Blissfully in Love (Blissful, #2) by Red Phoenix Page B

began
stripping off her clothes. It would ease the guilt of being
unfaithful.
    Ryan pulled her to him, kissing her firmly
on the lips. “ My Jenny,” he growled as he kissed her neck
and cradled her breasts in both hands. He worshipped her breasts.
Jenny threw her head back and let him suckle them. It was one thing
that Ryan really dug and she appreciated his attention.
    Sadly, the way he handled foreplay reminded
her of a business transaction. It was quick and to the point, never
lasting long enough. Soon Ryan was pushing her against the bed with
his body weight. She fell back onto it giving into his need -
wanting to feel connected to him again, needing to feel that
this was the right thing for her.
    Ryan thrust his hard shaft into her without
any undue ceremony. He grabbed her hips and began stroking her with
his lengthy cock. “I love you, Jenny. Nothing else matters.” Ryan
was staking his claim after the affair. She instinctually
understood that this was his way of preserving his manhood. She
opened herself to him and allowed Ryan deep inside her.
    He fucked her for literally an hour. She was
tempted to play with her clit to help herself come, but doing
something new would only highlight the fact she had been with
another man. She resisted the urge, letting Ryan have his way with
her. She could tell he was proud of himself for lasting so long but
in reality, her insides were sore by the time he finally grunted
out his climax. “This is for you!” he cried, as his dick rammed
into her forcefully to finish off the session.
    She echoed his cry in a pretend orgasm. “Oh
Rye, yes, yes, yes!” She knew he wouldn’t be satisfied unless he
pleased her and after an hour, all she wanted was rest. Afterwards,
she curled up in a ball on the side of the bed with tears in her
eyes. This was what she had signed up for - a good man and minimal
pleasure. Until Dan, she didn’t realize it could be any other
way.
    The next morning she tried to contact Dan
from her office. He didn’t answer his cell or his work phone. She
called throughout the day, but it appeared he had cut off all
contact from her. After a week of trying to reach him, she finally
gave up. Either Kelly had instructed him not to have anything to do
with her or Dan hadn’t forgiven her for leaving him behind.
    The unresolved feelings she had for the man
haunted her constantly. She tried to continue forward with Ryan,
but everything felt different. She still loved Rye, but Jenny
realized that she had never been in love with him.
    She was completely and utterly in love with
Dan. Just thinking about him gave her butterflies. She longed to
hear his deep voice, to feel his warm caresses, to smell his musky
scent. Everything about him was desirable and perfect. To be away
from that, to be forced to live life without his presence was like
a partial death sentence. She knew she would never be whole
again.
    After another quiet dinner, Ryan looked at
her sympathetically. “What’s wrong, Boo?”
    She had been thinking of Dan and glanced at
him, her cheeks burning with guilt. “Nothing.”
    “Don’t tell me ‘nothing’. I can see it in
your eyes. You’re clearly suffering.”
    “It’s not important.”
    “It’s important if it is causing you
pain.”
    Jenny sighed heavily. “You don’t want to
hear my thoughts, trust me.”
    He put his fork down. “Are you thinking of
Dan?”
    Tears came to her eyes when she whispered,
“Yes.”
    “I talked to him today,” Ryan announced as
he got up from the table and cleared away the dishes. Jenny tried
to hide her interest, but he saw right through her. “Yes, Dan seems
to be as miserable as you are.”
    “Oh,” she murmured, both happy and upset to
hear that he was suffering, too.
    “Kelly dumped him that day at the cabin.
He’s been staying with a coworker while he tries to find a place,
but you know how that is. Cheap apartments are impossible to come
by in this city, especially on short notice.”
    Jenny gazed
