Maybe killing people was his way of making it through.
Maybe I shouldn’t fault him for that.
He leaned down and kissed me, his hand still tenderly holding the side of my face. I felt warm. The kind of warmth that you couldn’t ever get from somewhere else. No fire would set me ablaze like his touch did, and I knew it.
He slowly pushed inside of me, stretching me to the point that I felt completely full. It was so amazing and I wanted more.
“Silas,” I breathed out his name and couldn’t keep my eyes from closing.
“I know,” he whispered against my neck. “I feel it too.”
And I died.
Not really, but holy shit, I couldn’t explain the things that shot through my body. I didn’t even want to try to. I just wanted it to last forever.
His thrusts were slow and controlled, but the look in his eyes was wild once I was finally able to force my lids open to see him. There was something about the eye contact that caused my skin to prickle in a good way.
I rose higher and higher, my body shaking so hard I had no control over it.
My legs wrapped around him tighter like I was trying to get him as deep as he could possibly be. I didn’t want even a breath of space between our bodies.
His ass cheeks were firm in my hands as I pulled him into me with every thrust. His lips met mine as I felt his pace start to stutter like he couldn’t control it anymore.
I couldn’t stop the shaking in my body. It vibrated every inch of me and I bit my lip in an attempt to hold off my orgasm. But it was no use, not with the way he was rocking his hips against me and brushing my clit over and over.
“Silas,” I called out, breaking our kiss. I didn’t want to, but it couldn’t be helped.
“Shit, Jessica. Fuck, you feel so amazing. Come with me.” His words were low and raw. I breathed them in desperately.
Then we crashed together, the world shattering around me as he emptied himself inside of me.
His lips were on mine and he swallowed down my moans. I clung to him, my nails digging into his back and I couldn’t seem to unlatch myself from his body.
I never knew it could feel like this.
And all I could think was that everything was working out the way it was supposed to.
Yeah, I wasn’t giving this up any time soon.

Silas
The next morning I woke up naked with Jessica in my arms. It was the perfect way to start the day, if you asked me.
Yeah, this was the life.
The one that I’d been chasing all along and hadn’t even realized it.
I had it now, but the question was….
How the hell was I going to keep it?
Jessica was still sound asleep on my chest and I figured I had a little time to work out the answer to that question.
Except, deep down, I already knew the answer.
There was a debt to be paid. One that I didn’t mind paying so much now. I might not have considered it before Jessica came back into my life. In fact, I probably would have tried to fight it. But now I was ready. And I knew it was the right thing to do for all parties involved.
