“That’s exactly what I wanted to hear,” whispered Marcus while his fingers worked their way inside her dripping wet folds. A moan of sweet surrender escaped Cara’s mouth as he worked up a tempo, making her open wider to give him more access. He thrust in and out of her, his eyes devouring her as he watched her melt at his touch. Soon she came undone, sagging against the cushions behind her. Feeling overwhelmed at last to be touched by the one she loved, Cara closed her eyes with happiness. “Did you miss this? Did you miss my touch?”
“Yes, Marcus. You have no idea how much. I wish I could erase the last three months of my life. Every time Frederick forced himself on me, I wanted to kill myself but couldn’t because of Marianne and my little siblings,” she whispered, as a sob broke out of her mouth. Marcus immediately pulled her closer and held her in his arms.
“I’m sorry that you had to go through that. If only you had reached out to me once, I would have given up my life to save you, Cara,” he swore. Cara placed her hand over his mouth.
“I know now. You’ve already saved me. You’ve given me everything, Marcus. I’m trying to forget my past and move on with you,” said Cara, touching his cheek and gazing deeply into his eyes. He meant the world to her and it was now time to look forward to a new and happy tomorrow.
“Great. Now help me shower and we can go outside. I’m tired of lying on the bed,” said Marcus.
After an hour, she pushed the wheelchair and took him outside. The kids were in the living room as they weren’t allowed to go to school till the police gave them permission to go out. Lucas was playing chess with them while aunt Maggie and uncle Joe sat watching TV. They all looked up seeing Cara and Marcus come in.
“Marcus, can you play chess?” asked Adam.
“Don’t even think about it. There’s not a chance that you’ll win against him,” warned Lucas, making Marcus laugh.
“I’ll play some other day, Adam. Let Luke win today,” said Marcus as Cara pushed his wheelchair closer to aunt Maggie and uncle Joe. Aunt Maggie started physiotherapy and felt much better already. She didn’t need the nurse any longer but Cara insisted that she retain her for another week. Mrs. Jenner brought her friend, Mrs. Davis to work as a nanny for Marianne so that Cara could look after Marcus better. Mrs. Davis was quite efficient and not only started looking after Marianne but the other three children as well, relieving Cara and Mrs. Jenner of some of the workload.
After lunch, Marcus took his medicines and rested while Cara and Lucas went to the police station as officer Berkeley had summoned them. Officer Berkeley confirmed Frederick’s death and as his entire business was sealed and his men arrested, the case was closed. The police requested Cara to send a message out to her fans to calm them down as they all were concerned about her welfare. Cara promised to reach out to her fans now that she and her family were free to live a peaceful and happy life. Lucas thanked the officers immensely and it was already evening when he drove her back home.
“I’ll be returning to New York tomorrow, Cara. Do you need me for anything?” asked Lucas. Cara shook her head knowing that he was a busy man and needed to get back.
“I might if Marcus proposes,” she laughed. Although he had indirectly asked her to marry him, Cara wasn’t sure if she should take the proposal seriously. He didn’t give her any ring after all!
“Oh, he hasn’t?” asked Lucas with a laugh. Cara shook her head with an eye roll.
“He’s crazy about you. I’m sure he has plans of doing it the formal way when he’s better. Wait and watch,” said Lucas. “I’m always a phone call away if you need me for anything.”
“I know. Right now my priority is to get Marcus to his feet. His rib cages will take a month at least to heal. We will start physiotherapy with his legs once the lumber region heals,” said Cara.
“Don’t worry so much. He’s a strong guy. I’m sure he’ll heal faster. Till then enjoy your time together. Update me on your plans so that I can make arrangements to bring Sienna and the kids for your wedding,” he said.
Aunt Maggie was overjoyed with the news of the end to Frederick’s torture but mostly the kids were relieved to be able to go back to school. They all said a silent prayer to thank the Almighty and sat down to dinner. Cara pushed Marcus’s wheelchair to the table and he too joined in with everyone else. Lucas announced his plans of returning to New York, making the kids protest. They had bonded so nicely with him.
“Can you send all my stuff here, bro?” asked Marcus hopefully. “I’m planning to move in here permanently.” Lucas didn’t at all look surprised at his announcement as if he knew it right from the start.
“Sure, leave it to me,” said Lucas. “Concentrate on getting back to your feet, Mark. Listen to Cara and do whatever she says.” Cara grinned at Marcus who rolled his eyes at both of them.
“I can’t promise that,” he grumbled.
“Marcus is worse than these two here,” complained Vera, gesturing towards her twin brothers.
“Look who’s talking! The baby of the house who can’t even tie her own hair,” said Adam, giving her a glare. Vera looked upset and wailed at aunt Maggie.
“My hair is so long. How can I tie it on my own?” she complained.
“It’s okay, children. Let’s not fight. It’s a happy day today since we are free just like we were before,” pointed out uncle Joe. They all agreed and Marcus suggested that they watch a movie later to celebrate. However, in the middle of the movie, Marcus insisted that he was tired and wanted to retire to bed. Cara picked up Marianne and tucked her into bed and pushed Marcus’s wheelchair into their bedroom.
“I can’t wait to start walking again. I’m tired of being confined to a wheelchair,” said Marcus.
“I know. Just a few more weeks and you can move around like before,” she explained. The moment she went into their room, Marcus insisted that she lock the door.
“Now strip for me, Cara. I want to see you, I want to touch and see how ready you are for me,” he whispered.
“I thought you were tired?” she breathed as her heart skipped a beat seeing the familiar look of lust in his eyes.
“I was tired of the movie,” he admitted. He pulled her close and unzipped the dress, letting it fall into a heap on the floor. His hands eagerly unclasped her bra and took it out of her. Cara eased the panties off her as well while his hand traveled up and down her body.
“Kneel down and take me in your mouth,” he whispered hoarsely. Cara didn’t waste a single second and kneeled down before him. She gently eased his throbbing hard shaft out of his pants and stroked it just as he wanted her to. A groan of pleasure escaped his mouth and he closed his eyes, loving the feel of her hands on him. “Faster, Cara.” Cara stroked faster and finally leaned forward and took him into her mouth, working up a tempo, sucking him gently yet hungrily. Soon Marcus found his release and sagged into the wheelchair with ecstasy. He had waited so long for this!
“Help me to the bed, mia Cara. I’m still not done with you,” he whispered hoarsely. Cara smiled and helped him to the bed. “Lie down here,” he said, patting the place next to him. Cara lay down while he touched her, giving her two back-to-back releases that blew her mind away.
“Get up and come closer. I want a taste of those perky brea*ts,” demanded Marcus. Cara noted how demanding he had become and her body responded immediately burning more for his touch than ever before. She loved this impossible and demanding Marcus more, wondering what he would do when he was better!
She went closer to him and he immediately wrapped his arm around her and latched onto her brea*ts like a hungry baby. His other hand stroked and teased the other one while he sucked, bit, and devoured her hungrily. Explosions erupted in her brain while waves of heat again started flowing between her legs. She had no idea how she became so insatiable around him. Her fingers fisted into his hair as he teased her ni*ples to hard pebbly peaks. Cara had no idea that they would make out so much even with his injured body. He kissed every inch of her body, taking his time. He parted her legs and devoured her dripping sweetness as if they were the nectar he needed to survive. He whispered his list of dirty things he wanted to do with her right at that moment. Strangely, Cara loved to hear them all and her body responded desperately to his burning touch.
“Can you feel how insatiable I’m around you? I can’t get enough of you Cara,” he whispered, as he released her lips to rest his forehead against hers.
“So am I but I don’t want you to exert yourself anymore tonight. I’m not going anywhere. Let’s take it slow, Marcus. Please?” she coaxed. Marcus nodded but he knew what he had in mind. He wouldn’t want to take months to heal. He wanted to up on his feet in just three weeks! He couldn’t wait to make her his forever!
