His eyes never left mine.

“I want this,” I said, so we were clear. “I want you.”

He let out a shaky breath, as if my words unleashed something inside him, and his hands moved to frame my face. He kissed me with a reverence that made my knees weak. It was a kiss filled with tenderness and love, one that had us both lost in one another.

We tugged at each other’s clothing, removing piece by piece until we were both standing before the other bare. The awe in his eyes as he took in the sight of me bare before him was intoxicating.

“You’re beautiful,” he whispered, his voice thick with emotion.

I felt like a goddess under his gaze, one who was cherished and desired.

Wanted.

I reached out for his chest, feeling the warmth of his skin and the ripples of his muscles. His hand slid between my thighs, his thumb finding my most sensitive area with ease. He moved his thumb in slow circles, rubbing my clit just right.

Pleasure built through my core.

The sight of it must have been evident on my face because one corner of his mouth lifted into a teasing smile and his eyes brightened with lust. I tilted my pelvis so he could better reach me, as tingling pleasure built between my thighs. When his mouth dipped to take one of my puckered nipples into his mouth, I nearly lost it.

This man was about to make me melt right here and now.

My core tightened and my breathing hitched as his thumb picked up tempo. I closed my eyes and tipped my head back, fighting against the bliss that wanted to overtake me.

“Let go,” he whispered, his attention pulling away from my breast to fixate on my bottom lip. He nipped it, and then skimmed his lips down the length of my neck. “I’ve got you.”

He slid one finger in, and then a second, moving at the perfect pace, and I felt like I might combust from so much pleasure building inside me.

It had been a long time since I’d been touched by a man like this.

When I finally gave in and broke apart, shattering into a blissful state of pure euphoria, time itself slowed down. All I could feel was him. He clouded my senses like a heavy fog.

“Beautiful,” he whispered, and I opened my eyes to see that he’d been staring at me.

I leaned forward and brushed my lips against his. He lined himself up with my slick center, and all I could think about was how much I wanted this—how much I wanted him.

I craved that type of connection with him.

He pulled back, his eyes searching mine for any sign of hesitation. I gave him nothing but encouragement as I moved my hands over his back, urging him closer. He moved his hips with a carefulness that made my heart swell as he slowly entered me.

This was more than a physical thing happening between us—it was as if our souls were intertwining.

“You feel incredible,” he groaned as he found a rhythm that had pleasure building in my core quickly.

I clung to him, my nails digging into his back as I urged him on, desperate for more and feeling the same. His lips found mine in a searing kiss, and our tongues tangled as we lost ourselves in the moment. Moments later, I could feel the tension building inside him as his movements became more erratic while he chased his release. I wrapped my legs tighter around his waist, wanting to feel every inch of him as he brought us both to the brink of ecstasy.

With a final, powerful thrust, he buried himself deep inside me, a guttural moan tearing from his throat as he found hisrelease. The feeling of him pulsing within me sent me over the edge, and I cried out his name as my own orgasm suddenly crashed over me.

We stayed like that for a moment, bodies entwined as we caught our breath, basking in the afterglow of our lovemaking. He pressed soft kisses to my neck and shoulder, causing warmth to swell within my chest.

Slowly, reluctantly, he pulled out of me and we stood there, our foreheads pressed together while we both struggled to catch our breath.

“I can’t believe we just did that up here,” I said, feeling giddy. “I’ve never done anything like that before.”

“Honestly, me either.” He smiled shyly, putting space between us again as he met my stare. “It was amazing, though.”

Yes, it was.

“I never knew it could be like that,” I confessed. “So…” I trailed off, searching for the right word. “Connected.”
