Neve stays leaning against me, my arm around her waist, her knees spread open and her head resting on my shoulder.

We are both breathing heavily, my cock still hard inside her.

I run my hand over her throat.

“I won’t let you leave again.” I whisper against her ear. “I’ve given you enough time away from me. Now you belong to me again.”

I can sense the shift in her energy. She’s smiling, I can tell without even looking at her.

“Is that so?” She smirks.

“That very much is so, my love.”

I slide my cock out of her before it goes hard again.

I lift her off the counter and set her down on the ground. Picking up her torn panties I lift them to my face and breathe in the scent of her. Grinning at the expression of horror on her face. She reaches up and grabs them from me. “I’ve been dancing all night in those.” She exclaims.

“Next time I’ll let you dance on my face all night.” I mutter, grabbing her close to me and kissing her.

“I’m serious, Neve. I won’t let you go again.”

She grins, her lips curving into a smile against mine. “It’s ok. I don’t think I want to go.” She whispers.

“Are you serious? Don’t mess with me on this. It won’t turn out well.” I say.

“I’m serious, Celso. I - I think I’m ready to come back.”

“You still care about me? You want to be married to me?” I ask, worried she will say no, and that this is a trial.

Instead she wraps her arms around my neck and stands on her tip toes.

“I love you, asshole. I never stopped loving you I was - shocked. And angry. I might still be a little angry.” She sighs.

I chuckle and she tilts her head to the side, narrowing her eyes at me. “What’s funny about me being angry?” She asks.

“Well, if tonight is anything to go by - I think I might know how to sort you out whenever you get angry - and I think I might rather enjoy helping you let go of your anger.”

She giggles as her cheeks flush pink.

“I can’t complain about that—” She says, hiding her face against my chest.

I lift her chin and gaze into her eyes.

“I’ve missed you more than words can describe, Neve. I can’t be without you. I’m a wreck without you. I need you in my life, by my side. I want my entire future to beyou.” I speak from the heart.

“I’m so scared you’ll get bored withme after you’ve realized I’m an ordinary girl - and you’ll forget about me.”

I pack up laughing because what she is suggesting is so ridiculously impossible I don’t know where to begin explain this to her.

“My angel - you are anything but ordinary. And you and I are about to spend a lifetime together, going on every adventure we can dream up, experiencing the world together, learning about each other and every moment of every day - we are going to grow closer and more inseparable.”

She smiles, a soft, beautiful smile that lights her eyes with glittering stars.

“I can’t wait.” She whispers.

“I love you, Neve. I always will.” I whisper back to her.

I lift her in my arms and carry her to bed. I underdress her slowly and she climbs beneath the blankets with me, her back curved against my chest. My arms locked around her, the scent of her hair on my pillow - everything is as it should be and for the first time in a very long time, I sleep deeply and peacefully.
