Seducing Her Beast Read online

  “Nothing is going to happen to me. I’d like more children but only because I love having babies that we’ve made. You have to admit, having children is a lot of fun.”

  Wayne chuckled. “I’ve turned you into an insatiable woman.”

  “You don’t mind that I love your cock?” She felt the heat fill her cheeks even as she said the words.

  “The Lily I knew wouldn’t say such things.”

  “What can I say? I’ve evolved.” She leaned down and kissed him. The moment to her was perfect. She couldn’t imagine making out in the back of the car with anyone other than Wayne.

  Chapter Thirteen

  Wayne loved the feel of her in his arms. Her legs straddled either side of his hips. He wished they were at home. The chill of the night was already seeping into the car. Going to the movies would have been better in the summer. Next time he’d think longer when he took her out. It would have been better to take her to the movies in a building or a restaurant. Her smile captivated him unlike any snowfall he’d ever seen.

  In a few days it would be Christmas, and he couldn’t wait for the big day. He looked forward to spending it with his children and wife. Usually he spent the day in his office working. No longer would he allow work to take over his life. He had so many people in his world, and he’d make sure to put them first.

  He glanced outside the car and saw the first snowflakes beginning to fall. “It’s snowing,” he said.

  “I know. I don’t care about the movie, Wayne. Being with you is the best date ever.” She cupped his face then leaned down to kiss his lips. “I think this has been good for us.”

  “In what way?”

  “We’ve spent a great deal of time together. We’re coming back together. With life and the kids we’d forgotten who we were. This has reminded me how important it is to spend some time together.”

  Wayne agreed completely with what she said. They needed to learn to take the time to spend together. There was a knock on their car window.

  Lily giggled and climbed off his lap. Wayne opened the window staring out at the guy he’d purchased the popcorn and milkshakes from.

  “Sorry to spoil your date, but we’re shutting early. We’ll give you a discount for the next time you come. The snow doesn’t look like it’ll let up, and we don’t want to risk any danger to you.”

  “No problems.” He reached out and got the discount ticket from the guy. “Thank you for this.”

  “Have a great Christmas and you too, Miss.” He then left walking toward the next car.

  “I guess we’d better go home. It’s cold. We could go and do some of the final wrapping if you’d like?” she asked.

  “We don’t have to go home straight away. Most of the roads will be clear, and we can spend a little more time together.” Wayne didn’t want their time alone to end.

  “Okay. Let me have your phone, and I’ll call dad to let him know we’ll be home soon and that we’re safe.”

  Wayne handed her his phone. He got out of the car to climb into the front while Lily climbed between the seats. The way she moved, he got a tantalising glimpse of the curve of her breasts. His cock thickened as he knew how soft they felt against him.

  He got in, started the car and made sure to turn the heating on.

  Lily handed him back the phone. “Why aren’t we leaving?” she asked.

  “I’m letting everyone else go first.”

  “This was amazing. Dad said the kids were fine. They’re in bed now.”

  “How many days do they have left at school?” Wayne asked.

  “They don’t. We’ve got them all to ourselves to get them in the Christmas spirit. Why?”

  “Because I was thinking of taking them to one of those country fairs at the weekend before Christmas Eve. Get some carols in, some hot food, and let the kids wear themselves out by having fun,” he said.

  “I like the sound of that.”

  “I do as well. First, I want to take you somewhere.”

  He pulled out of the driveway and made his way to the edge of the city. There were several times during his travels he’d seen this beautiful reservoir where people could go and visit. He knew it wouldn’t be open, but they’d be able to get out of the car.

  Their jackets were in the trunk of the car ready for them.

  “I’m excited again. You’re full of surprises.” After the forty-minute drive, Wayne knew she was anxious. He reached over taking her hand. It was amazing what time together could do.

  He pulled up and parked the car. “We need to get out,” he said.

  “It is freezing cold.”

  “Don’t panic. I got your jacket.” Wayne got out of the car, grabbed her jacket then helped her out. She wrapped her arms inside. He chuckled then took her hand as they made their way to the edge of the reservoir. It was dark, but he saw the top layer on the surface had been frozen. It was glistening in the moonlight.

  “This is beautiful,” she said.

  “When I’ve gone away for a few days I stop here for a few minutes to take in the beauty of it,” he said.

  “I can see why. It’s beautiful.”

  “This place helps me to think. I wanted to share it with you.”

  “Thank you.” She leaned against him. Wayne wrapped his arms around her. He saw a bench a little up the path, and he led her down to it. He sat on the main table and lifted her up to sit in between his legs.

  He wrapped his arms around her waist. Wayne rested his head on top of hers. They sat with the snow falling and the moonlight glistening over the still water.

  “I wish we could stay here forever,” she said.

  “We can’t stay here, but it can be like this for us for the rest of our lives.”

  “Do you promise?” she asked.

  “There is nowhere else I’d like to be than with you in my arms. When they grow up we’ll still be together.”

  “Who would have thought how amazing this would be. I never thought we’d last.”

  “Sing for me, baby.”

  “Huh?”

  “We’re here, so no one can you hear you but me,” he said. “I’d love to hear your voice as I look out at the wonderful view.”

  She didn’t move or make a sound for several moments. When he thought she wasn’t going to sing he was about to apologise, but then he felt her take a breath, and the first notes of her song hit him. He stared out at the water, listening to the sweet tones of her voice. She sang him a love song, one about long-lasting love. He knew her words came from her own heart. Lily loved putting her own spin on a song. He heard the passion in her voice, the love she felt and again the fear that it wouldn’t work out. Wayne held her throughout the song. All that was missing was the background music. She knew how to play the piano. He’d made sure she learned.

  He hoped to hear her singing at the piano and playing the music to the song she was singing. It shocked him how much she loved music but didn’t want a life within it. A few minutes later, her words came to a close.

  “That was so beautiful, baby. Thank you for singing to me.”

  “I wrote it during the couple of days you were gone. I knew you loved me, and what scared me was you’d still left me. I wish I could forget those awful few days.”

  “Me, too, baby.” He kissed her shoulder.

  She shivered, and he knew the cold was starting to become a problem.

  “Come on, baby. Let’s go home.”

  He took her hand and led her back to the car. She went willingly with him.

  Lily felt her heart racing. When he’d asked her to sing she’d wanted to bare her soul to him. The song she’d written for him specifically. He closed her door, and she knew she’d done the right thing. Their closeness had built over the last few days. She felt like she had her husband back. He got in the other side and began driving back home. No words needed to be spoken. She knew Wayne was never leaving her again.

  She was the only woman to love him for who he was and not what he
could give her. The drive felt short to her, but she knew it was a good forty minutes to get home. The snow was falling thick. They pulled up into the driveway. He closed the gate then helped her out of the car.

  “Come on.”

  Her father was sitting at the dining room table wrapping presents. He smiled as they walked in. “Did you have a good date?” he asked.

  Lily leaned her head against the door frame. “The best. What are you doing?”

  “I’m wrapping my own presents. You guys have probably got enough for the kids to sink a small ship, but I wanted to bring something of my own.” Her father placed a bow on the centre of the gift.

  “Hi, George,” Wayne said.

  “Wayne.”

  She watched her husband walk past her father into the kitchen. “How are things between you two?” he asked.

  Lily took a seat next to him. He only had one more present to wrap. Wayne handed her a cup of hot chocolate. “I’m going to go and get ready for bed. Thank you for watching the kids, George. I’ll see you in the morning.” He lingered on her neck with his touch. She knew he would be up waiting for her.

  “You both seem happy,” George said.

  “We are. Very happy. He’s not going to leave me again, Dad. Will you cut him some slack?” she asked.

  “I’ll cut him some slack when I know he’s not going to leave my daughter hanging around waiting for him to return. You were the one going through it, Lily. I saw how broken you were over him leaving. I won’t let him get away with it.” George took his glasses off to look at her. “You’ve forgiven him easily. I don’t want him taking advantage of that forgiveness.”

  “I know he hurt me, and so does he. We’ve not had the best of starts like other couples. We’re learning along the way. Please, give him the same chance I did. I know Wayne has had everything handed to him. The money, business, and the reputation. He got me through helping you, but there is a side to him that you don’t know. I do. He’s a pain in the ass and domineering in his manner, but he does love me, Dad. He loves me and those kids. He’s learning. You don’t understand what he’s had to grow up with. I’m not saying I’m any better. All I know is that I’m prepared to give him a chance.”

  “You’re too forgiving,” George said.

  “And you’re not forgiving enough. Cut him some slack. I’m going to bed. I’ll see you in the morning.”

  George smiled at her, and then she made her way up to their bedroom. Wayne was undressing as she entered.

  He put on a pair of night pants. “I thought you like to go naked,” she said.

  “Your father is in the house. I don’t think walking around naked will be ideal for him.” He held up her black negligee. She hadn’t worn it since before the night he’d left. “Wear this for me?”

  She took it from him then made her way into the bathroom. After a quick shower, she dried her body then changed into the negligee. She stared at her reflection in the mirror. It was a lovely night piece. She loved the feel of it against her skin.

  Taking a deep breath she walked back into the bedroom. The light was off, and Wayne was sat in bed waiting for her.

  “You look stunning,” he said.

  “How can you see me? It’s dark.”

  “I’ll always be able to see you.” She smiled at his corny response. Lily moved to the bed and lifted up the covers. Wayne began to lie down. She lay facing him.

  “What did your father say?” Wayne asked.

  “That I’m too forgiving. I should make you earn it all back. Yadda, yadda.”

  “What did you say?” He stroked her hair over her shoulder and down her back.

  “That he doesn’t forgive easily enough. I’m happy with our relationship, Wayne. I don’t need anything else.”

  “I love you, too.” He leaned over, kissing her head. “Can I hold you tonight?”

  “Yes. I’d love that.” She snuggled up close to him. His arms circled round her. She closed her eyes relishing the feel of the man she loved holding her. Nothing in the world could hurt her with him close to her.

  Sleep came easily, and Lily was comforted in the knowledge that Wayne wasn’t going anywhere. He loved her, and he knew she was where she wanted to be.

  Chapter Fourteen

  The next few days went by in a haze of activity. Wayne left the house once to pick up his gift for Lily. George stayed for Christmas. They didn’t want him on his own at this time of year. Wayne spent as much time as he could bonding with his father-in-law. It was difficult because of his own relationship with his father. They never spoke.

  While Lily was baking some sugar cookies and mince pies, Wayne took the kids out into the yard to make a snowman. George stood with him. They were both wrapped up in jackets and scarves. “This weather is a pain for my arthritis.”

  “How are you feeling now?” Wayne asked.

  “Better. You know I’ll hurt you if you hurt my daughter.” Wayne glanced at the man at his side.

  “I’m pleased you care enough to threaten me,” Wayne said.

  “I wasn’t the best father to her growing up, but I’ll be the best damn father to her now.”

  “Then we’re both clear. We both want Lily to be happy, and for that to happen, we need to be happy with each other. I’m not going to mess up again, George. I promise.” Wayne waited for his father-in-law to respond. The older man kept his gaze straight ahead.

  Suddenly, George turned toward him. “Fine, I’m proud to call you my son.” He held his hand out for Wayne to take.

  Wayne shook his hand before pulling him against him for a bear hug. “Thank you for giving me a chance.”

  “I’ll do anything for my daughter. I’ll even forgive you.”

  “Good.” Wayne moved away with a happy feeling in his heart. He joined in making the snowman. When he looked up he saw Lily on the porch staring at them. She waved her hand toward him. He lifted his hand then went back to helping.

  Once they finished, he went in search of refreshment for them. Lily was pouring the chocolate from the pan into each cups for them. “You’re a goddess,” he said.

  “I know what my family need. The snowman looks adorable.” She finished pouring then handed him the tray. She added a plate of biscuits to the tray to finish it off.

  “More adorable than I am?” he asked.

  “Yes, he won’t answer back.” She chuckled as he put the tray down then grabbed her close.

  “No, then I’ll leave you in the capable hands of the snowman. Oh, right, I’m the only man who has ever blown your world.”

  “You’re egotistical. Besides, I love you.”

  “Don’t I know it.”

  He leaned down kissing her. Her plump lips gave under his. He moaned, loving the feel of her against him.

  Their sighs mingled together, and her hands circled his neck. Her breasts pressed against him. All he wanted to do was push her against the wall and take her there and then.

  “We can’t do anything,” she said.

  Wayne groaned shaking his head. “We can. Just forget everything else.”

  “We can’t, baby. We’ll be together tonight.”

  “Promise,” he said.

  “You can bet on it.” He kissed her one last time then took the tray of sweet treats out to the children. They crowded around him. Wayne didn’t know what had changed inside him. All he knew was he didn’t feel like he had anything else to prove to the world. Lily loved him for him. He was happy, and for the first time, he wouldn’t change a thing in his life. Lily had given him so much more than love and children. She’d given him a life he could enjoy. He looked forward to giving her the same kind of love and devotion.

  Blake threw a snowball at him. Wayne laughed, reaching down to grab another handful of snow. He threw it back, and chaos ensued. Lily came out to join them. The fight had them all in fits of laughter. Wayne charged for his wife and tumbled her to the ground. They were laughing.

  He kissed her and thrust his cock against her.

&nbs
p; She chuckled at him then put some snow down his jacket.

  Wayne was happy.

  Lily glanced down at her children unwrapping their Christmas presents. Wayne sat in the chaos of wrapping paper as he helped his son and daughter unwrap a present George had given them. Her father loved using cello tape. Most of his gifts were covered in an even layer of the stuff. She chuckled when they became frustrated and went for scissors. Her gift was upstairs in the bedroom for Wayne. It wasn’t anything extravagant, but she’d spent most of the year making it for him.

  She went into the kitchen to check on the turkey and to grab some trash bags for the paper. Wayne was gathering the paper up when she returned. “They’re in the sitting room waiting for your morning muffins,” he said.

  “How are you finding this?” she asked.

  “Perfect. I can’t believe I was such a grouch for this time of year.” He cleaned up the mess then took her hand in his and walked her up the stairs. “I’ve got something to give you. It’s something I had specially made for you.”

  Lily sat on the bed as he went to get his gift. He came back with two boxes. The first was a small velvet box. She opened it up to find an interlocked wedding band and engagement ring. On the inside of the ring was a message.

  “Yours forever,” she said.

  “I wanted to show you I’m in this for the long haul. These rings were a design idea I had, which is why I wanted you to get your ring size tested.”

  “This is beautiful, Wayne.” She removed her wedding bands and replaced them with the delicate design of the one he’d given her. Lily loved the feel of it on her finger.

  “I don’t want you to take it off, and when you ever doubt my affection, look down and know you own my heart.”

  Tears sprang to her eyes. He looked so sweet and tender as he said the most beautiful words she’d heard.

  “I hope they’re good tears,” he said.

  “The best kind of tears.”

  “Open this as well.”
