Rylan’s fingers found her most sensitive spots, grazing them with a featherlight touch that drove her wild. She felt as if she were on fire, her heart racing like a wild animal, desperate for release.
“Oh, god… Rylan!” she cried.
Rylan tightened his grip on her and flipped her over so she was on top. She arched her back, her hips undulating in time with his thrusts.
As Rylan continued to move within her, Elena felt like she was flying, her body soaring to new heights of passion. She could feel the heat of his skin against hers, his muscles flexing with each thrust. Her breath was ragged, her heart pounding, and her moans grew louder and more fervent.
She could hear the thunder of his heartbeat, a rhythm that seemed to match the beat of her own. Their bodies were one, their movements in sync as if they were made for each other.
She could feel the building sensation within her again, the wave of pleasure that would once more bring her to the edge and the moment of ecstasy she craved. Her moans grew louder, moredesperate, as she clawed at the sheets, her body arching and undulating.
And then it happened. She clenched, her muscles tightening around him in a vise-like grip, her body trembling violently as she squeezed.
He continued to thrust, not letting up for a moment.
Elena’s release overwhelmed her. She could feel her body start to quiver, shaking violently as the orgasm overtook her. She cried out Rylan’s name, her voice hoarse with emotion as her body convulsed in pleasure. Rylan thrust one last time, releasing deeply inside of her.
He collapsed onto her, their bodies entwined with her hair falling over her face. He kissed her forehead, her lips, her eyelids, anywhere he could reach, unable to express the depth of his love for her.
She wrapped her arms around him and held him close, their bodies still shaking from the intense pleasure they had just shared.
As they lay there in each other’s arms, Elena and Rylan knew they had just experienced something truly special, something that would bond them together for the rest of their lives. They had found each other, and they knew they would never let go.
In the afterglow of their intensely passionate lovemaking, Elena could feel Rylan’s heart beating against her own, their bodiesconnected in more ways than just physically. She knew they had just shared something sacred, something that would forever change the course of their lives.
As the moments passed, Elena’s thoughts began to drift to the future. She wondered what life would be like with Rylan by her side, the thought of it sending a warmth coursing through her veins. She knew they would face challenges and that life would not always be easy, but she also knew that with Rylan by her side, nothing would be impossible.
Chapter 20
Rylan
“Breakfast is served,” Rylan said, placing a plate of freshly cooked eggs in front of Elena. He didn’t know what creature the eggs had come from, but they were all the rage with the royals lately.
They could’ve easily gone to any one of the kitchens and had breakfast made for them. But Rylan found no joy in that. Hefound that watching Elena eat and enjoy his cooking filled him with immeasurable pride. So, he’d do it every chance he got.
“Oh, thank you,” Elena said, finally looking up from the stack of reports on the table. She’d been poring over them since they woke up. She quickly scarfed down the breakfast before returning her attention to the reports.
Rylan couldn’t help but smile as he watched. A lesser man might’ve wanted Elena to give him some attention at a moment like this. But not Rylan. This was how he liked her.
Headfirst in her work, figuring out a tough equation or mapping a new solution. Rylan loved to marvel at her as she worked. She was like nothing else he’d ever seen. He never wanted it to stop.
He grabbed his own plate of eggs and joined her at the table. As he ate, he studied her face. The way her lips moved as she read to herself. How her eyes darted around the paper. The crease in her forehead that tipped Rylan off that something was off in the report.
“Something isn’t adding up here.”
“Really?” Rylan pretended to be shocked. “In what part?”
“The tests we ran yesterday… I think we miscalculated. We should get to the institute early to run them again. Hurry up and finish eating.”
“I just sat down,” Rylan protested.
“I know,” Elena said, standing up. “That’s why I told you to hurry up! I’ll be dressed and ready to go in five minutes. You should be, too!”
Rylan simply laughed as Elena raced off to the bedroom. He ate his eggs and watched her move, certain he could not be any happier.
Once again, he thought about how a lesser man would be angry at Elena. They’d want to be treated with “respect” or something and be allowed to eat at their own pace.
But that’s far from what Rylan wanted. He wanted Elena, quirks and all, and that included how blindingly dedicated she was to her work. It was awe-inspiring to him. And he felt gratified that he got to work alongside her.
