91. Home
When Seamus got arrested, Charlotte was a total mess. But after he called her, she calmed down for a little while deep inside she still felt some uncertainty over her future husband.
As Seamus predicted, her dad watched how Charlotte was acting all though in front of him. And Cormac felt bad when he wasn’t able to help her. He could see on her face that she was falling apart on the inside.
Seamus’s parents arrived at the house a couple of hours after they did and it was a good thing because her dad was not getting through to her.
“Come on my beautiful child, let’s leave them to talk it over while you and I can make some cookies and mini sandwiches for their afternoon tea. Tell me, how does your father drink his tea?”
“Um, hot? I usually see him drinking coffee.”
Charlotte looked unsure but Erin just smiled at her and put her hand on the crook of her arm as she ushered Charlotte to the spacious kitchen.
“That’s alright, dear. Come, help me prepare.” Erin patted her cheek warmly and led her to the front of the cupboard before passing her the beautiful delicate tea set that Charlotte didn’t even know Seamus owned.
Marjorie was there but Erin shook her head at her. “We won’t be needing you in the kitchen, I’m keeping Charlotte busy with tea. Maybe you could run other errands and help us later for dinner?”
Marjorie smiled, nodded, and excused herself from the kitchen. Moments later Erin got busy explaining to Charlotte what they were going to be making. The simple activity of making tea and snacks for all of them was nice. Their togetherness continued as they have a nice small conversation about daily occurrences, Charlotte’s love of ballet, and even the weather. Later, Erin ushered her back to the kitchen to prepare
dinner. Marjorie helped them and for a couple of hours, Charlotte managed to keep her mind off Seamus.
Still, when night came, Charlotte was quietly crying on the bed that she shared with Seamus. She held his pillow, resting her cheek and her tears sipped into it until she finally falls asleep.
*****
Charlotte had little sleep the day before, Seamus’s parents and her dad helped keep her mind off Seamus. But when morning arrived she was back to being agitated. Her nerves were all over the place and she kept on looking at the front door anticipating his arrival.
“Seamus!” Charlotte ran to her lover but stopped in her tracks seconds after she saw his bandaged nose bridge and swollen right eye.
“Hey, I’m okay. Just a bit bruised, but nothing that couldn’t be fixed with your hug. Come here.” He opened his arms and she carefully hugged him. Seamus took in her floral scent, the soft contour of her body, and felt like he was finally home.
“Wow, you’ve been there less than twenty-four hours and have battle wounds already. You must have really pissed off the wrong man.” Cormac put his hand on his arm, welcoming him home. “Anyway, your mom is in the kitchen. They stayed the night and she’s been feeding us constantly.” He chuckled and told his best friend, Darren Braddock that his wife had been a very good companion to Charlotte and he really appreciate it.
Darren slapped the man’s shoulder and told him that he’s family now and it’s what family do for each other. “Now, let us retreat to the home office in a couple of hours. I’ll give you kids some private time to catch up while Cormac here will accompany me for coffee.” His smile spread with a hint of amusement looking at the now flustered Charlotte who still has her hands on Seamus’s waist.
“Charlotte please take Seamus to Erin first, and tell Marjorie to send our coffees to the back terrace?”
“Yes Dad,” Charlotte replied swiftly.
“My son is going to be so spoiled. Erin hadn’t even seen him. Come, let the women dote on Seamus while we talk about your last business partner and his correlation to the Chief of police.” Charlotte heard Seamus’s dad says to hers. She could imagine how both men relaxed on the sofa as her dad started telling him about how he found out that the Chief of Police was embezzling retirement funds. Yes. She heard a glimpse of the story last night and how it was all tangled up with Seamus and from there her future husband became an easy target for the framing. Just as her dad did.
Charlotte realized yesterday that Darren had some of the details, but her dad managed to fill in some important information about the funds. She saw how Darren had made notes on his phone most likely to discuss with Seamus and their lawyers afterward.
“How do you feel?” She asked after they met with his mom and now they were in the confinement of their bedroom. Charlotte laid the palm of her hand on his face and gently caressed his battered feature.
“Better, now that I have you in my arms,” Seamus locked his gaze on hers and stepped closer to assure her that he was not going anywhere. He leaned down and kissed her, and he felt her tense body relax further in his hold.
“I don’t like sleeping alone in our bed.”
“You won’t tonight.” He rested his big hands on her ass, pulled her tight to his body, pushed his crotch, and showed her his hardening member.
“Seamus, I think we should take it slow tonight.”
The man laughed sexily telling her that it was his nose that was broken but his dick was functioning. “And it needs some tender loving care.” He cut in. She laughed and slapped his chest adorably. Her playful side turned sensual in mere seconds when he needed her now more than ever.
They will have their time together before dinner and Seamus didn’t care if their parents can see right through them. He needed her to feel safe. He needed her to express his love and assured his beautiful ballerina that he was not going anywhere anytime soon and that everything will be okay.
“So beautiful,” he praised as he trail kisses to the crook of her neck up to her cheek then have her mouth as if he had been starving for her lips for months. Her hands roamed his chest greedily and she whimpered when he slipped his hands to the waistband of her jeans, cupping her sexy butt cheeks.
“Seamus,”
“I know my love, I’ll take care of you,” he expertly unbuttoned her jeans and took her top off, and throw them to the corner armchair. He winced when she pressed her body right where it hurts. He was on painkillers, but he was still tender on his stomach. Charlotte quickly pulled away and took off his shirt and she gasped when she sees the prominent bruise.
“Babe, it’s fine. The doctor said so. My dad was there, you can double-check.” He smirked knowing that she will most definitely do that later. And he loves her more because of it. Never had he ever had a partner that loves him so fiercely.
“Um…”
Her hesitation was gone the moment he started kissing her and gently lying her on their bed. He stripped naked and she didn’t have time to worry about his condition when his erection was pressed against her lace panties. She shuddered and moaned his name when he tugged her panties off and slipped inside her. She was wet and she clenched him hard. They both moaned louder and he rested her legs on his shoulders and thrust deeper inside her.
Her legs trembled from the sheer intensity of his thrusts, in and out, each time taking her higher than before. She was breathless when he pounded her, keeping his pace until he was getting closer and she was begging him for more. When they both finally climaxed she hold on to him like he was her breath of fresh air. He leaned down and kissed her again, this time pulling her bra and licking her nipples, all while she was coming down from her high.
They stayed in bed for a while longer until his cock softened and he pulled out and took off the condom she didn’t notice before.
“I love you,” she pressed her lips on his before he said that he loves her too.
They didn’t come down and join their parents until dinner time. They decided to give Seamus and Charlotte more time knowing that she needed him to comfort her. When they did sit down for dinner Charlotte expressed that she was not happy that he was on house arrest. She was telling everyone that there was still a chance that Seamus could get back to being arrested.
“He might think himself as street smart, but the Chief didn’t know that we are the street.” Darren pressed his opinion on Charlotte. He looked mighty confident in his son’s situation and it did make Charlotte feel much better. Because of that l, Seamus looked at his dad and nodded telling him with his eyes that he thanked him for everything.
