“I don’t want any man to have a hold over me if that happens then it means I’m giving him the power to hurt me. It’s always been me alone Bruno before the boys came.”
“Then why don’t you let me take care of you.”He pulled her into his arms.
“You cannot always fight your battles alone beautiful. Let me stand with you in battle.”
“Who’ll fight your battles if you want to help me with mine.”
He stroked her back ever so tenderly sensation after sensation of erotic tingles heat her up and spread throughout her body.”I don’t crack easy sweetheart.” His endearment warm her heart, it made her feel special, loved, like she belongs with him, in his arms.”How about we put the boys to bed
then I’ll show you just how we’ll fight those battles together.”
“This shouldn’t become a habit Bruno.”She said while taking Logan.
“Do you really think you’ll be able to resist this attraction between us.”
“I know I won’t but I can try so should you.”
“Would you want me to.”She wouldn’t but she isn’t about to tell him that. He spend the night and the next day took all three of them out. Sage had a fantastic time she cannot remember ever enjoying herself the way she did it was as if they are a real family, Bruno is never far away from her, his touch is so tender almost loving in it’s own way. It’s the small things that weaken her heart for him that makes her forget how far a part they truly are, that wishes for them to be a true, real family for him to be able to love her one day. She knows it’s impossible for them to be together and have a future but what harm will it cost if she can pretend for a while, forget that he is the man that everyone worships, the man that’s wealthy that has money, status, fame, success wealth, a man that has it all.
Over the following days Bruno came to visit them frequently he also sleeps over some days, or he’ll come to fetch them then they all spend the night at his house, he had bought two remote control cars that the boys love they wanna drive around in it all day long Bruno doesn’t seem to mind that the twins have so much energy to play around he keeps on buying them new toys everyday one room in his house has been turned into a playroom for Logan and Liam, every toy one can have is in there even their room at her apartment is starting to get full with their toys, Bruno can’t seem to help himself when it comes to the boys he keeps on buying for them Sage has told him over and over again the boys have enough but it falls on deaf ears, he’d bought clothes for the boys too every time they go and visit Sage doesn’t take anything for them because Bruno has already bought everything they need, she’s just glad so far he hasn’t bought anything for her, every second of his time he dedicates it to their sons for that she’s grateful.
She was busy preparing lunch for the boys when her cell rang, in an hour they’ll wake up and want food, she hasn’t seen Bruno yesterday but he had called before the boys went to bed she’s missing him like crazy not a day goes by without them making love whenever they are alone they always end up naked in each others arms.”Hey Sean. How are you?”She asked when she saw it was her brother.
“Better now that I’ve heard your voice. You don’t call like you used to.”
She sighed softly.”I’m sorry Sean, I’ve been busy.”It’s true Bruno and the boys have been keeping her so busy that she hardly got time for anything or anyone.”Work, plus two cheeky boys is a handful.”
“You don’t have to explain sis I understand.”
“How are you doing? Gina told me you found a new job I wasn’t suppose to say anything but I can’t hold back the excitement for you.”
“Yeah but I wanna see you so we can talk in person.”
“You always welcome Sean you know that.”She hasn’t told him about losing her job yet.
“How are the boys especially Logan.”
“He made a great recovery and Liam is cheeky as always not wanting to do as he’s told.”
“That’s how I know him, I miss you guys Sage.”
“Oh Sean we do too. When are you planning on coming.”So she could warn Bruno he shouldn’t make unannounced visits because her brother will be here.
“Why? So you can hide or warn your boyfriend about my visit.”
“Don’t be ridiculous, I don’t have a boyfriend that I’ll hide from you Sean.”
“If I was seeing someone I would’ve told you.”
“Would you really. Is there anyone special in your life anyone I should know of.”Sage can’t tell him about Bruno she doesn’t even know if things will work out between them, whatever they have is temporarily.”Your silence is telling.”
“No it’s not that, there’s someone at the door.”She lied. On cue it rang, she went to answer and saw it’s Bruno a light flutter in her stomach grew, it took everything in her not to throw herself on him.
“Let me not keep you then.”
“You don’t have to hang up Sean.”She said.
“I know I don’t but I’ve gotta go. I love you guys. Take care of yourself and the boys.”
“We will. You too send my regards to Gina.”She followed Bruno into the living room.
“Are you okay? You look troubled.”He took her wrist and made her sit down next to him on the couch. Before she could answer he claimed her mouth in a slow tender kiss Sage gave an inward silent sigh, she’s missed his gentleness the way his soft kisses can make her forget and all she wants to do is lean closer and lose herself in him and his scent.”Missed me.”He asked pulling away.
“No I didn’t.”She lied.
“I missed you too.”He said with a grin and pulled her on top of him to straddle his thighs.”Is Logan and Liam asleep.”
Sage could feel him swelling and hardening against her sex, her own loins contracted in anticipation.”Yes.”She murmured her tone filled with arousal.
“Then let me show you how much I’ve missed you.”In one swift move he stood with her, and carried her off to bed, where he gave them both the pleasure they have craved and missed in this one day, making love with Bruno is beyond incredible he knows her body better than her, know where to touch her, caress her and where to kiss her, she comes alive under his touch, she loves his hands all over her she loves everything he does to her body and make her feel. A while later when they both were sated and lying naked in each others arms Sage thought about her brothers words “Is there anyone special in your life I should know about” What is Bruno to her. What can one call what they have. The big question is what do they have, she can’t even answer the questions. Should she ask him. Is she ready to hear the answers he’ll provide.”What is it?” How can he tell she has something on her mind.
“How do you do it?”She asked.”You always seem to know what I’m thinking or when I wanna ask something. Are you a mind reader or what.”
“I told you before for me you easy to read. Just like when you lied about seeing someone I saw through you the second the words came out of your mouth. There’s nothing I don’t know about you beautiful, I know the scent of your skin your favorite perfume, how you like your tea with breakfast. I know you love to cuddle against me after making love, you like brushing your leg up against mine when we lying naked in bed like now you doing it.”
“Is there anything you don’t pay attention to.”She lifted her head to look at him.
“When it comes to you I pay attention to everything. Wanna share what’s on your mind.”
“Sean my brother is coming to visit. I don’t know when but I’d appreciate it if you called before coming over. He doesn’t know anything about us or whatever is happening now. I don’t even know what to call this.”
“Why haven’t you told him. Are you ashamed of me or whatever we have.”
“What do we have Bruno except a few stolen moments in bed, this lust won’t last forever.”
“Don’t talk about what we have as if it’s nothing. Whatever we have is special I would suggest you tell your brother the truth about us.”
