I can’t breathe as every muscle in my body tenses, ensnared in utter, devastating bliss.
I collapse on the bed. I can’t move. I am utterly paralyzed beneath him, yet still so wildly hungry for him inside me, I whisper a heated, desperate, “Please, Rafail.”
His eyes on me are wild with passion as he pushes himself above me, grabs the thick length of his cock in his fist, and glides the tip to my core. My mouth is open in anticipation, my body trembling as his hands anchor on my hips and thrusts. My head hits the pillow as the echo of ecstasy electrifies me.
“Oh god,” I half sob, half plead, as he thrusts again and again, hard and demanding, pleasure echoing through my body like the beating of a drum. My skin’s on fire, and my breath is coming in gasps. I feel his hardened length in me, filling me, stretching, sending spasms of pleasure to every inch of me.
Bending his mouth to my neck, he kisses me, his eyes filled with nothing short of adulation, as if he’s been searching for something his entire life and… it’s me. He’s found it.
“Rafail,” I whisper in his ear as he thrusts again.
Baby.
I want to put my baby in you.
I’ll make you mine in every way possible.
I’m still riding the wave of pleasure when a second orgasm echoes the first. I lock my fingers around his neck, our sweat-slicked chests pressed together. I shudder and moan, meeting his thrusts as he grips me in his arms and comes with a low growl of pleasure, so masculine, so raw and primal, it sends me straight into another orbit. I scream beneath him as he spills inside me, his forehead pressed to mine.
“I love you,” he says in a hoarse whisper as pleasure pulls me under.
“I love you,” I whisper back as my eyes flutter closed. I ride the waves of pleasure while he continues to thrust. I cherish the feel of his hot seed inside me, and I welcome the branding heat of his kiss on my forehead before he falls beside me.
We’re still wrapped in each other’s arms when the first hint of sleep washes over me. I’m blissed out. I never knew pleasure so perfect and full, and now I’ve got nothing left to give. He pulls out of me, rolls me over, and tucks me against him. I’m a mess, and so is he, but I don’t care. I feel the warmth of his balled-up tee between my legs. The weight of his body behind me and the heft of his arm around me as he tucks me to his chest. His nose in my hair and mouth on my neck before I fall into a deep, blissful, restful sleep.
When I wake, I frantically check for him. I’m used to him up by now, working out, checking messages and updates on his phone, staring out at the sunrise while sipping a cup of coffee. But today, he’s right beside me.
I know he’s awake when he strokes my shoulder, the heat of his hand travels the length of my body, and his rough fingers splay across my belly. I don’t know how one can feel completely consumed by another person, but he’s gone and done it.
“Morning, beautiful,” he says in that sleepy-sexy growl. “Are you alright?”
I turn to face him, tucking my head into the warm space of his neck. Here, I feel protected… but for the first time, I realize this is what I’ve been fighting for, this is what I’ve wanted.To belong.For someone to choose me as much as I choose them.
And I mean it. The weeks of confusion, pain, and uncertainty, even as I was falling in love with my would-be husband, were worth it, every damn second, so I could revel in the bliss of being reunited.
“Never been better.”
His strong hand cups my ass as I nestle in. “I smell coffee.”
“Mmm,” I murmur with a sleepy sigh. “Sounds delicious, but… I don’t want to see anyone right now.”
“Hell no. Me neither. I’ll get us some.”
I sigh. “I’d rather skip morning coffee than have you leave right now.”
His phone dings with a text. Without letting me go, he reaches over and checks it.
“Hot damn. Zoya brought us up breakfast and coffee. Thought we could use some alone time.”
“You need to buy that girl a pony.”
“A pony?”
“Yeah. Or like… I don’t know. A Camaro. Private island? Something. She deserves it for putting up with you all theseyears, then pulling her weight like a boss when we were attacked, and just everything.”
He kisses my cheek. I stare up at him.
“You have no idea how much it means to me that you love them too.”
