7. Lexi

CHAPTER 7

Lexi

I ’m breathless. Max’s short, dark hair is tousled and his face glistens with my juices. My face heats because everyone just saw us, heard us. They all know what we were doing.

I hide my face in the pillow but Max grabs me by my chin, gently but firmly, removing the pillow. “Do you not want this?”

I shake my head.

“I need the words, angel.”

“No. I’m just…everyone down there saw your…”. I point at his face and he wipes at it then licks his fingers. I flush darker. “Mmm. I don’t give a damn what they saw. You’re mine and they all need to know it.”

“But what if it doesn’t work out?”

He cocks his head. “Don’t you trust me, angel? Do you think I’d throw you out? No fucking way. If something happens, I’ll give you the fucking apartment. Hell, I’ll give you the bar!”

I shake my head. “No way! This place is yours.”

He leans down and kisses me hard, his big chest brushing my body and setting off firecrackers. “If something happens, I will make sure that you’re taken care of. You will never worry that you’re gonna be alone again. I will always be in your corner, always be watching out for you. My heart will always be yours. Hold it in your hands and keep it safe because it’s never gonna be anyone’s but yours. I’ll hold yours safe too. There’s nothing I wouldn’t do to take care of you and make you happy, angel. If I ever hurt you it will kill me. It won’t happen. It can’t happen.”

“I’m so scared, Max.”

“We can wait. I don’t want to push you, angel.”

I shake my head. “I want you. I do. I’m just. I don’t know.”

He comes down across me and the feel of his hard body pushing against me, driving me into the soft mattress spikes the hunger I’ve been avoiding for so long. Since I first saw him I’ve wanted him. Needed him.

“No, can’t wait. Please, Max.”

He lifts himself up and shucks his jeans off. His bare chest comes down on my shirt and he growls. “Lose it or I’ll rip it off.”

My fingers shake as I struggle to pull the sweater over my head. He growls and then pulls it off, the seams straining. “Pants. Now.” Shivering at the heady sound of his growl I unzip them and push them down, my panties following them down. They get stuck at my boots and he grunts, yanking at them then tugging my jeans off, grunting and growling like a wild animal.

His heated dark eyes drift down my body lazily, hungrily. He licks his full lips and my core clenches. I ache. I can’t take much more of this want.

Desire licks at me as he grunts and his head dips and his lips wrap around my nipple and his tongue lashes the diamond tip. My pussy clenches, aching, needing him to fill me up.

My fingers tangle in his soft curls and he grunts, growling and tugging at my nipple, his teeth scraping it until I’m breathless. “Max, please….” What am I begging for? I don’t know. All I know it that if he doesn’t get inside me within the next minute I’m gonna lose my mind. “Please. Now. Now!”

He chuckles and his breath dances across my heated skin. “Not gonna push me, angel. I’ve been dreaming about touching all of this body. Now that I’ve got it I’m taking my time. Savoring you. Like the fine wine you are.”

I suck in a breath when my core clenches painfully, yearning for something deep inside me. “Max, please get that dick inside me.”

He just laughs roughly and continues, trailing kisses down my body until he’s perched right above my pussy. His teasing gaze locks on me. “Look how perfectly pretty your pussy is when it needs my dick.”

I groan and cover my eyes with my hands when he flicks his tongue along my seam. Then his fingers pull my lips apart and he grunts as he roughly takes what he wants, what I need.

“Yes, yes, yes!” I chant wildly, my hips bumping into his face. He grunts and pushes my hips down, his tongue scouring out my slick walls.

The room goes white and fuzzy and my whole body clenches down on his tongue. He licks and sucks and then another wave washes over me and I groan, my body going limp and shaky.

He rears up and lines his thick, girthy length up with my weeping seam. The thick head of his cock parts my lower lips and I gasp, my whole body tightening, locking down on him.

“Let me in, baby girl. Let me have what’s mine.”

My fingers claw at his back and arms and my head falls back. “S-so big. Oh my god!”

The strain, the burn, the ache as he buries himself in me. Tears well in my eyes and he grunts and leans down, stilling his invasion as he kisses my tears. “I’m so sorry, angel. I hurt you and it’s killing me. Maybe we should stop…”

“No.” I slam my hips up into him and scream as he tears through the thin barrier.

“Oh fuck! Dammit, what have you done, angel.” His harsh growl doesn’t stop me from moving my hips. The ache, the burn, the pain. None of it matters.

I’m his. He’s mine. No take-backs.

“Take me. Make me yours, Max. I need you.” With a growl he kisses me roughly and his body pushes into me over and over again.

Sweat drips off of him and the rough hair of his chest scratches at my sensitive nipples. The room is cold but our bodies are warm.

“Yes, Max. Yes.” My breath pants out and my pussy clenches, my body buzzing. Another hard thrust from him shunts me up the bed and I groan, my whole body tightening, arching up into him. Tension builds, the fire creeps over me and then…

I scream, my head thrown back as I come apart, my eyes closed, my whole body washed over with pleasure. Wave after wave. Dragging at me, clawing at me until I’m drowning in it.

He grunts and pushes deep one..two…three times and then stills, buried deep, grunting. “Lexi, fuck yeah!” His cock jerks over and over and I feel the warmth, the heat from his release filling me. The moment is endless and yet not long enough.

His big, sweaty body falls across me and I grunt, barely able to breathe. He rolls over and tugs me into his arms, my face buried in his chest. His hair tickles my nose but I pant, unable to move.

He laughs and kisses my head. “Damn, that was…amazing, angel.” Then he yawns and his eyes close. Within seconds, his breathing slows and he falls asleep with a smile on his full lips.

And fear ripples down my spine like an icy trickle of water. What if something happens to Max? What if some damn drunk driver takes out the love of my life.

I love him. I love him so damn much that it will kill me if something happens to him. I close my eyes and my dad’s voice begging my mom to wake up plays on an endless loop in my head.

I shove at him, struggling to breathe. I can’t…

I struggle out of the bed and wrestle myself quietly into my clothes. Then I grab my little bag, shoving my things into it. My eyes lock on his big body under the covers. Tears well in my eyes.

No, no, no! I don’t want to leave him. I can’t…

But then that icy trickle is back and I throw the bag over my shoulder and run to the door.

“What the hell are you doing, angel?” I freeze, not turning around. The tears trickle down and I can’t even lift a finger to wipe them away.

“Where do you think you’re going, Lexi? I told you that you’re never getting away from me. I meant it. You go out that door and I’ll follow. I’ll drag you back here time and time again until you’re so sick of it that you don’t have the energy to leave me.”

I rest my forehead on the wood. “I’m so scared, Max. What if something happens to you?” I whisper, choking on the words.

“What if it does?”

“My parents…”. I choke on a strangled sob and I flinch when he touches me, turning me around to face him.

“Angel, I cannot promise that something will never happen to me. Your parents didn’t promise each other that. But do you think that they weren’t scared? If your dad loved your mom half as much as I love you, he must have spent every day terrified that something would take her away from him. But we don’t get a guarantee in this life. And I know that he would have rather spent a small amount of time with her then never meet her. I know this because I feel the same way. It would break me if something happened to you, but I can’t imagine going my whole life without seeing your pretty face just because I was afraid and I let you run. Do you think you can live without me?”

A strangled sob escapes me and I turn and throw myself into his burly arms. “No! I can’t leave you. I swear I’d come back if you didn’t come back for me. I just can’t imagine being without you. I’m so scared.”

He lifts my face gently, his fingers wrapped around my jawline. He kisses my tears and he’s so gentle. So tender it breaks my heart all over again.

“I’m so sorry, Max. I just panicked. I don’t know what’s wrong with me!” I wail.

He shakes his head and his dark eyes are soft. “You need to talk to someone, angel. It’s called survivor’s guilt. I’ve been there and it’s rough. But you’re a fucking strong woman and I know you can find your way through it. And I’ll be right beside you. Every single day every step of the way. Your fights are my fights. We’re a team you and I. Forever, angel.”

My heart soars and I know that he’s right and I’m where I’m supposed to be.

Home.

“I love you, Max.”

His lips cling to mine and I wrap my arms around his thick neck, feeling the scars under my fingertips.

We both have scars. His are on the inside and outside. Mine are hidden but they’re no less.

“I love you too, angel. You’re my Christmas wish come true.”

His lips cling to mine and he pulls me back to the bed, stripping me slowly, gently, his eyes never leaving mine. Looking for even one moment where I’m not sure.

But this time I am sure. It’s gonna take some time, some work. But I’ve got help this time. I’ve got him and this little family that has engulfed me in their lives.

His hands slowly trace my curves and my fingers dance along his muscular body. Each dragged-in breath, each pant brings us closer to what we want and he lays me down, coming down across me, his eyes never leaving mine, his raised brows making me smile.

“I’m not going anywhere this time, Max. You’re right. I can’t spend my whole life afraid of feeling anything. If I have one minute, one hour or ten years with you, it will have to do because I can’t live without you.”

He smiles and my heart swells, chest aching with so much love.

“Good fucking girl, angel.” His body comes down on me and I close my eyes as he slips inside me. I’m sore and the burn is a lot but I don’t care.

I need this. Need to feel like we’re one. Need to know that he’s mine and I’m his and nothing can strip away this feeling.

My head slips back, my eyes rolling back as he pounds into me, his hips snapping into my hips, our bodies lining up, wrapped up in this moment. One perfect piece of time that will never be taken from me.

He grunts and swears and I run my fingers down his chest, tangling them in the thick whorls of hair. The spicy scent of him is all around me.

He drives into me hard, gritting his teeth and growling. Shunting me up the bed until I’m grasping at the headboard to keep from hitting my head.

“Gonna fucking tie you to me as soon as I can, baby girl. You’re mine. Forever.”

Then he stills, his dick pulsing and the warmth of his release filling me up. Filling all the empty, lonely places in my body and my soul.

“Love you so much, Lexi!” He hollers and my body tightens before falling off the cliff, wailing and pulsing around him.

He tugs me close to him and kisses my cheek. “Love you, angel. But if you slip out of this bed again I’m gonna spank your ass red.”

I grin and sigh, my eyes closing. I’ve never felt so safe. So happy.

“Love you too, Max.”

When I’m so close to sleep that I’m not even sure I hear it right, Max whispers, “My tempting little Christmas angel. I love you so much.”

A smile curls my lips and I finally fall asleep, finally home.

Right where I belong.
