Page 65 of Lost in You

I kiss every inch of her as I remove her clothes, aching to bring her pleasure. She allowed me past the walls she’d built, and I want to do the same for her.

She stiffens nervously as I lower my face to the apex of her thighs. I sit up, my knees on the bed, and put one of her legs over my shoulder, kissing her calf.

“Don’t be nervous,” I murmur, running my hand from her ankle, up her calf, to her thigh.

She meets my gaze. “I feel like...in Alaska, I was a different person. Uninhibited. With nothing to lose. But in my own bedroom, I’m the person I’ve always been.”

Moving my free hand between her legs, I slowly run the backs of my fingers up and down the seam of her pussy. She gasps and closes her eyes.

“You’ll never lose me, Trin. I know you. I know your body and I want you more than any other woman on this planet.”

I put a finger inside her and she moans. My cock is straining in my jeans, my fantasies about being inside her finally on the verge of coming true. When I circle her clit with my thumb, she bites her lip and moans again.

“Open your eyes, gorgeous.” I put my thumb in my mouth and thoroughly wet it, then return it to her clit.

Her eyes fly open as I circle it, her lips parting as she meets my gaze. This is one of my favorite things about her. She starts off shy, but once I get her turned on, she forgets all her inhibitions and gives herself over to me.

“Not from this,” she pants, scooting back slightly. “I want to come when you’re inside me.”

I move from the bed, enjoying the way she watches me as I pull off my shirt and unbutton my jeans. I want this with every cell of my body. I never thought I could feel the sense of rightness I have with her.

I put a condom on, hoping I don’t suck at this since it’s been so long. But when I slide inside her and we both groan, all my fears and insecurities disappear.

She puts her arms around my back, pulling me down closer, and I drive my hips into hers. Her little moans of pleasure are almost too much. I want to stretch it out for as long as possible and pound into her as hard as I can, both at the same time.

“Feels so good, Linc,” she says in my ear. “Please don’t stop. I want to be the only woman you come inside of.”

“Oh, fuck.”

It’s all I can do to hold on as she grinds her hips up into mine, working herself against me in time to every thrust. The second she arches her back and moans loudly, I bury myself in her, not stopping even as I come. I don’t want to cut her orgasm short.

“I’ve got some work to do on longevity,” I say as I move off her. “Sorry about that.”

She laughs lightly. “Stop it. We both came and seeing as it’s been nine years for you, you did amazing.”

I kiss her. “It’ll be better next time. And even better the time after that.”

“You’ve never once disappointed me in bed. You’re the best I’ve ever had by miles, and you know it.”

I lean up on an elbow, running my fingertips over her rounded breasts and perfectly pink nipples. “The best, huh? Maybe we should discuss that further.”

She gives me a gentle shove on the shoulder. “I’ve told you that many times. And I’m not even hurt that you’ve never said it to me.”

“Haven’t I?” I think about it.

She waves a hand. “No, it’s fine. I’m sure, as a hockey player, you’ve been with women who have sucked thousands of dicks. They’re pro level.”

I put my hand on her cheek and gently move her face until our eyes meet. “You’re the only woman I’ve ever been in love with like this, Trin. The only one I’ve ever been able to see myself with forever. I want you and only you.”

Her gaze softens. “You haven’t let on any of this when we’ve talked on the phone and texted. I’m shocked, to be honest with you. I mean, very pleasantly shocked, but...shocked.”

“I needed time to figure things out. I didn’t plan to retire for another two or three years, and I didn’t want to ask you to move unless I knew I could give you everything.”

She smiles. “And now you can move to Chicago. I didn’t think any of this was even an option until you knocked on my door, so I know I might seem a little...dazed. But I feel it, too. I knew I was in love with you before we got rescued. A part of me didn’t want to leave, crazy as it sounds.”

“Not crazy at all.”

“I can’t wait to introduce you to my coworkers and friends. You’re going to love my neighbor Rina. I know my apartment is really small, but the cabin was smaller and we were happy there. Do you want to move in?”
