Free No More Waiting (The James Family Book 3) by C.M. Steele

but you know I might have to cheer for him.”
    “Now that’s not nice. You want your brother to give me a beating.”
    “Well, then I can kiss your boo-boos.”      
    “Speaking of kissing,” I whispered, leaning into her and pressing her against the truck. I pinned her in before kissing her softly, letting our lips play gently. Pulling back after a minute, I helped her into the truck.
    We drove in silence. After months of talking on the phone, just being with her was enough. We were almost there when I asked, “Babe, I know it’s late, but did you eat?” It was then that I turned to her and she was passed out. Smiling to myself, I drove on, every once and a while glancing at my sleeping beauty.
    Returning to the estate, I carried a sleeping Vanessa to her room. Instead of laying her down and running, I locked the door behind us. She woke up the moment when I laid her down.
    "Tim, that kiss today? Was it because you missed me or…?" her voice begged for clarification trailing off so that I couldn’t hear the last bit. It didn’t matter. I knew what she was asking.
    "Sweetie, it was real. You're mine—pure and simple. I let you leave me knowing you wanted me, and it was the hardest thing I ever had to do, but you needed to experience life outside your castle."
    "I've spent enough time away."
    "Yes, you have. You definitely have,” I whispered. I bent down and pressed our lips together. Slowly and sweetly, we kissed, cementing our lives as one. The taste was sweet and all consuming. We kissed until we came up for air. Her eyes met mine with a look of absolute desire, sleeping no longer interesting.

    The look in his eyes told me everything I needed to know. I was safe in his arms and in his care. A life with him was all I needed. Elise was right; fuck what others thought.
    “I want you so much, Tim,” I said, fearlessly.
    “I want you more than you can understand. I’ve waited so long to be with you.”
    “Kiss me,” I demanded, tilting my face toward his. He took my mouth again, and it was just as amazing as the last. Moaning in his mouth, I whimpered with need. My hips tipped up, trying to touch his body with mine, but he had his body planked over me, like he didn’t want our bodies connected. Feeling disheartened, I pushed his shoulders away from me.
    “What’s wrong?”
    “You’re confusing me. You say you want me and after all this time we are together, but you’re moving your body away from mine.”
    He started to laugh a little with an embarrassed smile on his face. “Sweetie, I’m trying not to come. Just kissing you has got me fucked up. My dick is so hard, I know if he gets anywhere near your pussy, he’s going to shoot hard.”
    “Oh,” I said with a blush. I felt a little naïve. This was all new to me. Having sex never crossed my mind before with anyone else. Something about the guys I dated told me they would try to knock me up if I gave up the pussy. Will tried to pressure me several times, but I always stopped our make out sessions. Waiting felt like a burden and a relief at the same time.
    I didn’t want to tell him that I was a virgin. He waited this long, if he knew he might want to wait. I’ve been longing for him for as long as we’ve known each other. Waiting wasn’t in the cards for me.
    “No more waiting?” I asked. 
    “No more waiting. We’ve waited too long.” He leaned back on his heels, and lifted off his shirt. I let out a gasp at his perfection. Damn, he was gorgeous. His muscles were just as defined as when we trained. I thought maybe it was just my fantasies. My body tensed as my desire built easily at the sight before me. His body flexed as I watched him undo his belt. Something about the way the belt was pulled from his pants sent wicked thoughts through my body. It was nuts because I’d never done anything with a man before, but I’d dreamed of us.
    He bent down, slid his hand under my top and unsnapped my bra, then he
