Forbidden Innocence (Book #3)

Chapter 24

Lilac's P.O.V

I didn't bother with undergarments when I put on my nightgown, nor did I care about the fact that it's thin and practically transparent. All I care about is Andrea.

"Let it go, Lilac. I love you, not her!" He reassures me as he watches me sit at the desk in our room while he gently rubs Lucy's back.

She couldn't fall asleep, so Landon took her into our room. She's fast asleep on her stomach now.

My fingers are drumming on my stomach as I try to focus on the computer in front of my face.

Laughing coldly, I begin to type. "She's skinny, pretty, and not a moody bitch. You should just go on head and leave me right now," I mutter under my breath.

Anger courses through my veins as I think of how she touched his shoulder, forcing him out of his conversation with me so they could catch up.

Breathe, I think calmly.

A growl leaves Landon. "Skinny? Pretty? Moody?" He reiterates. "Lilac, you're pregnant! I love you the way you are, baby and all," He says without any hesitation.

Huffing, I slam my computer closed and stomp over to him. "You're just saying that," I growl.

He stands up with Lucy in his arms. "Let me go put her in bed. You're going to get into your pretty, little skull that you're beautiful," He says before walking out.

Confusions laces through me until he walks back into the room, his eyes bright and golden. "What are you going to-" A squeal leaves me as he picks me up and throws me on the bed.

His nose nudges my thigh, making me gasp and grab his head in my hands. "I don't feel like having sex," I whine.

Growling, he nudges my thigh with his nose again. "We're not having sex," He replies gruffly.

My eyebrows furrow as I feel his hands slowly pushing my night gown up and over my head. Once that's off, I'm on complete display to him, my pert, hard nipples signifying my arousal.

"Landon, what-"

He shushes me while placing my arms above my head, bound together by his hand. His other hands pushes open my legs, allowing him to climb between them.

Now I'm really exposed. There's not a square inch of my body that he hasn't seen yet.

Soft lips find their way to my stomach, kissing and brushing over the bump before moving on to my neck.

"Say you're beautiful," He commands me in a deep, sexy voice.

Hesitantly, I open my mouth. "I'm... b-beautiful." I look away as tears burn my eyes.

Next thing I know, he gently bites my hard nipple, his golden eyes staring into my eyes.

I scream in a mix of pain and pleasure. "Landon!" I hiss out.

He runs his hands over my body. "Why don't you think you're beautiful? Like I said, I'd take you over Andrea any day," He whispers in my ear.

Running my thumb over his cheek, I shrug. "I don't know! I've never been insecure during one of my pregnancies before," I reply in a hoarse voice.

Landon rolls his shoulders. "What could I do to convince you you're beautiful?"

I ponder the question, genuinely hoping that, by the end of the night, I'll be convinced that I'm beautiful. "Pledge your loyalty to me, tell me how much I turn you on, kiss my body like we're about to make love," I force out while blushing.
