“Yes, we’ll do the press conference at the airport after we land. A suitable room is being organized.”

“Now tell me, are you okay with what mymamásaid about your father?”

I shift in the bed so I’m facing him. A small night light illuminates the room, and I can see his face. His eyes are open and staring directly at me.

“Surprisingly, yes I am. I’m sad they didn’t get their happy ever after.”

“Always selfless.”

“Not selfless, I just know what it’s like to be with the man I truly love, and Sofia never got to experience that.”

“Not sure I want to think about mymamábeing with anyone, but I know what you mean.”

“It’s going to be all right, Leo. We’ll sort this out.”

“I know.”

I press my lips to his.

“Make love to me, please.”

“Always.”

Our lips join again, twisting together in a powerful embrace of emotion. We’re both so exhausted we’re unsure of what planet we’re on at the moment, but we know this is what we need. Time for just the two of us, so we can forget about all our worries for a while. I know Izzy is physically unharmed. But mentally, I’m not sure what she’s suffering. However, I have to give my little girl credit. She’s stronger than I thought she would ever be. Maybe I did do something right in the way I raised her.

Leo moves his hand to rest upon my breast. I’m still wearing my bra, and he reaches behind me and deftly unfastens and removes it before throwing it to the floor. His lips find my breasts, and I roll onto my back to allow him better access to the tender flesh there. He nips and licks, teasing the nipples into hard peaks.

“I could spend a lot of time with these. Playing with them and licking them. They’re perfect.” He massages my breasts and flicks the nipples, sending a direct shot of energy to my clit. My breath quickens, and I move my hips against him, trying to guide him lower. “Feeling a little hot and bothered elsewhere?” he asks with a smile.

“Yes.” My voice is breathless already.

Only Leo can melt me into a puddle of need like this. I want him. I crave his touch everywhere, especially between my thighs. I’m wet and ready for him, but he’s not going to give me what I want yet. No, he teases his fingers between my folds, dipping one into my entrance before pulling it out again. He then brings his fingers to his lips and sucks my essence from them.

“Delicious and all mine.”

I squirm on the bed, needing something more. All of a sudden, Leo flips me over onto my stomach and pulls me up onto all fours. He’s behind me, and I feel the head of his cock at my entrance. He pushes in deep in one slick movement, thanks to my readiness for him. His hand reaches around between us and strokes my clit at the same time as his hips pump in and out of me. I’m going to come quickly like this. I’m a totally pliant lover beneath his expertise.

Three thrusts later and I explode, my body shuddering as Leo holds me close to him. I don’t feel him come. He still has more to give, but as my body comes out of its pleasure, he withdraws from me and strokes himself a few times. I sit down on the side of the bed, my mouth open wide, and my tongue out like a dog begging for a bone—a big juicy one. Leo smirks salaciously before pressing his cock against my lips and I lick the tip. Then pushing himself in to the back of my throat, he begins to move, and I gag on his length with every piston of his hips.

“Fuck,” he cries out, wrapping his hand firmly around my hair. “I love you, Elise. Don’t ever let us lose each other again.”

I moan around his cock before he pulls it from my mouth.

“We won’t. We’ll hold on tightly this time,” I reassure him.

“I want to come inside you, mark you. Marry you. Make a child with you when you’re ready. Everything. Everything my mama and your father never had.”

I feel tears pick at the corners of my eyes as he lays me back down on the bed and pushes himself into my sex once again. I wrap my legs and arms around him, needing to get him as deep inside me as possible. We move, barely, his hips rocking gently inside me now. There’s no urgency—just a burning need to be joined for as long as possible. If only we could freeze this moment and prevent the fragility of our situation from possibly destroying us. Our eyes meet. Leo’s are full of tears as well. The emotion is overwhelming him as much as it is me.

At this angle, his groin rubs against my clit, and I can feel my orgasm building again.

“I love you,” I whisper.

“I love you too,” he responds, and we both find our release at the same time.

Tears stream down our faces, and in the silence of the room, the only noise we can hear is the sound of the plane’s engines as it propels us, miles and miles, back to our fate.
