Chapter 133 Meeting the parents
Uriel's POV
"Fuck, I can't get enough of you," Ryder dragged his breath along my neck, sniffing me in. "You seem so good. Every-fucking-time."
Giggling, I turned to my side, facing him.
"Hey you!"
"Can I make it 8? You know, round figure?" Ryder smirked, wiggling his eyebrow.
This boy was highly energetic and it should be troubling but I also couldn't get enough of him.
The only thing that was going to make me turn him down is the fact that I was freaking sore, beyond compromising.
"You're an animal," I joked, hitting his chest playfully.
"You don't fucking know how good it feels to be inside you, that's why you think I'm overdoing it," he brushed his hand on my nipple. "So soft,"
A dull ache pulsated between my legs. Heat began to spread across my body, my body jerking to his touch.
"See? You want me too," Ryder whispered softly in my ear.
"Okay, okay, fine. I'm still sore," I whispered lowly.
He jerked back, concern etched on his face. "Fuck, I'm so sorry. Come here, I'd help you take a shower okay?"
"No, it's fine. It's not the first time we're fucking till I'm sore," I chuckled.
"Hushh! The wall has ears," Ryder eyes sparkled, his fingers on my lips, shushing me.
"Why? You don't want people to hear how feral you are?" I mumbled against his fingers.
"You make me sound like a wild animal, Kinky,"
"Bingo! Now you get my point." Ryder threw me a playful glare, flipping me off as he rushed to stand up. "Uhh, Kinky?"
"Yeah?" I raised my eyebrow at him, my laugh dying down.
"Can you get more of that netty thingy you wore last night? Like a lot, maybe different designs. I'll cover all cost," his tone was serious.
Subtle laughter cracked out of my lips.
"And the attitude too. Hell, I just want a repetition of that night," he held his hand out for me, then changed his mind as he carried me bridal style, holding me delicately with so much ease.
"Don't get tired later on," muttering, I rested my head on his chest.
"Not even in my fucking dream."

The rest of the week and maybe half of the next was filled with explorations. Ryder and I tested our sexual boundaries, trying out new methods to ascertain what we liked and what we didn't.
We liked almost everything.
I was equally an animal too right?
Oh well...
You really attract what you are.
I wasn't complaining by the way.
Anyway, today was different because we had returned to our city for that talk Ryder had with his mother and I was going with him.
He insisted.
Honestly, I understood him.
If I was ever gonna have the talk with my parents, I'd need him there too.
"Ready?" Ryder asked from behind me, his hot breath fanning my neck. Smiling, I nodded, turning around to face him.
He held my chin, dropping his lips softly on mine. "Thank you for doing this with me,"
"Oh, it's nothing babe." I trailed my finger along his lips, cleaning off my lip gloss. Not like it ever affected him though.
"Leave it! I want everyone to know I kissed your pretty lips," he held my hand, smacking his lips.
See? I told you.
"You're so dramatic," a subtle laughter left my lips. Ryder took my hand in his, leading us down the stairs.
"We're not going with your car?" I raised my eyebrow at him when a black Jeep drove to where we stood.
"I guess so," Ryder shrugged, holding the door open for me. My eyes blinked, my forehead creased in confusion. "Don't overthink it, baby. Just enter."
Sighing heavily, I nodded before making my way inside.
My legs bobbed up and down nervously. When I turned to Ryder, his eyes were shut, his demeanor calm.
Why was I the one feeling tensed on his behalf?
Weird.
Minutes later, we arrived at our destination. The place had a resort kinda setting with blue waters, trees and the likes.
It was chilly though, I liked it.
Ryder dominated the place, walking freely like he had memorized this place a thousand of times.
"Ryder -" the rest of the words got thrown back down my guts when my eyes landed on Benjamin.
"Come on, you also need to hear his side," Ryder tugged at my hand lightly. My feet was stuck to the ground, my blood running cold.
Guilt flashed in Benjamin's eyes. When he stepped aside, my breath hitched. Standing behind him was my mother, as in Gina. Then by her side was Ryder's mum.
My mother nodded at me to come forward. Ryder smiled down at me softly
"You should've told me at least," I left his hand, walking first to take a seat.
"Hi kids"
Everyone exchanged pleasantries, smiling like everything was okay. Like they all didn't have a part to play in messing with us emotionally.
"I'm sorry for not checking by you if this was fine before imposing myself on you," Benjamin cleared his throat, saying.
"Don't you just do whatever you want?" I muttered under my breath. Ryder placed his hand on my thigh, making me inhale sharply. When I turned to look at his eyes, I automatically softened.
"Your ... Benjamin and I have made amends, dear. Please listen to him," Gina spoke softly, flashing me a small smile.
"Okay, Benjamin. I hear you," I nodded at him, placing my hand on Ryders'.
He started by apologizing for everything he did to my mother and then went on to tell us how scared he was and how his friends told him that it was a bad idea for the kind of career path he was going after.
Nothing new from what mother said. At least, not yet.
"Then I had an accident one day. I kept thinking of Gina. She wouldn't remove the child and... and I didn't feel good that I was being asked to abandon her. I didn't feel like I was doing the right thing. So that day, I got so into my head and got into a terrible accident, flying over the bridge."
My stomach knotted. My chest panged with remorse, my eyes growing wide.
"When I woke up, I couldn't remember shit. It was as though a part of my life had been erased. The doctor confirmed it too later on. He said it was severe and that it would only take a miracle to get it back," Benjamin sighed, cleaning his sweaty palm with a napkin.
"So you forgot about us," I said lowly, my eyes teary. "Not because you wanted to."
He nodded. My mother covered her face with her palm, her ears red.
"I kept seeing a face I couldn't quite comprehend in my dreams. It haunted me for year, I had to go for therapy." Benjamin's voice broke. "I felt empty for a long while, like I had lost a part of myself but I always thought I felt that way because of my memory that I couldn't quite retrieve,"
"So, why are you certain now?" I asked, my eyes boring into his.
"I saw your picture with Ryder one time. You looked exactly like the woman in my dream. Eventually, I started having flashbacks and then finally pieced everything together... Recently." He said calmly. "I really am sorry. I would've come back for you. I knew I would have if I knew."
Tears were now streaming down my cheeks.
"Please forgive me," Benjamin walked up to me, crouching down until his knee touched the ground. My eyes widened, my head shaking rigorously.
"No, please!" I begged him, pulling him up. "I forgive you."
"I don't expect you to take me as your father yet or anytime soon but I want to make up for those times. To you and your mother,"
"What about your fianceé?" I asked, raising my eyebrow up.
"We're not getting back together, dear. But we'll be co-parenting. We're sorry," Gina spoke up, smiling sadly at me.
I stayed silent for a while, staring between the both of them. The air was filled with tension, nobody wanting to say anything first.
"Are you guys happy?" My voice was soft, cracked.
They both nodded.
"Can I get a hug from you guys then?" I blinked rapidly, trying to hold back my tears.
They hurriedly crowded me, wrapping their arms around me softly.
"I guess it's my turn,"
Benjamin pulled out first from the hug, bracing himself up as he placed his hand on Ryder's shoulder.
"I haven't been completely honest about your father,"
