We both gasped breathlessly as he slid inside, awakening that pure sensation I couldn’t get enough of. I stretched around him, shuddering the moment that connection was complete. My arms draped around the back of his neck, and I made sure to press my body tightly against his.
I didn’t move at first as he filled me completely, allowing us to both bask in that feeling. There was something so undeniably perfect about it, and I just couldn’t get enough.
But as Sebastian’s hands roamed and his grip became slightly more demanding, I knew I couldn’t deny him of it any longer.
Using his shoulders as leverage, I lifted my hips, rolling into him. My eyes fluttered shut at the dizzying feeling as I took control.
Arms tightly secured around me, Sebastian buried his moans into my collarbone before he looked up at me, meeting my gaze.
As I pressed my forehead against his and continued moving above him, I could see the depth of love and adoration in his eyes, which made my heart squeeze. He was so captivating, and I couldn’t help but want him more and more.
He let go of a shuddering breath as his hands moved me, more so as a guide than as a force, encouraging even more bliss to be exchanged between us. At this, his eyes shut again, and he maintained that tight grip on me.
I pulled my bottom lip in between my teeth as I rode out that incredible pleasure, invigorated from my position yet able to feel every ounce of his pure dedication to me.
It was all so much to take in, yet I found myself craving more and demanding more as my hips took over.
Whether it was the position or the overwhelming notion of being reunited again, Sebastian’s breaths were already faltering as his hips came up in messy bucks, drawing even more intense shockwaves through us both.
Moaning and getting lost in it, I didn’t waver. Instead, I let that passion guide me as I moved above him again and again, rolling my hips and claiming his lap as my personal throne.
Everything about it made my skin feel like it was on fire, yet I couldn’t get enough.
Resolve crumbling, Sebastian’s arms squeezed slightly tighter around my back as he panted against my neck, straining more and more as it went on. I could tell he was close, and the thought alone was enough to quicken my pace even more.
I cradled his face as I kissed him hard, eyes closed as that pressure mounted, and the tightening of my lower stomach signified that nearing precipice. Too eager to let the moment pass, I clenched around him and guided us through it, allowing Sebastian to feel every second of that ravenous chokehold I had on him.
With a whimper as that pleasure crashed into me, I moaned into his mouth, muffling the sounds while his fingers flexed against my skin, and his hips stuttered before he came undone completely.
Reaching our limit together, that mounting pressure snapped, and we both crashed into a state of bliss while we held one another close, shivering and shuddering through it.
Breaking this kiss to press his head against my neck, Sebastian panted and gently squeezed my back.
I leaned my head against him as I regained my composure little by little, refusing to move from that spot yet. Instead, I gently ran my fingers through his hair and scratched his scalp.
Eventually, Sebastian swallowed harshly and pulled back enough to gaze into my eyes as he put a hand against my belly, which was beginning to grow. His brown ones were soft with nothing short of adoration.
“This is how things were always meant to be,” he murmured, gently caressing my stomach as he made that connection with our growing child. “I couldn’t wish for anything else…I have everything I need right here.”
Touched by his words and the deeply rooted sentiment within them, I pulled a smile and pulled his face closer to offering a long and tender kiss of my appreciation.
At ease and able to soak in every drop of pure bliss, I couldn’t help but agree with him.
We had the world between the two of us, and before long, we would be a neat little family of three.
Regardless of what it took to get there, we were everything the moon goddess ever had mapped out for us, and I couldn’t help but thank her as I considered how deeply lucky I truly was.
If I ever had the chance to tell my younger self that she would one day be mates with her best friend’s brother and be expecting a baby, I knew she would never believe me.
Epilogue - Sebastian
I had the joy of experiencing many wonders in my life, but nothing could quite compare to the sight in front of me—the one I wanted engrained in my mind forever.
Standing at the nursery's threshold, I looked on fondly as Lydia sat in the rocking chair wearing a loose, feminine dress that stirred in the breeze from the cracked window with our baby in her arms.
Her soft, soothing voice eased any possible tension or worries from the little one’s heart as she rocked her ever so slightly, looking into her tiny, delicate face.
Watching her in such a relaxed and natural state as she cared for our young one brought immense pride over me, and that deep love I had for her pulsed within me.
