“Maybe.”

“That word will not get you what you want.”

The fiery gleam in her eyes lit me up inside. So did the sight of her on the verge of breaking apart. Tousled hair, raspy breaths, skin shining with sweat. An absolute gorgeous fucking mess.

Holding back tortured me just as much but my darker side loved this push and pull.

“Beg.” I thrust my hips enough to tease her. She clutched onto my shoulders, writhing from the denial.

“Oh my God. Let me, please.”

“Let you what?”

“Come. Please, let me come.”

I shook my head, grinding against her. “You can do so much better than that.”

Her legs tightened around my thighs. She grabbed a handful of my hair and pulled to the point of delicious pain. “I need…please.”

I stroked my tongue along her lower lip, slowly thrusting my cock in and out. “You need what?”

She groaned in frustration. “You…I need you…Xavier,” she nearly sobbed. “Please let me come.”

“That’s my girl.” I plunged deep inside her. She wanted rough, she’s going to get fucking rough.

In and out. Harder and faster each time I staked my claim. Victoria’s moans turned into squeals of ecstasy. I fucked her like a man possessed. A man who’d been deprived of how it feels to be inside a woman. When the pressure started building at the base of my spine, I groaned.

I slowed a little, just to prolong what was about to happen.

Victoria’s nails dug into my ass, sending shockwaves through me. I reached between us to rub her clit, giving her the release she so clearly deserved.

“Come for me, love.”

“Xavier.” She bit down on my lower lip. Shit, that hurt in the best way. “Harder. Please.”

The sound of her husky demand fueled me.

My mind went blank. I rubbed her clit faster, driving into her not for pleasure alone, but for survival. For my own selfish needs.

Watching her fall apart in front of me was sexy as hell. Her uninhibited screams, her body trembling, her eyelids fluttering shut. The way she held onto me so tight, like she’d never let go.

“Fuck,” I yelled, surrendering to the electricity coursing through my body. I came so hard I had to press myself against her to remain standing.

My vision blurred. My hips jerked and thrusted. My cock throbbed, viciously pumping cum in a never-ending stream.

This had to be the most intense orgasm I’ve ever experienced.

Everything went hazy and quiet.

The first thing I became aware of was how gently Victoria ran her fingers through my hair. I didn’t remember burying my face in her neck but since I was there, I kissed her glistening skin, breathing hard as my muscles started to loosen and relax. All the tension I’d shoved down the last few months dissipated. Something inside me rebalanced itself.

“Hey,” she whispered, still stroking my hair. “You alright?”

I looked at her. “Never better. You?”

“Yeah, I’m…wow.” She had a small, dream-like smile.

So beautiful.
