Laughing, Sophie grabbed Asher and pulled himdirectly into her bedroom. Smiling against his mouth as he kissedher again in the doorway, she demanded, “I’m not hiding thisanymore.”
Dragging her through to his bedroom, despiteher protests, he added, “Agreed. However, your bedroom is directlyover my parent’s, and I want to hear just how loud I can make youcall out my name.”
It had been unbearably difficult to waituntil the bride and groom left the wedding. After throwingbirdseed, cheering, and doing a cursory initial clean-up, Paul hadwaved them off when Asher had attempted to stay and help. “We gotthis. You two get home. You’ve had a rough couple of days. I’m realsorry to hear about Jack.”
“Me too. Thanks, Dad.” At the mention of it,Asher’s features looked drawn as he thought about his trip to SanDiego. Rubbing the exhaustion from his eyes, he hadn’t argued whenSophie dragged him out to his borrowed car. Knowing he’d be wipedout after the last few days, she’d caught a ride to the weddingwith his parents, so she could drive him home early, if needed.
Lifting her into his arms, he’d clearlycaught his second wind as soon as they got upstairs. So much hadled up to this moment. Glad they waited; Sophie was ready to takethe next step. Call her old fashioned, but knowing he loved hermade this moment that much more miraculous.
Setting her down in front of the bed, he wastearing off his suit jacket and kicking off his shoes before shecould even catch her balance, then moved on to getting her clothesoff as quickly as possible. Struggling with her zipper to slide thedress off, he laughed out loud. “What the hell? I had this off ofyou so easily, what, a week ago? I feel like a green, virgingroom.”
Normally remarkably adept with his hands, hisclumsiness was endearing. Any other time, Sophie would have foundit humorous. Maybe she did, but more, she was thrilled he was asnervous as she was.
Reaching behind her, Sophie slid the zipperdown and let the gown pool at her feet. Down to her panties andheels again, he groaned in response. Eager, she reached for thewaistband of his pants.
He stilled her hands, “Slow down. I’m notgoing to make it very long as it is.” Looking her up and down, thehunger in his eyes was enough to drive her over the edge. It’s notlike they hadn’t explored every inch of each other’s bodiesalready, but tonight was different.
Reaching behind her, he unhooked her overlyhelpful strapless bra and tossed it across the room. “I hate thatbra. You have magnificent breasts.” In stark punctuation, hewrapped his hands around each perfect breast and pulled one deeplyinto his mouth.
Gasping, the sensation rocketed like anelectric current through her entire body. Writhing in his arms,sensation scorched from deep in her core. Urging him on, she buriedher hand in his hair, gripping him tight to let him know she wasclose.
Gliding down across her sensitized skin, hishand reached her center and cupped her soft curls. Tantalizing,stroking her core, he brought her to the edge. Already, he knew herso well, knew exactly how to drive her wild.
“Yes,” she chanted breathlessly, crying outfor more as her climax neared, letting him know how he affectedher.
Shifting his body downward, he trailed histongue along her abdomen, circling her navel before reaching hercore. As he had that day in the dressing room, he grasped her hipsand pulled her against his waiting mouth. Licking, sucking, velvetyheat stroking her slick nub, an eruption of sensation tore throughher.
Already there, her veins rapidly filled withmolten lava. She called out his name, unable to contain thecrushing orgasm. Hand still gripped in his hair to steady herself,she rode wave upon wave of pleasure that built inside of her untilher vision blurred and her legs couldn’t hold her up anylonger.
Supporting her, grinning with pure, primalmasculine ego, he scooped her in his arms and tossed her onto thebed. Before her sighs even began to diminish, he’d ditched the lastof his clothes and was sheathed in protection. Propelling theorgasm that still tremored through her, he drove into her with adynamic thrust.
Exhilaration, desire, and love consumed heras he buried into her. They fit so perfectly; she knew he was itfor her.
Carefully building, he tried to steady hismovements.
Climbing higher and higher in the deliriouspleasure that resonated through her, she wouldn’t let him slow.Tightening around his thick, pistoning cock, she cried out asorgasm overtook her.
As she rode the crest of bliss, she dug herfingertips into his shoulders, urging him faster. Wild, he drilledon. Coming fast and hard, powerful and vital, he climaxed with her,letting out a rough groan as both collapsed, lost in a haze ofeuphoria.

Drained, exhilarated, Asher collapsed atopher. His muscles had turned to heavy lead, yet he soared likeIcarus. Pounding in his chest, his heart clenched with unfamiliaremotion. He’d known they were more than compatible, but this wassomething record-breakingly miraculous.
Taking her with him, he rolled onto his back,so her head rested on his shoulder. His hand lightly trailed alongher arm as they caught their breath together. From the moment she’dcocked her hip out and taunted him with that damn bolt that he’dlost in his engine, he’d been a fucking goner and had known itwould be different with Sophie.
Couldn’t even count the number of women he’dbeen with before, but none could hold a candle to Sophie in or outof the sack. Nor would there ever be anyone else for him. Ever. Hisheart was well and truly hers.
“Confirmed. You have made me a noisyorgasmer,” she breathlessly proclaimed. “I see why you moved us toyour room.”
A satisfied chuckle rumbled through hischest, jostling her head on his shoulder. He wanted to counter witha quippy response but was too busy feeling quite pleased with hisdiscoveries. As much as he hated to admit it, he’d never been soanxious about a partner’s response before. Historically, he’d beenmore focused on getting a quick, yet satisfying, bang and gettingthe hell out of there.
“You might be right. We’d better test thisout, maybe run a few trials. You could build a spreadsheet for us.”He traced his hand along her side and splayed his hand around herwaist.
“If we’re running a complete data analysis,I’m game as long as there’s a spreadsheet involved. No controlgroups, though.” She lifted her head off his chest and raised aneyebrow at him.
He knew that she knew that he was all-in whenit came to their relationship. But did she know exactly what thatmeant? “Sophie, I love you so much. You’re the only one for me.I’ve been waiting for you a long fucking time.”
He craved her again, cock already thickening.“Just so you know, I’ve never not used a condom. Protecting you; Ijust didn’t know it until recently. Sappy as that sounds, I’mfeeling rather poetic at the moment.”
