Falling for the Bully Read online

  “Not tonight. I’ve got something planned.”

  “What is going on with you? You’re very secretive all of a sudden.”

  Max laughed, grabbing a can of soda. “So, because I’m not talking about every single minute detail of my relaxing weekend, I’m being secretive?”

  “You haven’t got a secretive bone in your body. I say you’re hiding something.”

  “I say, you don’t have a fucking clue what you’re talking about.”

  “It’s nearly lunch. I’m heading over to the bakery. I need something good to eat, and Aria makes one hell of a sandwich. I’ve got a few orders for them. You want to come?” Dale held up a piece of paper.

  “I could do with something to eat.” He wasn’t going to think of Aria’s pussy. Not in front of Dale.

  “You’re acting strange. We’ve all noticed it. Even Trey said you weren’t talkative on Saturday.”

  “I was enjoying some relaxing time away. Give me a break.”

  “What were you enjoying? Why did you feel the need to have a break?”

  “I’m a guy. I can enjoy certain things.”

  “Of course you can,” Dale said, shaking his head. “If it was anything serious, you’d tell me?”

  “Why wouldn’t I tell you?”

  “I don’t know. You’re secretive as fuck.”

  Walking off the building site, Max pushed his gloves into his hands. He loved working with his hands. He didn’t know how Trey put up working all hours inside a building. Max had trained to be a tattoo artist, but he only did little things he was good at drawing, like birds or words. Anything that required detail would always have to go to Trey. If Max wasn’t on the building site, he liked to work with his hands, building and creating stuff. The great outdoors was where he liked to be.

  The walk to the bakery was only ten minutes away. The construction site he worked on was rebuilding some rundown apartments. Most of them had been unhabitable, so the state removed all the tenants, knocked them down, and now they were building them back up, only making them bigger and more luxurious.

  Entering the bakery, he saw June behind the counter and rolled his eyes. That would mean Trey had their baby for the day. Both of them still continued to work, even though each of them had acquired staff for the very purpose of taking time off with the baby.

  Molly let out a giggle the moment she caught sight of Dale, and using the busy shop as an excuse, Max snuck into the kitchen. June told him to leave Aria alone. Their friends assumed he was always trying to make it up to Aria for bullying her as a kid back in high school.

  It had started out like that but soon changed. He liked watching her, even when she was baking. She stood at the kitchen counter. Buckets full of lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, ham, chicken, and cheese were laid out before her. She was filling sandwiches to the brim before wrapping them up.

  “What are you doing here?” she asked.

  To answer, he walked around the counter, wrapping his arms around her, and pressing his lips against her neck. “I wanted to come and see you.”

  “They could come in any minute.”

  “They are distracted, and I’ve got my eye on the door. No one will come in that we don’t want to. How are you today?” he asked.

  “I’m fine.”

  He put his hand on her stomach, teasing down toward her pussy. “You’re sure?”

  “Max.”

  “I can stop if you’re honest with me.”

  “I wish we were back in our room.”

  He groaned as well. “So do I. I wish it was just the two of us together. I can’t stop thinking about how perfect your pussy was wrapped around me.”

  “Max, please, I’ve got to work.”

  “Have you thought about me at all?” He nibbled on her neck and covered her mouth with his hand as he did so she didn’t let out a moan. Once he was done, he let her go.

  “Yes, I’ve thought about you.”

  “And what do you want to do to me?” he asked.

  “I wish you were inside me. Fucking me.”

  He moved his hand beneath the apron he was wearing. The jeans she wore were way too big for her, and that was his bonus. Shoving his hand down her pants, he found her wet heat.

  “You weren’t lying. I can feel how much you want me.” He teased her clit.

  She’d put down the sandwich she was working on.

  He kept an eye on the door.

  “I’ve made a doctor appointment for Wednesday.”

  “So have I.”

  “Good. Once I get the all clear, your pussy is sliding on my dick and I’m going to fill you up. I may make you watch so you can see my cum inside you.”

  She whimpered, and he quickly covered her mouth. He couldn’t stay even though he wanted to.

  Pulling his fingers from her pussy, he stepped back just as June walked into the room. Aria had already grabbed the sandwich, and she looked busy.

  “We’re friends, Max. It doesn’t mean you can keep coming back here.”

  “My mistake.” He licked his finger and winked at Aria. “Be seeing you soon.”

  He intended to walk her home tonight. Nothing new for their friends. He walked out to the main counter where Dale was ordering. Standing beside his friend, he waited to order, and Molly took care of it.

  “Okay, now you look happy—which is new when you go and see Aria.”

  “No, it’s not.”

  “Yeah, it is. Believe me. I’ve been watching you for some time, and you never look happy after seeing Aria. You always look pissed off with yourself. What gives?”

  “Nothing. We’re just finding a way to be friends seeing as our friends are all friends together.”

  “Uh-huh, be careful with whatever you’ve got going on, Max. I don’t want you or Aria to get hurt.”

  He had no intention of getting hurt or hurting anyone else.

  ****

  “You look different,” June said.

  Aria tucked her hair behind her ears before resting the strap of her bag between her breasts. “I do?”

  “Yeah. I don’t know what it is, but you just seem a little different as well. You looked flustered with Max. Is he behaving himself?”

  “Of course.”

  “If he’s bothering you, I could get Trey to talk to him.”

  She waved her hand in the air. “It’s fine. I think Max and I just need to get used to being around each other, you know. It’s nothing personal or anything, but we share friends and if we don’t get used to each other, then it could make for a very awkward situation.” She really hoped it didn’t sound like she was rambling. “I’m going to head on home.”

  “Yes, yes, of course. Hey, you never said how the dating was going?”

  “Dating?”

  “You know, the online dating.”

  “It’s not going. It was a mistake to join. You know how it is.”

  “I do?”

  “I don’t want to put myself out there to be stood up.”

  “You were stood up once.”

  “And it was enough.” Aria forced a smile to her lips. “I’m okay. Really.” The only crazy thing she had really done was sleep with Max. And agreed to never date anyone else, and to go on the pill so they could sleep together without a condom. Her life was perfectly fine. There was nothing wrong with her decisions.

  It was all good.

  “How was your mini-vacation?” June asked.

  Her boss and friend really wanted her to stay and chat. “It was good. I didn’t do a lot.” She wasn’t about to tell her boss she fucked the entire weekend. “I, you know, slept and just relaxed.” She pretended to yawn. “I really need to get going. I’m tired and hungry.”

  June gave her a strange look but didn’t argue.

  Leaving the bakery, Aria didn’t have to wait long before Max was by her side.

  “I can’t believe you did that today.”

  “I was having fun, and I know you were as well. Don’t judge.”

  “I’
m not judging. I just, I’ve got to calm down. I think June knows.”

  “June doesn’t know shit. She has a hunch.”

  “Hunches are not a good thing,” she said.

  “Just keep pretending to hate me.”

  “I can’t,” she said, stopping in the middle of the street.

  “Why not?”

  “I told June we were trying to make it work.”

  “I said the same thing to Dale. We’re fine. You’re stressing about nothing. Come on. I’ve been walking you home for ages.”

  He went to take her arm, but she pulled away from him.

  “See, that wasn’t so bad, was it?”

  She rolled her eyes as they walked around the corner.

  Max offered her a lollipop, which she took, sucking on the sweet treat. He took the keys out of her hands as they got to her place. She didn’t ask him what he was doing. There was no point.

  “I ordered pizza. It should be here in a couple of minutes.”

  “You ordered food?”

  “I’m hungry,” he said.

  She watched him with arms folded across her chest as he began to close curtains.

  “What are you doing?”

  “I’ll grab the food. Get naked.”

  “Now you’re being bossy. We’re not back at the hotel room. I don’t have to do a single thing you say.”

  “No, you don’t, but let’s face it. With how wet your pussy was today, you want to.”

  She glared at him, and he smirked. He removed his jacket, and she wasn’t going to admire the size and hardness of his muscular arms.

  Even today as he’d been sweaty when he touched her, he’d smelled amazing. All masculine and manly, and yes, she was aroused again. Did this guy have, like, a magic wand that he used to make her wet for him? It wasn’t fair, and she didn’t like it, not even a single bit.

  Pulling her bag off, she got naked, very much aware of his gaze on her as she did so. She didn’t try to hide. Part of her expected him to burst out laughing at her, but he never did.

  Staring down the length of his body, she saw the outline of his impressive length against his pants. He was hard for her already.

  He rubbed himself through his pants. “You see what you do to me?”

  The doorbell rang, and he smirked.

  “I’ll grab the food.”

  Moving as far from the door as she could, she listened as he grabbed the pizza, paying the guy. She also listened to the click of the lock as he closed her door.

  “Coast is clear.” Max put the pizza on the coffee table, and she stepped toward him, watching as he stripped down naked.

  His cock stood out, thickly aroused, but he didn’t attend to it. He picked up a slice of pizza, taking a large bite out of it.

  Aria sat beside him, once again aware of her nakedness. When they’d been alone in the hotel room, she had been able to forget whereas now she was acutely aware of herself. Max was so confident, so sure, and she wanted that.

  He was onto his third slice as she took a second one.

  Their silence wasn’t uncomfortable. She rather liked spending time with him. It was new and different.

  Still, June’s questions bugged her. She hated lying.

  “I don’t like lying to our friends.”

  “If we’re ready to tell them the truth, we will. Until then, we don’t. It’s as simple as that, really,” he said.

  “You’re okay with lying to them?”

  “I’m okay keeping certain elements of our relationship from them so I can keep on seeing you, yes. I’m not willing to sacrifice this just so they can meddle in our affairs. I’m not going to let that happen I want to do this with you. Are you having second thoughts?”

  “No.”

  “Then I don’t see the problem. It’s no one’s business but our own.” He reached out, cupping her face. “I won’t tell if you’re not ready to.”

  She’d already finished her pizza. Cupping his face, she pushed him back onto the sofa and moved to straddle his waist.

  “Now this is sexy,” he said.

  He cupped her ass, and she kissed his lips, feeling his cock between her thighs, touching her.

  “You want me inside you?” he asked.

  “Yes.”

  “You still want me to use the condom?”

  “Yes.”

  “Then you’ve got to stop doing what you’re doing and let me grab one.”

  She groaned, rubbing herself against him. This shouldn’t be hard for her. She didn’t want to risk catching anything, and yet, she wanted him to touch her.

  Biting his bottom lip, she released him and went to his jeans.

  “It’s in my wallet.”

  She opened his wallet and paused as she caught sight of a picture of her. Aria knew she would have to ask him about it. It was taken last summer while they’d been out enjoying the sun with his friends. She hadn’t even realized he’d taken it, or that he’d kept it. Grabbing the condom, she stepped toward him.

  “Show me how to do this,” she said.

  “You want to learn to roll on a condom?”

  “You never know when I might need it.” She noticed his jaw clench but didn’t comment on it.

  “Open the packet. It’s quite easy to do.”

  She opened the condom and took out the latex. It felt a little weird between her fingers.

  Max didn’t take it off her, but showed her how to place it on his cock. She was shocked he didn’t lose his erection as she failed a couple of times, and they both laughed in between.

  Once it was securely on, she moved to straddle his cock. With her hands on his shoulders, Max aligned his length, and she slowly sank onto him, loving as he filled her.

  He gripped her hips and moved her down the last couple of inches, and she cried out. This angle was different, new, and he seemed to be so much bigger than she imagined.

  His hands splayed out across her ass, and he guided her, showing her how to take his cock, and as she did, she kissed him. No words were needed between them.

  Aria stood in Max’s sitting room. It was the end of the day, and she’d turned down the chance to go over to June’s or Molly’s. She loved her friends, but she preferred to spend time with Max just a little bit more. Also, he’d tempted her with a little play tonight. He wouldn’t give her the specifics, but he’d teased her enough for her to want to know what he was willing to give her. “What?”

  “Do you trust me?”

  “You want to know if I trust you?”

  Max chuckled and held up a blindfold. “I need to know you’re willing to trust me.”

  “This is a lot kinkier than I thought.”

  “It’s what makes it so much better. So, do you?”

  “Yes, I trust you.”

  She waited as he slid the blindfold on. She couldn’t see a thing, not one little detail. Max was behind her, and he moved some of her hair off one shoulder. His lips went from her neck, down to the strap of her shirt. He slowly slid the straps down her arms, pushing her shirt to her hips. He didn’t stop there.

  The shirt was pushed past her legs, going to the floor, and she stepped out of it. Next, he went to her trousers, removing them from her body until she was only in her bra and panties.

  She didn’t know what to do with her hands so kept them clenched at her sides, anticipating what he’d do next. Max pressed his face against her pussy, his breath startling her as he touched her clit. His tongue pushed the fabric of her panties against her nub.

  His hand went to the strap of her panties, and he tugged hard, the fabric tearing as he did. He spread her legs, and she had to keep her balance as his tongue danced across her pussy. He slid inside, pulling back up to stroke her clit, then going back down again. He did this several times before making her whimper as he pulled away. She didn’t want him to stop.

  “Don’t worry, baby, I’m not finished. I’m not even close to finished.” He flicked her bra off, and she was now naked.


  He pressed against her back, and she felt the hardness of his dick through his jeans. He was still fully clothed as she felt the material against her body. Max moved her forward and positioned her. “Grip the sofa.” She held the back of the sofa and felt as he stroked her body, going down her back, to her ass. He spread her cheeks wide, and she heard him moan. “I love seeing your wet pussy and your tight little asshole.” His fingers teased inside her before pulling out and trailing toward her anus. “I know what I saw, and you like watching a lot of dirty things.”

  She cried out as he pressed his finger to her puckered hole. The feelings from the touch of her anus had her confused. She wanted to pull away but also held her breath to see what he’d do. When he pushed a finger inside her, the burn took her by surprise, but it wasn’t horrible. She heard some movement, and then his lips were on her pussy again.

  “I want to fuck you so bad, Aria. I want to see your cunt wrapped around my dick. You’re already so wet, I know what it is you want, baby. You’re all fucking mine, and I love it when you’re like this. When you’re wet, and hungry, and want my dick.”

  She wanted him. There was no denying it. She was hungry for him. As he licked and sucked at her clit, she rubbed her pussy on his face, not wanting him to stop, not even for a moment. The fingers stroking her ass were driving her wild. She didn’t know when to stop or what to do.

  Over and over, the pleasure built within her, and when she nearly came, Max stopped touching her.

  “Why did you stop?” She didn’t want to sound so desperate, and yet, there was no way she could have sounded anything else.

  “I want to feel you wrapped around me when you come. I just need to put a condom on.”

  She heard the rustling of the foil packet as Max slid a condom on.

  He was behind her, and his cock slid in hard and deep, making her cry out. He was still so big. Each time he fucked her, it was even better than the last one. He’d blown her world apart with the sex. It was incredible, and no matter what June or Molly wanted to do, Max was the one she came to, time and time again, blowing off her friends for this.

  The sex was intense. He slammed inside her, fucking her deep. His hands were bruising as he held her hips in place so he could take what he wanted. She was more than happy to give him everything. He did things to her that not only shocked her, but she wanted to happen again and again.
