I took her mouth with mine.
Then she pulled back. “Are you leaving? I know you love me, but that doesn’t change the logistics of our lives.”
I heard the scared note in her voice. The one born of the little girl learning that her parents were gone forever.
“I’ll have to take work trips, but I’ll always come back. To you. To home.”
As we kissed, she pressed her hands to my chest.
“You need to rest,” I murmured.
“I feel perfectly fine, Ambrose Langston.” Her fingers ran over my abs, and I hissed out a breath. “I’d really like to celebrate being alive and in love.” Her hand curled around my already hard cock.
I swallowed a groan. “Okay, but we’ll take it slow and gentle.”
Her smile was sexy and taunting. “No, we won’t.”
She sank to her knees, her hands pressing into my thighs. She sucked my cock into her mouth and drove me crazy.
“Fairy queen,” I gritted out. I slapped my hands to the tiles and thrust my hips forward.
She sucked me harder.
Now, I groaned, one hand tangling in her wet hair. But I wanted, no,needed, more. I needed all of her. I pulled her up.
“Ro—” Her voice was breathy.
I shut off the shower and boosted her into my arms. She wrapped her legs around my hips.
Striding out of the shower, I made it to the bedroom. I didn’t care that we were wet. Right now, there was only Tessa.
I was holding her, kissing her, needing her.
I was pure need.
Kissing her deeply, I lowered her to the bed. She clung to me, pushing up into my body. I felt a burning hunger deep in my bones. This woman was mine. Designed just for me.
She was the one I’d grow old with. The one I hadn’t known I was waiting for all my life.
Everything I’d endured, I would endure again if I knew I’d get her at the end.
Sliding a hand between her legs, I found her soaking. I stroked her and pushed her thighs wider apart. Then I gripped my cock, lined up, and was inside her with one thrust.
She gasped. I groaned.
Our gazes locked, connected. I pulled her leg around my hip and started moving. I kept it slow but deep. She undulated against me, her pale skin flushed.
Picking up speed, my breathing turned labored. She looked at me with pure love in her eyes and I felt the warmth of her.
Her hand gripped the back of my neck, and I saw and felt that she was close.
“Go over,” I murmured.
She did. She cried out my name, bucking against me. I watched the pleasure take her, felt her pussy clenching on my cock. Damn, she was pure beauty.
My own climax triggered. I thrust deep inside her, groaning as hot pleasure hit me. I shuddered, keeping her pinned to the bed beneath me.
Finally, I rolled onto the mattress. She snuggled close to me, half on top of my body.
