When she pulls her mouth away, the first thing she says to me is, “So you’re staying?”
“Maybe, but if I do, what does it mean for us?” I ask her.
“What do you want it to mean?”
“Quinn, you know I like you, and I get that you’ve been through some shit, so I understand why your heart is guarded, but I want you to realize you don’t have to guard it with me. I’m not going to hurt you…ever.”
“I want to believe you. That’s why I’m here, and I want you to stay longer. I don’t know what the future holds, hell…no one does, but what I do know is, if I keep guarding myself and living like I have, then I might push away the best thing that’s ever happened to me. I’m sorry, I just feel like my brain is all over the place.”
“It’s all right, just be honest with me.”
She smiles at me and says, “I’m scared if you stay, but… I’m even more scared if you go.”
“Then I’ll stay, and we’ll just spend the weekend together, okay?” I ask her, and she nods, agreeing. “Good, will you hand me my phone, please?”
She gives it to me and walks off to the bathroom as I email my assistant, Suzy, asking her to book me a later flight.
“So, you’re taking me to the Nuggets game?” I ask her as she uses the restroom.
“I am—courtside seats too.”
“Wow, how did you score those?”
“My boss owed me for working on a deal over the weekend.”
“I’ll be sure to send a thank you myself. You hungry?” I ask her as she struts back into the bedroom, stark naked.
“I could eat.”
“No, fuck that. I’m not taking your sexy ass out. I’m gonna make you my sex slave.”
“A hungry sex slave is not a happy sex slave.”
“Okay, true. So is there anywhere around here to eat?”
“Yeah, there are a few good places, but I only have sweats to wear and you…well, you have that suit.”
“I love your sweats. Let’s go. Time is gonna fly by.” I smack her ass, and she scurries to get dressed. When she is finished and looks back at me wearing a thin long-sleeved t-shirt and a red pair of sweatpants, I don’t think I’ve ever seen her look more beautiful.
After breakfast, we stopped back by Quinn’s so she could shower and change. I didn’t think she needed to, but I get that she wanted to. Sitting on her couch, I love her place—it’s so perfectly her. I notice a stack of paperwork that must be for her work, and I ask her, “So what is it that you actually do for a living?”
“I manage people’s money. We invest in all sorts of things, from the safest of the safe to the riskiest investments. Do you have your money with a firm?” she asks me.
“No, I have it in the bank, with FDIC insurance covering it.”
“You should look into your options to even make a little return on what you have sitting there. I mean, I won’t do it, not after my last experience, but I can refer you to some good companies.”
“What happened, like for real?” I ask her, really wanting to know how things went so wrong with her ex.
“The story is so complicated; I’m not even sure where to start.”
“The beginning.”
“Uhhh, God, this is so weird to be telling to you. Um, I met him out one night, having a drink with co-workers. At the end of the night, we hooked up. I left my card on the hotel nightstand, and he contacted me for business purposes. When he came in, I realized who he was and long story short, I signed him to my company. From there it was a whirlwind of a romance, until one day, he was done with me.”
“So why did it end? Why was he done with you? He’d have to be crazy in my book to end things.”
“He just broke it off, out of the blue, for really no good reason that I could see. It made me feel like there was something wrong with me.” Tears fill her eyes, the pain of going back there evident and I don’t want to see her upset. “I should’ve known meeting him at a bar that it wouldn’t be anything long-term, but I fell for him…like I always do.” Pulling her into my arms, I hold her close. “Well, I’m happy it didn’t work out because it gave us a chance.” She tenses in my hold, and I can tell that I’m pushing things, so I drop it.
She doesn’t say another word, and I fear that in the back of her mind, she thinks I will end up feeling the same way. That I’ll hurt her like her ex did…but I wouldn’t. Because for me, there’s nothing that could make me want to leave her in the first place…ever.
Chapter 25
Quinn
“Do you ever wish you’d stuck with basketball?” I ask Merritt as we sit on the side of the court before the game begins. The players are all practicing shooting and doing drills.
“Now that’s a loaded question.”
“Meaning?”
“Have you ever dreamt of doing something, but knew deep down it was too much of a long shot?”
“I’ll have to think about that one.”
Then he says, “Well, for me, that was basketball. It was my life-long dream. I had scouts visiting me in high school, colleges were lined up, and I was ready to take the leap. Duke had offered me a full ride. But at the end of the day, I had a choice to make, and my father is very persuasive. He made it hard for me to say no to him.”
“But you wanted to play basketball more, right?”
“I did, but he offered me more money than I was likely to get in the NBA, and I didn’t have the risk of getting a career-ending injury. He also promised me the company when he retires.”
“But that wasn’t your dream?”
“No, it wasn’t. But, I’ve adapted and grown to love my work.”
“Merritt, that’s like marrying the wrong person because your parents want you to. When you know, it’s wrong. How could you be truly happy?”
“Now, now, Dr. Phil, let’s not get carried away—no one’s getting married.”
He tosses his arm over my shoulder, and I lean into him, hating how terrible of a person his father seems to be. What kind of parent would take away their child’s hopes and dreams for their own benefit?
“You want another beer?” he asks me as the beer vendor walks by.
“Sure.”
He orders us two more, and the game begins. I love how into everything he is. Yelling and screaming, able to call fouls and plays like a coach would. All the while his hand is bracing my thigh, squeezing tighter and tighter, making my pussy wet and my body so horny.
It’s just too bad that he’s not one of the players, ‘cause he should be. I can see the pure love for the game that lives inside of him. No matter what his dad does or what career he chose, nothing will ever take that away.
“You owe me a hundred bucks,” he tells me as we leave the Nuggets game.
“You know…I blame Ari for that; he’s the one who makes us always bet.”
“You can blame Jesus for all I care, but you shook on it, so you still owe me.”
“Can I pay it off in sexual favors?”
“What does one get for a hundred dollars these days?”
“I don’t know; we can probably ask that girl.” And I point to a slutty looking woman on the corner of the street that we can see through the windows as we ride the escalator down. She looks like she’s out working.
Both of us laugh as we emerge into the chilly winter night. Walking to my car, I can’t seem to get there fast enough, and Merritt is right along with me, holding my hand tightly. “Fuck it’s cold.”
“Yeah, it is. You’d love Texas. Right now, it’s mid sixties at night.”
“God, I’d love to feel that.”
“Come visit me next weekend?”
“No, I couldn’t.”
“Sure you could.”
His offer, as appealing as it is, should be easy to accept. We have fun together, and it seems I’m the happiest when I’m with him. But it also makes me worry about things; I don’t want us to jump too fast, too soon.
Starting the engine to my Jeep, I turn on both of
our seat warmers, and he asks me, “So are you coming?”
“Let me look and see when flights are, and then I’ll decide.”
“What’s it matter? Leave Friday and return Sunday. I’ll even pay for it,” he’s pushing me and the offer, as sweet as it is, makes me worry it’ll make him eventually resent me. It happened with my ex. He showered me with gifts, so many of them I couldn’t see straight. In the end, he used it against me, said I was only with him for his money, which is the farthest thing from the truth.
“What’s wrong?” he asks me.
“Nothing.”
“Don’t lie. You can tell me anything; you know that, right?”
“I know I can.”
Walking inside my place, his hand is around mine, and he’s dropped the subject of me going to see him…for now. I flip on a few lights, and he says to me, “You really have a sick view.”
“Thanks, I love my place.”
While he observes the sights of downtown Denver, I pour us each a drink and then strip naked, doing what Merritt and I do best.
Walking up to him, I can see his reflection in the glass. He’s lost in his own thoughts, and as I stand next to him, he slowly turns his head, a soft growl escaping from his throat.
“Ohhh, you are so bad.”
“You make me want to be bad,” I tell him and he finishes his drink in one gulp and then lifts me into his arms and cradles my body against his as he storms into my room, kicking the door all the way open and tossing me on the bed. I laugh falling against the soft fabric and watch him unbutton his tight, navy blue dress shirt. Then he takes his belt off and sets it on the bed, my heart beating faster, wondering if he’s gonna use it to spank me.
Taking his pants off, his mouthwatering, huge cock makes me so wet, and he asks me, “Where’s the sash?”
I point to my nightstand drawer. He pulls it out, the soft material resting comfortably in the palm of his hand. “How convenient.” Then he scoots my body up on the bed and stretches my arms high above me.
Taking the sash, he knots it around one of the slats in my headboard and then secures my wrist to the other end of it. My eyes move from my hand to his eyes and he asks me, “Is this okay?” I nod quickly, never having been tied up before, but never wanting it more than I do with him right now.
With my other hand fastened in place with the belt, he then takes me by the hips and pulls me as far down the bed as he can. My upper extremities are stretched to the max; I can’t move a single muscle. Everything inside of me is on overdrive. My heart is beating at Mach speed. And he says to me, “If you come visit me, I’ll tie you to my bed for the entire weekend,” and I have to ask, “What are you going to do to me now?”
“What do you want?”
“I want you to fuck me and come hard.”
He takes his hand and begins to rub it over my clit. I arch off the bed from the mere touch of his fingers on me, and he says, “Like this?”
“That’s good, but I really want your cock.”
He begins to jerk himself, and I lick my lips.
“You want to suck me?”
“Please.” He hovers over me, holding on to the headboard and I open wide so he can stick himself all the way into my mouth. He pumps in and out of me, my hands are tied so I can’t move and my lips stretched so wide that I can’t say a word. Our eyes stay connected, the way they always do. “God, I love your mouth,” he tells me and grunts, moving even faster.
My pussy is tingling, ready and willing to be played with. But this isn’t about me, it’s about him. As he fucks my mouth, I wait for his cum, but it doesn’t happen.
Then he stops and slowly removes himself from me. Kneeling between my legs, I spread them wide as he connects our bodies. My body tenses from the fullness; his dick is so hard as he shoves into me.
Holding his body up on either side of me with his fists balled, he asks me, “Why do you like it slow?”
“‘Cause I don’t want it to end, so the slower we go, the longer it can last.”
“That’s not true.”
“What do you mean?” I ask him, and he pulls me towards him by the hips, pushing into me as deep as he can. I gasp out loud, a sensation unlike any other runs through me as his cock grinds so far into me.
“Let me show you. I can make you come again and again,” he promises.
A little hesitant, as I’ve never had a man make me come more than once, I nod, and he begins to move. His hands have a strong hold on my body and every time he slams into me, I cry out in pleasure. My tits bounce from the force of him slamming into me, hitting such a sensitive spot inside me, and as he picks up speed, I can’t control myself, letting go and coming hard.
He controls my body, still holding on to me as he robs me of my first orgasm. I bow off the bed in his arms, fighting against the restraints, searching for some friction. However, I can’t find any, and now my pussy is so sensitive, I feel like I could lose it, but he keeps moving.
“Stop,” I tell him, just needing a minute and he shakes his head, barreling faster. “Give in to it, Quinn, let go again.”
Digging my heels into the mattress, I lose all focus on reality as another blissful orgasm runs through me. I scream loudly, shaking under his control and this time I figure he has to stop…but that’s not what he does.
His eyes are carnal, his grunts are the loudest I’ve ever heard, and I look at him bewildered, trying to understand what he’s doing to my body. Then he says to me, “It’s okay, baby…let go again.”
Closing my eyes, I trust in him. Zoning in on the noises in the room…my and Merritt’s moans along with the sound of his balls slapping my ass…pushes me close and as I feel a blast of warm cum fill me, it tips me over, and another orgasm takes over my body. He groans, digging his fingers into my sides.
I don’t fight it or prepare for what is next. I give completely over to the orgasm, and as he pounds me, he comes again, and it won’t be long, soon I will too. Looking into his clear eyes, he’s got one hell of a smirk on his face, and I say to him, “Why didn’t you do that in Steamboat?”
“Because you said you liked it slow.”
He unties my hands, and I rub my wrists. “I thought I did. But had you done that, I might’ve change my mind about ending things after a week.”
“Are you saying you’d stay with me for my cock?”
“Maybe,” I smirk, and he begins to tickle me.
“You’re so bad. Does that mean I can book your flight?”
I thrash from side to side, fighting him to stop, but he doesn’t. The truth is, I don’t want him to…I never want him to stop. “Answer me,” he orders and the words roll off my tongue as if they aren’t my own, “Okay, I’ll come.”
Chapter 26
Merritt
Lying in bed next to Quinn, she is peacefully asleep. It is barely light out, and I hope I don’t wake her, but my phone has been going off nonstop. My dad seems to be on a new level of craziness, now that I decided to stay in Denver for a few extra days. He doesn’t understand why and for some reason needs to know. He just keeps saying that we have so much work to do and he needs me back at the office.
As I respond to his last text, I want to tell him to go fuck himself…but I don’t. I’ll be back later on tonight; there’s nothing that can’t wait until then.
He doesn’t respond and looking at Quinn, she is so beautiful. An email comes through from Suzy distracting me from watching her. It contains Quinn’s flight info for Friday, and I couldn’t be happier that she agreed to come and visit me. I respond to her and say thank you, then I forward it to Quinn. I can’t wait to have her in my bed. I’ll make true to my promise and tie her there all weekend if she wants.
Just as the sun begins to pop up over the horizon, I set my phone down, wanting to make the most of my last day with Quinn. Holding her body tightly, kissing the soft skin of her neck, she wakes slowly with a grin on her face, and when she looks at me like that, my heart melts.
“You sleep
okay?” I ask her.
“Yeah, the best.”
“Good, baby,” I tell her and hold her body close to mine. She holds me back, her hands atop mine as we watch the sun crest the morning sky.
“Is this what you get to wake up to every day?”
Rolling over in my arms, she says to me, “It is.” and she kisses me. Holding on to the back of her head, I kiss her back. “I don’t want you to go,” she tells me. Hearing her say the words, lets me know that we are headed down the right path, it’s just gonna take baby steps to get there.
“I don’t want to leave.”
“Skip work next week and stay here with me.”
“Ha! I wish I could, beautiful, but my dad is already throwing a tantrum with me staying here longer.”
“Screw your dad. He sounds like a real asshole, you know that?”
“Oh, he is, but he’s the only father I got, and he holds the key to my future.”
“You should call into work, fly home with me, and let me tie you to my bed all week. I’d make you come so many times, you’d never want to leave.”
“If I miss work Monday, I’ll get fired. Remember the bribe I took so we could go to the Nuggets game? I still have work to do, and the client is coming tomorrow morning.”
“I guess neither of us can take the time off of work, so we’re just going to have to make the most out of the day.”
“That we are. What do you want to do?”
“Oh, that’s up to you. This is your city.”
She rolls me onto my back and lays her body along mine. “Let’s stay in and fuck.”
“Okay,” I agree, knowing that’s all I really want to do anyway. We get lost kissing one another, then a knock on her door stops us. She looks at me wide-eyed, and I have no clue what to do.
“Are you expecting someone?” I ask her, and she scurries to get dressed.
