest, since that’s what we’re going for.” She wipes a stray tear from her cheek. “If you would have told me the truth before I found out from Ian’s envelope, we may have ended apart anyway. It was a mind fuck to my system. That whole time I was with you, I was looking for Annie. Looking for you. I felt like a terrible person. I wasn’t sure what my intentions were but I knew that I was falling for you. I sometimes couldn’t sleep at night knowing that maybe once I found Annie, that I’d be torn between the two of you. To find out that you all were one in the same was a complete and total mind fuck. It’s the only way to describe it. No matter if you told me, or Ian, or even Reece. I think my reaction would have been the same. I hate that we were apart but maybe we needed it. We’re starting over now. Fresh start. No lies. No more omissions. Just you and me, and our reboot.”
More tears stream down her face. “Thank you for giving me a second chance.”
I turn her body toward me and secure myself between her legs. The shirt of mine she’s wearing rides up. It’s all I can do not to lift it up and take her here. But she needs to talk. “Thank you for giving me one too.”
She shakes her head. “No lies.”
“No lies.” I confirm.
“No secrets.”
“No.”
“No grudges because I can’t move forward if I’m not sure all this will come up again.”
My thumbs swipe over her thighs. “No grudges.”
Her hands pull on the bottom of her shirt, placing it high enough for me to see she’s not wearing any underwear. “Casen, I have one more thing.”
“Okay,” I automatically respond because I can’t think straight with her pussy bared to me, mere inches away from my covered cock. My calloused palms slide up her thighs, my thumbs meeting in the middle.
“You asked me last night if I had been with anyone since you.”
My heart begins to beat out of my chest, my blood pressure rising. Did she lie? I don’t think I can deal with knowing another man has made her come or been inside her. “I did, and you said you hadn’t.”
She must be able to tell by the look on my face and my unmoving fingertips that I assume she lied to me about it. “I told you the truth.” She confirms.
Tension releases from my body.
“But,” she continues, “I need to know if you’ve been with someone else since. I told myself I wouldn’t ask, but it’s been on my mind, and I’m now prepared for the answer.”
“No,” I answer, grabbing the bottom of my shirt and throwing it over her head, leaving her completely nude. I dip down, taking a nipple into my mouth. “No one else has had my tongue on them since you.” I rub a finger over her clit. “No other woman has had my fingers bring her pleasure.” I kiss her. “No lips have caressed mine, besides yours, since the day I re-met you.”
She smiles behind the kiss.
I grab behind her thighs and carry her over to the couch, placing her gently down on the edge. I stand tall, pulling my shorts and boxers off, and watch her hungry eyes take me in, before coming down to my knees. She reaches for me, using her hand to align my cock with her pussy. I push in, and it’s like I’m giving her the best drug she’s ever had. Her eyes roll back and she pushes my ass, forcing me to go deep inside her.
I lean in, biting her ear before whispering, “No woman has had my cock so fucking far inside them since the first time it was inside you, Embyr, and if I have it my way, no woman ever will.”
