When I looked back down at him, this man that had come into my life that I now didn’t think I could live without, I felt those three words bubble up in my throat before being forced back by barriers of anxiety.

I ran a hand from his brow to his scalp, carding my fingers through his curls and clutching at his shirt with the other. Orion’s hands were holding my hips until he brought his thumb to my mouth.

I sucked it in without command, without question, and swirled around the pad of his finger with my tongue.

“So beautiful. My little witch.”

I shot a breath through my nose, still sucking on his thumb, and ground my naked hips into his clothed ones. He sat us on the end of his bed, and I was growing impatient. I’d already had a taste of what it felt like to have him inside of me, and I needed it. Now.

Orion made a sympathetic noise, brows turning upward, “Tell me what you want, Sylvie.”

I released his thumb, letting a trail of my saliva fall down my face. Even in the dark, I was able to see Orion’s pale face clearly, and again, it was like he was another person. Another version of himself that wasn’t shy, wasn’t grumbling. One that was… ravenous. “I want you to fuck me. Pl?—”

My pleading ended on a startled yelp when Orion pulled down the neckline of my dress, exposing both of my breasts to the air heating between us. I gave another whimper as I watched him, without preamble, bend down to take my left nipple into his mouth. I untangled my feet from behind his back and shifted tokneel over his lap. I pressed up, feet tucked beneath me and on either side of his legs, to get even closer to him.

And he delivered, flicking his tongue while he nipped gently with his teeth. My hands pressed on the back of his head, holding him to me as I arched, groaning into the spacious room.

After nearly working me out of my mind, Orion switched to the other breast and pressed down on my waist. I relented, bending to sit down on his lap, and my eyes rolled all the way back when I felt the hard, warm press of his naked cock.

“Oh fuck, oh shit,” I gritted through my teeth as my body moved over him like an animal in heat. The crown of his dick gave just the right amount of friction and pressure against my clit, and I shook while chasing the release that was so close, just out of my reach.

My nails nearly shred his shirt with how hard I clung to him, but he seemed to like that too, and a deep growl from Orion vibrating against my skin sent me over the edge. I went limp as the waves of pleasure thundered through me, my breathing almost pained with how good it felt. If he could do this to me now, I was almost scared of what was to come.

Orion gentled his kisses and licks and trailed them up my chest then settled at the mark that was always tender, always throbbing, when he was near.

“So sweet when you come for me. So good,” he praised into my skin.

I scratched his back in answer while my mind was slowly pulling itself together from the pile of goop he’d left it in.

“Are you sleepy now, mo ghrá?”

I shook my head, kissed his brow, “Not yet.” He smelled earthy and strong, like he belonged in the forest just beside us. It calmed something within me, made me feel like I could truly exhale.

My hips wriggled, body apparently revving up to go again, and Orion’s dick was still hard between my legs. “I want you inside of me.”

Instead of responding, Orion took the bottom of my dress and pulled it over my head. I reached my arms upward and finished what he started by throwing the dress across the room.

Then, it was only a matter of seconds before we were both pulling at his shirt, shoving down his jeans and boxers. My back met the firm mattress of his bed just before his body settled over mine.

We’d never been naked with each other before, never had so much contact between us. I felt greedy to touch and explore his strong shoulders and arms and the firm round ass that I’d ogled many, many times.

I opened my legs wider and wiggled until I felt him just a faint thrust away from finally giving me what I craved. His body was trembling over me, as if he was just a breath away from succumbing, and I took his jaw in my hands.

We’d talked about it briefly, and a bit awkwardly, but I felt like I needed to confirm this for him. “Please, Orion.” I ran my finger over his brow that was pulled low over his eyes.

“You’re sure?” He asked, and I just nodded, smiling up at this man that I was already so in love with. Did he feel that way about me, too? By the way he nodded along with me, face pained while he hooked a hand under my knee, I guessed that he did. He pressed my thigh to my chest, but I kept my eyes on his.

I let loose a helpless cry as he finally gave himself to me. Just an inch, and then another, Orion slowly entered me, and I knew. I knew that there was no going back. He was it—thiswas it. We savored each other, joining in this moment that erased all others before.

He was mine, and I was his. And when his hips finally met mine again, his cock buried and stretching me completely, I wastruly home. With no barriers between us, I kissed Orion, letting him feel all the love I had in that moment where I was truly without words.

And I felt it from him, with the way his lips molded to mine, with the way his warmth became mine.

And when we started moving, his thrusts gradually becoming deeper, harder, I just held on and met him. Orion tucked his head into my neck, panting and kissing and groaning, and where before he’d fucked me like he couldn’t take being apart for another second, I realized now what it meant to truly be made love to.

He turned me on my side, still holding my thigh, and entered again from behind. The trees and lake watched as we took each other, and the pressure built again.

I craned my neck and found him staring down at where our bodies joined, watching his cock thrust in, out, in, out.
