Page 225 of In Love with a Cruel Billionaire

Mairi’s arms wrapped around his neck. “I love you,” she whispered just before hugging him tightly. She pressed a kiss on his shoulder. “I love you, love you, love you—-”

He groaned, her words making him grind his cock hard into her as he came one last time.

They remained in the same position for a long time, his cock still inside her while both of them tried to catch their breaths.

Finally, Mairi stirred under him, and he stiffened when he felt her fingers graze his naked back. Slowly, she started to stroke him, making the tension gradually leave his body.

“Same nightmare?”

His head lowered against her shoulder. Trust his wife to know what was happening, even without a word being spoken.

“You know it’s silly, right?” A pause, and her fingers on his back stilled as well. When he didn’t speak, she whispered, “I’ll never leave you again.”

After a beat, he said tautly, “You don’t know that.”

She shook her head. Nudged his shoulder until he took the hint and rolled them over, him on his back, his wife on top, but their bodies still intimately connected.

A tender smile formed on her lips. “Of course I do.” She pressed her mouth to his, and as his lips opened, her tongue slid in, making him gasp.

When she pulled away, both of them were breathing harder. For Damen, it was not the only thing of his body that was hard.

“Iloveyou. And you...love me, right?”

He said grimly, “There’s no fucking question about it.”

“Then neither of us is going to leave. It’s that simple, Damen. You, me, and Nala.The three of us are forever.”

Her words washed over him, its sweetness doing its best to eliminate the fears that still lingered in his heart.

He asked slowly, “What do you think...of moving to Florida permanently? You’d be closer to your aunts and...”

Her eyes were wide. “W-what about your work?”

“I can work anywhere,” he said simply. “Would you like that?” He had expected she would, which was why her hesitation bemused him.

Until she spoke.

“What about you? Will you be happy there? What about Diana?”

“My sister would be more than happy to transfer to the school where Katya is studying and...” He held her by the nape. “I will be happy wherever you are.” He pulled her down, kissing her hungrily, and when Mairi’s nipples pricked his chest, he knew the night was far from over for both of them.

Forcing himself to pull away so he could finish their conversation for good, he cupped her face, his thumbs stroking her cheeks. “I want us to start fresh and here...in Greece...there are just too many damn memories.”

She bit her lip. “But Florida...that’s where you...”

He knew right away what she couldn’t say, knew she was talking about the time he had almost gotten beaten to death as he tried to fight against the men preventing him from talking to Mairi.

“I don’t consider that a bad memory,matakia mou.”

“Y-you don’t?”

“That was one of the few moments I could prove to you I truly love you,” he said tightly. “How can I ever consider that a bad memory?”

His words made her smile tremulously. “You w-were hospitalized, s-so many broken ribs, and you had even been u-unconscious for a time.” She choked, holding back both tears and laughter. “How indeed?”

He laughed. Licking her tears, raining kisses over her face, he said, “I love you,” over and over. He couldn’t believe how good it felt, being able to say the words.

When her tears were dry, he asked quietly, “What do you think?”
