“I could expect something like this from him”—I gesture to Chandler—“but you? I’ve never been more disappointed in you in my life.”
“I bet you he had a little dick too.” I laugh. “If it’s in comparison to his ego, then yes, absolutely. There’s no way there’s room for both.”
“Yeah, maybe so, but you know what else is crazy?” “What?” “Your father when he thinks you’re riding more than Saint’s motorcycle.”
“Don’t forget, Golden Girl, that you’re mine to kiss… touch… whatever I want. Even if it’s just for show.”
“I’m staring because you look good enough to fucking eat, and all I can think about is laying you down right here on this ice, flipping up that little fucking skirt, and seeing just how good your sweet little pussy tastes.”
“Never have I ever wanted to kiss the girl who’s driving me fucking insane with how badly I want my lips on hers in a broken elevator where she looks so goddamn beautiful I feel like I can’t even breathe.”
Lennon’s lips fall open. “Is that… Is it…” Her words trail off, and I chuckle. “Is my cock pierced? Yeah, Golden Girl. It is.”
Slowly, he sinks down to his knees. His arms slip around my waist, his big body draping over my lap as he buries his face into my stomach.
“Why did you come here, Saint?” “I didn’t know where else to go.” It’s a whisper, his voice rough and uneven as he pauses, holding my gaze. “You’re the only thing in my life that feels right anymore.”
“You are perfect, and if anyone makes you think any differently, then I’ll fuck them up.”
“Because it’s mine, baby. You chose me, Lennon, and this is me choosing you.”
“I don’t know what I’m doing, Lennon. And I’m fucking terrified. Terrified that I’m going to fuck up the best thing that’s ever happened to me, terrified that I’ll never be worthy of you no matter how hard I try. But you’re in here.” His fingers curve around my wrist as he lifts my hand and places it on his chest, directly over his heart. “In so fucking deep.”
“I don’t know what it means, and I have no fucking clue where to go from here… I just know that I don’t want to be without you. I can’t be without you, baby.”
“It’s okay, Saint. It’s enough for me. You are enough for me. I don’t need the perfect words; I just need you. However that needs to be, okay? We’re just going to be us. That’s it.”
He’s lost the fucking plot if he thinks that I’m going to stand here and let him disrespect Lennon. He can insult me all day. But her? Not happening.
“Unlike you, I will always put your daughter first. There’s nothing in this world I wouldn’t do for her. No line I wouldn’t cross. One day, she’s going to find out about all the fucked-up, disgusting shit you’ve done to get ahead, and you know who’s going to be there when she does? Me, motherfucker.”
“You are already that man, Saint. You don’t need to change to be anything other than what you are. The man that I fell in love with.”
“It was the right thing to do. I needed you to know that someone would fight for you. I will always fight for you. And now we know the truth. We can truly be free, Saint.”
