Becoming Maddie (The Casterhouse series Book 1) (36 page)

Smiling big at Maddie, Aiden mentally cut in half the number of days before he proposed to her. Bring his head down he swooped in for a taste of those tantalising lips of hers. There they made out, on the path half way to their flat with Marvin sniffing at tree’s close by.

Aiden didn’t know how it happened but he was on bloody lucky man.

Chapter 27

Unlocking the door then letting Marvin run in ahead of her, Maddie sighed and rubbed the back of her neck. It had been a seriously long day.

Strong male hands moved her smaller, female ones out of the way and took over the rubbing.

“Tired?” Aiden whispered into her ear.

Maddie gave a deep, heartfelt moan of pleasure as he worked out all of the tight tough knots in her neck. The magic in this man’s hands was endless.

“I might just fall asleep right now.” Maddie mumbled. “Don’t stop.”

Aiden gave a small chuckle but he kissed where he was rubbing and stepped back. Although he didn’t totally let her go. One of his hands moved from her neck to take her hand and gently pulled her deeper into the flat and towards the bedroom. Maddie had no energy to complain, not that she would have anyway.

It had seemed like a long day when she and Aiden had watched the police pull out of the parking lot but it had just gotten longer after that.

They had walked for a while not saying anything at all. Just as close to each other as they could be while taking in their surroundings and saying nothing. After they got back to the flat Aiden went and got the truck keys from John. Together they headed back out again.

Aiden broke the news to Fiona and Eddie. Maddie had thought that it would be best that she wasn’t there when Aiden broke the news but he was having none of it.

“You’re my family, they are my family so they are also your family, so let’s get in there and get this done.”

Maddie couldn’t find an argument to that plus it had made so much sense that she couldn’t argue anyway. That and it hit her in a place that made her warm.

After a quick, courage inducing, make out session on the pavement outside, they went in and told them about Jessica. Fiona cried, Eddie wrapped her in his arms and together they listened to the whole story. Maddie and Aiden stayed for a cup of tea then headed out to leave the couple to work through their feelings together just like they were working through theirs.

Before making the final trip of the day, back to the flat, they stopped at the hospital to visit Jean.

She was looking much brighter but still there was no mistaking the fact that Charles had definitely made his point. Every time Maddie looked at the bruises covering her face or the way she sat in the bed, she was favouring one side over the other, Maddie got the message Charles had left her. Loud and clear.

Aiden helped. He gave the two woman time to talk then when he came back into the room he put an arm over Maddie’s shoulders and held her close. Her man knew exactly what she was feeling and how to control the conflicting emotions that were swarming through her head.

Jean had helped too. Maddie explained that she would not be running anymore. Jean totally understood and thought she was making the right choice and had only said what she had because what had happened that night. They talked about that too. It wasn’t pretty and Maddie hadn’t really wanted to hear any of it but she knew her friend needed to talk. If in some way she could make her friend feel even a little better then she was going to make sure she would do that, even if it gave her awful flashbacks.

When they had walked out of the hospital, Marvin tied up under a little shelter watched them come towards him with a wagging tail, Aiden told her that that was the last time she would do that for Jean.

“You can be there for people baby, but you need to start being there for them in a way that doesn’t torture you.”

Again he was totally right and she couldn’t argue with that. Although Maddie did add something of her own.

“When he gets caught I hope there will never be anymore situations where I have to do something like that for my friends at all.”

Aiden had said nothing but nodded and kissed her forehead before unlocking the truck and taking the three of them home.

As they entered the bedroom, Maddie just wanted to fall into the bed and sleep for at least a month, if not more. It had to be said that Aiden looked like he wanted to do the same. Marvin had already gone to his red cushion and curled up. Lucky dog.

“Let’s get into bed Ruby.” Aiden mumbled before starting to take off his jeans.

Even though she was so tired she could have slept standing Maddie could still feel the excitement at seeing his naked body slowly awaken her body. Aiden had such an amazing physique. The way he moved was both manly and graceful too. He seemed completely oblivious to how good looking he was and his personality was so down to earth and funny it was no wonder that he had had so many woman. There was a flicker of doubt that sometimes came to life inside her. What did he see in her? There was no way that Maddie was anywhere near his league let alone a good enough person for him.

“Ruby you’re not moving.” Aiden said as he stood in just his boxers looking at her. “Let me help.”

Walking towards her he unwound her scarf slowly and then went for the hem of her jumper and t-shirt underneath. As he whipped both over her head Maddie laughed.

“I can undress myself!” Maddie gasped fighting his fingers that were trying to get at the button on her jeans. “Aiden!”

Smiling at her Aiden took a hold of both her hands in one of his and with the other undid the button and lowered the zip.

“I know you can but I like doing it for you.” Aiden breathed against her lips as he dived in for a kiss.

Giving everything she had to him in that kiss Maddie enjoyed as he took the rest of her clothes off. Going by the impressive bulge in his boxers she figured he was enjoying this just as much as her.

Maddie suddenly felt so attractive and powerful. She made him feel that way, she had made the bulge in his boxers. Maddie was good enough for him because she was going to love him for all of her days.

Finally getting into the mood, Maddie ran her hands over his body just like he was doing to her. Her hands felt every inch of his chest and down over his abs. The happy trail of hair led her down and into his boxers.

“I love having your cock in my hand.” Maddie huskily whispered as she looked into Aiden’s eyes.

She could see the surprise in the caramel depths but it was instantly taken over by burning heat. Then she couldn’t see in his eyes anymore as he proceed to kiss her dizzy. It was amazing, out of this world even, but Maddie needed to make this about him.

For reasons beyond her understanding at that moment she wanted to give him something that showed just how much he meant to her. Aiden was always there for her and after what he had to go through today she wanted, no, needed to give him something that had nothing to do with anything other than making him feel good and loved.

Kissing him back she started to move her hand on his cock. Wrapping her fingers round it she moved her hand from root to tip. When it leaped in her hand she knew he was enjoying her touch.

Pulling back from his lips she kissed along his jaw and down his neck while still moving her hand.

“That feels so fucking good.” Aiden groaned cupping the back of her head as she started to kiss lower.

Down over his impressive chest, Maddie took in the taste of his skin and the feel of the strength that his body held. God, she was so wet. Her breast felt tight and the ache in her body was asking for attention but Maddie did her best to ignore this and focus on what she was giving Aiden.

Slowly she went down onto her knees and took her hand out of his boxers. The bulge that had looked good before looked even better now. Maddie’s mouth was watering as she took in the little wet spot on his boxers. He was so excited already and not even a little embarrassed at showing it.

Maddie hooked her fingers into his boxers and pulled them down, slowly. Aiden’s cock caught on them before springing free causing her to suck in a sharp breath at the sight of him. Looking up at his face, Aiden was watching her face and the reactions she knew he was liking.

“You wet baby?” He asked roughly.

Looking back at his cock again she licked her lips. When Aiden groaned again Maddie looked up at him surprised at the noise considering she hadn’t touched him yet.

“God! You don’t even know how fucking hot you are.” Aiden exclaimed as his hands went to her shoulders and rubbed there. “Tell me how wet you are baby? Check for me.”

This was all about him and if Aiden wanted that then she would give it to him and with a show as well. Lifting one had she put it on his hip while the other hand ran down her body and over her breast. It paused there to play with her nipple a little, making her breath faster, it then made its way lower and lower still.

In front of her face Aiden’s cock leaped again and Maddie whimpered a little at the spasm that caused inside her.

Now her hand was spreading her outer lips and a couple of fingers slid over her wet clit and down before entering herself. Maddie’s mouth felt open and her head felt back a little to look up at him.

“Soaking.” Maddie replied finally.

The hand that had been resting on Aiden’s hip moved to wrap around his cock. Once more it worked him from root to tip. Just watching this and playing with herself was going to get her off and soon.

Maddie wanted Aiden to be right there with her.

Moving so that her mouth was a whisper away from the tip of his cock she looked up at him and licked her lips again.

Aiden made a noise that seemed to be somewhere between a whimper, groan and gasp. It was a noise Maddie loved and wanted again. Looking back down she could see a drop of clear liquid was coming out of the tip of his ready cock.

Maddie wanted him to lose control. Closing that last little gap she used the very end of her tongue to lick that droplet away before sucking the head of his cock deep in her mouth.

That incredible noise came out of his mouth again as both hands came to the back of her head. They didn’t push or move her in any way, they just held on for the ride.

She could feel and taste his excitement. Maddie knew he was close which was good because she was nearly there herself.

“Fuck come for me baby then take me all.” Aiden said his hands gripping her head just a little tighter.

Letting his cock come out of her mouth she looked up at him. Her hand kept working his cock as she pushed herself over the edge. Maddie had masturbated before but this was so much more. Knowing that Aiden was getting off on watching her playing with herself took it to a new level. The pleasure that surged through her body told her that.

“Beautiful.” Aiden mumbled almost to himself as he held Maddie’s head as she rolled with the bliss that took over her.

Coming back down, she opened her eyes and saw the fire burning inside Aiden’s. Tilting her head down again, Maddie took his cock back in her mouth. Sucking and using her tongue she worked him to the point where his hands were tangled and gripping her hair tight. Groaning around his cock in a way that she knew he would feel and love, Maddie used one hand to work the bottom of his cock and the other to cup and play with his balls.

“Ruby… Ruby I am going to…” Aiden panted. “You need to…”

The only thing Maddie did was work him harder and faster. She wanted all of him and she wanted it now. Groaning again she communicated that.

That was the last straw for Aiden and he lost all control as his hips shot forward and rocked slightly. Maddie moved with him but kept working his cock even as she felt her mouth fill. Swallowing and gentling her movements Maddie looked up at him.

She had done it. Maddie had managed to give him something that was just for him and his pleasure. Sure she had fun on the way too but when you were with someone like she was with Aiden that’s what happens. You give and they give too.

“I think you broke my cock baby.” Aiden said still breathing a bit fast.

Maddie sat back on her feet and looked up at him with a huge smile on her face.

“I hope not.” She laughed.

Aiden bent suddenly at the waist and lifted her up into his arms. Maddie squealed but held on. He liked to do this. Pick her up and just hold her or move them to the bed. Like he was doing now. He flicked back the covers and carefully placed her under them. Getting in behind her Aiden moved them so they were in the perfect little spoon and big spoon position that they both loved so much.

“Thank you.” Aiden muttered into her neck. “I love you.”

Smiling big into the pillow, Maddie took a second to try and control the happiness inside her. How can it be, after a day like today, that she can still be happy as she goes to sleep? That wasn’t Maddie…that was pure Aiden.

“I love you.” She whispered back.
