Promises & Pen Names (The Riley Siblings #1)

9. Blake

Chapter Nine

BLAKE

“ A nd as Apollo stalked toward Leonora, her most intoxicating scent thick in the air, the heady fragrance of her arousal invading his senses... ” I smirk as I kneel on the end of the bed. “ His wolf howled, Mine, the word echoing through his mind, booming through his chest on every beat of his once blackened heart... ”

“Oh my god!” Sid shrieks, her bare feet propelling her toward the pillows away from me. “Stop, Blake!”

I grin, reach down and grab her ankle, then yank her back toward me. “ His cock was like stone, throbbing, pulsing with need, the need to take what was his, claim his mate, fill her with his seed so no man or beast alike could be mistaken as to whom his beautiful Leonora belonged... ”

She covers her face and giggles. “Oh my god, stop!” Sid snorts. “You’re terrible!”

I’ve been quoting lines from my favorite sex scene in book one of Sid’s series since I carried her out of the elevator.

Prior to this, she had no clue I’d even read it let alone memorized parts of it, but the look on her face, the way she was both flattered and embarrassed to no end, God that was so worth the surprise.

Once we established our plan, I felt like this was a good way to keep things light, fun, and normal for us because I didn’t want Sid backing out. I know what her reservations are, why she’s so hesitant to take our relationship to the next level but since I can’t tell her that everything is going to work out fine because I’m in love with her and always have been, this seemed like a good runner up.

And yeah, I was fucking right because as soon as we got inside the room, Sid pealed my shirt off, lost her shoes and the flowy tank top she was wearing before she kissed me breathless. Then she took down her hair, watched me all but kick my Chuck’s across the room and then waited to make sure I took my socks off.

It was kind of strange that she was so focused on that but I could care less at this point because they were coming off anyway, I don’t wear anything on my feet unless I have to, and my reward was Sid crawling onto the bed in nothing but those skin tight leggings and a silk kami.

If that wasn’t hot enough to make my dick punch the zipper of my jeans, getting her naked is going to have him unzipping my fly all by himself.

“ Leonora’s eyes, those deep emerald-green pools flared as Apollo unlaced his trousers... ” I straddle Sid’s legs and unbuckle my belt, my grin so shit eating she can’t help but giggle as she peeks up at me from behind her fingers. “ And when his heavy length sprung free ? — “

“Blake!” Sid squeals. “Oh my god, I can’t believe you!”

“What?” I smirk and pop the button. “I’m just trying to set the mood.”

Fuck, she is so beautiful.

Especially sprawled out on the bed, blushing something fierce while she wiggles underneath me .

“Yeah, ok.” She drops her hands from her face so I can see the eye roll. “I’ve always wanted my novel to be used as foreplay.”

“Oh, come on, Sid. That is by far one of the hottest sex scenes ever written.” I lift a brow and unzip. “Next to the ones in our book, anyway.”

“I had no idea you even read The Alchemist’s Mate and I definitely wouldn’t have expected you to have read it enough to quote it to me before we had sex.” Immediately, Sid goes from pink to a deep shade of red, her eyes widening. “I mean, well, not like I put a lot of thought into, you know, it’s not like I’ve thought about it a lot or whatever.”

Chuckling, I crawl over her and cage her head between my forearms. “No?”

“I mean...” Her pulse flutters against the creamy skin of her throat, her chest rising and falling a little faster. “It’s not like I’ve thought about it to some serious extent or anything...”

“Well, I have.” My lips brush hers, nipping those perfect rose-colored petals. “I’ve thought about it a lot.” I kiss her a little harder then blaze a trail over her jaw to that erratic pulse where I nip her skin too. “I’ve had two years of thinking about all the things I’d like to do to you given the chance. And a week to remember the things we used to do whenever we could.”

“Blake...” Sidney moans as my teeth sink into the hollow of her shoulder.

That is quite possibly the hottest sound I have ever heard.

“How long has it been since someone kissed you?”

Her hand travels up my bare chest, her nails dragging over my nipple before she quickly palms the back of my head while I pepper open mouth kisses against her shoulder, her collarbone, and the tattoo on her chest. “I told you.”

I grin as I drop a hand between us and pull the front of her cami down so I can kiss between her perfect tits. “Not what I’m asking, Shortcake.”

“Then what... mm, Blake...” Sid moans my name again as I slide the straps over her shoulders, slipping the silk down her chest far enough to realize she’s not wearing a bra.

“Fuck,” I groan and lick the swell of her breasts. “No bra, Shortcake?”

“It broke,” she pants as I suck on her nipple through the fabric, “I didn’t... didn’t bring another one...”

My growl is primal and a little unexpected as I bite that sensitive peak. “Tell me, Sid. How long since you’ve been kissed?”

Her back arches slightly as I move to her other breast. “I already?—”

“How long since someone has kissed your pussy?”

“Blake,” she hisses, her nails scraping my scalp. “I don’t... fuck... I don’t even remember.”

Fuck yes.

Sidney is about to get her world turned on its head then because, despite the way it’s going to make my dick hard to the point of pain, I am going to eat the hell out of her pussy, kiss it until she completely forgets anyone else who’s tried to treat her the way she deserves.

“I want you naked, Sid,” I growl before I go up on my knees again. “I want you naked, sweaty, and screaming my name.”

Those crystal blues have darkened to almost a cobalt color, her pupils blown wide, eyes hooded, but when she looks up at me, fuck, the vulnerability on her face guts me.

She pulls her lip between her teeth, chewing the fuck out of it. “I don’t know, Blake.” Sid takes a shaky breath. “I haven’t been totally naked in front of anyone since... since I had Jack and, well, my body... I have a c-section scar, stretch marks...” Her eyes wander from mine and while I love the fact that she’s still comfortable enough to voice her concerns, I fucking hate the fact that she has any. “I don’t look the way I did when you knew me before. Like I told you, I’m still pretty out of shape and I just haven’t really been comfortable with my body...”

I’d put money on Jordan having everything to do with that.

We still haven’t talked about why they divorced, just like we haven’t talked about our shit but I’ve been reading between the lines. All of her negative comments, the horrible self-image she clearly has, that shit isn’t something you’re born with, it’s acquired, and I bet Sid had fifteen years of buying into those lies before they stopped. Only to be thrown back in her face when her asshat ex got engaged to a nutritionist health nut.

And that’s exactly why I’m going to worship this woman’s body the way it deserves, the way she deserves.

“You trust me?” I sit back on her shins, staring down at the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. “Trust me enough to let me see all of you?”

Sid hesitates but only for a second before she nods. “I trust you, Blake. More than anyone.”

My chest swells with pride, with unconditional love. “Then you have to trust me when I say you are so fucking sexy, so perfect and beautiful that if I don’t have you completely naked, I might just die.”

Sid giggles a little, then sighs. “Ok.”

Then it’s game on.

I reach out and hook my fingers in the top of her cami, slowly peeling the silk down her body to reveal the most glorious tits I’ve ever seen, but I don’t stop. No, I keep going until I hit the top of her leggings, adjust my position so I can pull those and her panties down her legs, get her completely naked in one quick move and my god, I’m fucking dead .

Sidney is fucking stunning.

The beautiful tattoo for her kids sits right above full, heavy breasts, the fleshy mounds at least two handfuls each tipped with pale pink, bite size nipples. The flat plane of her stomach is soft and slightly rounded at her hips; white lines around her bellybutton and stretch over her wide, great for holding onto while I fuck her, hips. Her c-section scar is faded but it’s there, the evidence of the fierce mama who carried, nurtured and grew three amazing babies clear and so goddamn sexy I can’t even put it into words. And when my eyes land on her pussy, the totally bare velvet skin between thick, strong, tattooed thighs, my cock hardens to steel.

Goddamnit, this woman is as fucking gorgeous as she was when we were teens.

And still just as insecure for no goddamn reason.

Sid clears her throat, drawing my gaze back up her body, the urge to cover herself obvious. “I warned you.”

“Hardly,” I growl and immediately crawl over her again, using my knees to push her thighs apart. “You need to spell it out for someone like me.” My hand slips into her hair and I tilt her head so she’s looking into my eyes. “I’m seconds away from coming in my pants like a teenager looking at porn for the first time, Sid. You gotta clue a dude in why you’re hiding a body as phenomenal as yours.”

Sidney snorts and rolls her eyes but I don’t let her say whatever shitty comment she has ready. Nope, I kiss the fuck out of her then work my way down her neck, her chest, give her breasts some much needed attention before sliding further down her body.

My lips touch every stretch mark, every tiger stripe she earned from carrying those fantastic kids of hers. I trace a circle around her belly button before I kiss that too, Sid giggling just a little before she inhales sharply when I get closer to her scar. Her scar I kiss and lick until I’m almost level with Sid’s still perfect pussy.

“Blake...”

My eyes flick to hers just as I press a kiss to the top of her slit and when I use my shoulders to widen her legs, to open her up to me completely, she moans when I do it again.

“So goddamn beautiful, Shortcake.” Her pussy is soaked, glistening, the most gorgeous shade of pink, so I run my tongue bottom to top. “So goddamn mine.”

Her hips buck when I do it a third time, Sid’s head pressed back into the mattress, her fists gripping the sheet on either side of her body. And Jesus, when I flatten my tongue against her clit then pull it between my lips and suck, her back arches so hard she’s almost bent in half.

And that fucking drives me wild.

The fact that Sidney is still so responsive to my touch, the way her body is already quivering and shaking with need, that shit does something to me in a deep fucking way.

I eat her pussy like it’s my last fucking meal, lick her cunt until it’s practically gushing. I suck and flick her clit, grip her thighs and throw her knees over my shoulders while I devour Sidney like a man starved.

“Blake!” she cries, her body jerking, her hands flying to my hair. “Oh my god, Blake, Blake, I’m gonna come!”

That was fast, but fuck yeah, she’s going to come.

Sid is going to come so hard on my face that I will erase the last fifteen years from her history so the only one who’s left is me.

And when I dip one finger inside her pussy, barely curl it and suck her clit between my lips, Sidney fucking shatters.

“Blake!” Her back shoots off the bed, her fingers pulling at my hair. Sid’s hips roll in time with my mouth and finger, my glasses I forgot to take off now lost in the sheets somewhere. “Holy shit, Blake! Blake, I’m coming! ”

Hell yes.

Oh, hell yes, my girl is coming and I just keep eating her pussy, fucking her with my finger until Sid collapses back onto the bed with the sexiest fucking moan I have ever heard.

“Jesus.” She laughs, the sound breathy and satisfied. “Jesus fuck, Blake, my god.” Then she giggles as I climb back up her body. “I think you just broke my vagina.”

I smirk, kiss her lips and groan when she licks mine. “You’re welcome.”

Another giggle, another hard kiss. “Can you take your pants off now?”

“Don’t have to ask me twice.” I roll to my back, lift my hips and push my jeans down my thighs, my boxer-briefs going right along with them.

I’m not cocky, even a little insecure at times, but I’m not nearly as shy as Sid.

And the look she’s giving me, the hungry look as Sid’s eyes roam every inch of my naked flesh, fuck that is so hot, and just might make me real fucking cocky.

“You didn’t tell me you had more tattoos.” She grins as she gets up on her knees, reaches out and traces part of the ink that runs hip to knee on my right leg. “Very sexy.”

My dick twitches as her finger gets closer to him, her index following the design from my hip to the muscle on my lower abdomen, up and down my happy trail and across to my other hip. If she’s not careful, I’m going to blow my load all over my stomach before she even touches my hard-on.

Those sky-blue orbs flick to mine, a devious smile on Sid’s gorgeous face. “You’re beautiful, Blake.” Then the little minx barely circles the tip of my dick, before sliding the precum along my length. “And you still have the biggest cock I’ve ever seen.”

My chest is pumping so fucking hard, my cock she’s teasing leaking like a sieve. It’s taking everything in me to keep from moving, to keep myself from flipping Sidney on her back and plowing into her, but I want her to feel comfortable, confident, and I want her to own how fucking sexy she is, so if exploring my body helps with that, so be it.

And I’m kinda partial to Sid’s hands on me, especially when she compliments my almost nine inches like I have a goddamn redwood between my legs. That’s worth the impending embarrassment.

“Blake...” Her thumb drags another bead of precum down the underside of my dick, her small hand closing around the base of my shaft. “Blake, can I...”

My eyes are so far back in my skull I’m practically looking at my own ass, but I manage to choke out a, “Yeah, baby?” As Sid starts stroking me.

But she doesn’t answer with words.

No, my girl just leans down and licks my entire length in one slow, hot drag of her tongue.

“Fuck, Sid,” I hiss. “Sid, baby... as much—” She does it again and my vision goes white. “As much as I want your mouth on me, god I want that... I just...” Now her lips are around the head of my cock and she‘s sucking and… “Fuck, Sid, if you keep it up I’m going to come down your throat.”

With a satisfied hum, Sidney releases my dick with a loud smack. “I’m not against that, Blake.”

“Later,” I grunt before I basically maul her. I roll into her, knock her on her back and have Sid’s legs wrapped around my waist and my cock so fucking close to her pussy I can feel the heat, so quick all she can do is laugh that musical laugh. “I need to be inside you, Shortcake. Need it like I need my next breath.”

Her arms come up around my neck, those crystal blue eyes boring into mine. “Promise I can suck your cock later.”

Not a question but a demand .

And fuck all if that isn’t sexy as hell.

“Promise,” I growl, secretly promising her the goddamn moon as I slide my shaft along her dripping wet slit. “Jesus, Sid, is this for me?”

She blushes but nods as she pulls her lip between her teeth.

“The idea of my cock in your mouth turns you on that much?”

Another nod. “The idea of sucking your dick has always made me really wet.”

The idea of her sucking my dick because it turns her on makes me almost lose my mind. And it’s exactly why I growl like a caged beast, capture her lips in a brutal kiss and snap my hips forward, my cock slamming into Sidney’s tight as a goddamn vise pussy.

She gasps, her nails biting into my neck and shoulder, her body a little too tense.

And I’m such an asshole.

Obviously, it’s been a while for both of us but between that ironclad fact and my size, Jesus, I could have hurt her.

“Sid...” Stock still, I wait for her to respond.

Another sharp inhale. “I’m fine.”

“Sid, baby, if I?—”

Her fingers move to my hair, tugging at the roots so I’m looking her in the eye. “I’m fine, Blake. Amazing actually.” Then she smiles and pulls me down for a languid kiss. “I have not been this fucking full in a very long time and it surprised me, but I can’t wait for you to start moving.”

So, I do.

I roll my hips slowly, revel in the feel of her velvet walls as I slide my cock almost all the way out before I push back in at the same pace. Sidney moans, moans low and beautiful, her legs moving higher and tighter around my waist before her ankles lock over the top of my ass .

Fuck.

Fuck me, I have never felt like this before.

Scratch that, I haven’t felt like this since her .

Sure, Sid’s pussy is so tight it’s almost virginal but it isn’t just that. I’ve never felt so right, so perfect or complete, so fucking in love that I’m actually a little emotional over fucking the girl of my dreams after thinking I’d never see her again. But this isn’t just fucking, it never could be with Sidney. It’s passion and heat, lust and attraction. It’s friendship and love, unconditional and forever. This, this right here is what it feels like to make love to your soulmate and I’ll be damned if this girl isn’t mine.

“Blake... oh, oh my god, Blake...”

And Sidney feels it too.

I keep my rhythm steady, my hips rocking into hers slow but firm. Her pussy clenches, flutters, grows even wetter and despite the years between, I can tell she’s already close.

Changing position just slightly, I angle her hips, bottoming out on the thrust then move so her head is between my forearms, my fingers tangled in Sid’s unruly curls. My speed increases, my thrusts become harder and while I begin pounding into the woman I intend to spend the rest of my life with, I kiss her with everything I’ve got.

She meets me thrust for thrust, kiss for kiss, clawing at my back to get as close as possible.

Sid starts chanting my name in between throaty moans and sweet little whimpers before her cunt clamps down on my cock so hard, I can barely move. “Blake! Blake, baby, I’m coming!”

She is.

I can feel it.

I can feel her pussy spasm, feel it gush and milk me, and because I refuse to come without her, I kiss her as hard as I can. “I’m with you, honey. Fuck. I’m with you, Sid. ”

My balls draw up so fucking tight, lightning racing down my spine, and just as my name tears from Sid’s lips, as her nails definitely draw blood, my orgasm shoots through every nerve in my body like an atom bomb while I fire my cum so deep inside her I’m most likely branding her soul.

I drop my forehead to Sid’s, kiss her nice and easy as I slow my movements and ride out every last wave of bliss. “Goddamn, Shortcake.” My arms are fucking shaking. Hell, every muscle in my body is shaking. “That was?—”

“Life changing.” She sighs, a content and satisfied sigh as she peppers my lips with sweet kisses. “And so fucking good.”

With the last of my energy, I wrap Sid in my arms, rolling until she’s sprawled on top of me and let my fingers walk up and down her spine until we’re on the verge of sleep.

I fucking love this woman.

I love Sidney Porter so goddamn much, but somewhere in the back of my mind, doubt is trying to take root.

Not in my feelings for her, not even her feelings for me because even though she hasn’t said it, I know Sid is in love with me too, but there is still doubt.

Doubt that her demons won’t try to sabotage our happy ending when it’s all said and done.

Doubt that my love for her is enough for her to fight them.

Doubt that the girl of my dreams won’t even believe me when I try to prove to her true love really does exist because we have it, even if we did lose it once.
