“You do?”
“I worked it out and I can’t believe you presumed that I’d been with someone else while I’ve been with you. That’s what I can’t get over. Please make me understand.”
I tucked her head beneath my chin and held her tight, fighting back my own tears.
“Viv wanted to have a baby. We tried for a while and nothing happened, so she arranged to have these tests done. A few days later I discovered she’d been having an affair. Not just one, but a few. I didn’t sleep with her from then on. When we got the results, she told me that I was the problem. I was an idiot and believed her. So all this time, I thought I would never be able to have a….”
I couldn’t finish. She held me tight and lifted her face to me then kissed my tears away.
“Lily, I’ll spend the rest of my life making it up to you, but please forgive me for how I reacted before. When you first said you were pregnant, all I could think about was that it wasn’t mine. I was hurt, so I lashed out at you. It took Lucien talking to me, for me to realize just how much of a bastard I was and to open my eyes to what Viv did.”
She kissed my eyes. She kissed my nose. She kissed my lips. “You hurt me Michael. I thought my heart was breaking, but I love you and knowing what you thought, explains why you reacted the way you did. You where upset, I can understand that, but how could you think I would be with someone else, when I have you? You’re all that I want and need.”
“Yeah, I thought that. I guess my hang up goes deep. My appointment yesterday wasn’t a meeting, it was at a jewelers. I planned on asking you to marry me last night, until I screwed everything up.”
“You were?” She was stunned. “Do you still want to ask me?” She smiled at me then my grin started to spread.
I climbed off the bed then knelt on one knee. She moved to sit in front of me. “Lily, I’m the biggest idiot going, but no one will ever love you as much as I do. I promise to never be such a jerk again and to never stop loving you and our children. You and our family will always come first. Will you marry me?”
She cried. “I love you, Michael, so much. Yes, I’ll marry you.” She threw her arms around my neck and the momentum sent us both tumbling to the floor.
Chapter 61
~~ LILY ~~
I was lying on the floor in Michael’s arms and I never wanted to leave them. I understood why he’d reacted the way he did. It still hurt, but not as much and I loved him too much to let it stay between us. I just held on to him.
We laughed and I looked into his eyes and became serious. “Michael, I love you. You’re the only one that I want. I can understand your hang-up because of what Viv did to you, but I can’t live with you mistrusting me because of her.”
“Lily, last night when I thought I’d really lost you and I realized just what I’d done, it hit me that I do trust you, and I don’t need to keep remembering what Viv did, because I now have the chance for new memories and I want them, with you.”
“You’ve turned me to mush,” I said then sealed my mouth to Michael’s. He opened his mouth and sucked my tongue into his. I wrapped my arms around his neck and held on. He really was my world.
His hands were on my t-shirt. He pulled it over my head. “Michael, we can’t. Not here.”
“Lucien has taken Mom out for breakfast.” He grinned.
I quickly stood and removed my leggings then climbed onto the bed.
“Fuck.” Michael jumped up from the floor, threw his clothes off and crawled onto the huge bed behind me. I was on all fours with my legs spread so he could see straight between my thighs.
He held my legs apart and licked between, then shoved his tongue into my sex. I moaned.
“Your * is soaked.” He put his mouth back on me. “Your clit is swollen.” He sucked it into his mouth. “Put your face on the bed and keep your ass in the air.” I did as I was told. He spread my legs wider and used his finger. He rubbed between my * lips and spread my juices up between my buttocks.
I couldn’t stay still and writhed under the onslaught of his fingers and mouth. My breasts rubbed against the bed while Michael had his mouth between my thighs. I felt like I was in sensory overload.
I cried out as I came hard with Michael’s tongue inside me and his fingers rubbing my clit. He wasn’t letting up and I could feel myself heading towards another climax when he moved from behind me and rolled me onto my back.
We were both breathing heavily. My * was so wet and Michael’s cock was huge and leaking like crazy with his arousal.
“I want you to taste yourself on me.” He slammed his mouth down to mine in the most erotic kiss of my life, which went on and on, while he rubbed his penis against my hip.
