“Fuck.” I hissed through teeth.
The water began splashing out onto the floor, and the sound seemed to turn Ellie on even more.
“Yes. Oh God, yes. Gunner…I’m coming. I’m coming.”
I dropped my head back and held off for as long as I could before it felt like I exploded inside of her. I grabbed her and pulled her body close to mine, holding her, as I poured myself into her. I never wanted this feeling to end…ever.
I spun Ellie around on the dance floor as she laughed. I knew she never got the chance to just let her hair down, so tonight, it was all about her. We danced so much that I felt like I could puke if I had to spin around one more time.
Ellie leaned in and shouted, “I think I need to leave! I’m exhausted, Gunner.”
Thank God. I nodded my head and pointed to the bar. “I need a water really quick.”
She smiled and grabbed my hand as we made our way to the bar. I ordered two waters, and when I handed Ellie the water, she downed the bottle in one drink. I followed and drank it down in one drink, too.
As soon as we got outside, we both sighed and then laughed. She jumped into my arms, and I spun her around.
“Jesus, I’m not cut out for this kind of stuff anymore. Sex all day and dancing all night—it’s too much!”
I laughed. “I agree. My damn feet are killing me.”
“Hotel?” Ellie asked.
“Yes.”
By the time we got back to our hotel and showered, we were exhausted. Ellie crawled under the covers, naked, and I followed. I pulled her right up next to my body and took in everything about her—the way she smelled, the feel of her skin against mine, and her slow and steady breathing.
She’s my everything. She will always be my everything. I closed my eyes and listened to her breathing become slow and steady as she drifted off to sleep.
“I love you, Ellie.”
“I love you, Drew. I love you more than anything.”
I smiled as I began to drift off to sleep. I dreamed of walking along the river with Ellie as we held hands, forever in love. Always.
I opened my eyes and smiled when I saw the hint of daylight shining through the curtains. I glanced over to the clock and saw it was ten thirty in the morning. I sat up quickly and searched for my phone. I grabbed it and saw a text conversation between Alex and Gunner.
Alex: Good morning, Mama and Daddy. Colt is being a brat, but I’m excusing it since I’m sure he misses you both something awful, just like I do. You’re still coming home tomorrow, right?
Me: Hey, baby girl. It’s Daddy. Smack Colt around a little bit and show him who’s boss. Yes, sweetheart, we will be home tomorrow. Mommy and Daddy miss you and Colt so much, but we’re having a lot of fun.
Alex: Have you bought Mommy flowers yet?
Me: No. Do you think I should?
Alex: Yep. Daddy, pick some off the side of the road. You know, get the daisy ones she loves so much. I think she would like that so much better. It shows you put more effort into it by picking them.
Me: When did you grow up? I’ll try my best, but trying to find flowers here in Austin on the side of the road is kind of hard. It’s a big city and all.
Alex: Ha-ha. I miss y’all. See you tomorrow. Kiss Mommy.
Me: I miss you and Colt, baby. See you tomorrow, and I will give Mommy a kiss.
I smiled as I set my phone down. “Gunner?” Looking toward the bathroom, I slowly got out of bed. I grinned as I felt every sore muscle in my body from the last two evenings while I made my way to the bathroom. I walked into the bathroom only to find it empty. Reaching for my robe, I put it on as I headed back out and picked up my cell phone.
Me: Where are you?
Gunner: Morning, sweetheart! Be right up!
Me: Okay. ?
I set my phone down and walked over to the Victoria’s Secret bag. There were panties, a bra, and a baby-doll nightie in the bag. I slipped the nightie on and turned to look at myself in the mirror.
“Not bad for a mom with two kids,” I said as I looked at my toned body.
Of course, walking every day with Ari and Emma and working in the garden and around the ranch had contributed to much of my toned body.
I spun around, reached for the vibrator, and pulled it out. I smiled as I reached for the handcuffs and headed back to the bed. I slipped both under my pillow and lay down on the bed. I moved and pulled my leg up, trying to pull off the seductive look, but it felt awkward. Then, I turned a different way, but that felt forced. I got up on my knees, and I was about to try another position when the door opened. I looked up, and Gunner stopped dead in his tracks. I smiled and bit down on my lip as I tried my best to look sexy.
“Jesus H. Christ.” Gunner shut the door. Then, he set two cups of coffee, a bag, and some flowers he had in his hand on the table. He lifted his T-shirt over his head and quickly stripped out of his jeans.
I smiled as I felt my core tighten. I began chewing on my lower lip. I was always a nervous wreck when we played like this. I wasn’t sure why I enjoyed playing so much, but I was always afraid Gunner would think less of me even though he had repeated that he loved to play with vibrators on me.
He was on the bed and pushing me down before I could even say a word. His hand moved up the baby-doll nightie, and he began twisting and pulling on my nipple as he kissed me. I let out a moan as I reached my other hand under the pillow. I reached around for the handcuffs before pulling them out and holding them up.
Gunner pulled back and smiled as he took them and grabbed my left hand. He put the cuff on my left wrist and then grabbed my right hand. He looked at the headboard and made a face. He sat up and looked around. He got up and used his finger to motion for me to stand up. I stood, and he led me over to a chair.
“Sit down, Ellie, and spread your legs open…wide.”
I instantly felt a rush of wetness between my legs. I did as he’d asked. He walked behind me, took my arms, and placed them behind the back of the chair. Then, he handcuffed my right hand to my left.
He walked around to the front again. “Move to the edge of the chair, baby.”
I did just that, and my body clenched in anticipation for what he was about to do.
“Do you like when I make you come with my mouth, Ells?”
I nodded my head. “Yes…very much.”
He dropped to his knees and pushed the chair back, causing me to let out a gasp.
“Damn, you’re so beautiful.” He licked his lips and held the chair back just enough to tilt me back, giving him a better angle.
When he brushed his tongue across my clit, I jumped. “Oh God.”
