His Sweet Reward Page 9


  I bury my face in his neck as he makes me quickly climax. The man knows my body better than I do and he enjoys himself as he licks his fingers clean.

  “That’s going to be the last one for a while.”

  I breathe him in, feeling more relaxed now. I already was but now I’m mush.

  “It will be worth it.” I nod in agreement.

  I hear his phone buzz and know it’s time to go. He helps me to my feet and I take one last look around our home.

  “When we come back here we’re going to have a houseful.”

  “We might need a bigger place,” he says offhandedly, and I smile.

  “Yeah, if you keep putting triplets in me, we might.”

  I take his hand as we walk to the elevator. We’ve talked a lot about finding a home with some land. I’d love a farm with a few animals, but I wanted to wait. It was a lot to take on right now in the wake of our wedding and the news of triplets. We got married fast and found out we were expecting in a blink after that. I’m pretty sure he knocked me up that first night we made love. I wanted to enjoy our quiet time before the babies arrived and not have a million other things on my plate.

  “Well, that’s what you get for having such a sweet pussy.”

  I burst into laughter “Don’t make me laugh.” I grab my stomach.

  “Sorry.” He smiles, but I’m not buying it.

  The car is waiting for us when we exit and he helps me in. “My bag,” I shout, thinking I forgot something.

  “Already beside you.”

  “Right.” I should have known he would be two steps ahead because he always is. He gets in behind me and wraps his arm around my shoulder. “You’re about to be a daddy.”

  “I don’t know what I did in this life for you to give me this gift, but thank you.”

  I look up at him and see the tenderness in his eyes. “Thank you for loving me.”

  “Never thank me for that. It’s impossible not to love you. It’s like breathing.”

  Like always he melts my insides and lives up to his word. He might not be perfect, but he’s perfect for me.

  Epilogue

  Dash

  One year later…

  “Are they finally settled in?” Brooklyn asks as I close the door to our bedroom.

  “I think they were too excited to sleep, but they’ve finally passed out.” I smile as I shake my head. “Your daughter is just like you.”

  “Why is she my daughter when she’s done something mischievous?”

  I raise my eyebrow at her as I take my shirt off.

  “You love it.”

  “I do,” I agree, walking across the plush carpet to our bed. “Are you finally settled in?”

  She bites her lip as she wiggles under the covers and nods. “I can’t believe we’re finally spending the night in our new house.”

  We’ve spent the last year raising our two sons and daughter in the penthouse downtown while we searched for the perfect place. It didn’t take long for us to realize we couldn’t find the perfect place, but we could find the perfect spot. We knew where we wanted to be and about how much land we wanted, and once we found that I had a construction team get to work. We built our dream home, and although it took time, we’re finally here.

  We brought the kids home today and it’s the first night they’re in their new rooms. My mom is staying in her wing of the house tonight for the first time as well, since we asked her to live with us. It was Brooklyn’s idea, after my mom constantly wanted to be with the triplets and helped us out during Brooklyn’s recovery. We’re the only family she has left, so it made sense. I had them build a whole section of the house just for her, and she cried the day we showed it to her.

  I didn’t realize how starved for family Brooklyn was until we were married and expecting. Ever since the babies arrived it’s like a switch has been flipped for her. She’s finally able to have what she always wanted and be surrounded by people that truly love her because of who she is.

  “Are you happy with the bed?”

  She laughs and nods as I crawl on it to join her. We debated over our bed for weeks until she found the perfect one. It’s big enough that our entire family could sleep in it if she wants it that way, but also perfect for our nighttime mattress dancing.

  “Good.” I push back the covers and climb on top of her and she spreads her legs. “I think we should break it in just to be sure. Don’t you think?”

  “You’re probably right. We should give it a thorough once-over before we pass the warranty date.” She licks her lips and I grin as I move down her body and push her knees apart.

  “Buttercup, what I’m about to do to you on here is going to void that warranty.”

  She moans as I kiss the small patch of curls on her mound and then slide my tongue between her lips.

  Her thighs fall open all the way as she rocks her hips up to meet my mouth. Her favorite thing in the world is my mouth on her pussy and I can’t say I disagree. I push two fingers inside of her as I slick my tongue over her clit and then suck on it. She’s slippery already and I glide in and out of her easily. Her grip on my hair tightens as I get my pinky wet and then slide it to her back entrance. I press into her just a bit and she releases my hair to claw at the sheets. I smile as I lick her pussy and keep playing with her.

  This little treat drives her wild, and the sight of her coming undone gives me just as much pleasure as it does her. I grind my cock into the mattress to relieve some of the ache, but it does no good. I’m hard and heavy for her, and there won’t be relief until I’m inside her tight cunt.

  “Dash, oh god, I’m right there.”

  “Where are you, Buttercup?” I curl my fingers in her pussy just a little and rub that special spot she likes most. She cries out and rocks her hips to try and get that last little edge. “You’re going to wait for me, aren’t you?”

  “No.” She shakes her head back and forth on the pillow. “Just make me cum again later. Don’t make me wait.” She whines and grabs my hair again to hold me in place.

  I have to hold back a laugh at seeing her so close to her climax. She always gets bossy when I’ve got her like this, but I love it. “As you wish.”

  With one flick of my tongue across her clit, she cries out and her body tenses. She falls over into paradise and her pleasure is my own. Her body is flush and her nipples are tight as I watch her cum for me. There’s nothing sexier than seeing my wife lost to her desire.

  “Remember what you said.” I kiss my way up her body and thrust into her still-pulsing pussy in one long stroke. “You’re going to cum again for me.”

  “I can’t,” she moans as she lies on the bed, splayed out and boneless.

  “You will.” I lean down and suck on the tight peak of her nipple as I thrust harder.

  “Dash,” she moans and I feel her legs wrap around my waist.

  “That’s my girl.”

  In the end, she gives me what I want, but it’s really what we’re both after: her pleasure.

  I went into all of this with an idea of what I wanted in my mind, but from the moment I met Brooklyn she changed all of that for me. She’s more than I could have hoped for and she’s made my life one that’s beyond what I could have dreamed. She tells me all the time that I’ve made her so happy, but I don’t think she will ever understand how she has changed me.

  She made me into a man that I’m proud to be; a husband to her and a father to our babies. What more could I ask for then her by my side? She’s my reason for breathing and my sweet reward.

  Chapter 1

  Bailey

  “I should have brought a change of clothes,” I tell Kyle as I take my purse out of my locker then close it again. “It’s too late now.”

  I’ll never be able to drive home and still make it to the meeting on time. Not that I really have anything nicer than my work uniform I could wear. I have no clue what people wear to a shareholders meeting. Not that I even know what a shareholders meeting is. All I really want is a minute of Mr. Reed’s time, and I know he’ll be at the meeting.

  He’s the CEO and holds the majority shares for Community Mart grocery stores. It’s an employee-owned grocery store, which means all the employees who work at the grocery store have stock in the company. It’s part of being an employee, but it also means you can go to the quarterly meeting if you like. I’ve never known anyone to actually go before, but I don’t have any other options. Talking to the CEO is my last shot. He could make or break things for my sister Hazel and me.

  “Who cares? It’s your work uniform and it’s a company meeting. If they don’t like these uniforms, then they should change them.” Kyle plops down onto the bench and opens up his lunch. He digs into the bag and it reminds me that I haven’t eaten today. By the time I got off the phone with one of my sister’s doctors, I’d been out of time to eat and had to get back to my register.

  “The uniform isn’t that bad.”

  Kyle makes a face at me as if I’ve lost my mind, but I’m not sure he’d find any uniform to his liking. He told me the other day it needed a pop of color. We wear black pants with a white polo and our name tags. If you ask me, I think we’re pretty lucky and I’m not going to complain about it. Over at Sun Price grocery store they have to wear these ridiculous hats that have a spinning propeller on top of it.

  “I could blend into the walls wearing this.”

  “With the customers we get, sometimes I wish I could blend in with the walls. I don’t need any flair to draw attention to me.” You’d be shocked how mean some people can be over expired coupons or us running out of a product. Not that they’re all bad. I do have a ton of customers I love who always seek out my line.

  “Ain’t that the truth. Mr. Sims is always on the lookout for you.” Kyle wiggles his eyebrows and I have to fight a groan. Who doesn't that man notice? I think his only preference is vagina.

  “Please don’t start with that.” I sit down next to Kyle on the bench and he hands me an apple slice. I take it knowing this will be it until I get home and have dinner tonight.

  “Just saying he’s a hottie.”

  “He’s also our boss,” I remind him. I have no desire to get tangled up with my boss and then end up without a job when things inevitably go south. The store manager, Mason Sims, thinks he’s a ladies’ man. I think he’s only into me because I never flirt with him like everyone else does. He’s so creepy. He’s our freaking manager and he flirts with everyone. Not just employees but customers, too.

  “Don’t forget a manwhore,” Kyle adds, reading my mind. He scrunches up his nose and shakes his head. “Who knows how many holes he’s stuck his D into.”

  I smack his arm. “Shh,” I half-heartedly scold him, not wanting us to get busted talking shit on the boss. “That’s gross,” I add. I don’t want to think about Mason’s D.

  Don’t get me wrong. I can see why it’s so easy for Mason to land as many women as he does with his looks. He’s got that whole all-American thing going on with blond hair and blue eyes. He’s also good at his job, except for the flirting crap. Still, he rubs me the wrong way. Those baby-blue eyes of his linger too long on my body and it makes me uneasy. He’s clever, though; he makes sure to do it when no one else is around.

  “You going to make it home before Annie needs to leave? I can always go over when I get off my shift,” Kyle offers, making sure I have someone to take care of my little sister if I can’t get home fast enough.

  He knows my sister Hazel can’t be home alone. She gets off school at three, and the state helps with after school care three days a week because she is special needs. The other two, Annie comes to the grocery store and helps bag groceries. She loves it. She spends all the money she makes on feeding her animals.

  “I should be fine. Annie doesn't leave until six thirty. I think I should be back home by then. The meeting is at three. How long could it last?”

  “No clue. Sounds boring as shit to me. I’d fall asleep.” This I believe. Kyle can power nap anywhere. I’ve had to nudge him awake a few times at work. I once found him asleep on his lunch break in the back room on a pile of paper towels. It actually looked more comfortable than my bed. But in all fairness, my bed is a sofa pullout. “Let me know if you get held up. You know I love me some Hazel Basil time.”

  “You can come by for dinner if you want. I promised Hazel we’d have pizza tonight.”

  “Sounds like a plan. I’ll grab the pizza though. One less thing you need to worry about.” I reach for my purse to fish out some money. Pizza is the one thing I let us splurge on each week. It’s Hazel’s favorite. “Don’t even think about it.” Kyle stands and grabs his lunch. “I’ll get the pizza. You get it next time.”

  “Thanks.” I know he’s offering to pick it up because he knows how tight money is for Hazel and me. I also know there’s no fighting with Kyle when he gets his mind set on something. I learned that within the first week we worked together.

  I’m more of an introvert who wants to work and keep my head down. I have too many other things to focus and worry about and don't have time for friends. Hazel owns all my time and I’m good with that. I love my sister and we are a team.

  When I met Kyle he informed me we were going to be best friends. I brushed off his comment at first, but within a week he was right. The man is relentless in the sweetest way. I don't know what I would have done without him over the last few months.

  “See you tonight,” he tells me as he starts to push out of the break room. “Oh, and I hear Mr. CEO is a hottie!” he yells as he departs.

  Of course he heard that. When I think of the CEO of Community Mart I think of a graying older man in his sixties with a big belly. I do think he’s probably really kind if you go by how he runs the company. The stores are always putting on food drives and offering different things for employees. Like the program they offer so that Hazel can work here even with her special needs. It’s why I had a spark of hope that Mr. Reed would be able to help me. He seems like he cares, and I’m banking on that today.

  Picking my purse up from off the bench, I head for Mason’s office. The door is open, so I knock on the frame. He looks up at me from over his computer and smiles.

  “Come on in, Bailey.”

  “Oh, I was just letting you know I’m heading out.” On Thursday I normally work until six, but I requested off early for the meeting.

  “You’re really going to that?” Mason asks, and I nod. I’m not going because I care about the shares meeting. I’m going so I can get a minute of Mr. Reed’s time. I’m told he’s always at the meetings. Though with my luck lately he won’t be this time. But I still have to try. I really don’t want to go the route of showing up at his office. That seems creepy, and I really want to make a good impression.

  He lets out a long sigh. “Fine.” He shakes his head as if he’s disappointed in me for taking the time off. Which I’ve never done before. In fact, I pick up every shift that I can and come in when they need me if called. Asking to leave a few hours early should not be a problem. “But we need to talk when you get back,” he adds, making my stoma
ch clench with panic.

  “Is something wrong?” I take a step into his office, wringing my hands together. I cannot lose this job. Not only do I need the money, but the insurance is about to be everything for Hazel and me. I need that more than anything.

  “I think maybe your role around here should change. Maybe a promotion.” He stands up from his desk and walks towards me. I have to fight myself from taking a step back. He reaches out, tucking a piece of my blonde hair behind my ear. “I do need an assistant manager now that Kim is leaving to go work at the corporate office.” His finger trails down my neck and it sends uncomfortable chills down my spine.

  Here I thought Kim leaving was going to be a good thing. She was mean and I’m happy she’s gone. Kyle, Hazel and I might have all done a happy dance when we heard the good news. Kim didn’t like us, and it didn't help that Hazel is not one to hold her tongue. She made a few comments about Kim right to her face, and it took everything in me not to burst into laughter. Though it was clear to Kim at the time I was dying to. That really didn’t help her from disliking our little group.

  I’m pretty sure she’s leaving because of Mason. Another girl bites the dust after having a quick affair with him. They all fall in love then can’t stand to watch him move on so easily. Kim had taken it harder than some of the others. She’d gone from mild bitch to mega bitch.

  “I should really go. Don’t want to be late.” I swallow the lump in my throat, wanting to get out of here before something happens. He's offering me a promotion. It’s better pay, but I can see clearly what he wants in return. My skin feels tight and the office feels smaller.

  “We’ll talk about it later,” he finally says after a few beats.

  I think he was enjoying my unease. I nod before I practically run from his office. When I finally make it to my car, I let out a deep breath I didn't realize I’d been holding. My mind races, but I push all the Mason Sims bullshit to the side. I have something more important to focus on right now. I’ll worry about that mess tomorrow.
