I worked his erection up and down with my mouth and hand, loving the sounds of pleasure that were escaping from him. I moved my fingers in tandem with the suction that my lips created and when I got to his tip, I licked the top and then rolled my hand over it before sucking him inside my mouth again. I could do this forever, but I knew that he was getting close when I felt a surge of pre-come shoot up the vein of his shaft.
His hands tightened around my neck. “You need to stop or I’m going to explode in your mouth.”
As much as I would love to taste him, I needed to feel him inside of me. I stood up and he quickly and stealthily unhooked my bra, which was the only garment I had on. Before it even hit the ground I climbed on top of him, straddling my legs on either side, ignoring the groan of plastic as I did.
My hands rested on his shoulders and his knuckles brushed my inner thighs as his hand moved to the apex of my legs. His fingers caressed my intimate folds. They slid easily revealing that I was wet and very ready for him. My legs were trembling as I positioned my hips so that my entrance was hovering over his engorged crown.
He took himself in one hand and with the other grasped my hip to guide me. We both watched as I lowered down, slowly, taking him inside my body. My inner canal clamped around him as my body accepted him. My walls stretched, walking the erotic line of pain and pleasure as I slowly sank until he filled me completely.
Now both his hands were on my hips as I sat still, luxuriating in the sensation of him being buried to the hilt inside me. Soon, the tips of his fingers dug into my skin and guided me up. As I rose, we both watched his impressive girth slide out, now glistening with my arousal. The sight caused a shiver of pleasure to run up my spine.
I sucked in a breath and closed my eyes as the sensation rolled through me. When I did, I felt Maddox’s mouth clamp down around my left breast while one of his hands moved to my right. He bit down on my nipple while pinching the other with just enough force the sting shot straight to my core. My hips jerked wildly, and he took over completely.
The hand that wasn’t massaging my breast clamped onto my hip and guided me up and down as his mouth and fingers continued their sensual attentions.
“This is…so good.” I didn’t even know how to express what being with Maddox was like. It was so much more than anyone else I’d been with.
There was sex, there was making love, and then there was what happened when we were together. For years, I’d thought that I’d built the experience up in my head because it was my first time and the next time I had sex, which was in college, it had been so terrible.
The reunion had been even better than our first time, and this was even better than that had been. Maybe it was because I’d finally been able to be honest so there were no secrets between us. Every other time we’d been together, I’d been keeping something from him. Our first time, I’d known I was leaving. At the reunion, I was hiding the past. Now, he knew everything.
Instead of overthinking it, I decided to just feel. All I wanted was to lose myself in Maddox and that is exactly what I did.
His tongue circled my nipple before his teeth bit it with just enough pressure that a shock of bliss erupted in my core. My inner walls tightened around him as I lowered down on him with enough force that a slapping noise rang out.
The erotic sound sent tingles racing down my arms and legs, so I lifted up and did it again. The familiar ache of release began to pulse low in my belly. I could feel myself getting closer and closer to going up and over the edge once more.
I opened my eyes and looked down, watching as Maddox sucked on my breast. My hands roamed over his muscled shoulders. His skin was hot beneath my touch, and I reveled in the privilege of touching him, of loving him, of being loved by him.
Despite my efforts to clear my brain of any intruding thoughts and just focus on the here and now, some snuck past my defenses. I’d been so sure that once he knew the truth, we would never be the same. But I’d been wrong.
I hadn’t trusted what we shared. I hadn’t trusted him. I hadn’t trusted our love. I promised myself then and there I would never do that again.
As my climax overtook me, thousands of tiny explosions of pleasure erupted from my core and spread throughout my limbs. My stomach contracted and I wrapped my arms around him, nuzzling my face into the crook of his neck. He continued driving up into me until his entire body tensed and a groan vibrated from deep inside of his chest.
I continued to hold onto him, hugging him tightly as both of our bodies began to relax. His large hand ran up and down my back as we caught our breath.
“I love you,” I breathed against his neck so quietly I wasn’t even sure he heard me. I don’t know what possessed me to make that declaration. Usually, I had a difficult time expressing myself. But when I opened my mouth, it just came out.
When I felt his arms wrap around me and pull me tighter, I knew that he had. “I love you, too. I never stopped loving you and I never will.”
I didn’t know what the future held for us, but this was enough. For now, this was enough.

MADDOX
It had been lessthan twelve hours since I’d found out that I had a twenty-year-old daughter but I felt a lifetime had passed. Because that’s what I’d missed with her and now I had to find her. I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep again until I did. After leaving Peyton’s, I’d gone to bed hoping I would wake up with a clear head. Sleep was never easy for me because I couldn’t shut off my brain and last night it had been on overload.
I’d given up on any hope of slumber at three a.m. and come into the office. I had to find my little girl and I was going to try the legal route first. First thing this morning, I hired the company’s private investigating firm to find her, but I wasn’t going sit around and wait for what they found.
I’d requested records from every hospital within a three-hundred-mile radius of where Peyton had lived and also sent requests to registrar’s offices but that was taking too long. It was so frustrating knowing that I could easily hack into any of those hospitals and government systems, and I was really fucking tempted to.
Ever since I had Hannah, I’d held myself to a higher standard. I’d never used my powers for evil, but I had used my powers for convenience. Since I believed that kids learned by what they saw not by what they heard, I’d done my best to stop doing anything that wasn’t above board.
Hacking into foreign hospitals and government offices to get records was not exactly legal but it was a much faster means to an end. I felt like I had an angel on one shoulder and a little devil on the other. Right now the angel was winning, but I feared the horned one was going to prevail.
Angel. That’s what I’d always called Peyton. And she was. She was my angel.
