“Yes, if you let me breathe,” she smarts off.
“Fine, I’ll stop doing this too.” I thrust up, grinding while doing so, giving her clit that friction I know she craves.
“God, Chance.” Her head arches back, leaving the column of her throat bare for me.
“I know. Fuck, do I know.” I nip at her neck, both of our bodies working together.
“I love you, Chance, so much. I know you didn’t leave me, even if I let my mind wander. I knew you’d always come back to me. I just didn’t expect it to be tonight.” It’s a good thing she got that out when she did, because the way our bodies are moving, it won’t be long until we both come together.
“Baby, I told you. I’d fight for us, no matter what comes our way,” I grunt, feeling her cunt tightening around my length. A ripple moves through my body, and I hate like hell I’m about to shoot my load deep inside her body so soon.
“Chance.” My name coming from her lips is like a plea.
“Come for me, Peyton.” It comes out as a groan as I thrust up, making sure to swivel my hips. My eyes look at everything that is the woman who is my life, her head tipped back in rapture, biting her lip, her eyes closed, tits bouncing, and don’t even get me started on the view I have of my cock tunneling in and out of her tight heat.
“I’m coming.” As soon as the words tumble from her mouth, she’s bringing me with her. I lazily slide in and out until we both come down from our high. Thank God for a tankless water heater, or we’d both be freezing our asses off.
“What a way to profess our love for one another.” Peyton’s eyes open, a glazed look covering her face from her orgasm.
“Pretty sure we’ve loved each other all along. At least I know I did,” I confess.
“I knew you did. I was being a scaredy cat and didn’t want to say anything until you did.”
“Kinda figured that, baby. Let’s get washed up and head to bed. I could use some sleep, real sleep, and by the way, you do too.” I lower her off my length.
“Sleep, it’s been so long since I’ve had a full night of sleep.” For Peyton to admit that, I know she’s really let her guard down.
“Well, you won’t be sleeping alone anytime soon. Fox is taking care of the electrical issue, but if I have to go back down there, you’re coming with me. No matter what. If we have to hire someone up here for a temporary position, we will.” I’ve looked over the numbers, and as much as I’m still looking at other plans, I know we can at least do this for the time being.
“Okay.” She’s already grabbing my body wash, and I know we’ll be going another round after she has her hands all over me again. Fuck, I may have screwed up in the beginning, but now the only way from here is up. Especially with Peyton by my side.

Peyton
“Are you crazy?” I ask Chance the next morning over breakfast. We both decided to play hooky from work, at least for half the day. I needed sleep, and he needed time to recharge.
“Not that I’m aware of. You have to admit it’s a solid plan. The only stipulation is we’d spend half our time in South Carolina and half our time in Lodgeview,” Chance tells me.
“Have you talked to your accountant, a financial planner? I mean, I have a nest egg put away that I can help with, but still. You know?”
“Baby, I wouldn’t have brought it up to you if I hadn’t thought of that. I love like hell you’re offering to help me out, but I’ve been socking money away. I’ve had a few potential clients reach out to me while I was in South Carolina, and it would be lucrative as hell.” Chance is making me a hot cup of tea after making himself a cup of coffee. We’re total opposites when it comes to our version of caffeine.
“Just the same, if you realize you need it, or if we need the money to put a down payment on a place down there, we have it,” I offer.
Chance doesn’t know it, but after my breakdown last night, I called my girls. The insight they gave me made me pull my big girl panties up and realize the past is the past. And I need to be living in the future. That’s why when I heard the water turn on, I knew I needed to be the one to go to Chance, not the other way around.
“Not gonna argue on what you do with your money. I hope we don’t have to dip into it. We both want children, and we could always put that away for their college.” This man, he never ceases to amaze me.
