As I waited, I reclined against the back of the bed, not surprised in the slightest that my cock was still hard and aching for Autumn. He was going to become greedy after this. I was going to become greedy after this.

Thunder and lightning continued to duel outside the trailer and I watched as Autumn jumped when she exited the bathroom as another loud roar sounded.

“Come here, baby,” I said, holding my arms out for her.

Shuffling her way toward the bed, I gripped her around the waist and settled her on my thighs, facing me. Autumn leaned her head on my shoulder as I wrapped my arms around her waist. The scent of her shampoo, something floral and sex filled my senses as I leaned my head against hers.

“How long do you think this storm will last?” she asked me, trailing her finger haphazardly through the dusting of hair on my chest.

“I don’t know. By the looks of the radar earlier, probably a couple more hours.” She mumbled incoherently against my shoulder, then I felt the lightest of pecks against my collarbone. My cock jumped to attention between our bodies.

At first, I thought Autumn was going to ignore it because the tiny thing had to be sore, but her fingers trailed from my chest down to my dick. Her small fingers wrapped around the base, none of the tips able to touch, and worked their way upward toward the tip.

Closing my eyes, I groaned her name into the night air.

“What are you doing, baby?” I asked, prying my eyes open to find Autumn watching herself work me over in fascination.

“Making you feel good.”

“Are you sore?”

“A little, but there are other things I can do,” she said, amazing me as she shimmied back on my legs to align her mouth with the tip of my cock.

I wasn’t sure I could take much of that torture. My dick was dead set on being inside her pussy again.

My hips jerked and I fisted the bed sheets as her plump lips settled over the mushroom tip, sucking gently on the skin. “Fucking hell.”

Autumn worked me over with her mouth and hands until I was begging her to quit.

“I need you to stop, sweetheart. I don’t want to come in your mouth yet.”

“What do you want?” she asked coyly, tugging the jersey off her body, then placing her hands on those breasts I wanted to become better acquainted with.

“I want you to get your perfect pussy over here and sit yourself on my dick.”

Crawling her way back up my body, Autumn replied, “Really?”

“Yes. Now fucking ride my cock.”

Flashes of light lit up the inside of the camper and I didn’t miss the sexy as hell smirk that grew on Autumn’s lips as she gripped my dick and directed it to her sex.

“Yes, sir.”

Chapter Fourteen – Autumn

I was hiding. It had been two days since I snuck away from a sleeping Colton in the early morning light after our tryst. Something about being in that confined space with him and the crazy weather that Mother Nature had brewed up had snapped something inside of me. I’d acted and done things I’d never considered before with my exes, but with Colton, it all felt perfect. He had been both gentle and animalistic as he took me over three times that night.  One of which I had initiated myself.

Embarrassment flooded through me as I thought about how needy I had been that night and how much my body craved a repeat performance.

And I was mad as hell over it.

I should have known that Colton would have that effect on me. Somehow, the man had wormed his way over the walls I’d constructed the day I left New York. Those were the same walls Max had barely been able to sneak through when I had given him a chance.

“Ma’am? Can I take your order?” the barista repeated, breaking me free from my musings.

“Chai latte,” I said with a grunt, scaring both the server and the woman standing behind me in line.

“Wow. If you continue to growl, no one is going to want you to move back home.” Ready to give the observer my two cents, I turned to find Lily Chisolm sitting at a bistro table alone.

Stepping over to her table, the sounds of the coffee shop drowning out my groan, I asked her how she knew I hadn’t made a decision yet.

“Betsy,” we said at the same time and then giggled in unison. That woman knew everything about everyone.

“Yeah, the town is growing on me a bit, but I just want to make sure I make the right choice.” I didn’t want to tell her that the man staying at her house had a bit of something to do with my inability to decide.

“I understand, but remember, make the decision for you, not for anyone else. Anyway, I have a class to teach in a few minutes, so I hate to run off.”

That was when I noticed she was dressed in spandex athletic wear from head to toe.

“I teach yoga at the small gym down the street. You should come sometime.”

She couldn’t have known that I’d never stepped foot inside a gym, but I wasn’t about to tell her that. But she looked at least twenty years younger than she was, closer to my age for sure. Maybe that could be something new that I did for myself.

“You should also think about coming to the book club meeting on Wednesday. Your sisters are usually there and sometimes your mom joins them.”

“Oh, what book are you reading? I have plenty of time to catch up.”

My eyes widened as Lily freed a boisterous laugh, tilting her head back as she let it out.

“Oh, sweet girl. We don’t actually read any books. It’s more like a chance to get together, drink some wine, and gossip.”

“Oh.”

“Oh my. I haven’t laughed that hard in years,” she claimed as she swiped her fingertips under her eyes.

Normally being the butt of a joke would have me hightailing it out of the shop, but I knew Lily wasn’t laughing at me to be malicious. The woman didn’t have a mean bone in her body.

As she stood from the table, I agreed that I’d try to make it to the book club and then waved her goodbye just as my drink was ready.

I had plans to meet up with Alex this morning, so I took my order to go and stepped out onto the sidewalk. The sun was shining, as if we hadn’t experienced a deadly storm just days before. People milled about without a care in the world, smiling at each other as they passed. But years of walking the New York streets had hardened me. There was no quick grin or warm greeting. I strutted with my head down toward my destination, ignoring everyone in my path.

“Autumn?” a voice called out from behind me and I cringed. “Hey, Autumn. Wait up.”

My body straightened as I inhaled a deep breath as I came face to face with the man I’d snuck away from.

“Hey,” he said in a surprisingly chipper mood considering the last time we were together. “I thought that was you. I was in the hardware store picking out some fixtures for the house when I saw you pass by the window.”

“Oh, well, here I am,” I said petulantly. I wasn’t sure where my attitude was emerging from, but there was nothing I could do to push it aside.
