Choosing Us (Pierced Hearts Duet #1)(40)

“Are you trying to make me cry?”

“No, I’m trying to make you wet. Is it working?”

She giggled. “Maybe you should see for yourself, Aiden Pierce.”

“Are you testing me, baby? Cuz you know I want nothing more than to bury my face inside of your panties right now.”

Her mouth dropped open. “Where did you learn to talk like this?”

“Why? You like it?”

She cleared her throat. “Maybe.”

“Good,” I rasped. “Spread your legs further for me then.”

She did, shaking a little. Anticipating what I had in store for her.

“Jackson and Jagger, huh? Sounds like you want a country band.”

“Maybe I do. You’d look so cute wearing a cowboy hat.”

I spread her legs wider, continuing my way up her inner thigh.

In the best Southern accent I could muster, I replied, “Now I reckon that means we’d need a little girl who looks just like her momma, and by that, I mean you.”

“A little girl? Then I’d have to share my thunder.”

“A king needs a princess as much as he needs a queen.”

She beamed, her heart of gold melting in the palm of my hand with each word that left my tongue. I stared deep into her eyes. “Promise me you’ll give me a baby girl who we will name Journey.”

“Jackson, Jagger, and Journey? Now that sounds like a country band if I ever heard one.”

With a serious expression, I stated the truth, “We have a long road ahead of us, baby, but it will always be worth the journey. Because at the end of the day, it’s what leads us back to each other.”

Her eyes watered and her lip trembled.

“Promise me, Bailey.”

“I promise.” She wiped away a tear.

“Happy tears, right?”

She nodded. “How do you do that, Aiden? How can you look at me like that?”

“Like what?”

“Like I’m your whole world.”

“It’s easy. You are,” I simply stated, meaning each and every word.

She shut her eyes, the emotion too much for her to handle. I slowly stood up and pulled her toward me, wrapping her legs around my waist. Pressing my forehead up against her, I reached up and swept the hair away from her face.

“Look at me, Bay.”

She cautiously did.

Her bright blue eyes were my undoing. The sincerity in them did it to me every damn time.

So much emotion erupted behind her gaze, and I knew it mirrored mine. There was no need for words, our eyes spoke for themselves as my hands caressed the sides of her cheeks. Without any hesitation, I tugged her mouth toward mine. Softly breathing inches away from her heated face. Taking in the curve of her eyes, the light freckles from the sun, and the way her perfect skin felt along my fingertips. Before our mouths became one.

Her lips were just as I remembered, even though I had claimed her mouth hundreds of times by that point. It always felt like I was coming home.

Bailey would forever be my home.

She sought out my tongue before I had the opportunity to find hers. Moaning into my mouth the second our tongues collided.

Our mouths went to war with one another. The kiss was soft but demanding, controlled but passionate, and fucking intense as all hell.

“Aiden,” she erratically breathed, panting on my lips.

“Yeah, baby?” I growled with the same heady tone.

“I want you.”

My thoughts.

My words.

They were all suddenly tangled with one another.

“I want you more than I have ever wanted anyone in my entire life,” I confessed.

She whimpered, begging, “Please.”

It was as clear as day.

My eyes glazed over.

My jaw clenched.

My body tensed.

Like a possessed man.

My cock got hard as fuck.

“You’re so beautiful, Bailey. So fucking beautiful,” I whispered, kissing down the side of her neck. Inch by inch down to her breasts, leaving a trail of desire in my wake.

Lapping.

Needing.

Sucking.

She became my undoing.

In one quick movement, her dress and bra were off, and all she was left in was her panties. The vision of her topless in front of me was a memory I’d take to my grave.

I sucked her nipple into my mouth for the first time ever, and I wasn’t just referring to hers. Bailey was my first everything.

Her friendship.

Her lips.

Her love.

Her pussy would eventually be mine and only mine as well.

She squirmed beneath my touch as my left hand caressed her other breast. She felt me everywhere, every inch of her skin tingling from the sensations of my mouth and hands.

She could feel my hard dick, pressing on her wet core through the thin fabric of my athletic shorts. Purposely moving my hips to create friction that sent shivers all over our bodies.

Peering up at her with hooded eyes, I broke the silence, “I want to taste you, Bay. I want to make you come in my mouth.”

I didn’t know what the hell I was doing, but I’d watched enough porn to figure it out. I wanted this to be good for my girl, she deserved that and so much more.

Bailey moaned in response, sucking in her bottom lip. Reeling in our passion, her back arched for me to do exactly what I wanted.
