Loving Her (Mitchell Family #9)(21)
“Yeah, paybacks are a bitch.
“It’s not your fault. Some men just can’t perform for long periods of time. That’s what they created vibrators for,” Van blurted out.
“Right, every woman owns a rabbit,” Miranda added.
“Are we going to play cards, or make fun of me all night?”
Colt reached his arms behind his head. “I’m pretty entertained.”
It was a good thing the puppy was in the kitchen, because the smell of dog shit got everyone’s attention at once. “Whoa!”
“Oh crap!” Van jumped up and grabbed paper towels and cleaner. “I’ve never trained a puppy before. How long does it normally take?”
Colt laughed. “Darlin’, it’s goin’ to take a little more than one day. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure we all take turns lettin’ her out.”
I had to laugh, knowing that Van never really had pets. She didn’t have a clue when it came to puppies. It was pretty funny, considering her husband ran a ranch full of livestock.
After a good fifteen minutes, we settled down and started playing rummy. The kids passed out in the living room, except for Izzy and Noah, who stayed up in his room playing with their tablets. They were getting too old to play with the little ones anyway.
When it came time to head out, Colt and I carried the boys to the golf cart. Izzy always spent the night with Noah, which was good, because carrying three sleeping kids was difficult.
We didn’t spend time changing into pajamas. Instead we stripped down to our underwear and climbed into bed. Miranda turned to face me and smiled. “You’re still thinkin’ about today, aren’t you?”
I shrugged and played with her blonde hair. “I can’t help it.”
“She’s yours in every way, babe. No one can ever take that away from you.”
“In my heart, I know that. I’d do anything to protect her from bein’ hurt. I guess I never considered that something as stupid as buying a puppy could jeopardize everything we have.”
Miranda pulled my hand up to her lips and kissed the back of my knuckles. She slid her cheek over the back of my hand and closed her eyes. “You’re the best thing that’s ever happened to us. After all we’ve been through, and everything you’ve done to protect us, I’d never, in a million years, allow anyone to take her from you.”
I leaned over and kissed my wife, keeping my lips there on her skin. “I love you, baby. For the record, I can last way longer than five minutes and you know it. So does Van, for that matter. You two suck.”
Miranda laughed so hard she snorted. “You got so mad about it. It was funny.”
I jumped on top of her and she laughed more, losing her breath. “I’ll show you what’s funny.”
If she thought I could only last five minutes, I was going to make sure she never said it again. Only one thing could take my mind off of Izzy, and it was making sweet love to my wife.
Tomorrow was another day and as long as I had my girls, and my boys, everything would work itself out.
Chapter 12
Miranda
His kisses never got old, especially when they were kissing areas of my body that nobody else got to see. As he pulled down my panties, I could feel his wet lips leaving a trail of saliva over my hip. My ass lifted, and I felt the fabric moving down until they were coming off of my ankles. Ty was up on his knees, splitting my legs so that he could get up between them. I moaned when I grabbed both of my ankles and felt him teasing me with his hard cock. With the boys a couple rooms over, we didn’t have time to savor each other like I would have wanted to, but I also knew that Ty was determined to prove something to me.
He’d been so offended when Van and I ganged up on him, accusing him of not being able to last for more than five minutes. I guess men were sensitive when it came to anything having to do with their meat.
“You better hurry up, before one of them comes beatin’ on the door,” I whispered.
“Let them beat on it. I’m going all night.”
I rolled my eyes, but gasped when he entered me. He pulled me up to sit on top of his legs, and held onto my ass so he could be in control of the pace. Ty’s kisses were ravenous, all because of a silly mission. Both of us knew that there was no way we’d last all night, not that either of us would even want to. Sleep was like a pot of gold after the day that we’d had. If either of us wanted to be able to keep up with the boys the next day, we’d need at least six or seven hours, otherwise they’d try to take over the world.
Our tongues collided, and even with little foreplay, I could feel my body changing as it became highly turned on. Tingling had begun in my nipples, especially when Ty reached up and pinched them. His fingers were rough and it added an extra tickle each time they brushed across my hardened points.
My bra was only lingering on my arms, so he pulled it off of me and set it to the side of us while I began rocking on top of him.
The cold room had become hot instantly as the friction between us brought our bodies to the brink of sweating. I ran one hand over my naked husband’s chest, peering into his eyes, while our skin vibrated together. Our strides were slow and matched as we became consumed in the moment.
We both needed release, but Ty longed for it. He needed to feel connected to someone after the emotional day he’d experienced. I wanted him to feel my love radiating towards him. He needed to know that, no matter what happened in our lives, I was never going to leave his side.
