CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY FOUR: NO WORK.
~GREY’S POV~
I carried my sleepy wife to the bed. She turned in my arms before I could leave to make a phone call.
“Baby, stay. I want to cuddle.” I kissed her forehead and she sagged against me. Slipping in beside her, I spooned her but she turned in my arms so she was facing me.
“Grey?” my eyes met hers and my thumb caressed her jaw. “I know I’ve not been the best wife to you and you must be tired of hearing this from me but I wanted to say thank you. And to let you know I love you. I don’t take your love and care for granted, even if it feels like it sometimes. Lately, everything feels like it’s falling apart and I’ve been lashing out at you and I’m so sorry for doing that.”
Tears trickled down her cheeks. “Hey.”
“Please, let me finish.” I nodded but my hands moved to her cheeks to wipe her tears. “Even if it doesn’t feel like it when I’m being such an asshole, I want you to know I still love you. Please, don’t stop loving me. I wouldn’t know what to do with myself if I didn’t have you in my life. And I promise to show you how much you mean to me more often. I love you, baby.”
“I love you too, Mira Evans Anderson. You make my life better. Don’t ever stop loving me, even when I’m old and wrinkled and ugly and without any teeth.”
Mira burst into laughter and my heart rejoiced at the sound. “You can’t be ugly.” She cupped my cheeks. “You are such a fine man. I can never stop loving you, baby. You are my sunshine and I can’t do without my sunshine, Grey.”
“I can’t do without my heavenly flower either.” A yawn escaped Mira and we both laughed.
I tickled her sides and she erupted in a fit of giggles. My nose touched hers. “You should get some sleep. I’ll be right here when you wake and I won’t love you any less than I already do.”
My wife kissed my nose. “Goodnight, Grey.”
Darkness fell over the room when I flicked the switch. My chest pressed to Mira’s back and my mouth met her shoulder.
“Goodnight, my baby. I love you.”
A yawn slipped from my lips. Before long, my breathing fell into tune with Mira’s and I was fast asleep.
When morning came, Mira was not in bed. I rubbed my eyes and sat up. The bed was warm. She couldn’t have been gone for long. The door of the bathroom opened and Mira walked in with a shy smile. I patted my legs and she bridged the distance to sit on my lap.
“Good morning, baby.”
“Morning,” I replied with a kiss to her cheek. “Slept well?”
“Yeah. You?”
“Slept good too but my wife wasn’t in bed when I woke up.” she laughed at my reply. She adjusted her weight and straddled me. I observed my wife’s face. “You look happy.”
“Thanks to you.” A peek at the wall clock showed we had about thirty minutes to dress up or we would be late for work. Mira twiddled her fingers and I caught her hands. She wanted to say something. I smiled to encourage her to tell me. She didn’t have to worry about me getting mad at her.
“Your mum called when you were asleep.” I waited a second or two for her to continue. When she didn’t, I cupped her chin. “I picked. And errr… I told her we were coming.”
Not bad news to me. But from the look on her face, Mira didn’t seem to think so.
“When?”
“Huh?” she asked.
“You told her we were coming, right?” Mira’ s lips thinned and she nodded. “What day did you tell her?”
“Friday.”
“Friday? This Friday?” I reiterated.
Mira placed her hands on my shoulders. Friday was only three days away. My eyes sought hers to be sure I heard right. We had to address the main issue that had kept us from traveling to Europe.
“What about your mum?”
“We won’t be in Europe forever,” Mira replied with a forced laugh. At my stern glare, she sobered. “I don’t think my presence is needed at the hospital, Grey.”
I wanted to disagree with her but that could lead to a breakdown so I simply nodded.
“But we can visit her before we travel. Maybe to let her know, I guess.”
I nodded. My thumb raced along her chin and my wife bit her lips. It caused a stirring inside me and my arms lowered to the small of her back.
“Did you tell her you’re her daughter? Or anything?” she shook her head. “Why not?”
“Since she didn’t remember, I didn’t think to mention it. What if she says she has no daughter, what then?”
It was my turn to shake my head. I tucked hair behind her ear. “The doctor said to show her things that might help jog her memory. So you have to tell her. Hearing you call her mum might work wonders.”
“Okay. But it has to be tomorrow.”
A sound of interest left my throat. “Why tomorrow?”
“Because I want to take you out today.”
Mira jumped off me. I followed suit and she let out a peal of laughter when I tackled her back to the bed. Pinning her under me, a hand wrapped around her wrists to hold them above her head while the other pried her gown open.
“Where to?” I teased as I took a nipple in my mouth.
Mira moaned out my name. Her legs locked around my waist and I released her hands so she could massage my scalp. The lust in her eyes reflected the one in mine. I groaned. My wife was too hot.
“We will be late to work.”
“About that…” Mira pushed herself up,
pushing me down to the bed in the process. She sat astride me, one leg on each side of my waist, running her crotch against my groin. “I called the office. I spoke to Bethel and Sarah.”
Thoughts flicked through my mind. I didn’t have any important meetings today. She kissed me and her hand slipped into my shorts.
“The office will survive in our absence. No work for both of us today.” Her thumb spread my precum all over my shaft and my mouth parted in a silent moan. “We have the day off to do as we like or what, Grey.”
Lust shadowed her face, she shredded her gown before I could blink, dragging my shorts down my waist. Her mouth closed over my pulsing dick and my hands reached for her head. I fisted her hair, eyes rolling back as she swallowed a few more inches of my length. Her nails sank into my thighs when I tried to quicken her movements, she looked up to me with eyes darken with desire and I came in her mouth.
Mira was laughing as she adjusted. I didn’t get a chance to recover before she started stroking my limp dick. All it took were a few strokes and my cock stirred back to its full shape. Her smile was mischievous as she lowered herself onto my dick and we grunted.
I tried to take over but Mira shook her head. She helped me with a pillow behind my head and began bouncing on my cock growing inside her cunt. A curse flew out of my lips as skin slapped against skin, moans mingled into moans and breathing became one. Her inner muscles clenched against my dick, milking me of my sperm, spreading bliss through my whole frame. Ignoring her warnings, my hands curved around her waist and I kneaded her ass.
Our gasp of shock and pleasure shook both of us, her breasts jiggled with each bounce and I pinched her nipples so hard welts covered her skin. She grabbed my hands, holding them above my head as her body stretched against mine. Her breath warmed my face, she smiled and bounced on my dick one last time before an earth shattering orgasm rolled over us.
