Page 98 of You Saw the Best In Me

I know she was worried about me last night, and I want to find a way to make up for that — and everything else I’ve put her through lately.

I’ve been closed off and moody, but that’s over with. Grams is gone, and Harper is where she belongs.

The three of us are starting a new journey together, and I want to show Karina that I’m still all in. Nothing’s changed.

“Honey, I’m home!” I hear her shout, and I can barely contain my excitement.

“Hi, baby girl. How was your day?” I ask, taking the groceries and kissing her on the cheek.

“It was fine. I got a call from the court today,” she says, and my eyes widen.

I’m frozen in place, waiting to hear about her ex’s case. If he’s out and free, I might lose my fucking mind.

“He’s pleaded not guilty, and his bail was set pretty high,” she finishes, and I exhale.

Thank god.

There’s still a chance he could be let out, but I doubt that'll happen with how much the bail is.

“That’s amazing news, kitten,” I pull her close, holding her face in my hands.

She stands on her tiptoes and presses her lips to mine, and I kiss her back with force. I’ve missed being with her, and this dash of intimacy is just what I need.

I scoop her up, her legs wrapping around my waist, and push her into the wall. She moans into my mouth, and I lightly bite her bottom lip.

Her hands tangle in my hair, and mine are firmly placed on her ass, holding her in place. I break our kiss, staring into those hazel eyes, and I can’t hold back anymore.

I’ve been shaking inside, terrified of saying how I feel, but I’m done being afraid.

“I love you, Karina,” I pause, not expecting her to say it back, but she bites her lip.

“Fuck. I love you so much, Mav,” she breathes, and my heart skips a beat.

I carry her to our bed, kissing her collarbone as I gently lay her down.

Her eyes glimmer, and I take a moment to close and lock the door.

“Get over here, Angel,” she whispers, slowly lifting her shirt off, and I don’t waste a second.

I kiss her breasts, still trapped in the confines of her bra, and lightly tease the skin with little bites. She groans, tugging on my hair and kissing my neck.

We’re tangled in each other, ripping clothes off, stealing kisses, and Karina and I make love for the first time.

She pushes me down, taking control and leaving kisses across my chest. Her hand is wrapped around my cock, slowly working it before climbing on top of me and sinking down until I fit all the way inside her.

I let a moan escape my lips, she feels so fucking good, and I take her perfect tits in my hands, pinching her nipples while she bounces up and down on me, her hands placed on my chest.

Her head tips back, and I can feel her clench around me, signaling that she’s close. I thrust my hips, matching her pace, and when she comes, I watch as she loses all control.

“Fuck, Mav,” she whispers, kissing my neck and breathing heavily.

“You amaze me, kitten,” I bite her shoulder, making her scream.

I cover her mouth with my hand, telling her to be quiet.

“I’m going to make you come again, and this time, you can’t make a sound,” she nods, and I immediately pick up my pace.

I can feel her heart pounding, and her urge to moan is making her crazy, but when she bites my hand, I know she’s finished.
