“If I had all the time in the world, the things I would do to you…” A growl comes from the back of his throat that rockets right to my center and sends tremors through my body. “I would have you screaming my name so loud that they could hear you all the way in Ocotillo Valley.”
I moan as quietly as I can and then murmur, “Papi…”
“How am I –” He hooks his fingers in my underwear and begins to work them down. “How am I supposed to be quiet when you call me that?”
I trace the curve of his ear lobe with my lips. “You like when I call you papi?”
“Fuck. Yes.” His words are clipped and strained.
I nudge my hips forward and feel the tip of him against my core. “Fill me up. Fill me up with your cock.”
Rex drops his mouth to my shoulder and clamps his teeth down to keep from crying out as he pushes himself into me.
“Yessss…” I am expanding, doubling, tripling, like the universe expands. Full of stars and planets and swaths of beautiful galaxy. I have been holding myself in for so many years. But with Rex, I am so, so large and magnificent.
Rex traps my pelvis against his, hands pressed to the small of my back.
I cling to him, my legs around his hips. And we move together. With every stroke of his cock, my skin gets hotter. I’m close to boiling over.
Where there would usually be moans and groans, there is panting and heavy breaths. Something about the restraint makes me even more feral. I’m unable to contain myself. I’m shaking. My hips, my legs, my arms.
“Feels… so good,” I strain with my mouth against the base of his throat.
Rex envelopes the back of my head with one of his broad hands and punctuates my body with every – single – thrust. It is harder to breathe with my face pressed against him which makes the pleasure even more intense.
Tears prick my eyes, it feels so good.
Because it’s not just sex for sex's sake.
It’s love. I can feel it every inch of my body and his. Every motion is rooted in love.
When I crest into the orgasm, the words come out. “I love you,” I cry. It’s no accident, not at all comical.
I want him to know at my most vulnerable, here in his arms, I still love him.
I didn’t just say it because we were in front of thousands of people. I said it because it is the complete and utter truth.
Rex spills into me moments later. I catch his groans with my mouth. He reverberates against me, his pleasure flooding from him and into me.
Though the heat is overwhelming, I want him as close as possible. I hold onto him and weep into his chest. “I’ve wanted to say that for so long…”
Rex kisses the top of my head, holding me while I cry. His heart beats against my cheek, matching the rhythm of each “I love you” that falls from his lips.
This is the new music of my life.
And I am so ready to dance.
Chapter 21
Rex
Six months later…
I stand outside of Leo’s school with my baseball cap pulled low over my forehead and dark sunglasses on. As usual, I try not to stand out.
However, since Isabella and I became an item, Ocotillo Valley has gotten used to my visits every six weeks. Not to mention all of the pictures of us circulating the internet from our tour antics this summer.
“Psst.”
