I am let out of the holding cell and taken to a waiting area to get my clothes and property back. Outside of the jail, I see my mom’s car. The passenger door opens, and a little ball of fury is running for me. I catch her in my arms.
Fuck it. I lower my head and put my lips on hers. Her soft lips respond to my hard ones. I coax her mouth open with my tongue. I devour her mouth. My cock is hard, and I want her. Now. She wraps her arms around my neck and sinks into me. Fuck, this is amazing.
“Happy birthday, peaches,” I say when I let her up for air.
“Thank you. I was so worried about you, Samson. I even called hospitals. I don’t know why I didn’t think to call jails.” She looks like she wants to say more, but a quick look at my mother quells whatever she was about to say.
“You couldn’t have known. Let’s go home,” I say, taking her hand and leading her back to my mom’s car.
“You look good with a bead,” she says, scratching her fingernails in the five-day-old growth.
“Hello, son,” my mom says.
“Mama. Thanks for picking me up, and thanks for bringing me my girl,” I tell her, pulling her into a one-armed hug. I’m not letting go of my girl for anything.
“We should go to the garage. I got your car out of impound to be repaired.”
“Thanks,”
“You drive. I’ll sit in the back.”
“Oh, no, Fiona. I couldn’t take the front.”
“You can and you will, Riley. It’s no big deal.” I watch my mother climb into the backseat. I help Riley into the car and get behind the wheel. The drive to the garage is quick, and Riley and I are in my car and back on the road in minutes.
“What were you going to say back there?” I ask, curious as hell.
“What?” she asks, looking down at her lap.
“When you first saw me, you were going to say something. What was it?”
“Oh, I was just going to tell you something important, but I decided to wait until we are alone.”
“We’re alone now.”
“Take me home first,” she says. Home. Fuck, I love that she thinks of my place as her home. It’s a damn miracle I get us here in one piece without breaking the law too severely. I screech into my parking space and am out of the car in seconds. After helping her out, I back her up to the car and kiss her again. My cock is grinding against her belly, but when she moans, I about lose my damn mind.
“Let’s go,” I demand gruffly. I take her hand and all but drag her into the elevator. Inside of it, I push her against the wall and kiss her more. A few hits, and it’s like she’s a fucking drug.
“Samson, please,” she says. I didn’t realize the elevator door had opened. Picking her up, I carry her too my bedroom.
“You’ve been sleeping in here?”
“Yes. I missed you,” she says quietly when I set her on her feet.
“I love you,” I tell her. She looks up at me.
“I love you, too.”
“I knew I loved you when I saw your picture in that catalog. I didn’t know you, but I knew I had to have you. I would have paid every dime I had to have you. Why’d you set yourself so low?”
“So I’d never be alone again. I never dreamed you’d be the man to buy me. To own me.”
“Peaches, I may have paid for you, but I don’t own you. Not yet. When I get this cock in that little virgin cunt, that’s when I’ll own you. That’s when you’ll never want to leave.”
“I don’t want to leave now. I fell in love with you that very night. When you held me while I sobbed like a baby over the loss of my parents, logically, I know alcoholism is a disease, but the way that all went down, I don’t think I can be alone again. The five days you were gone scared me to death, but more than that, I don’t want to be without you. Why did you buy me?” I am surprised that either of us never brought up our reasons for using Virginal Acquisitions after everything we’ve talked about and shared.
“My brother.”
“Your brother?”
“Do you remember him?”
“How could I forget? He’s the exact opposite of you,” she says.
“Well, I am sure you don’t want to hear this, but ever since I was a teenager, he’s taken my girlfriends from me. Before I had a chance to kiss them, he swooped in and fucked them, despite being two years younger than I am.”
“What? Who could do that to their brother?”
“Caleb can, so you can imagine why I was so upset you were alone with him.”
