Edge of Love (10 page)

“
I’m glad you’re settling
for me.”

I looked at him. “I’m definitely not
settling.”

“
Let’s be real, Scarlet. I
used to be a disgusting pervert. I told women I loved them just to
take their virginity, and then I left them without calling them
back. When I got into college, I did the same thing but on a
grander scale. I lived that life until I met Penelope. I’m not a
good person, babe.”

“
I admit that you were a
horrible person in that respect, but you’re an amazing guy in every
other way. Besides, you’re completely different now. You would
never do something like that to me.”

“
It doesn’t change
anything. I used to be a man that every father hated.”

“
Well, I can say with
complete confidence that my father would love you.”

He smiled at me. “I don’t want to have
any girls. Only boys.”

I laughed. “I’ll do my best. And
what’s your problem with girls? They’re adorable.”

“
I just don’t want them to
end up with a guy like me.”

“
Well, you’ll be able to
see them from a mile away.”

He nodded. “I guess that’s
true.”

“
And not all women care
about that. Some women have a casual sex lifestyle. It’s not a big
deal.”

“
Our daughters
won’t.”

I sighed. This conversation was going
nowhere. “You should go back downstairs.”

“
Come with me.”

“
I have no interest in
being around your brother and mother right now. You father is the
only person I like.”

He smiled. “My father is pretty
awesome.”

“
He’s
adorable.”

He stared at me. “Do I have some
competition?”

I smiled. “He’s pretty
cute.”

He laughed. “My father would blush
crimson red if he thought you had the hotts for him.”

“
I don’t know why he
picked your mother of all people.”

He sighed. “I admit that my mom has
been nothing short of a bitch this weekend, but please don’t say
mean things about her. It makes me uncomfortable.”

My heart ached. “You’re right. I’m
sorry.”

“
You know I’ll defend you
in every fight. You’re the most important thing in the world to me.
I could live without my family, my friends, money, food, and
shelter, but I couldn’t live without you. I would do anything just
to keep you in my life. I’m wrapped around your finger, Scarlet.
You could treat me like shit and I would still be with you. I love
you so fucking much it hurts. My mother’s opinion about our
engagement has no effect on me. Even if she hated you, it would
change nothing. She can complain about my job, where I live, my
breakup with Penelope, but it doesn’t matter. It pisses me off, but
it doesn’t matter, okay?”

My eyes softened at his words. He
loved me so much. “Okay.”

“
In my heart, I know she’s
trying to do what’s best for me.”
I sighed. “I’m sure she is.”

He rose from the bed. “Now let’s
go.”

I groaned.

“
It’s our last night here.
Let’s make the best of it.”

“
What do you think I’m
doing?”

He smiled. “I’ll make it up to you
tonight.”

“
How about right
now?”

He laughed. “First, you refused to
have sex, but now you want to do it all the time.”

“
It’s like we’re at
home.”

“
It’s exactly like we’re
at home.” He came back to the bed and leaned over me. “How do you
want it?”

“
I want you to go down on
me.”

His eyes became more intense as he
looked at me. “You’re a whore.”

“
I know.”

“
As long as you’re honest
about it.”

“
But you know why,
right?”

He pressed his lips against mine then
kissed me gently. “Because you’re only like this with
me?”

I ran my hands up his chest.
“Yes.”

He lifted up my dress then pulled down
my underwear. He pulled me to the foot of the bed then lowered
himself to his knees. His lips kissed me gently and I moaned.
Suddenly, he pulled away. “I’m sorry about everything,
Scar.”

I dug my fingers into his hair then
pulled his face to the apex of my thighs. “Prove it.”

He laughed. “I will.”

His lips were on me again. I leaned
back and closed my eyes, enjoying the feel of his tongue pleasing
me. He knew exactly what he was doing and I loved it. Sometimes I
was jealous that he was with so many other women, but when he made
me come hard, I forgot about his past. Now that we’re getting
married, I knew it didn’t matter anymore. He would only make love
to me for the rest of our lives. I clenched his hair harder as he
made me moan. “Sean.”

He pressed his tongue inside
me.

I moaned again. “Sean.”

His thumb rubbed my clitoris while he
gently kissed me, and I felt the flood of emotion surge through my
body, making me shake.

“
You’re almost there,
babe.”

“
Sean.”

“
Your legs are shaking for
me.”

“
Sean.”

“
Come on.”

I gripped his hair and tried to keep
my whimpers down to a minimum. The explosion ran through my body
and made me shake with pleasure. I couldn’t hold back my moan and
it came out louder than I wanted. It just felt so good that I
couldn’t hold it back. “Sean.” When my moment passed, I felt the
sweat on my breasts and the rise and fall of my chest. My body felt
scorching hot and I suddenly felt tired and relaxed. The orgasm
seemed to dull the stress I was feeling.

Sean rose from the foot of the bed
then leaned over me. “Did you enjoy that?”

“
You couldn’t
tell?”

He smiled. “It always works on
me.”

“
I know it does. I’m going
to be upset more often.”

“
That works for
me.”

I grabbed his shoulders then pulled
him on top of me. “I love you.”

“
And I love you, Scar.
More than anything in the world.”

I rubbed my nose against his. “Even
blow jobs?”

He laughed. “Well…I don’t know.
They’re pretty amazing. At least yours are.” I pinched him. “But I
think you’re the clear winner.”

“
Damn right I
am.”

“
Well, you’re a hot piece
of ass.”

“
You got that
right.”

“
And what about
me?”

I shrugged. “You’re okay to look
at.”

He shook his head. “One of these days
you’re going to admit how fine you think I am.”

“
I don’t think I need to
tell you. It’s pretty clear.”

He leaned down and kissed me between
my thighs again. I moaned quietly. “You’re right. It is pretty
clear. But it doesn’t hurt to say it once in a while.”

I wrapped my legs around his waist and
pulled him towards me. “You’re right. You’re the sexiest, most
gorgeous man that I’ve ever seen. You make me so horny that I want
to have sex all day long. I need you to pound into me with your
massive dick and make me scream your name.” Sean swallowed the lump
in his throat as he listened to me. I saw the formation of a bulge
in his pants. “And when you’re inside of me, I have to bite my lip
so I don’t beg you to fuck me harder. And the sight of your
gorgeous body makes me shake. Just the feel of your fingers inside
my body makes me come immediately.” Sean stared at me while he
unbuttoned his jeans. “I want you all day, every day, because
you’re irresistible and delicious. I’ve never loved sucking cock
more in my life.”

He moaned while he pulled his
underwear down. “Now I have to fuck you, Scar.” He leaned over me
and separated my legs. “Keep going.”

“
And I love watching the
sweat drip from your chest when you fuck me. It rolls off your skin
and onto my body and makes me yearn for you—”

Sean inserted himself within me and
started to pound into me hard and fast. It felt so good, I lost my
train of thought. His breathing was deep and fast. “Keep going,
babe.”

“
When I feel you inside of
me, I already feel my body mold to you. You make me come harder
than any other man has before, and with you I always feel
satisfied. You’re the greatest lover I’ve ever had.”

He thrust into me harder. “Yeah I
am.”

I moved my hands to his ass and pulled
him deeper into me. “I love how big you are.”

“
Fuck yes.”

“
And I love your ass. I
want to bite it.”

Sean closed his eyes and started to
shake.

“
I love watching you come,
babe.”

His arms started to shake as he thrust
into me harder.

“
And I love feeling you
come inside me.”

He moaned. “Scarlet.” He pressed his
head against mind while he moaned loudly. “Fuck,
Scarlet.”

“
Come for me.”

He grabbed my face and pressed his
close to mine. Our lips were almost touching. “I’m coming. I’m
coming. Fuck yes, I’m coming.”

I rocked my hips below him and
finished all the work, letting him enjoy his orgasm.

“
Yes, Scarlet.” He
collapsed on top of me.

I licked the sweat from his shoulders
and his neck then ran my fingers through his hair. He said nothing
for several moments while he caught is breath. I kissed his
forehead and waited for his breathing to return to
normal.

He rolled off of me then looked at me.
“That’s what I thought.”

I smiled. “I meant every
word.”

“
That was the best orgasm
I’ve ever had.”

“
Really?” I said happily.
“You’re welcome.”

“
I want you to do that
again.”

“
I’ll do it as often as
you like.”

He leaned over and kissed me on the
forehead. “God, I love you.”

“
I love you
too.”

“
I’m so goddamn
lucky.”

“
Me too.”

“
I can’t believe I get to
make love to you for the rest of my life.”

“
And you get to fuck me
too.”

He smiled. “Yeah. I look forward to
it.”

“
So do I.”

He sighed. “Now we definitely need to
go downstairs.”

I groaned. “Do we have to?”

He laughed. “We can’t stay in here all
night.”

I climbed on top of him and straddled
his hips. “Yes, we can. I’ll do that thing you like.”

He growled. “Don’t tempt me.” He sat
up and placed me on the ground. “Come on.”

I frowned. “Fine.”

He caught my expression. “We’ll be
home tomorrow. I’ll fuck your brains out then.”

I shook my head. “It’s not just
that.”

“
What?”

I want to snuggle with you, read the
paper in the morning with you, curl up on the couch with you. I
miss you.”

He rolled his eyes. “It’s been two
days, Scarlet.”

“
I know. I realize how
crazy I sound. But I miss you. I can’t believe I lived without you
for so long. Now that I have you, I never want to take it for
granted.”

His eyes softened. “I can’t believe
you want to be with me all the time. I just don’t feel good enough
for you. You’re so amazing, beautiful, prefect in every way. I’m so
glad you put up with my bullshit for so long.

“
Sean, forget about it.
I’ve moved on and so have you.”

“
I was still an
ass.”

“
And you changed. I trust
you more than anyone in the world, and I’m so happy.”

“
I’ll never break your
trust again, Scarlet. You never have to worry about
that.”

“
I know.”

“
I love you,
babe.”

“
I love you,
too.”

“
And we’ll limit the
family trips.”
“Well, if we had our own hotel room it would be fine.”

He smiled. “Okay. Next time, I’ll put
my foot down.”

“
Be firm.”

His eyes twinkled. “Like I am with
you?”

I licked my lips.

He shook his head then headed toward
the door, trying to escape from me. “Fuck you, Scarlet.”

“
Please do.”

He opened the door then walked into
the hallway. “I need to get out of here before I fuck you
again.”

I laughed as I followed him out the
door.

When Sean walked into the living room,
he sat in the armchair by the fire. Since there was no room I moved
to the other couch, but Sean grabbed me by the wrist and pulled me
into his lap. He adjusted me then kissed me on the cheek. I was
aware of his mother and father staring at us, but Sean didn’t seem
to care. He wrapped his arm around my waist and held me close to
him.
