CHAPTER 46
RYAN’S POV
We reached the house and honestly, I hadn’t felt this whole in such a long time, as if everything in my life was falling into place without me even trying. Anna was with me, actually staying over, we weren’t fighting, we weren’t pushing each other away for once, and she was carrying my mark on her neck, reminding me with every glance that she was mine. I held her waist as we walked down the hallway because I didn’t want to let her go, not even for a second, but then she stopped and started walking toward her room, and I frowned.
“What are you doing?” I asked, still holding her hand.
She looked back at me like I was the crazy one. “Going to my room, obviously.”
I chuckled because I thought she was joking, but when she kept walking, I shook my head. “You mean my room, right?”
She raised a brow. “Ryan, I just want to take a bath and change into something comfortable. I’ll come join you on your bed after.”
I tilted my head at her, amused but also not letting her get away with that. “Nope. You’ll take your bath in my room, you’ll change in my room, you’ll do everything in my room. What exactly are you trying to hide from me?”
Her lips parted, and she gave me this half–annoyed half–flustered look. “I’m not hiding anything! I just… I feel so sticky right now, and I’m sure you feel the same. You take your bath in your room, I’ll take mine in mine, then we’ll meet up. Simple.”
I chuckled again and shook my head like she was testing my patience on purpose. “Come on, babe “I said, pulling her closer before she could slip away. Then, without giving her a chance to argue, I scooped her up and carried her straight into my room.
“Ryan!” she squealed, hitting my shoulder lightly. You’re impossible.”
“Yeah, but I’m your impossible,” I teased, setting her down. I started stripping immediately, undoing my belt, tossing it aside, pulling off my clothes until I was just in my briefs. I looked at her pointedly. “Your turn. Undress while I go run the bath.”
Her cheeks flushed as she folded her arms stubbornly. “You’re really bossy, you know that?”
“Yeah,” I smirked. “And you love it.”
She rolled her eyes but didn’t argue. I went into the bathroom and started preparing the bath, even throwing in some of my scent into the water, something I never really bothered with, but tonight was different. Tonight, Anna was here, and she deserved everything to be special. By the time I was done, I stepped back into the room and froze for a second.
She was stripping out of her gown, her back to me, liding the fabric down slowly until it pooled at her feet. All she had left was a tiny pair of panties, and her bare chest was on full display when she

bent slightly to step out of her dress. My cock stirred instantly, and my chest tightened because I swear I had never seen anything so perfect in my life. She looked so fucking hot it hurt. I had promised her I wouldn’t touch her, but damn, every part of me wanted to break that promise right
there.
“Fuck,” I muttered under my breath before I could stop myself.
She looked up at me then, her eyes wide, and in this shy move that drove me insane, she covered her breasts with her small hands. “Don’t look at me like that,” she said softly.
I rolled my eyes at her, walked over, and gently pulled her hands away. “Don’t hide from me, Anna.” Then I hooked my fingers into her panties and tugged them down slowly, letting them fall to the floor. Before she could protest, I lifted her bridal style into my arms.
“Ryan—”
“Shut up,” I murmured with a smile, carrying her straight to the bathroom. I lowered her carefully into the warm water, and she gasped a little as it touched her skin. Then I pulled off my own briefs and stepped in after her.
Her gaze instantly dropped to my cock, hard and heavy between us, and her eyes widened slightly. I could see the heat flickering in her expression, but quickly held my hand up.
“Don’t worry,” I said firmly, trying to control myself. “I promised I wouldn’t touch you tonight, and I’m keeping that promise.”
She stared at me for a moment before suddenly smiling in a way that made my chest squeeze. “Well
“she whispered, moving closer until she was straddling my lap, her voice breathless, “I didn’t promise anything.”
I froze as she pressed her body against mine, her words sinking in, and for the first time in a long time, I felt completely undone. I couldn’t stop the smile that spread across my face. “God, I love you so much,” I murmured.
She giggled softly, her hands roaming my chest. “Then shut up and let me love you back.”
And before I could even get my head straight, she shifted, settled herself perfectly between my legs and with one bold, reckless move, she reached down, took my cock in her small hand, and guided it straight inside her.
I sucked in a sharp breath, my arms tightening around her instinctively while I whispered hoarsely
“Anna…”
She looked right into my eyes, biting her lip as she sunk down fully, and fuck, I knew in that exact moment that there was no way I’d ever survive her
