Through Rosie-Colored Glasses: Book Three in the Game Winner Series Page 9

by Nicole, Angela


  I throw her my best smirk. “Not anymore. I may have fucked up with Mia by not putting our relationship first. I won’t make that mistake with you.”

  Carol

  I’ve never felt like this before. This man wants to take care of me? I don’t know what that’s like. Since my parents died, it’s always been me in charge. I take care of everyone else.

  “Will you let me do that Carol? Will you let me take care of you and Rosie?”

  Before I can answer, we both jump at the sound of the fireworks going off overhead. I don’t know if it’s a sign but I nod my head letting Von know I’d like to see where this relationship goes.

  “I’m going to talk with Chris tomorrow, okay?”

  “Yes. I’d like that.”

  Von lets me down in the pool and takes my face in his hands. “I’m not saying I won’t be a jerk sometimes but I want to try and be a better person for you, Carol. You and your daughter deserve the best.”

  He looks so vulnerable right now. I don’t even think about it. I take his hand and lead him out of the pool. He follows me without saying a word.

  We make our way over to where he has stacked towels for his guests. Grabbing one, I gently begin to dry him off.

  “Carol,” he begins but I brush my lips against his broad chest. Kissing him lightly, I try and show him that I can take care of him too.

  “Come on. Let’s go sit on the porch and watch the rest of the fireworks.”

  He doesn’t say anything but follows me out front after I wrapped myself in a towel.

  Von pulls me down onto his lap, surprising me. We sit on the porch as a couple, not caring what anyone sees. I admit I’m a little nervous about Leo spotting us in such a cozy position. I don’t want him to tell my brother before Von has a chance to talk with him. I already feel guilty about not telling Chris myself, but I get a sense Von wants to do it man to man. I admire that.

  “You okay,” he whispers.

  “Yeah, I’m just a little nervous about Rosie. I’ve never introduced her to anyone I’ve dated since my divorce. She already likes you, Von. I just don’t want her to be confused.”

  He moves a piece of my hair behind my ear as the red, white and blue fireworks go off overhead.

  “We don’t have to tell her just yet if you want to wait.”

  I nod, “You won’t be mad?”

  “No, I understand it. I don’t think we’ll have an issue with Cass,” he laughs. “She’s been after me to date for the last year. And I can tell she likes you and Rosie. Not that it’d matter if she didn’t,” he says.

  I know it’d matter to him if his daughter didn’t want us to date. But I don’t think I have to worry much about that.

  We both are startled a bit when the grand finale goes off making us laugh. I glance over at Von who’s not looking at the fireworks but instead staring at me.

  “Stay with me tonight,” he whispers.

  God, I want to.

  “I don’t know Von.”

  “Okay I just thought maybe we’ve both had way too much to drink and neither of us should drive. I’m sure your brother wouldn’t want us to risk it,” he winks.

  I giggle at his excuse knowing we’re both sober as hell.

  “I don’t need an excuse to stay Von. If I want to stay I’ll stay. I’m in my mid-forties, I don’t have to get permission from anyone.”

  Before he can say anything, we hear some of the party guests coming across the street back to his place. When I start to move from his lap, he tightens his hold around my waist.

  “Leo’s still here Von.”

  “If you really care, I’ll let you up but if not, I’d love for you to stay here in my lap and home tonight.”

  I guess it’s the moment of truth. What do I want?

  Sophia’s giggles meet my ears, but for some reason, I don’t panic. I nod to Von and settle in.

  Most of the guests say their goodbyes or wave and get in their cars parked along the street. But not Leo. He spots me sitting in Von’s lap and makes his way over. He’s dragging Sophia by the hand and he looks pissed.

  Great.

  “Leo wait,” Sophia says but he makes his way to the porch.

  “Wanna tell me what’s going on here?”

  I burst out laughing because he sounds just like Chris would.

  “Well, I was enjoying Carol’s company while watching the fireworks.”

  This makes Sophia giggle. Leo turns to his wife, “You know something about this?”

  “Leo, come on. You sound like my dad right now,” she admonishes her husband.

  “Does Chris know about this?” His question pointed at me.

  “No, but Von is going to talk with him tomorrow so we’d appreciate you not saying anything.”

  Leo runs his hand through his hair. He looks at Sophia who nods at him. He blows out a breath but reluctantly agrees. “If you don’t tell him tomorrow, then I will.”

  “Yes Dad,” I say with a salute.

  “Fuck this is weird,” Leo says shaking his head.

  “I think it’s nice,” Sophia answers back.

  “You would,” Leo laughs. “Alright, we’ll leave you two kids alone. Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do. Wait! Forget I just said that.”

  Sophia grabs his hand. “Let’s go.”

  With a quick goodbye the last of the guests are gone. Suddenly, I’m nervous. Not that we’re definitely going to have sex tonight but just the thought makes my stomach flip. I haven’t had sex in three years.

  “Carol?”

  “I’m okay just a little nervous I guess.”

  He turns my face to meet his, “We don’t have to do anything you’re not ready for. I just want to hold you and have you in my bed tonight.”

  I arch my eyebrow. “That’s really all you want Von?”

  He smiles and shakes his head. “Okay, I won’t lie. Of course, I’d like more but only when you’re ready.”

  What I’d really like is to finish what we started at my brother’s wedding. Deciding I need to take the plunge and get my life back, I stand and reach my hand out to Von.

  The sexy smirk on Mr. Broody is back. It’s the one that makes me squeeze my thighs together needing friction. Von takes my hand and brings it to his mouth. He runs his lips gently across my knuckles making me shiver.

  “Cold?” He asks with a fire in his eyes as he pulls me up against his hard body.

  “I think it’s my wet bathing suit,” I lie. “I should probably take it off.”

  Von elicits a gasp from me when he picks me up, throwing me over his shoulder. “Oh my God Von, you’ll hurt yourself. I’m heavy.”

  My self-doubt earns me a smack on my ass. “You won’t say that shit about yourself in front of me Carol.”

  I’m shocked at how much I’m turned on right now. The feeling of his hand on my butt made me feel a warmth inside I’ve never felt before.

  “Sorry,” I squeak out as Von maneuvers through his house to his roo, and the whole time I’m staring at his ass. And it’s a damn fine one.

  He puts me down and the second my feet hit the floor, his mouth is on mine. My knees want to give out. He must sense it because he wraps his strong arm around my waist holding me up.

  I whimper against his mouth, provoking a groan from him. His hands move from my hips to my shoulders. My bathing suit top ties in the back. I reach up to undo it, but he stops me.

  Von

  I’m hanging on by a thread here. Having Carol in my arms is everything. I can smell her arousal and fuck if it doesn’t make my dick harder than I thought possible.

  I’m trying to take it slowly, but she’s making it almost impossible. My dick is straining against my board shorts. I know she can feel it because she gently rubs herself against me.

  Carol reaches up to undo her top, but I stop her.

  “Let me.”

  I take a deep breath. It’s as if I’ve never done this before. Okay, so it’s been a while. In fact, I haven’t been with anyone since M
ia. But Carol is worth the wait.

  Moving behind her, I kiss her left shoulder as I untie her top allowing it to fall to her hips. She moans my name and it goes straight my dick. I reach up to her neck and lay a kiss to her other shoulder.

  “Von, please,” she begs as she lays her head back against my chest.

  “I know sweetheart,” I say against her perfect, soft skin. “We’ve waited a long time for this moment and I don’t want to rush.”

  She rubs her ass against my dick in response, egging me on.

  I shimmy her top up over her head, her arms immediately go to cover her full breasts. She’s embarrassed and I won’t have it.

  Moving to the front of Carol, I take her hands and pull them away allowing me to look at her.

  She’s perfect. Her breasts are full with light pink nipples.

  Carol looks down at the floor but I tip her chin back up so her eyes meet mine. I want her to see the hunger I have for her.

  “You’re the sexiest woman I’ve ever seen Carol. I’ve wanted this moment ever since the wedding, but I didn’t think I deserved it.”

  “Maybe it’s time you and I focus on the future instead of mistakes we’ve made.”

  It’s as if her proclamation was the permission I needed to let go and face the inevitable.

  I possess her mouth with mine. My tongue dances across her bottom lip as she pulls me deeper into the kiss with my face cradled in her hands.

  Carol moans into my mouth as her hardened nipples tease my bare chest.

  My hands move down to her waistband. Hooking my fingers inside, I slide her the rest of her bathing suit down enough for it to fall to them to all to the floor.

  She steps out of her bottoms without breaking our kiss. I pull her hips against mine, creating that friction I know she needs.

  When my hands move to her perfect ass, she jumps up, wrapping her legs around my waist.

  I walk her back to the edge of my bed. Laying her back, I move to the edge of the bed, missing her lips on mine.

  Again Carol’s arms go to cover herself.

  “Do it again sweetheart and I’ll tie those pretty little hands to my bed.”

  I smirk at the look of shock on Carol’s face. But she better know I won’t stand for her insecurities.

  I watch her go to war with herself over what I’m asking but eventually her arms fall to her side, allowing me the view I’ve been craving for so long.

  I lean over her luscious curves, caressing her nipples with my tongue. Carol arches into me, offering herself as if she’s a sacrifice.

  With one hand on her hip and the other on her thigh, I move my mouth to just below the valley of her breasts continuing to her stomach. As I slowly inch lower, Carol gasps.

  “Von?” She questions with a husky voice. And fuck if it doesn’t turn me on more.

  “Relax sweetheart. I’m going to take good care of you first. Make sure you’re nice and ready for me.”

  Glancing up at her, Carol is looking back at me with worry.

  “Von, I’ve never um, had you know an orgasm before. I mean not like this.”

  Fuck if part of me wants to be the first man to do this for her, but the other part wonders who the hell she’s been dating.

  “I don’t want you to be disappointed if it doesn’t happen,” she says with a sad smile.

  It’s all the incentive I need.

  “Von,” she giggles as I pull her ass to the edge of the bed.

  My mouth on her center stops the giggling and leads instead to Carol moaning. And shit, I haven’t even started yet.

  Carol

  Lap, lick and suck.

  “Von,” I half whimper, half moan.

  He doesn’t let up.

  The feeling he’s bringing to me is the most intense thing I’ve ever felt.

  As my hands grip his comforter, my once tense legs are now like jelly as they fall open to him. I can’t fight it anymore.

  “I love the taste of you Carol. So fucking sweet just like you.”

  My heart races at the thought. His words and movements are turning me on so much, I can feel my own wetness dripping down me. My hands go to the back of his head holding him, encouraging him not to stop. I think if he does, I may die.

  I watch him as he moans against me, acknowledging my sudden control of the situation. It doesn’t last though. I’m at his mercy when he pulls me closer, laying my legs on his shoulders. It’s as if he can’t get close enough…for either of us. No man has ever made me feel like this before. My head falls back to the bed as I feel that familiar tightening. It’s almost too much to take. I almost tell him to stop, but I can’t. I need this too much.

  My hips come off the bed. “Don’t stop,” I whisper.

  And he doesn’t. Instead, this man with a magical mouth intensifies the pressure on me. When he inserts a finger into my already sensitive center, I lose it.

  “Fuckkkkkk!” I drag out as my orgasm begins to roll through me.

  Von follows me as I scoot back from the edge. But he doesn’t let go.

  Oh my god, I feel another building.

  “Von, I can’t.”

  “Yes, you can. I feel it coming, You’re so close.”

  His thumb hits my clit and I’m over the edge again. I moan his name the entire length of my orgasm. I think I may have blacked out for a few seconds because once my breathing slows, Von’s mouth is on mine giving me a long deep kiss.

  I can taste myself on his tongue. It’s erotic and I don’t hate it.

  With his forehead to mine, he asks if I’m okay.

  “More than okay. That was crazy,” I whisper.

  “Thank you for trusting me, Carol. I know that wasn’t easy for you.”

  I giggle. “It was a lot easier than I thought it would be.”

  He pulls me in close. Laying my head on his muscular chest, I run my fingers over the small amount of hair he has there.

  We stay like that for a few minutes. Neither of us saying a word, only listening to our breathing.

  Leaning up on my elbow, I cup his cheek.

  His beautiful face lights up in a smile that has my body humming again.

  “My turn,” I tell him as I reach for the waistband of his swim trunks, but he grabs my hand.

  “No way sweetheart. I can’t hold out that long. I want to be buried deep inside you when I come.”

  Oh my god. No man has ever talked to me this way. My ex hardly said anything during sex. It was so mechanical compared to Von. I know after tonight he’s ruining me for anyone else.

  He pulls the covers off, stands and drops his shorts. I know my eyes bulge out at the sight of him. He’s already hard and I haven’t even touched him yet.

  “Like what you see sweetheart?”

  Christ, he’s so cocky but I can’t hide my smile. This is who he is. Sweet and tender one minute, cocky the next. It’s a perfect combination.

  Reaching into his nightstand, he pulls out three condoms. One, two, three. He lays them out on the bed never taking his eyes off me.

  “I had my tubes tied,” I blurt out. “After Rosie was diagnosed, I didn’t think I’d want to risk having more children.”

  Von acknowledges what I’m telling him. I don’t want anything between us.

  “I have regular physicals, Carol. I haven’t been with another woman since my wife.”

  Our admissions bringing a quietness to his bedroom. I start to get inside my head. Here I am in the house he shared with Mia. Is this their bed?

  “Carol? What’s going on in your head?” He asks as the bed dips and he moves back to me.

  I shake my head. “Nothing.”

  “Now isn’t the time to let something come between us sweetheart,” he whispers as his fingers trace my ear.

  “I guess I didn’t think about being here, in your bed until just now when you mentioned Mia.”

  Feeling like I want to run, Von’s reassurance is everything.

  “I didn’t live here with Mia. I sold our house after I
found out about her affair. I couldn’t be there anymore.”

  Now I feel like an ass. Why did I have to bring it up? I have no claim on Von. We’re barely dating after all.

  Von clears his throat. “Can we forget about Mia and your ex? I don’t want there to be anyone else in this room tonight but me and you.”

  “I’m sorry.”

  He shakes his head. “No apologies. This is new for both of us Carol. It wouldn’t be real if there weren’t some of our past creeping in. We both come with things that make us who we are now. There’s no shame in asking questions. Are you okay with this? With us?”

  “Yes,” I whisper back to him. “I want to focus on my future, not my past.”

  “Then no more talking about it tonight. Tonight, in this room, it’s you and me.”

  I nod my affirmation.

  “If you want me to make love to you bare sweetheart, I will.”

  “Von,” it’s a plea.

  He moves to me, his eyes holding mine as he strokes himself. Lowering himself onto the bed, he kisses me long and deep. I run my hands down his arms and then wrap them around his back. I can feel the definition of his muscles against my fingertips.

  I make myself open to him. He settles in between my legs, his thumbs caressing my face. My heart wants to burst at his tenderness. But that feeling is no match for what comes next.

  Von

  Slowly, I inch into Carol’s wetness. She’s so goddamn tight. She moans my name.

  “Am I hurting you?”

  She shakes her head. “No, I want to feel all of you Von, now.”

  If I wasn’t such a selfish asshole, I’d tell her no, that I’m going to take my time but I can’t. It’s killing me too.

  With one thrust, I bury myself deep inside Carol. We both gasp at the feeling. “I’ll give you time to adjust to me gorgeous.”

  She nods, her eyes focused on my lips I kiss her aggressively. Her body opens to mine. I begin to move inside her. She feels like the one thing I’ve searched since Mia…life.

  “Oh god, you feel so good Von,” she whispers against my lips.
