Let It Burn (48 page)

“What? We were talking.” I said innocently.

“Yeah you were talking with your dick, baby. Come on. Take me somewhere else.” I smiled at her, loving the beautiful pink at her face as it flushed.

“I’ll take you wherever you want me to, baby. Come here, give me some Sugar.” As always, pleasure rocketing through me that she never hesitated, she obeyed.

Dogs yelped and loud voices, sounding young and far off but too close to let me do what I wanted, echoed through the shallow woods. Kissing her, I lifted her against me, grabbing great handfuls of her ass. My mouth ached from that one two punch Cash had caught me with earlier. My ribs got the worst of it; he kicked me hard twice, like he was aiming for the extra point in a big game. I knew a beating was coming the minute I heard her brother step into that barn.

Lucky for me he had been just in time to miss me fucking my girl’s little pussy till she came for me again. I no sooner licked her come off my fingers, rock hard the entire time, that I heard boots crunch on the gravel. Following Charli now, staying close behind her to hide my throbbing erection, and to let it press into her ass, I asked where we were off to next. Charli didn’t answer and I didn’t really care.

As long as it was with her.

We drove for a while, both of us quiet. I held her hand in mine, her little fingers woven tightly within mine. I needed the connection right now. Charli gave it to me; let me take what I needed from her. I wanted to be inside her, to give her what we both needed but I could wait.

Whatever it took to get us back to the place we were before shit fell apart. It blew my mind that twenty-four hours ago I was fucking her in her truck, ready to tell her how much I loved her.

Now I was fighting to keep her all because I had been so insecure of the shitty person I had let myself become once. Charli directed me through some hills as the sun started to drop lower in the sky. The sky was darkening with rolling clouds and the air was crisp. It was peaceful here, quiet with lots of green and fresh air. I knew she hated it after her time in Chicago.

Charli loved the excitement of our little neighborhood where the cottage was nestled. She loved getting her groceries at the bodega or ordering things she has never tried before. She loved hitting the book stores with Gigi and going shopping with Regan. I knew this town held nothing but her family for her anymore.

It soothed some of my fears, because I knew I had less of a battle to get her to come home. If it took me staying here until I won her back, so be it. It would be easier to make her remember how good things were with her back in the cottage, though. I would chase her no matter where she ran to, though.

“You’re so beautiful,” I murmured softly as she stared out at the sprawling fields that surrounded us, “you take my breath away, Sugar.” It was true; my chest was tight as I stared at her, the sun making her creamy skin glow, her eyes shine.

“Pretty words. You like to use them against me.” I frowned, hearing the bite in her words, so different than the sweet teasing just before at the river.

“Talk to me Sugar. Where you at right now?” I tugged at her hand, bringing it to my lap, stopping at the top of a hill, no traffic in sight.

“Drive for now, Cage. Please.” When she glanced my way, my heart sank; her shutters were up once again. Damn.

I obeyed though, driving through the winding hills, watching her drift further away every mile marker I passed. Though her fingers stayed laced tightly within mine, I felt her closing down. Panic flooded me. Then anger.

I loved her god dammit! I never loved anyone else like this; no one made me feel what she did. I knew it was the same for her. Charli loved me and that’s why this was so hard for her. There was more at stake, more to lose.

I pulled into an empty field circled by trees with a crooked barn nestled away from the road and slammed the car into park. I dropped her hand and jumped out of the blazer, leaving her to stew in her doubts. I would wait, I would fight, but she had to fight too.

I stormed into the barn, cursing my stupidity, cursing her need to run when things got serious. Thunder rolled through the clouds chasing through the sky overhead. I could taste the rain on the air. Just when I started to regret leaving her in the blazer with a storm on its way, she stepped into the barn.

Charli watched me as I paced, working to control my anger because it wasn’t her fault. Not really. Charli never had anyone fight for her. But neither had I. I knew I was fucking it up and losing her was a real risk. Tears blurred my vision but I fought them back, tired of seeming weak for a woman who couldn’t fight for me. For us.

“I...I don’t know what you want me to do.” Charli spoke softly, her voice brittle and caged.

“I want you to let me fight. I want you to fight right beside me. I fucked up Charli,” I roared finally, turning to face her, kicking dirt up beneath my feet, “I thought I wasn’t good enough for you and then someone showed up confirming that for me. I never wanted or looked at and certainly never touched anyone else but you. I would never. All it took for me to fuck up was a reminder of what a piece of shit I was before you. It’s not like it was that long ago. How could I risk you knowing that? Risk Ariel cornering you at that fucking pub or at my place when I wasn’t there to protect you? So I fucking lied. To protect you. To protect myself, the way you felt about me, looked at me. I didn’t want to lose that,” I put my hand up when she started to step into the barn.

‘I fucking loved you, Charli. I was scared because I know you have these stars in your eyes about life and I didn’t want to ruin that. I wanted you to think I was a great guy. I’m not. I did that shit. I fucked women whose names I didn’t even care to know. I let them suck my cock in the back of bars, in parking lots. I fucked them just to feel like a fucking man. I let that girl suck my cock to piss off Stiles; with him right there while we watched Finn balls deep in another man’s girl,” The words sounded disgusted in the air between us.

“Because I was a piece of shit. That’s what I felt like, so that’s what I did. When I met you, I felt dirty and worthless. I was fucking
them
, but they made me feel worthless. Then I looked up at you,” My chest was flaming in pain because I felt her slipping away, “one day and you looked fresh and bright and like fucking sunshine. You made me feel like a man without even touching you. You made me think I could be good at this. But I’m not. I want to fight for you. I fucking love you. I fucked up and now....” Lighting whipped through the sky behind the truck, just feet from Charli and she jumped.

The skies opened up and she was soaked in seconds. The white t-shirt she wore, no bra the way I liked her, plastered to her and I forgot my argument. Charli’s long honey brown hair dripped down her back as she stood in the rain. She tipped her head back and let it rain down on her face.
Fuck
she was beautiful.

The sun was still there, but the skies were dark and she found the one sliver of sun to stand in. Like a fucking angel. Her clothes were ruined and she looked fucking delicious. When she looked back at me, she hesitated as if considering. Then, she tore her clothes off, throwing them aside.
Jesus fuck
.

Charli stood naked in the rain, head back again, tits full and nipples rock hard. Like my cock which ached to sink inside her. Her pussy was pink and bare and I wanted to kneel in front of her and bury my face in it. I didn’t. I didn’t move. I just watched her.

My heart hammered in my chest and I briefly wondered about someone seeing her. We were in the middle of nowhere and I hadn’t seen a car for over an hour. I moved out into the rain, cautious, not sure just what I was allowed right now. I had to touch her, had to feel her wet skin beneath my fingertips.

I was drenched in a matter of a few steps and Charli laughed. Her eyes were closed, but she felt me press closer. My fingertips moved over her curvy hips, up her rib cage. Slowly. Nervous she might shrink away. That would kill me.

Instead she moaned softly, encouraging me. Letting my hands flatten to her skin, I slid them up, cupping her fullness and letting my thumbs flick at her hard nipples. Her teeth came out at her bottom lip and she nodded. So I did it again. Then again. Charli was slick from the rain and my hands felt rough against her skin. Lifting the perfect weight of her, I bent my head. Suckled at her left nipple.

“Cage...” I knew that tone; she wanted more, it was always this way when I touched her.

“I need to fuck you baby. I need to feel you come again. I need to show you how bad I need you. First....” My mouth moved to the other breast, pulling at her nipple hard, biting, and rolling it.

“Oh...yes. I love your mouth, Cage.” For long moments I suckled at her skin, leaving marks at her flesh, nipping and caressing her.

Thunder rolled then another strike of lightening. I picked her up and backed the few steps into the barn. It was hot as fuck touching her in the rain, but I wanted us both to survive this. Inside the rain still poured down in spots so I found the perfect place.

Forgotten bales of hay were stacked in a corner and a dressing blanket and a saddle rested on a hook on the wall. Snatching the blanket, I threw it over the hay. Rain drops circled us as I dropped us to our knees on the makeshift bed.

Charli was needy; I could feel it in the bow of her body, the shimmy of her hips. Her hands were at my shirt, shoving it up and off. Then she made quick work of my jeans, but I shoved her hands away from my boxers. Needed a little buffer or I’d lose my shit too fast.

“Touch me again. Barns will be our new thing,” Charli was flushed and giggled and I fucking loved it, “I need you to remind me how good it is.” I growled and dropped over her, pressing my cock, hard and aching into her soaked pussy.

“It’s so fucking good between us, baby. Not like anything else. I make you feel like no one else ever can. You fill up all the parts of me and make me feel worth something. Spread your legs for me, Sugar. Let me see that pussy.” Her face flushed but I knew she loved my dirty talk.

Charli obeyed, like she always did which made me harder. Her legs fell open on the blanket, her back arching as rain hit her shoulders, her thighs, her belly. Her pretty pink pussy was swollen and wet, from the rain and from her need. I watched her as I worked my hands teasingly slowly up her thick thighs. Laughing softly when she squirmed and bucked her hips. Begging. I loved it.

Charli made me feel wanted and needed and like a fucking king. I needed her. My hands framed her little cleft, my thumbs spreading her open to me. Charli cried out, rain soaking her skin as she bucked her hips. Letting my fingers drag over her wet heat, I watched her writhe beneath my touch.

“Fuck I love how hot you get for me.
That
makes me feel like a fucking man, Sugar. You, wanting me to make you come. You needing me inside you. Making you cry out my name. Makes me feel like a fucking
king
. Tell me what you want, Sugar.”

“Your dirty mouth. Taste me, baby. I need it.”
Oh fuck, yes
; I dropped over her and flattened my tongue, obeying her demands.

“Oh shit,” Her hips bowed and I had to hook my arms around her thighs, “Fuck, Cage. I love your magic mouth. Yes, baby...yes.” I licked her from bottom to top and back again and again. Sucked at her hard clit, biting at it till she screamed out, thunder drowning out her sounds.

“Scream for me, Sugar. Tell me how good it feels. Fuck you taste so good, Sugar. So sweet. I love your sweet pussy baby.” I proved it by dragging my tongue over her sweetness until her thighs trembled. Again and again, circling her clit with my tongue before sucking her into my mouth.

“Oh god! Cage...baby...please...make me come.”

I watched her as she cupped her tits, something I had begged her to do for me lately. It was so fucking hot. Her hands rubbed at her pretty rosy nipples as she moaned.

Dropping one of her thighs over my shoulder, I drove two fingers deep inside her, making her scream. Then I pumped fast and hard, fucking her tight heat fast and hard, curling my fingers just right.

When I hit that spot that had her rocking her hips, I focused my touch there, sucking hard at her clit. I felt her walls tighten, her thighs shaking as her orgasm took hold of her. Crying my name out, making my cock twitch, she came hard and long. Before she finished, I had my boxers off, hooked both hands around her knees and thrust deep inside her.

“Oh fuck,” I stilled as her hips rolled to accept my size, “fuck baby. Look at me when I fuck you. Eyes, baby. Fuck you’re so fucking tight, I love this pussy. Tell me what I want to hear. Fuck everything else. Tell me, Sugar.” Her head nodded as she wet her lips, her chest pumping for air.

“I’m yours, baby. All of me is yours, no matter what. Please, I need to feel you again. I missed you so fucking much. Fuck me, Cage.” I watched her as I slid all the way out, letting my cock slip up to hit her clit.

Then I rammed back in, never looking away from her. Her hands twisted in the blanket above her head, the rain still pouring down on us both. I pounded into her fast and hard, her body trembling beneath me. When her hands came back to play with her tits, and a dirty smile curved that sexy fucking mouth, I almost lost it.

When she dropped a hand between her legs, flicking furiously at her clit, I knew I couldn’t hold on. She was so fucking sexy and she was trying to please me. Charli knew I loved when she got a little dirty sometimes. Turned me on. Right now, I needed it. So as she touched herself so confidently, her pussy clenching around my cock, I drove into her roughly.
