“Yes, I brought them.”

“Good girl.”

She smiled up at the praise I had given her like it was a lifeline, and I leaned down and placed a kiss on her lips before taking a seat next to her on the bed.Her eyes watched me as my fingers dipped in and out of her core and I lowered my head and took her hard little clit into my mouth.The second my lips sucked on her, I saw stars.The sweet taste of my baby girl and the scream she let out as her body shook under my command made me want her more than I had wanted anyone in my life.Her hands came down and ran through my hair as she moaned out her ecstasy, screaming my name.

New Beginnings

Raven

Iwokeuplaterthan normal, completely unaware of where I was.As my eyes adjusted to the dim light of the room, everything came flooding back to me.The auction, missing Talia, Beckett’s hands and mouth all over my body.A shiver of pleasure ran through me as my memory brought last night to the forefront of my mind, and I smiled.I couldn’t remember the last time I slept as well as I had.Sitting in his lap with my head against his chest, I had dozed off, completely satisfied to stay right where I was.My level of comfort with someone who was a stranger less than 48 hours ago was disturbing.The second I was in Beckett’s presence, my guard dropped and my good sense went out the window.I looked up at the ceiling, trying to figure out what it all meant.I supposed that was a good thing, since I’ve agreed to spend the next five years of my life with the man, but it still unsettled me.

I rolled over and reached for my phone, dialing Talia’s number only to get her voicemail again.One thing was certain, not being able to reach her made me more than uncomfortable.I knew little about Beckett, but I had a feeling he may help me track her down.If nothing else, he should be able to reach out to The Perfect Match people and make sure she was okay.There were procedures in place for them to check on us regularly.

I dragged myself from the bed and made my way into the bathroom, already forgetting about the camera until it was too late.I stopped and looked up at it, deciding in that moment that I wasn’t going to let it bother me.Beckett had said he was the only one who had access to the feed and at some point I would hope we’d share living space.I’d have to get comfortable around him one way or the other, and this was a good start.I smiled at the camera and flipped my hair over my shoulder, turning back towards the bathroom and closing the door behind me.

After I showered and got dressed, I massively needed coffee.I opened the door to the bedroom and nearly screamed when I saw Beckett laying on my bed, propped up against the headboard scrolling on his phone.

“Good morning, Baby Girl.”

“Good morning.”

“I didn’t mean to startle you.I promised I’d come for you this morning, and I didn’t want to break my promise.”

The softness in his voice made me want to crawl into his lap and purr like a damn kitten, so I did.He held his arms out as I closed the space between us and got onto the bed, allowing him to pull me into his chest.

“Did you sleep well?”

“I did.Did you?”

“I slept fine.I dreamed of you, so that made the night sweeter than I had expected.”

My heart warmed at the thought of him dreaming about me, but I was too nervous to ask what it was about.I smiled up at him and he placed a soft kiss on my lips.

“How about some breakfast?”

“Does coffee come with that?”

“It does.Come, let’s head out to the balcony.I’ll have them bring your beloved coffee and we can talk while you eat.”

“Aren’t you hungry?”

“Oh I am, but not for food.”he said with a wink, “I’ve been up for a few hours and ate after the gym.”

“You went to the gym and had breakfast all while I was asleep?”

“We have a gym here, which makes it easier.I’ll show it to you when I take you around today.But yes, you missed breakfast.I felt like you needed the sleep.”

“I guess I did.”

Beckett walked me out to a huge balcony that overlooked the city.The sounds of New York in the morning were calming for me.I spent my entire life listening to them and the familiarity was refreshing.We always lived in places that were close to the subway station because my mom didn’t want to walk far at night.That meant we had a lot more noise than an area like Beckett’s but it didn’t matter where you were.Mornings in the city all sounded the same.

“Have you always lived here?”I asked.I took a seat at the table.

“Kind of.I’ve always had some type of home here, but I have a tendency to move around quite a bit.”

“Michael said you don’t normally spend weekends here.Where do you go?”

“That depends on work, but if I don’t have any place to be, I usually stay at my property upstate.It’s not too far from here, but I like the ability to get away from the city.I also keep less staff there, so it gives me alone time when I need it.”
