Page 68 of Finding Kenna
“Then I want you to stay the night,” he said, excitement rising within him. “As much as I fucking love this beanbag, I’m looking forward to laying you out on my bed and not being quite so cramped when I make love to you.”
“Oh yeah,” she said on an exhale.
“And seeing you masturbate for me again,” he added.
“Only if you reciprocate,” she retorted.
His cock jerked in response to her words. “You want to watch me get myself off, Kenna?”
She nodded.
“Fuck. We need to get out of this beanbag. I think it’s an aphrodisiac,” he muttered.
Kenna laughed. “I’ve never felt like this when I’ve been in it before. It’s all you,” she said. “Us.”
“Us,” Aleck echoed. Then he took a deep breath. “On that note, I’m getting out.”
“I’ll give you a push,” Kenna said.
“Hands off the ass,” he warned.
She giggled.
Aleck leaned down and kissed her, loving the feel of her smile under his lips, then did his best to maneuver himself out of the beanbag without kneeing Kenna. She took advantage and let her hands stray as she attempted to “help” him out of the big bag.
After Aleck got to his feet, he reached down and pulled Kenna up as well. Then he wrapped his arms around her and just held her for a long moment.
“Not that I’m complaining, but what is this for?” she asked.
Without loosening his grip, and keeping his nose in her hair, he said, “It’s the hug I wanted to give you last night, but couldn’t.”
Kenna pulled back and Aleck allowed it. She looked up at him. “You’re a sappy fool under that badass Navy SEAL exterior, aren’t you?”
Without feeling self-conscious about her words in the least, Aleck said, “Only with you.”
She smiled. “Suck-up.”
“Nope. Just being honest. Go shower and change. Your breakfast will be waiting when you get out.”
“I could get used to this,” she quipped. “Being waited on hand and foot.”
“Me too,” Aleck said seriously. “Me too.”
They stared at each other for a long moment before Aleck dropped his arms and stepped back. Kenna looked like she wanted to say something else, but she simply smiled at him, then turned and headed for her bedroom.
As he heated up her coffee and pastries, Aleck couldn’t help but feel proud. She looked a hundred times more relaxed now than she had when he’d arrived. Granted, she’d been half asleep, but still. She even sounded more relaxed. It had been extremely difficult last night not to drive over here to comfort her. But his Kenna was tough. She’d proven it time and time again. She didn’t need him to comfort her, but he sure felt good that she’d let him.

Kenna turned to look at Marshall. He was driving them to his condo after spending the morning at the swap meet at Aloha Stadium. He’d been a good sport. It was obvious shopping wasn’t his favorite thing to do. He’d bought only one thing—a ring she’d looked at and had decided against buying.
But he hadn’t haggled over the price at all. Had simply asked the woman who ran the stand how much and didn’t hesitate to hand over the twenty bucks she’d quoted. Kenna had tried to protest, but when he’d grabbed her right hand and slipped it down her middle finger, she’d practically melted into a pile of goo right there at his feet.
The ring obviously didn’t have any monetary value, but emotionally, it was priceless. Kenna knew she’d remember this day every time she saw it on her finger. It was a daisy, and probably made in China, but Kenna treasured it.
Their morning had been a wonderful surprise. She hadn’t meant to sleep so long, but when she’d woken up in Marshall’s arms, she’d felt amazingly good. She hadn’t meant to touch herself while in his arms, but she couldn’t help it. Marshall’s mouth on her breasts had felt incredible, and it had been so long since she’d let down her guard with a man that before she’d even realized it, she was touching herself.
It turned out to be one of the hottest moments she’d ever shared with a man. Looking into Marshall’s eyes when she’d come had been…earth-shattering. Even through her pleasure, she could see his own reflecting back in his eyes. He enjoyed seeing her come, and hadn’t been concerned about getting himself off afterward, which was quite a change from most men she’d been with.
