Be My Forever: The Complete Series Box Set by Lauren Wood (95)


Chapter 16

Dennis

 

The damn vixen had gotten to me and the hell if she didn’t know it. I was rather surprised when she opened the door wide naked and told me to dry her off. I had made her come. The proof was found sliding down her legs, but it wasn’t enough. I wanted more and I had thought for a moment that it was going to lead to more, but to my chagrin, it did not. Now I was stuck rock hard, sitting next to her in the car. I had to cool my ardor, because we were about to be with other people. It was bad enough that I couldn’t control myself with her. Now I had to shut it off, something I didn’t even know was possible.

Jessica and Sarah were waiting for us when we got there. The two teens were nice enough, but they were far more impressed with the car and having a driver than anything else. I watched Kendra’s face light up when they got in and I started to understand a little better how much she liked her job. She loved the girls, I could see it in her eyes and I again wondered why she hadn’t had children of her own. Kendra would make a great mother. Then again, why was I thinking along those lines? Never before and I knew that it was Kendra that made me think of such domestic things that likely would have bored me in the past.

“So girls we aren’t going to be driving upstate.”

Their smiles vanished and I felt bad all of a sudden. Kendra was of course just playing with them and the smiles returned as soon as she told them that I was nice enough to let them use my plane.

“You have a plane?”

I nodded my head and I could tell that they were impressed. I was already getting the eye from them, so I was glad that I was able to impress someone, although it was always Kendra that I wanted to look at me that way. It took a whole lot more to get Kendra looking at me that way. She took more to be impressed.

“So are you rich or something?”

Kendra broke in, telling Jessica that it wasn’t polite to ask me such a thing. She was always so concerned with manners.

“Yes, you could say that.”

Kendra told them who I was and again I got that look like I must be special. I liked the idea of it all, but Kendra just shook her head and looked out the window. I had a feeling that she wasn’t as worried about it as the girls were.

The ride to the private airstrip didn’t take long at all. The two teens ran ahead to check out the plane, while me and Kendra grabbed out bags and theirs out of the back.

“They are sweet kids.”

She smiled and agreed. “Aren’t they?”

“I can see why you do what you do.”

Her smile softened and she looked up at me. “I know that you don’t like what I do, but I am making a difference. It was what I always wanted. I never want anyone to have the same childhood as me. There is a lot of help for young kids, but once they get to teens, it seems like society gives up on them, but it is now that they need good guidance more than ever.

“They are lucky to have you Kendra.”

Kendra blushed and I could tell that she was embarrassed by my praise. She wasn’t embarrassed that I had just dried every inch of her an hour before, but now she was turning a special shade of pink. What a strange woman indeed. Kendra didn’t seem to have any problem getting me all wired up and then letting me simmer.

“Thanks again for doing this Dennis. I really appreciate it.”

I wanted to ask her if I would get a reward, but then I figured that I would get it one way or another. She had practically begged for it earlier and if I would have not given her the option sooner, I know that I could have had her in the bathroom. As we got in the plane, I figured that it wouldn’t hurt to wait a little longer. Even if I thought I might explode from it.

***

When we got to our destination, I had another car waiting for us and the girls were talking excitedly. Apparently Jessica hadn’t seen her family in several months and she was looking forward to the visit. I could feel the anticipation in both of them. I don’t know if it was because they were happy to be out of that place they lived, but Jessica in particular seemed quite nervous. I wanted to ask questions, but instead I just sat back and let Kendra talk to her.

She was trying to help her calm down and telling her that it was all going to be okay. The girl hugged Kendra and I could tell that the feelings I saw in Kendra’s eyes was reflected back to her. She was happy, but scared. Kendra made her feel better and when we got to the girl’s house, all of her tears were dry and she seemed ready to face the day. I wanted to know the back story, but I knew I was going to have to wait. There was really no telling what I had witnessed, but I knew that it was substantial. It made me look at Kendra in a new way as well.

“Do you want me to stay out here?”

Kendra smiled and nodded her head. “I am going to leave them here for a bit. I just need to go in and make sure everything is going okay first. We can go somewhere after that, just not too far. I want to be here in case anything happens. She has had bad experiences with them in the past.”

I just agreed, not really knowing how to help or what to say. I was out of my element. I could make billions of dollars, but when it comes to emotions and kids, I was out of my league. Kendra didn’t seem to be though. She was calm and listened to all of her worries and reassured her. When they left the car, I was worried about the two of them, as well as Kendra. What sort of problems had she had here? Should I worry about Kendra being in there by herself?

It didn’t take too long for her to come back out. It was about twenty minutes later.

“Sorry that took so long. I wanted to make sure that everything was okay and that they had my number in case anything happens.”

“Don’t worry about it. It wasn’t that long at all. I got a little work done, so I can’t complain.”

Kendra smiled at me. “Thanks for being so understanding about everything Dennis. You have really been great today. We have some time, is there anything that you want to do? There has to be a restaurant around here somewhere. I am starving. Then maybe we can check into the hotel. I don’t know what else there is to do around here.”

Food sounded good and the hotel sounded better. If it was a different time, I would have suggested the hotel and then room service, but once again I didn’t want to go there right now. It didn’t seem like the right time at all for that. I didn’t want to seem like that was all I was thinking about, even though it was the only thing that was on my mind at the moment. I could still see her naked in my mind, standing in the bathroom. I don’t think I was ever going to get the sight of her then out of my head. She was just so beautiful.

“Whatever you want to do.”

“I want to get something to eat. I never was one of the girls that could starve herself. You should know that.”

I chuckled. She was tiny and always had been. I had also seen her out eat me a couple of times and it was surprising. I used to wonder where it all went. Now I knew that it went to the soft curves of her hips and the breasts that were still a little bigger than the rest of her. On occasion, she looked like she was going to topple over completely.

“I know, I remember. That is why I brought food the other day. I thought that it would get me a little better reaction.”

“Well you picked a bad day is all that is. I had a lot going on and you popping up like that was not something that I had a plan for.”

I didn’t like to think about going over there and seeing another man there. It hadn’t sat well with me then and even though I know he left and nothing happened, it didn’t matter. I still didn’t like another man around her. If I had it my way, she wouldn’t have any other men around her at all. I wanted her to be mine and it was the first time that I was actually trying to figure out how I was going to make it happen. Only one thought kept popping up in my head as a sure-fire.

“I did call but you were ignoring me.”

Kendra looked away as we made our way to the restaurant. She was having a full day and I don’t think that I was going to make it any easier asking her all kinds of questions.

We didn’t say much as we drove to the restaurant. Kendra’s mind was elsewhere and while I liked to think that she was thinking about earlier, I knew that it was much more likely that she was thinking about the two teens we had dropped off not too long ago. She was like a worried mother and I wanted to take her mind off of everything for a while.

“Thank you for inviting me Kendra.”

“Thanks for coming. It has been good to not have to drive up alone. I know that Jessica is happy to have Sarah with her for support. They have gotten really close, which they both need.”

I was amazed at how much she cared and understood people. Now if I could just understand her as well as she seemed to understand me. Then it would be a lot easier to know what to do next. But that wasn’t going to happen, so I was just going to have to guess like I imagined most other men in my position did.

We got to the restaurant and I helped her out of the car. She didn’t wait for me, but I was quicker than her. I found a great Italian place in town that I hoped she liked. It had good reviews, but it was the dark lighting that I was looking forward to as we walked in. We needed some time alone and I was hoping that I could convince her of how right we were together. When she said that we came from two different worlds, she was right of course, but that didn’t mean that I was going to let it get to me. I wasn’t going to let it change anything or keep me from who I loved. It was clear to me now how much I loved her. I would do anything for Kendra and the realization took my breath away.

“Are you okay Dennis?”

“Yeah, just got to thinking about something.”

“Well don’t think too hard, you are going to give yourself wrinkles.”

I stopped frowning, but I was still thinking about my last thought. Had it been there the whole time and I hadn’t seen it? Or was that the reason I left in the first place, because I knew that if I had stayed I would have fallen even harder?
