“I heard that you dick. I’m not your fucking lap dog you can order to sic on people,” Creed says to him who’s clearly sitting next to him listening in on the conversation.

“I won’t be seeing them again anytime soon. So no. I got it handled.”

“Echo,” a sweet angelic voice comes through the line. “I’m sorry.” I almost let my body drop at those words and think of the mess I created. Almost.

“Thanks, El.” I hang up my cell and wish I found a love like Creed and El have. That my love didn’t run off with my brother the first chance she fucking got.

Pulling up at the closest bar, I get out running my fingers through my hair and decide to drink myself to sleep. Let’s face it, it’s probably my best option today.

Fuck Christmas! What a shit-show that was.

Echo

One Year Ago…

Selena’s complaining, again. Why? I can’t even remember for the life of me. I should probably try to remember. I mean I care, don’t I? Her face is scrunched up in anger, she’s clearly pissed at something I’ve done. I scratch my head in confusion. Fuck! What did I do?

“You just don’t care anymore. Do you? Is that it?”

I step closer to her. Her pulse is fast as I touch her wrist, I can feel it steadily beating on my fingers. I run my fingers back and forth until she starts to calm, but her eyebrows are still scrunched.

“I care. You know I care.” Stepping up close to Selena, I linger so close to her lips, knowing I’m going to claim her and make them mine as I’ve done over the last five years. Calming her is one of my many talents, among other things which I plan to do very soon.

“Don’t do it.” She looks at my lips then back to me.

“Do what?” I ask breathing her in.

“I’m trying to have a serious conversation here, Echo. Don’t ruin it.”

“Ruin it?” I mutter looking at her lips then back to her eyes—her very green eyes. “Only improve it, baby.” Before I let her utter another word, I close the distance which is separating us and kiss her, my lips touch hers, and within seconds her body relaxes fully. I knew it would make her relax just as I know her. My hands leave her wrists and envelop her body lifting her as she wraps her legs around my waist.

“We can’t,” she states as I enter the bedroom, the one we share together. I don’t listen to her excuses as I lay her down and start kissing her neck. Pulling open her dress, I kiss my favorite parts of her. It’s very fucking hard to decide when you love someone like I love Selena—with all that I am.

“Tell me to stop.”

She opens her mouth but before she can say another word my mouth is on her clit, and in reaction, her legs spread wider as I keep her panties pushed to the side. I make her squirm and taste what I always love to taste. Her hands find my blond hair that seriously needs a cut as she roams her hands through it, pulling it slightly then just before she comes she pulls me to her and slams her own lips to mine. I kick my jeans off then reaching between us I slide in—it’s easy, just like breathing. Something we’ve done multiple times and something I plan on doing for the rest of my life with her.

She is it.

I knew it from the moment I met her.

Selena moans loudly, her heels digging into my ass while I hold her hands above her head. She keeps her eyes closed tightly as she starts screaming my name from her lips.

The sound is like ecstasy, and I don’t stop. Not when I feel her loosen her grip, not even when she starts to come a second time. Her hands are now in her hair pulling at it trying to control her onslaught of emotions hitting her like a fire truck. As her pussy starts to squeeze around my cock for the second time I come, laying on her chest as we both try to catch our breaths.

Looking up at her, she smiles and shakes her head.

“You just can’t help yourself, can you?”

I almost laugh. Almost.

“You’re mine, are you not?” Rolling off her and to my side, I watch Selena pull her dress up over her chest and sit up, she looks back at me her green eyes haunted with something I can’t make out.

“We need to talk, Echo.”

Touching her back I tickle my fingers up and down as I wait for her to speak.

“Echo…” She doesn’t have a chance to finish as my cell starts ringing and Darby’s name flashes up. Holding up a finger to her, I listen as he asks me to come in immediately. Standing, I lean down to kiss her, but she shakes her head at me.
