Climb on My Stepfather (Ashley and Alex) novel Chapter 50

2: Lia.

“Lia...” he swallows hard, looking anywhere else but my face. | detect the stern warning in his tone, but | pay it no mind. “W-What are you doing?” “What does it look like I'm doing, hm?” | hum, grunting as | successfully take his tie off, then bat my lashes as | trail the silk down between my breasts, finally, finally getting his eyes there. | feel the heat emanating off him, a muscle jumping in his cheek when | arch my back a little. “I'm just having fun, Daddy,” | whisper seductively, dropping the tie and flattening my palm, riding it up the front of his perfumed, well-pressed suit. “You work so hard. You should burn steam sometimes. It'll be good for your health...make you less grumpy.” To God, I'm not lying. At all.

Tristan spends six out of the seven days of the week working his arse off.

The last day, Sunday, he spends it with Eric — and it's for a few hours only.

Afterwards, he locks himself in his private office for the rest of the day, while Eric is left with no option than to invite me over for a sleepover.

He has always been a constant in my life since he moved in right next to us.

His son is my best friend — one I'm so thankful for, and | care about the both of them even more than my own father. | see them as my one, true family.

“I'm not grumpy, Lia. And I'm fine. | really am,” he exhales, his jaw still clenched. “You shouldn't be standing so close to me...” his gaze falls to my hand on his chest. “And your hands...they shouldn't — ” He trails off with a groan when | pop the first button open, the sight of his bare, muscled chest making heat pool in between my legs. “Oops,” | say, blinking innocently. “Bet you feel relieved. How do you breathe in this shirt?

It's so tight. Too fitting. Too...perfect, even though I'm sure you'll look twice hotter wearing a T-shirt instead.” “You should stop this at once. Why do you always wear revealing clothes?
