Lifting her into his arms, he carried her towards the bed and without breaking the kiss, eased her down, following her down. He savored the taste of her on his tongue, the feel of her slender curves against his starving body.

Ending the kiss, he trailed the curve of her cheek, the sides of her mouth and down to the sensitive spot at the side of her neck.

Her cry of triumph quickly turned to fevered moans as he blaze a fire to her breast, his tongue toyed with the nipple and had her grabbing his hair, clutching at the thick strands as he first used the tip of his tongue on the pebble like flesh before taking it between his teeth and suckled.

Her cries echoed around the room, her body arching frenziedly towards his. “Now! Now!” she demanded, lifting her body and trying to force him to enter her.

“Not yet.” His voice was a harsh whisper as he switched to the other nipple to give it the same thorough treatment.

“Please.” She dug her fingers into his shoulders as he went further down.

He was mad to have her, but was determined to have his fill, determined to taste and pleasure her until she was as mad as he was.

Lifting her legs, he draped them over his shoulders and lifted her hips. As soon as his tongue entered her musky moistness, she came. The climax had her jerking upwards, fingers curling into the sheets and her body convulsing. Tilting her head back, she screamed hoarsely, the climax pommeling her until she could hardly bear it.

He scooted up and covered her trembling body with his, driving into her with a force that shoved her towards the padded headboard.

He stayed still for a minute, his teeth gritted as he fought for control. Her familiar tightness wrapped around him like a cloak.

Her hands drifted up his chest slowly as she opened her eyes.

His hands framed her face gently, head lowered to take her lips. The kiss was gentle and sweet and had her leaking again.

Her hands came up around his shoulders as she kissed him back – pouring her heart and what she had been feeling for the past week into it. He moved then, slowly at first as if trying desperately to stay in control, but that was not to be.

As soon as she started moving, he was lost. His control broke into a million pieces and forgetting about finesse, he drove into her forcefully. She came again, her hands racing up and down his back, fingers biting into his shoulders. Emotions swept through him like a violent storm as he poured himself into her until he was completely empty.

It took minutes for the shuddering to stop and for him to gather enough composure to realize he was more than likely crushing her. When he started to slide off her, she clung, wrapping her arms tight around his neck and her legs around his waist.

“Just let me…”

“No.” She whispered against his throat. “Do not leave me. Please.”

His heart shuddered at the plaintive sound of her voice. “Baby, just…”

“I love you.” She blurted out. He went still as emotions stormed through his body. Lifting his head, he shifted so that he could see her face.

“What?”

Her cheeks were still damp with tears, her lips swollen. “I was such an idiot. It took you staying away for a week to make me realize what I have.” Her hand cupped his jaw. “I hurt you and I am sorry for that. But I was scared and selfish and determined not to be hurt again.

I want this baby, Leo; our baby and I am sorry I said otherwise. I spent the last week living in fear that you were going to call and tell me to leave.” She swallowed the lump in her throat. “I wanted to call you, but I was afraid of what you would say and scared that you were with someone else.”

“You love me?” His voice was thick, his eyes intense.

“Yes.” She laughed shakily. “And I know you probably hate me…”

“Never.” He placed a hand over hers and closed his eyes briefly. “Sweetheart, how could you not see that I have been in love with you for two years?”

She went still, her eyes widening. “Sorry?”

He chuckled at her stunned expression. “Ever since I bumped into you while I was crossing the street.”

“The first time we met?”

“Yes. Baby, let me…” He shifted so that he was lying next to her.

“But – but – I was with…”
