Sex And Candy Ch 03

The house was quiet after Aunt Adelle left. It took a long time to convince her that we didn't need her to stay. She was very insistent, saying that we were still going through the bereavement process and one never knew when the grief might overcome him or her. I was glad that Daddy convinced her to leave; I was bursting with sexual tension and I didn't think I'd be able to wait another minute much less another day. I showered, put on some comfortable pajamas and went downstairs to find him.

Daddy was standing in the doorway that led out onto the back patio, a glass in his hand. I stopped at the bar to make a drink for myself, opting for ice and Pepsi mixed with my Jim Beam. I brought the bottle over to where he stood and poured a couple of shots into his rocks glass. He took a sip, still looking out across the lake and I sat on the ottoman, gazing up at him while I sipped my drink.

"You'll have to be getting back to school soon." I didn't know what to say to that. In two days, I'd have to be back on campus and my life would be thrown into a whirlwind, trying to catch up with the week's worth of work I'd missed. "You

are

going back to school, right?"

"I guess so."

"You

guess

so?" He turned and looked at me. "Don't waste your future on me."

"What are you talking about?"

"Loryn, I know you better than you know yourself. I know exactly what you're thinking. You're thinking about quitting school and coming back here to take care of me."

My mouth hung open. He was right. I couldn't say anything in rebuttal and I took another swallow of my drink. "What am I supposed to do, Daddy?"

"You go back to school, get your degree and come back here to run the business with me."

"What about us?"

He gave the outdoors one last look and closed the door, turning to me. "I've been doing a lot of thinking about that." I watched him move into the den and I locked the outer door, following him inside the house. "I love you, Loryn, but I can't do this to your life. One day, you'll meet someone who will fulfill all your fantasies and become the love of your life and I … " He took a swallow of the straight alcohol and winced afterward. "It would break my heart to ruin that for you."

"I don't want that, Daddy. I've never wanted to be with anything else. Why do you think I haven't dated very much? It's taken me a long time to admit it but I don't just love you; I'm

in

love with you." I took a breath, wiping my eyes. "Am I just supposed to stop?"

He shook his head sadly. "I don't have all the answers, honey, but I know the truth of how I feel about you and it's wrong."

"It's wrong to love your daughter?" I could barely breathe, the pain in my heart was so strong.

"In this case, yes."

I couldn't take any more. I turned and ran to my bedroom, threw myself across the bed and cried myself to sleep.

The first thing I felt was cool air on my breasts and then the warmth of a wet mouth, its tongue sliding all around the nipple and making it harden. I moaned at the delicious feeling, struggling to wake up and weaving my fingers through his hair. Tears of joy wet my cheeks and his lips made short work of drying them, his breath soft on my skin.

"I'm sorry." He whispered, his voice low and quiet. "I just couldn't stay away."

"Nothing to be sorry about, Daddy. This is where you belong."

Our mouths found each others in the darkness and I completely submitted myself to him. He laid his body on top of mine and I moaned, letting my hands roam over his bare back. Muscles moved under my fingers, covered by hot skin and springy hair, the same hair that covered his chest and now rubbed against my nipples. He broke the kiss, pulling up to look into my eyes but it was too dark.

"Wait a minute." He left the bed, walked over to the double windows and pulled the curtains open, bathing my room in moonlight reflected off the lake below. The effect was breathtaking and when his eyes met mine, I knew he felt it, too. "I want to see every bit of you, Loryn. I don't want to miss a single inch."

My heart jumped and I moved to the window, taking one of his hands and placing it on my breast while pulling his mouth down to mine. "Then let's start here."
