Unchained Hearts (Baxter Family Saga)

by Palessa

  “I thought the movie we saw yesterday had a big shark in it.”

  Virgilia smiled, despite herself. “Cass, I’m serious.”

  He stepped closer and pulled her to him. “I can tell, and I don’t care what my family thinks,” he said. He knew she was about to say something else and sighed. “Look, Lila, I can’t explain it. I just know that if I don’t explore these feelings I have for you, I’ll regret it for the rest of my life. I don’t want to live like that and I know you don’t either, do you?”

  Virgilia bit her lip and shook her head. She wanted to be with him, but her mind warned her it could end badly, even worse than she thought, but that voice wasn’t as strong as it once was. She closed her eyes and decided to throw it aside; this man, Cass, whom she’d just met was worth the risk.

  “Okay,” she said.

  His eyes lit up. “I just have one question...do you have that maid outfit with you?” He gave her that mischievous grin. “We have about three hours to kill and I think it could come in handy.”

  Feeling bolder than she ever knew possible, Virgilia smiled. “I can think of a few things we could do to kill the time. Follow me.”

  She led him into the house. Just as she dropped her bag, she could feel his hand on her waist and his lips on her neck.

  “I told you last night that I was going to make it up to you, not being able to kiss you.”

  She turned in his arms and he pressed her body tightly to his. Cass had never wanted a woman more. Her hips fit against his groin perfectly. Virgilia looked deep into his darkening green eyes as his lips grazed hers. At first it was gentle, then the kiss grew deeper, drawing her tongue into his mouth. She tasted so sweet and he could feel his dick swell in his pants.

  Virgilia enjoyed Cass’ raw desire for her. She could feel his growing hardness press against her and it made her feel both powerful and vulnerable at the same time. She gently led him back, pushing him onto the couch, straddling him once he sat down. Hiking up her skirt, her body immediately opened up to him.

  Cass opened her shirt, unhooking her bra at the front. Her breasts were so full and inviting. He massaged them and felt her back arch. A soft moan slipped through her lips as both her bra and shirt were quickly discarded. “I want to taste you so much.” Gently pulling her closer, he caught one and swirled his tongue around the dark berry nipple. “God, you’re sweet.” Caressing her back, he suckled the tender tip, then moved his head to give the other equal attention. Cass licked her breasts and her body arch to him, giving him all the access he could have wanted. Virgilia had never experienced such pleasure. Her skin tingled as she weaved her hands through his thick hair. Cass had one hand on her back and the other under her skirt, making its way to her bottom. She found herself holding on to him more closely, wanting to feel more of his naked skin.

  Virgilia’s moans were becoming more desperate as Cass intensified his efforts, letting his tongue graze and play. His Lila was a woman possessed. “Oh, Cass.” Virgilia delighted in the delicious wetness between her legs as he continued devouring her nipples. She never knew it could be like this and didn’t want it to end. He gently trailed his kisses from her breast, to her neck and finally to her slightly parted lips. The minute her tongue caressed his, he grew even harder. Virgilia’s hands held his cheek as she deepened her kisses. Cass delighted in her passion and decided to light the fuse. As she kissed him, his hands found their way inside her panties and slowly caressed her warm, wet vagina.

  With a sharp breath, she called out, “God, Cass.”

  She was more than ready.

  His hand pushed the crotch of her panties aside. Cass heard her whimper with delight as his fingers slowly caressed her womanhood. Virgilia inhaled sharply, raising her chest slowly, bracing herself using the back of the couch and the arm. Cass gave her vagina sweet attention as his fingers played with that little rough spot inside her. He watched his beautiful Lila respond with delicious moans, her body undulating, her head thrown back.

  Virgilia was ready to burst. Her body had never been so ripe, so vulnerable, and with Cass’ deep touches she couldn’t fight the waves of ecstasy rising to the surface. Cass reveled in the pleasure he was giving her and had to fight the urge to cum from sheer anticipation. He wanted her to feel even more. Gently, he curled his finger and saw her eyes fly open with her mouth agape. When he did it again it was more than enough to send her over the edge. Virgilia’s body shook uncontrollably as Cass held her close and whispered to her, “My, Lila, that was just the beginning.”

  As she recovered, Cass gently moved her to the side, kissing her as he slipped off her skirt and panties. He got up and made quick work of his own clothes and rejoined her, slipping something flat under one of the cushions.

  In her haze, Virgilia felt his kisses on her neck, her cheek, and then her lips. After what she had just experienced, she knew she wanted more. She pressed her body against his as close as she could get it.

  As her naked skin slid against his, Cass murmured. “You’re so soft, so delicious.”

  “Come inside me, I need you,” Virgilia whispered and at her urging, he reached under the cushions and pulled out the condom. While he kissed her, he unwrapped it, put it on, and gently moved her to her back. Leaning down, he nibbled her neck and rubbed the tip of his dick up and down her vagina. Cass found her lips and kissed her deeply. Reaching between them, Virgilia’s fingers found him and gently squeezed, guiding Cass inside of her.

  Cass got harder as he slowly glided into her wet sheath. She was so sweet and tight as he gently pulled out and thrust back in. He heard her gasp when she met his eyes. He looked for any signs of pain, and only found fire, her hips bucking against his.

  Cass closed his eyes, enjoying the way her sweet sex gripped him. With each thrust, she held him even tighter, milking him. “God, you feel so good, Lila. I never thought...oh!”

  She found his mouth and made his tongue hers. “Don’t hold back, Cass,” she murmured. “I want all of you.”

  With that little encouragement, his motions became deeper and more powerful. He was hilt deep with each thrust, and Virgilia’s body celebrated every stroke. His pace quickened and she could hear his breaths become shorter. Cass lost himself in her body and his heart soared. To feel this kind of pleasure and peace in this woman he just met, he couldn’t believe his luck. With every stroke he knew he would love her, his Lila, for the rest of his life. Hearing her moans and feeling her body give in to ecstasy made delicious fire gather deep within him and boil upward with a force that took Cass’ breath away. He was stunned at how powerful his orgasm had been; it had never been so intense before. He looked at the beauty beneath him. She was slowly recovering from her own pleasure. “You are so perfect,” he said, raining kisses on her face.

  “My Lila,” he panted. “My beautiful Lila. This is far from over.”

  Cass quickly removed the condom and disposed of it in the little bin next to the couch. He realized he was still partly hard. My God, he thought. The effect this woman had on him. He’d never wanted any woman as much as he wanted her and the thought made him smile.

  “Why the grin, Cass Baxter?” Virgilia asked, caressing his chest.

  “After love making like that...” He chuckled. “I’m going to be smiling for quite a while.”

  Virgilia sighed and Cass loved the sound of her satisfaction. He looked at her glowing skin, her luscious breasts, her round hips and just enjoyed how their bodies molded together so perfectly.

  “Just so you know, I have more condoms, when we’re ready,” Cass assured her.

  Virgilia giggled. “Oh, really? How many, exactly?”

  “An endless supply.” He gave her a wicked grin and a quick kiss.

  “Well, we don’t really need them. I’ve been on the pill for a while now.”

  “Baby, are you sure?” Cas
s asked, feeling himself swallow hard as her hands made their way between his legs.

  Virgilia nodded, grabbed his manhood gently and rubbed it up and down her vagina.

  As he gently entered her, Cass’ body shivered and realized this was a first. He’d never failed to use a condom with any woman. The last thing he wanted was an accident, but with Virgilia, it was different. The feel of her slick cream enveloping him was exquisite and made him feel even closer to her in a way he had barely even dreamed was possible. He remained inside her, refusing to part with her while they kissed deeply. She was a part of him and he enjoyed the tingling sensation in his toes and fingers. The kisses got him ready for the next round and this time he was in for a surprise.

  Virgilia clung to him in total abandon, her body already reaching for him again as they kissed. The fact that he was still inside her made her feel all the more hungry for him. “Cass, I never knew it could be like this.”

  “Neither did I.” He kissed her neck. “It’s like we were made for each other. Making love to you is like coming home.”

  Virgilia let her fingers caress his back and she could feel his hard muscles flex and tense.

  “Your body is so...hard.”

  Cass chuckled. “You keep gripping me like that and it’s going to get a lot harder.”

  In her sweetest voice she said, “You mean, like this?” And with that she clenched the muscles of her vagina and Cass inhaled sharply.

  “Oh, woman, you are bold, sexy, smart, and beautiful…my Lila. Just to hear you say my name makes me want to cum.”

  She did it again and Cass muttered a curse.

  “Jesus! You are asking for it.”

  “You catch on quickly, Mr. Baxter.”

  With that, his hips started moving slowly. He closed his eyes and let every inch of his dick savor her. She was so deliciously tight. He opened his eyes and looked at her. Her long legs were wrapped tightly around his hips. Virgilia’s dark pubic hair was a beautiful contrast against his dark blond. Her stomach was soft and plump as he bent over to kiss her smooth skin. Breasts, deliciously abundant with proud dark nipples ripe for picking, tempted him beyond bearing. Her neck, her full lips…she was a feast to behold and he felt so humbled by their lovemaking.

  How did he get so lucky to find her when he wasn’t even looking?

  She reached up and touched his face.

  “I’m so lucky I found you,” he said against her neck. “Say you’re mine, Lila. I need to hear it.”

  “Cass, I’m yours.”

  That admission invigorated his thrusts and caused her hips to reach for more of him. Virgilia said it again and sealed it with a kiss.

  “Now, enjoy the ride, my love.” He sat back and held both of her hips, feeling how deep he truly was. “I suggest you hold on to something,” he said gruffly.

  The minute she complied, Virgilia relished a delicious shock through her body. The friction of Cass’ thrusts set off another erogenous bomb.

  Cass just let his body go and enjoyed the ride himself, his thrusts becoming more frenzied. His hips slammed against her vagina over and over until his body shook. Cass gave a primal grunt, feeling his cum explode.

  Virgilia enjoyed the stream of heat melt inside her as she lay there spent and happy. Cass’ body was slick with sweat as they smiled at each other. He lay beside her on the couch, cradling her body to his, both soon falling asleep.

  ***

  Virgilia woke up to a grumbling noise coming from her stomach. Not long after, she heard another one coming from behind her. She fumbled in the dark for the clock on the side table. It was almost eight in the evening. Her body was spent, but energized. She smiled down at her sleeping Cass. She gave him a gentle kiss and walked to her bedroom. Donning an oversized shirt, she went to the kitchen. After the lovemaking session they’d had, she craved something to feed body and soul.

  She got out some bacon, eggs, flour, milk, seasoning spices and proceeded to prepare a feast. Virgilia loved to cook and rarely went out. She’d watched her mother as a child and how she would experiment with recipes she found in magazines until she got them just right.

  Her father had abruptly moved out a year ago, figuring he’d done his duty and needed to live his own life. The house had always belonged to her mother and when she turned eighteen, it legally became hers, along with a small inheritance, which she’d barely touched. Her mother had vision and knew that owning a house meant a lot more than a piece of paper. It meant she had something to pass along. She scrimped, saved, did without and paid the house off quicker than anticipated, much to the bank’s shock. She never liked being beholden and taught her little girl that same lesson.

  She heard Cass stir and call for her. “I’m in the kitchen,” Virgilia yelled.

  He walked into the kitchen gorgeously stark naked and she giggled. Her Cass had the body of a god and she looked forward to worshiping it as often as he wanted her. The thought of what they had together possibly being finite was a bit too real for her. She turned away quickly and attended to the stove. As if reading her uncertainty, he came up behind her and gently lifted her shirt, caressing her bare stomach.

  “Something smells good,” he mumbled, pressing himself against her back. He had one hand between her legs, playing with her thick hair and labia lips, and the other caressing her stomach.

  “After what you did to me, I got hungry.”

  Cass laughed. “Oh, really? And what did I do to you?”

  “You made me feel—” She stopped. What she was about to say would change everything and she became unsure.

  “Don’t,” he said. “Don’t hide from me, Lila. I want to know. Please.”

  “Wanted,” she said in a small voice, feeling tears burn at the back of her eyes.

  “You are. So very wanted and needed by me.”

  Virgilia could feel his dick press against her bottom and she smiled and moaned.

  She turned off the stove, turned in his arms and gave him a long, deep kiss.

  “I think we’d better eat something and get our strength back,” Cass growled.

  “We’re definitely going to need it,” Virgilia agreed.

  “Whatever you’re cooking really looks good. Let me go put on my shorts and I’ll be back.” He got dressed and went into the back. Finding what he was sure was her bedroom, he dropped his clothes in a chair and returned to the kitchen.

  She moved everything onto the little table and they sat. They ate in silence, practically inhaling the food.

  “I had no idea how hungry I was. My God, this is amazing, Lila. The waffles are perfect, this egg, bacon, potato concoction is one of the best things I’ve ever tasted.”

  “Thanks. My mother always wanted to open a restaurant. She talked a lot about that before she died.”

  He swallowed and looked at her. “What happened?”

  Virgilia put down her fork. “She was coming home one day when she started coughing. She said she couldn’t breathe and they took her to the hospital. A blood clot found its way to her lungs and she died suddenly. I was eight.”

  “Oh, baby, I’m sorry. I can only imagine what it was like. I know you told me your dad took care of you.”

  She chuckled. “I think care is a relative term. He was an adult presence when I needed it. I figured out a long time ago I was on my own and if I wanted something, I was going to have to earn it. He did what he thought he needed to do and about a year ago, he just left.”

  “Just like that? What about the house, the mortgage? You’re going to school and paying for all of that must be tough.”

  “My mother already paid for the house. I don’t know how she did it, but this house was fully hers and now it’s mine.”

  Cass beamed with pride. His darling Lila...she was amazing. She was smart, tough, but so soft and soulful. H
is father came from humble beginnings himself and had grown his company slowly. He’d taught Cass the value of a dollar and hard work in a time when people were living for the moment. He always told Cass that life was a marathon, not a sprint and that you had to be in it for the long haul. Julian Baxter was a smart man who made sure his kids earned what they had.

  “So, you said you were going to show me your drawings.”

  “You remembered.”

  He held her hand up to his lips and kissed her knuckles. “I told you I want to know everything about you, Lila, and I meant it.”

  She gave him a quick kiss and headed for her room to get her drawing book. Cass continued to savor every bite of his food, piling his plate with more right before she came out.

  She sat down and opened her portfolio to him. He slowly turned the pages and gave a low whistle.

  “These are excellent. I’ve seen some of the work from guys who designed my father’s business buildings and these renderings are right up there with theirs.” He kept turning and found one of a house. It was two stories with a specially slanted roof and an opening for sunlight.

  “This one is my favorite,” Virgilia said “That’s my new house. I wanted it to be big, but not like a manor. It’s got to have warmth and character and the sun roof would be more like a pyramid which lets the light it from all sides...”

  He listened to her as she spoke about this house with such excitement and hope. He made up his mind to help her dreams come true. He didn’t know when, but his Lila would have the house of her dreams built to her specifications.

  ***

  They ate and talked more about her dreams of being an architect. Cass envied her choices. While he loved his father’s business, he was always left with the fact that he really didn’t know how to do much else. He was over halfway through his chemistry degree and was minoring in business, but even as a child, he didn’t realize he could do something else.
