Chapter Nineteen
Ryder
“I said I love you.” I sigh. “Madison, you’re the piece of my heart I never knew I was missing.” The words come much easier than I thought they would, in fact, they weren’t hard to say at all. It just felt...right. Only seeing the shocked expression on her face has me thinking twice about leaving myself so exposed to get hurt. If she’s going to rip my heart out and have me regret what I just told her, I might as well give her the chance to get it over with now. The sooner I know how she truly feels about me the better. Though I don’t know how I’m going to handle her rejection. If she were any other woman I wouldn’t give a shit, but this is Madison we’re talking about here. The woman who has turned me into a perfect picture of monogamy. There is no other woman for me. My heart has been branded by her for life. I used to think people who talked about falling in love at first sight were full of shit. One look into Madison’s eyes made me a believer, only I didn’t realize it until this very moment.
Waiting for her to answer me is driving me insane. Every second that ticks by is another second my hope for a real chance at love deflates. I can’t take it anymore. I have to talk so she stops staring at me like she is. “Say something Madison.”
She blinks rapidly, her blank stare shoved away and replaced by the affectionate gaze I’ve become accustomed to. “I don’t know what to say.”
I skim the pad of my thumb over her slightly parted lips. My mouth is a hair’s breadth away from hers and the heat radiating between us has me climbing the walls, itching to touch her. “Say you love me. Say you hate me. Just say something and stop looking at me like that. Her features soften and the coy smile tugging at the corner of her mouth has me rock hard.
“How am I looking at you?”
“Like you want me to lift you up onto this counter and slide my cock into your soaked pussy. Now, are you going to say something, or am I going to have to fuck it out of you?”
Her cheeks blush at the blunt harshness of my words and she sucks her bottom lip between her teeth. She takes my hand, slowly guiding me down the hall to her room. I don’t pull her back, I just let her lead me as if I were in a trance induced magic spell. When we reach the room she crooks her finger, beckoning me inside. Closing the door softly behind us, she locks it and pushes me backward until my back hits the wall. Her hands glide down my stomach to the hem of my shirt, raising the fabric to my chest so I can lift my arms out of it. Before I can get it over my head, her mouth is on me, placing scorching kisses over my heated skin. I let my shirt fall to the floor and spear my fingers in her thick hair as her warm, wet tongue skates across my pierced nipple.
She gives me a teasing bite over my rib, continuing the trail down my stomach until her mouth is lingering over the button of my jeans. When she drops to her knees, my whole world turns upside down. My stomach flips, the muscles between my shoulder blades bunching, my cock twitching in anticipation. The sight of her kneeling before me with her delicate fingers unfastening my pants takes my breath away. I wind my hands in her hair, savoring the moment as each soft curl glides through my fingers. She fists the waistband of both my jeans and boxer briefs, pulling them down in one swift motion. My cock springs free, the tip already glistening with a bead of pre-cum. Peering up at me, her fiery gaze meets mine, the usual soft blue of her eyes now the color of sapphires. Those precious jewels sparkle despite the dim lighting in the room and I feel a sense of satisfaction knowing I’m the cause of her desire. She licks the sensitive piercing and I sway a bit from the dizzying need coursing through my body. I don’t know how much more I can take, but if she continues to torture me like this, I’ll be done before we even get started.
With her palms flat on my hips, she swipes her tongue over the head with one long, languid stroke. Her lids slowly close and when she opens her eyes again, her next words send me reeling.
“I love you Ryder.”
“I love...” The quick movement of her head has me gasping for breath as she takes me in her mouth until the head of my cock hits the back of her throat. I pull her hair, fisting it at the roots. “Shit.” I can’t take my eyes off her. Watching her mouth glide over my hard cock causes fire to blaze through my veins. She’s sucking me so hard, the relentless rhythm of her tongue elicits a strangled groan to escape my throat. “Oh fuck Peaches.” I lean my head back against the wall, trying to hold on to what little restraint I have left so I don’t come, but her mouth, God her fucking mouth is so wet, so fucking warm. She swirls her tongue, sucking me in even deeper and my balls pull up begging for release. She has me so fucking worked up I can barely breathe. “If you keep this up you’re gonna make me come.”
Smiling at me with those beautiful eyes of hers, she pulls back, her voice dripping with desire. “Then come.”
“No, I…”
“Yes, you can. Now give me what I want.”
“Mmm, fuck baby. You talking dirty with that pretty mouth of yours is so damn sexy.” Though I would give my left arm to hear her say more filthy things, I don’t give her a chance to speak again. I slide into her mouth, draw back a little, then slip back in over and over until the familiar electrifying tingle that Madison is the sole source of, races down my spine. My release comes fast, and she moans around my cock as I spill my load in her mouth. I massage her scalp as she swallows everything I give her and I ground out a satisfied moan of my own.
