Mrs. Robin's Sons

anger in Noah’s voice that he felt. His response was a grunt; the memories of the evening were still too new and painful for him to talk about it.
“You know she meant what she said about us not being welcome there anymore.” Noah continued.
“Yeah, I do.” His leveled gaze met Noah’s. “And I don’t care. I love Mom, but I love Rylee more. She’s the best fucking thing that’s ever happened to me, and I’m not giving her up for anybody, including Mom.”

Rylee awoke cocooned within the warmth of Nick’s strong embrace. His fingers played with strands of her hair. She turned around so she could look into his face. “Are you okay?” she whispered.
“Yeah, I am.” Nick closed his eyes and sighed. He finally opened them and looked at Rylee again. The muted light in the room couldn’t hide the pain and regret she saw reflected in their depths.
“I’m sorry, angel.” Nick spoke quietly. “Sorry for —” “Shh” She interrupted, and placed a finger against his lips. “No more being sorry, no more being hurt tonight.”
Rylee replaced her finger with her mouth and kissed him. Her tongue caressed his lips before it delved deep inside. She poured all of the love she felt for him into the kiss, and she didn’t ease up until Nick began to moan.
“God, baby,” he breathed against her lips. “I want…”
“You got me,” Rylee assured him. “Anything you want. Anything.”
“I want forever.” His hazel eyes were dead serious, his voice sure.
Rylee smiled and blinked back tears that suddenly burned her eyes. “I guess that’s long enough.”
“Love you.” Nick kissed her again and eased her onto her back. His large body pressed her smaller one into the mattress.
Rylee automatically spread her legs and lifted her hips off the bed to grind against him.
When Nick reached for a condom on the dresser, she stopped him.
“You don’t need those.” She pulled his hand away. “Not anymore.”
“Are you sure?” He questioned, his expression hopeful.
Rylee smiled. “I’m positive.” She leaned up and kissed him softly. “Besides, I want to love you tonight.”
His shudder was her answer, and Rylee slowly slid underneath him. Her lips kissed a path down his body as she went, until his thick erection was directly above her face. Her tongue licked up the veined shaft, and her lips wrapped around the crown as she sucked him into her mouth.
“Oh, fuck baby…yeah.” Nick leaned forward and grabbed the headboard, his moans echoing through the room, and his hips thrust back and forth as he pushed into Rylee’s mouth. Rylee moaned around his length; her hands gripped his ass to pull him closer and encourage him to go deeper.
Nick roared her name when he came, and she could feel him jerk in her mouth as heat splashed against the back of her throat. Rylee continued to suck him through the spasms that wracked his body. When she released his semi-hard erection from her mouth, Nick rolled to the side and gathered her into his arms.
Rylee listened to the sounds of Nick’s steady breaths, long after he’d fallen into a deep sleep. Her thoughts were filled with flashbacks as Mrs. Robin’s words replayed over and over in her head and made her own rest impossible.
Each memory inflamed Rylee’s anger even more. If Mrs. Robin wanted to hate her, that was fine. Rylee didn’t give a shit about the other woman’s opinions of her. But she needed her ass kicked for the way she’d treated her sons tonight.
Rylee looked down at Nick’s sleeping form, his handsome face still marred by a slight frown that creased his forehead, and she knew just how deeply their mother’s words had hurt him and Noah. It made her want to march back down to the woman’s house and let her know exactly what she thought about a woman who would choose to alienate her children just because they weren’t living a life that she thought they should lead.
Rylee thought back to all of the things she’d done in her life that she was certain her parents didn’t agree with. Yet, in spite of that, she never doubted that no matter what happened, they always had and always would have her back.
That’s why it was unfathomable to her how a woman with two wonderful, loving, and hardworking sons, who absolutely adored her, could willingly push them away simply because she had a problem with who they were fucking.
Rylee sighed and smoothed the hair away from Nick’s forehead. No, his mother
definitely wasn’t a candidate for the Mother of the Year award. Rylee just hoped that the
woman hadn’t let her own narrow-minded beliefs and petty biases cause irreparable damage to her relationship with Nick and Noah.
The hazy light from the morning sunrise had begun to filter into the room by the time sleep finally caught up with her. Rylee’s last thoughts before she drifted into a restless slumber was that if Mrs. Robin was waiting for her to give up and walk away, she was going to be sorely disappointed, because Rylee wasn’t going anywhere. And, no matter what it took, Rylee was determined to prove to Mrs. Robin that she was wrong about her and the love she had for her sons.

Chapter Nineteen
As Nick’s car rolled to a stop outside of Mya and Tom’s lake house, Rylee could feel herself immediately relaxing. Her friends had purchased this piece of land in the private community of Lake Carroll a few years ago and built the house that was used as a weekend getaway. It was large enough to offer privacy, yet it still managed to remain cozy. And, it offered an amazing view of the lake.
It had become a tradition for Rylee and her friends to spend the Fourth of July here, and this year was no different. She loved coming to this place, spending time in the beauty and solitude of nature. Although she’d lived in large cities, Rylee was convinced that she was
