Page 42 of Worship Him

There's no time for gentle exploration, no room for tender caresses.

I shove her against the wall again, the impact reverberating through both of us. Her gasp fuels me, drives me to claim her mouth with a savagery that borders on pain.

Her legs wrap around my waist, the heat between us scorching, even through the remaining layers of fabric that are still too damn much.

Every touch, every bite, every harsh pant serves as a reminder of what we've been denying ourselves.

It's animalistic, primal, a frenzy that blots out the world beyond this room.

More clothing is torn, buttons scatter, and then there's nothing but skin on skin. Her nails rake down my back, a stinging reminder of her presence, of her need.

I lift her higher, her body sliding against mine, seeking friction, seeking completion.

"Yes," she hisses as I enter her with one brutal thrust. Her muscles clench around me, a tight, hot glove that threatens to unravel my control.

There's no finesse, no careful rhythm; we're two hurricanes colliding, a maelstrom of passion and fury and unspoken regret.

Our bodies slam together in the darkness, the sound a pleasurable testament to the storm we're riding out.

Her cries fill the room, a siren's song that drives me faster, harder.

The world outside ceases to exist; there are no past mistakes, no future consequences. There's only the here and now, the feel of Destiny's body locked with mine, the slap of skin against skin, the taste of her on my tongue.

I'm relentless, a man possessed, and she meets me thrust for thrust, her own hunger as desperate as my own.

"Don't. Ever. Keep anything from me again," I demand between clenched teeth, the words punctuated by the force of our bodies meeting.

She nods, her eyes locked on mine, wide and wild and beautiful. "I promise," she breathes out, her voice a hoarse whisper that I feel right down to my soul.

I bite down on the soft flesh of her neck, the taste of sweat sending a shiver of delight down my spine. I want to mark her, to brand her as mine in a way that no one can ever deny.

She's chanting my name like a mantra, a plea, and a prayer wrapped into one. I increase my pace, driven by a primal need to possess, to dominate.

The world narrows to the sensations coursing through us. The sweet friction, the rush of blood, the sounds of our passion echoing off the walls.

We're a tangle of limbs, a study in contrasts—the hard lines of my body against the soft curves of hers.

Her release hits her hard, her back arching as she cries out my name. The sound of it, the raw need in her voice, triggers my own undoing.

I thrust into her one final time, burying myself to the hilt as I spill into her with a guttural groan.

For a moment, we're suspended in time, our bodies shuddering with the aftershocks of our climax.

As our breathing slows and the sweat cools on our skin, reality begins to creep back in. I lower her to the ground, her legs unsteady, and she sags against me, her forehead resting on my chest.

Neither of us speaks. Words would only shatter the fragile truce we've wordlessly agreed upon.

What just happened between us... it changes things, but how, I'm not yet sure.

We walk over to the bed and get under the covers, the chill of the night finally catching up to our naked bodies.

The storm outside has quieted somewhat, but I can't shake the feeling that we're far from clear skies.

Still, I feel myself relax and sink a little more into the bed. The room smells like us—a mix of sweat and sex, raw and intoxicating. I breathe it in, remembering that this smell used to linger in our bedroom often before things went wrong between us.

We lie there, the silence between us not uncomfortable, but heavy with the remnants of our passion and the unspoken words that linger like smoke after a fire. The occasional creak of the house settling is the only sound that dares to intrude upon our solitude.

I can't help but think of the irony; the world outside believes itself to be in the aftermath of chaos, while here, in the eye of our personal hurricane, we've found a moment of peace.
