Hardheaded Hubby, page 8
“Sawyer,” she panted over and over. He would’ve chanted her name too if he had the ability to speak.
When she grabbed his ass and forced him into her harder than before, he found his voice. “Fuck, Sophie. You’re gonna make me come.” He curled his toes and barely refrained from biting her neck where his teeth grazed, finding any strength to keep the inevitable from happening right now, yet still he kept plowing into her.
She gasped, and he felt her pussy pulse. She was close. Thank god, she was close. He wasn’t sure if he would last much longer.
“Don’t stop. I’m gonna— ” Sophie screamed as she tumbled over, dragging him with her. He roared out his release, not stopping his movements as he came inside her.
It was several seconds before either of them caught their breath. He held her to him as they both breathed hard, sweat slicking their bodies. They’d need to shower soon, but he knew what had happened was just round one of the evening. An important round, but one of many.
“I love you, Sophie, so much.” He wanted her to know and never forget, never question.
She stroked his back, lazily. “I love you, too. I’m sorry for putting you through this week and making you sleep on the couch last night, but I’m even sorrier for not talking to you about this.”
He looked at her. “This is my fault.” When she opened her mouth, he kissed her to stop her protest. Once he looked in her eyes again, he said, “How about no more apologies. Let’s move forward and chalk it up to a learning experience.”
She smiled and damn if his dick didn’t twitch, trying to come back to life already. “I like that idea.”
“Good.” He wrinkled his nose playfully at her. “Though, this week wasn’t all bad.” The little show she’d put on with Hannah had been fucking hot.
“Mmm. I might need to hold out on you from time-to-time. Just for fun.”
“Baby, you can have fun with me anytime you want.”
She rolled them over and got on top of him, grinding herself on his shrinking shaft. He clutched her hips, encouraging her. “I’m glad you think so.” She smirked right before jumping off the bed and leaving his pulsing dick. She turned to face him in all her naked glory. “Because I plan on having some fun tonight. By morning, you’ll be fucked raw but begging for more.”
“Oh, thank you Jesus.” He jumped up and followed her into the bathroom.
Maybe he would take his mom’s offer to keep Alexander once a week. The boy needed to spend some time with Gam-Gam anyway.
Epilogue
Morgan watched Cooper as he played pool with the guys. Well, the rest of them. Sawyer had practically raced out of the building with his sexily dressed wife. She couldn’t blame the man. It had been the plan, after all. Sophie was in for a night that was months in the making, and Morgan couldn’t be happier.
For her friend.
The night she’d called to ask if she was going to be at the bar for the game, Morgan knew something was wrong. She could tout her prowess as an eagle-eyed attorney as the reason. Lord knew she had to sniff out the truth on a daily basis at the office, but it wasn’t because of professional reasons why she realized Sophie was having problems with Sawyer.
Morgan was in the middle of her own relationship crisis.
Oh, their sex life was good. It was insanely hot, in fact. From nights spent in the throes of passion to afternoon quickies and lazy Sunday morning loving, they excelled in the art of physical expression.
It was all the other stuff that suffered.
Quality time together with their clothes on.
Conversation.
Communication. The irony wasn’t lost on her. She was paid ridiculous sums of money to talk for hours on end, but she couldn’t manage talking to Cooper for any length of time without them touching each other.
She’d feel like the biggest bitch if she complained about that. If anything, Sophie’s recent issue showed her how lucky Morgan was in that regard.
But she missed all of those other relationship-type things.
Morgan worked all of the time.
So did Cooper.
They were both upcoming professionals in their career fields.
They were both driven.
She had no doubt that they loved each other, but it almost felt as if their sex life had become a bandage of sorts. After working all day, hardly talking, they’d screw like bunnies to make sure they were still grounded. Like they’d lost the ability to connect in other ways.
It was probably time for them to have a talk. The dreaded one that often ended up in doom and gloom for couples. It would have to be a risk she was willing to take because there was a lot they needed to discuss. About them, their relationship, their future.
Don’t get me started on the topic of marriage.
When Brindle had made the comment about buying the cow to Hannah, Morgan wondered if that was exactly what had happened in her own relationship.
She’d become a cow.
“Damn, baby, have I told you how hot you look tonight?” Cooper said as he pointed the cue stick at her, dragging her out of her thoughts. “Can’t wait to get you home,” he said softer as he stepped up to her. He kissed the side of her neck before planting one on her lips.
“Mmm, you think this is hot…wait ’til you see what I have on under it.”
He groaned. “Can I have a hint?”
“Uh-uh. I want your mind to go wild in wonder.”
“Coop, your shot,” Bryson said.
“You’re a devilish woman,” he whispered, biting his lip before turning back to the pool table.
She doubted that.
Devils didn’t have problems talking about personal things. They were notorious for sitting on people’s shoulders constantly whispering in their ears.
And there was something else devils didn’t have.
Utters.
