I place my palm on his cheek. “And I want you in mine.”

When his lips meet mine, it’s with a sense of finality. Sealed with a kiss has nothing on how intense my feelings are right now. We might as well have said our vows to one another and combined our hearts for eternity.

I know without a doubt that I have found my soulmate.

He moves his lips from mine and stands, reaching out his hand to me. Jolts of electricity race through me as I place my hand in his, and he helps me up, only to pick me up and walk me back to the tent we have set up.

Once we’re both in, I waste no time in removing my own sweatshirt to reveal I never put on a bra. I want to make it very clear what my intentions are with him and leave him with zero thoughts that this might not happen.

Right now, I want nothing but him—every part of him.

“Liza,” he breathlessly whispers as he picks me up again and lying me down on my back like I’m completely weightless in his arms.

I’m quick to remove his shirt so I can feel his bare skin against mine.

As his lips trail kisses down my neck, I wrap my legs around him, pulling him closer to me, wanting any kind of friction I can get between my legs.

I’m more than greedy for him right now, and I can’t even begin to hide it. I’ve dreamed of this moment since our first kiss, and if I have to wait one more minute, I might actually explode.

He moves lower, and I whimper at the loss of him between my legs.

He kisses his way down my stomach and to the sweatpants I’m wearing. I gasp when his fingers move underneath them. I’m finally going to know what Eli Jones feels like inside of me.

My heart pounds as he slides them down my legs and tosses them to the side before removing his own. I see his cock for the first time and instantly clench my lady parts in anticipation. The size of him both excites me and—I’m not going to lie—scares me a little.

He reaches for a condom, securing it on himself before leaning back down to me, kissing me with so much passion before moving his hand between my legs, lightly sliding his fingers up and down my folds.

I appreciate him wanting to make sure I’m ready, but with the way I feel right now, I’m a little embarrassed, as I know I’m dripping in his hand.

“Are you sure?” he whispers in my ear.

“I’ve never wanted anything more in my entire life,” I say between pants.

He positions himself at my entrance, and with one very slow, very delicious motion, he pushes inside me for the first time.

We both gasp at the feeling our bodies provide each other.

It takes me a moment to relax and take him all in, and I’ll be forever grateful for him giving me this time to truly experience what I’m in for.

With a groan that escapes his lips, he slides out of me, only to push back in just as gently. Instantly, I wrap my legs around him and hold on tight, letting him know I’m okay.

My head falls back when he moves in and out again while a loud moan comes from so deep within me that I didn’t even know it was possible for it to come from my body. It’s like I’ve been completely taken over by him, by what my body was made to do and what I’ve waited for my entire life.

Sex has never been like this.

Ever.

It’s like I was made only for one man—him—and he fits so perfectly. We might as well die in this moment, knowing there’s never going to be anything better.

He lifts up and places his head on my forehead, continuing his movement, only picking up his pace slightly.

“My God, Liza. What are you doing to me?” he whispers, almost like it was more to himself rather than me, but I love that he said it out loud.

Knowing I’m doing the same to him that he’s doing to me pushes me even higher than I’ve ever imagined. It just proves even more that soulmates do exist, and we’ve found each other for good.

“I don’t know, but I never want this to end.”

“Never.” He kisses my lips. “This is forever. I promise.”
