“You want me to take her for a bit?” Kira offers as I shift Natalia from one hip to the other.

“Do you mind?” I ask, because our baby girl is getting heavy, and my arms are starting to ache.

“Not at all. Come here, my little pumpkin,” Kira says, turning her attention to Natalia as she holds out her hands.

Natalia goes to her with a happy giggle, and I can’t help but smile as Kira cradles her in her arms.

“Would it be rude to take off while no one’s looking?” Maks asks under his breath, and when I look up to meet his eyes, fire ignites deep in my belly.

“You know, I think I saw signs for a bathroom,” I tease, my pulse quickening as I think about the last time I went looking down hallways for one.

“Glad to hear you know to look for signage now. I’d hate to have to make you my prisoner again.”

“You wouldn’t dare,” I warn, narrowing my eyes at him as I slowly back toward the powder room.

“Hmm. I have a pair of handcuffs that say otherwise,” he warns darkly, his eyes darkening as he steps toward me.

Glancing over his shoulder to make sure no one is watching, I back up slowly—and as soon as the wall hides me from view, I turn and run. My heart races as adrenaline surges through me at the thought of a chase, and when Maks’s heavy steps start to narrow the distance between us, it skips a beat. I know he’s right behind me as I round the corner, and I barely have time to wrench open the bathroom door before he’s on me, hot breath tickling the back of my neck as his strong arm snakes around my waist.

I gasp, my skin tingling as heat rushes through me, and then he’s turning me to pin me against the back of the door.

“Where do you think you’re going, little rabbit?” he growls, trapping my arms above my head with one hand as he throws the door’s deadbolt with the other. “You can’t get away from me.”

Hot excitement pools in my belly, and I squirm against him as the chase makes my excitement almost unbearable. “What are you going to do about it?” I ask, tipping my chin up defiantly and bringing our lips dangerously close.

“I’ll show you what happens when you try to run from me,” he warns, his hand following the curves of my body over the swell of my full breasts and down to the high slit in my flowy wedding dress. Brushing my skirt aside, he boldly puts his hand between my thighs and releases an agonized groan. “You’re not wearing any panties?” he hisses.

I wanted to surprise him with it, and my core throbs with anticipation as his fingers brush between my folds. I’m already so wet for him I can feel the slickness as he runs it over my clit.

“Fuck,” he breathes. “You are so fucking perfect.”

My breaths quicken at the sound of his buckle coming undone and his zipper lowering, then he releases my arms, letting them fall across his shoulders as he grasps my thighs. Lifting me effortlessly, he wraps my legs around him as he pins me to the door with his hips. I feel the hot pulse of his arousal as he lines up with my entrance and plunges inside of me, bare, his cock filling me to the hilt as I clench around him. I cry out, the pleasure blasting through me with such force it wipes my mind blank. He holds my gaze, and desire pulses through me, every stroke making me gasp. Nothing has ever felt this good, and I want it to go on forever, but I know we should make it quick. We have guests waiting for us—and a first dance I’ve been looking forward to for months.

“You’re mine,zaya, now and forever,” Maks rasps, his eyes intense as he claims me with a passion that sets my soul on fire. “Say it,” he growls.

“I’m yours! Only yours,” I whimper, rippling around him.

“Come for me, little rabbit,” he commands as he pounds into my depths. “Come on my cock while I fill you up with my cum.”

One more deep thrust, and I’m falling over the edge, clenching around him as he groans and sinks into me. The hot rush of his cum filling me makes my orgasm that much more intense, and a thrill races up my spine as I cling to him. His lips find mine as his hips rock against me, and I feel his cock twitch inside of me as he seals it with a searing kiss.

“I love you, Lindsey,” he breathes as he slowly lowers me back to my feet.

“I love you, too, Maks,” I say, my body pulsing at the feel of his cum mingling with mine as it coats the insides of my thighs. Our little secret to keep me aching for more until we can finally go home.

“Thank you for staying,” he murmurs. “After everything I put you through at the beginning—” He shakes his head. “I honestly don’t know how I got so lucky.”

My lips twitch with a playful smile. “You can chalk it up to the handcuffs,” I tease, but the truth is I’m the lucky one. This is a forever that’s better than anything I could have dreamed.

“Prisoner or not, you’ve captivated me completely,” he says, eyes soft as he brushes the backs of his knuckles across my cheek.

“I’m yours, always,” I promise, rising onto my toes to steal one last kiss, and I know there’s nowhere else on earth I would rather be.
