Page 79 of Shattered Oaths

“Are you okay? You sound out of breath.” I scoff at that one, biting down on my bottom lip to keep from telling him to go fuck himself.

Instead, I up my pace, the sound of my balls slapping against her ass filling the air as I drive into her. My toes curl in my boots as she clenches around me, her inner muscles squeezing the fucking life out of my dick and I know that she’s close.

“I’m f-fine… oh fuck, Noah,” she screams as her orgasm builds to the peak and I yank the phone out of her hand, hitting the red button before tossing it to the side.

“Good fucking girl. Now cum all over my fucking cock, Bella,” I say, wrapping an arm around her back and leaning forward to take her nipple between my teeth as I hammer my hips into her.

That familiar tingling starts at the base of my spine before spreading into my balls and up to the head of my dick and the second she clamps down around me, her head thrown back as she screams my name, I spill inside her with a shout. “Fuck!”

CHAPTER 34

BELLA

The flames from the campfire are warm against my face, adding to the heat already coursing through me from the two bottles of beer I’ve drunk tonight.

The sun setting behind the mountains casts a purple hue across the sky above us and the sounds of birds chirping has faded more with every minute as night falls.

Hunter and Noah are perched in their fold out chairs along the edge of the creek, a cool box sitting between them. Savannah leans back in the chair beside me, a contented sigh leaving her. “I love being a mum, but man… it’s so nice to have a night to ourselves.”

I chuckle, twisting my head to look at her. “How are the kids?”

I haven’t seen a lot of my nieces and nephews recently and it feels shitty. Kids grow so fast and I can’t help but feel like I’ve been missing out on some of the most important moments of their lives while beingwrapped up in my own issues.

“Reign is seven going on seventeen.” She shakes her head with a laugh, face glowing with a love reserved for mothers. “That girl is going to be a handful when she’s older. God help the man she ends up with. And Crue is just the sweetest boy.”

“I miss them,” I admit, my gut twisting with guilt.

Savannah turns her head, her green eyes softening on me. “They miss you, too. You should come over for dinner one night, I’m sure they’d love to have auntie Bells around more.”

“Yeah. Just give me a day and I’m there.”

She looks at me, an unfamiliar expression on her face as she shifts in her seat. “I need to ask you something, and you can tell me if I’m crossing a line, I won’t mind. But it’s something that’s been bothering me.”

I swallow, a knot of dread forming at her words. “What is it?”

Savannah takes a deep breath, her face completely serious. “Did Justin ever hurt you? Like, physically?”

The knot of dread sinks further. I look away from her for a minute, needing a reprieve from the thick emotion in her eyes.

“He didn’t hit me, no. But there were a few moments where I thought he had it in him.” I pause, looking down at my nails as I quietly admit something I’ve only told one other person. “He uh, tried to force himself on me on the day I left.”

Her green eyes shine with unshed tears as she reaches over and grips my hand. “Bells, I’m so sorry that happened to you.”

I shake my head, giving her a tight-lipped smile. “I thought it would affect me way worse than it did. Honestly,I just felt relieved to get away from him before he had the chance, but I ran into him this morning and when he touched me, I felt fear for the first time since that day.”

“You ran into him today?” She asks, the worry evident in her voice. “What did he do?”

I blow out a breath. “He begged me to talk to him and when I tried to leave, he grabbed my arm and wouldn’t let go.” My eyes trail off toward the man sitting down by the creek. “Until Noah showed up.”

Green eyes widen in my direction. “How did Justin react to that?”

I shake my head, a small smile playing on my lips as I recall the expression on his face when realisation settled in. “About as well as you could imagine.”

Savannah smile mimics mine as she nods her head in the direction of the two men down by the water, thankfully moving away from the subject of Justin when she asks, “What’s going on there?”

I feel myself blush and I avert my eyes, picking at the label on my bottle. “I think we’re together?”

Savannah laughs. “Are you asking me or telling me?”
