“I want to hate you,” I whisper.  At this point, I’m not sure why I’m egging him on.

“You fucking love me, woman!” he bellows.

Then he brings his hand down, this time harder than each of the previous times.  He doesn’t even pause before rolling his hand over the offended skin and plunging two fingers deep within my waiting body.

“Oh, God!” I cry.

My walls clamp down instantly and my whole body shakes with the power behind my impending orgasm.  My muscles are seizing, coiling tight, and preparing for the force that will flood my system soon.  I’m right there, standing on the ledge and ready to jump…and then he pulls his fingers from my body.

“What the hell!” I screech.

“Shut up!” he thunders.

“Don’t tell me to shut up!” I shout back, working to free my arms from his unbreakable hold.  “Let me go, asshole.”  I want to cry at the loss of what promised to be such an all-consuming release.

When he shifts, I feel the blunt head of his cock at my entrance.

“Condom!” I yell through the hunger I feel towards this man.

“Shut up,” he pants.

“Don’t tell me—”

My words are cut off when he pushes himself roughly into my body.  I yelp out when I feel him bottom out, and as he rolls his hips, I feel every single one of his delicious piercings.

Everything else around us falls to the wayside.  He takes my body forcefully and I take everything he’s giving me just as hard, meeting him thrust for thrust.  My hands itch to break free, to try to take the control he so clearly desires in this moment.

“Give me the words, Em.”  His grunted command breaks through the silence that only our harsh breaths were filling just moments before.

“Fuck you!” I shout when he slams into my body.

“You are,” he laughs.

If I weren’t so close to flying into a million pieces, I might find it insulting that he’s laughing at me.  At the moment, though, the only thing I can think about is every inch of his cock buried deep within my body.

“Now, Emersyn.”

I smile to myself, knowing that he can’t see my face, and refuse to give him the words he wants.  I screech when his palm connects with my ass again, my wetness coating his cock and my orgasm just within reach.

And then he stops.  His hips still and he just stands there with his cock twitching inside my body.

“What the hell are you doing?!  Fuck me, Maddox!”

“Not until you give me the words I want, Em.”

He lets my wrists go and curls his fingers around my waist, lifting me up from the counter so that my feet can no longer touch the floor.  Then he rolls his hips and I roll my eyes.

“Tell me,” he commands.

“I love you!   I fucking love you.  Are you happy now?”  I lift up on the counter and turn my head to glare at him.

My mind instantly stills when I see the completely open expression of happiness on his face.  His cheeks are still flushed, his eyes are boring into mine, and his mouth is tipped up in a smile so shocking that my breath catches.

“Yeah, angel, I am.”

He pulls out slowly, his eyes never leaving mine, before pushing back in.  He holds my gaze—his smile more of a smirk now—and gradually builds me back up.  It doesn’t take long before his thrusts are coming quicker and his veins are throbbing in his neck.  I throw my head back and scream loud and long when he hits that perfect spot deep inside me that has me coming hard against his dick.  He gives me a few good thrusts before he comes on a roar.

His fingers move from my hips and caress my back on a lazy trail up my spine.  When he hits my shoulders, his hand curls in and pulls me up until my back is flush with his chest.  The light spattering of hair there sends a violent shiver through my body.  I feel his groan rumble against my back at my slight movement.   His free hand comes up, cups my jaw, and turns my head so that our lips are just a breath away.

Holding my eyes hostage, he gives me a short kiss before pulling back.  “I’m sorry,” he whispers.  When he pulls out of my body, his fingers once again fall down my spine as he walks out of the kitchen.

Leaving me to wonder what in the hell just happened.

Chapter 14—Maddox

It’s been two days since we came together in anger.

I immediately gave her some weak-ass apology and kept my distance while I tried to figure out why I’d demanded her love.  I don’t even know what had come over me.  I know how she feels.  She’s made no secret of it for the longest time.  The words were on the tip of my tongue to return her love…but my fear kept me from speaking.  So I took the space I needed to get my head together.  That night—with some unspoken truce—I decided to give in and see what happens.

To let her in and the blessed promise that her love provides.

She asked me to teach her how to shoot, to help her learn how to handle firearms the night after our kitchen sex.  She expressed the helplessness she felt when she didn’t have the means to protect herself and that, if she were ever in that position again, she wanted to be prepared.

“I’ll teach you, Em, but mark my words—you’ll never be in a position like that again.”

“You can’t promise me that.  You aren’t going to be with me every second of my life,” she deadpanned.

I heard what she wasn’t saying.  She was hesitant to believe that I’m trying.  I don’t blame her.  Hell, I wouldn’t trust me easily either.

“I damn sure can.”

“All right, big boy.  Let’s not argue the semantics here.  Will you teach me?”

“Yeah, babe.  I’ll teach you.”

That afternoon was one of the best in my life.  She was nervous at first, but she’s a natural, so it didn’t take long to get her on a roll.  We joked with each other and enjoyed being in the moment.  The heaviness that usually swallows us whole was absent, and even with knowing that we have no control over the unknown, there wasn’t a thing that could ruin the day.

The following week, we spend our days in the backfield shooting the targets Devon has lined up.  His collection of firearms is vast and Emmy never tires.

And our nights are spent getting lost in each other.

I went back to my apartment a week ago and got Cat for Emmy.  My thoughts were that she would help Emmy want to go home.  We’ve been here for a little over a month now, and even though I would probably be content spending the rest of my life in this weird bubble we’ve created, I know it’s not fair to her.  She deserves a life, and now that she’s starting to become stronger as a person, I know it’s time to talk about going home.
