The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn

The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 141

~CLARISSA~

I watch Damon as he continues to suck on his fingers, tasting me. It was the sexiest thing I’d ever seen

in my life. His eyes were closed, and it looked like he was enjoying it.

I was angry that he wasn’t giving me what I wanted but seeing him do this has definitely dampened my

anger.

I attempted to get closer to him, but I heard Dante and Atticus talking, coming closer.

Damon’s eyes flashed open at their voices, and I almost fell on my a*s after seeing the darkness and

need in his eyes.

I knew it wouldn’t be long before Damon lost all control. He was hanging on by a thin thread. It would

soon burst, and when that happened, I had to be ready to accept him, or he would blame himself for

rushing into it.

Damon turns around and storms out of the front door before Atticus can see us in here all alone.

“Clarissa!” He says the second he walks back into the house and sees me. “Why are you here all

alone? Get into the water; I will get the beach ball.”

I’m glad he didn’t realize how flustered I was. He probably would have been more concerned if Damon

was still inside with me.

“And where is Damon?” Dante asks. “We’re all waiting for him to join.”

“He said something about going to the toilet.” I lie.

Before they can ask any more questions, I’m already out of the door. I was glad to see Dante in a better

mood today, however. He was actually smiling, and he hadn’t smiled since Anya died. He wasn’t

exactly smiling at Willow, but a smile was still good, even if it wasn’t directed at her.

I jumped into the water with Autumn and Willow right next to me.

“Finally,” Autumn says. “I was worried that you wouldn’t ever join the rest of us.”

I hug her, and she is still in my arms. “Thank you,” I whisper into her ear.

“For what?” She asks, confused.

I hadn’t told her what had happened between Damon and me last night or this morning. I never got the

chance to say to her Atticus was always by her side.

“Your plan worked,” I inform her. “He’s getting closer to me. He’s finally giving me what I want.”

Not everything but it still made me happy. My body still tingled from his touches and kisses. And

tonight, I couldn’t wait for more.

She chuckles, “You’re very welcome. As soon as we get some time alone, you must give me all the

details without leaving anything out.”

“Wow, wow, wow,” Griffin says as he sees us still hugging. “I don’t know what’s happening here, but I

love it.”

Autumn rolls her eyes and throws water onto him. “Keep your dirty thoughts to yourself.”

He grins, “I’m afraid that’s not something I can easily do.”

“I can’t have my wife to myself because of you,” Atticus says in an annoyed tone. “She talks about you

more than anyone else.”

“What can I say? I’m more interesting than you are.” I tease him.

“The only problem is that she chooses what to tell me about you.” He adds. “And conveniently leaves

things out.”

Autumn’s cheeks are red at his words. I’m also a little caught off-guard. I didn’t know how to respond to

that because there was still plenty that we were keeping from him. And it stayed that way for as long as

possible.

“What’s the conversation about?” Damon asks as he joins us.

“The secrets my wife has been keeping about Clarissa,” Atticus answers him without a second thought.

Damon pauses for a split second before acting unbothered.

“Can we talk about something else?” Autumn asks him. “We’ve been over this already.”

“I hope you don’t get upset with me when I start keeping secrets from you.” He growls before throwing

the beach ball into Dante’s face.

He pelts it right back, and Atticus catches it with ease.

Damon was the next one to catch it before throwing it toward Griffin.

“Aren’t the girls allowed to play also?” Autumn asks. “Are we just supposed to watch?”

We spent an hour playing against each other in the water before we all decided to take a break.

“Willow is loosening up a little bit,” Autumn whispers as we walk into the kitchen. “That’s good.”

“Dante is also,” I tell her. “He isn’t back to normal, but I saw him smile earlier.”

She sighs, “If only we’d taken a longer vacation. Two days are not enough to help them get closer to

each other.”

I agreed with her. Two days were not enough. It wasn’t even enough for Damon and me.

I wished I had more time with him. I was enjoying teasing him while everyone else remained

preoccupied.

Besides, our family needed this after last week. It was probably one of the worst times for us besides

when grandmother died.

“There are more articles about Willow,” Autumn snarls. “Why can’t they just leave her alone? It’s so

unfair what they’re saying about her. It’s not her fault that Dante married her. This was what Anya

wanted, and no one seems to care about that.”

“They think we’re lying.” I say. “They don’t seem to understand why Anya would want her sister to

marry Dante.”

“They’re all forgetting that Anya was planning to marry Damon. Why should they care if her sister

married Dante?” Autumn demands. “Somehow it was okay when Anya was with all three Fawn

brothers but when her sister marries one of them, it’s wrong.”

I also didn’t understand how their minds worked.

“It’s because they don’t know the truth about Anya.” I point out.

She sighs, “and they will never know the truth. Not when both Dante and Willow want it all to stay a

secret.”

We both stop talking when Willow walks into the kitchen, looking for us.

“Do you need my help with anything?” She asks sweetly.

“No.” I assure her. “I hope you’re enjoying our mini-vacation.”

She smiles but it looks totally fake.

“I am.”

I knew it was a lie and Autumn knew as well when she turns and gives me a knowing look.

I didn’t know what else to do to make this easier for her.

When Damon walks in and looks me up and down, all thoughts flew out of my head.

Tonight.

I couldn’t wait.
