Chapter 18

Hill

Kody Lawton was in love with me.

Hearing her say the words, hearing the truth in them, was enough to help me ignore any discomfort coming from the parts of me that were currently a little worse for wear. If I moved wrong, I lost my breath as my side protested. If she moved wrong, I felt it in my injured leg and hip. The timing was not ideal to show her exactly how her words made me feel, but there was also no holding back the emotions, or the response, in every single part of my being.

I wanted all of her, touching all of me, because I felt her love all over. My heart seemed like it was taking up too much space inside my chest. My mind, which was always whirring and buzzing, finally felt still and calm. Every thought, every feeling was focused on the woman in my arms. Obviously my body reacted to having her close. My dick didn’t care if my ribs had seen better days. Desire pulsed slow and hard in my belly, overshadowing the flare of pain trying to make itself known.

A smoldering warmth also worked its way underneath my skin. Flickering flames of want blazing along my nerve endings, making me acutely aware of the way we were pressed together and how little clothing I was wearing. I’d never considered myself a tactile person, but as always, Kody was the exception to the rule. I couldn’t get enough of her touch, or enough of having my hands on her. It felt like I was holding my entire future in the palms of my hands.

As I moved her, I knew we were going to have to take this slow. Be careful and deliberate. We had to appreciate the little things about one another, the subtle movements, the longing looks and lingering touches. Whenever I got the opportunity to get my hands on her, I felt like it was a race to the finish line. I wanted to cram as much into those moments as possible because there was never a guarantee she wasn’t going to pull away, both emotionally and physically. Things between the two of us had always been on Kody’s terms. I’d always let her lead and followed behind obediently because I believed it was the right thing to do. I wanted her to be happy. To find love again, even if it wasn’t with me. Now that I knew it was only with me she could achieve either of those things, I felt like I had time.

Time to savor her.

Time to learn all about her, what she liked, what she didn’t.

Time to figure out how to make her lose her mind and beg for more.

Time to make her feel like there was no way she could live without me, because I knew there was no way I could return to the way I’d been living before getting swept up in her. The future was uncertain. I had a bad feeling trouble was going to come back around and bite her in the ass.
