One of his hands grazed up my side to find a breast. He pinched my nipple, sending a shot of pain and electricity through me. I moaned into his mouth and felt him laugh. I wrapped my arms around him tightly, needing as much of him in contact with me as I could get. As the pleasure overtook me again, I dug my nails into him. He let out a yelp which turned into a shuddering groan as his thrusts became more erratic. His breath was ragged, and he moved his face away to look at me as he finally came. Shuddering cries rocked him as he came inside me. I could feel the thick, hot cum filling me.
It felt like he was coming inside me for an eternity, before his thrusts slowed and he sagged slightly. His eyes fluttered closed for a moment, his face a picture of bliss. I placed a gentle kiss on his lips, and he smiled.
“Are you OK, Fern?”
“Never better.” It was true. I felt whole in a way I never had before.
“Let's get you dressed and get back to the car.”
I pouted a bit at the thought of no longer having our naked bodies pressed together. But he was right. I would freeze to death out here. But going back? All the problems from before were still the same. I couldn’t do that to him. I had to leave. But I wasn’t sure I had the strength to walk away from him again.
Chapter 16
Kiy
I could see what she was thinking. It was written all over her face. “Luke will be in jail by now. I’ve dealt with it.”
Her face twitched, a micro-expression of hope that she quickly dashed. It hurt to see that her life had never let her truly hold on to hope before and be rewarded by it. “How?” Her voice was cautious.
“I convinced him it was in his best interests to be honest. I had to leave to come and find you. But if he’s changed his mind, then I’ll convince him again.”
“Convinced?”
“A small bar fight with him and five of his friends.”
Her face contorted with shock and she looked me up and down to see if there were injuries she had missed.
“I’m fine. They came off worse?”
“All five of them?”
“Yes. Honey, I’m a very large, thick-skinned monster. They are just humans. You underestimated me. Don’t do it again.”
The sternness in his voice sent a tingle through me. “Won’t you get in trouble? From your boss?”
“Hmmmmmm. Maybe. Probably. Yes. But nothing too bad. A bit of a scuffle now and again is expected in my life of work.” I stood and found her clothes. They were a bit of a mess now. Muddy and damp and torn in places. I handed them over with an apology.
“It’s alright, I have a change of clothes in my bag.”
I nodded before looking at the remnants of my own pants. They were torn up the legs, but they’d cover what needed to be covered.
We dressed and walked in comfortable silence, stopping occasionally when she got cold so I could wrap my arms around her and warm her up. When we got back to the diner, I kissed her thoroughly before we drove back separately. I had to work hard to focus on the road, as the thoughts of us in the forest kept wandering back into my head.
We stopped once at a remote gas station. We grabbed some food and then I pulled Fern into my car desperately. Neither of us cared who was around and she rode me slowly until we came, our mouths locked together. She was absolute perfection.
When we got back, I resisted the temptation to fuck her senseless again. Or to go and apologise to Gariss for running off. I went straight to the police station and checked on Luke. He had done as I had suggested and decided to do time but keep his dick intact. A quick conversation with him in his cell with no officers around revealed that he’d gotten one of his friends to send the text to Fern. Since he admitted it, I didn’t hurt him too badly. Just enough to never want to mess with her again.
After I’d apologised to Gariss and he’d torn me a new one, he gave me a few days off. Which was just as well, because I knew I was going to struggle to do anything other than bury myself in my mate as often as possible. I wasn’t sure what I’d done to deserve such perfection in my life. But I knew I would cherish it every day and never stop making sure she felt loved and adored. She deserved everything I could give and more. My beautiful love.
Epilogue
Fern
I leaned down and sniffed the warm muffins that were fresh from the oven.
“Wait until they have cooled a bit!” Kiy said, booping me on the nose as I stood up straight.
Once I’d told him about my muffin obsession, he hadn’t stopped making them. Trying each time to find the ideal muffin. I told him that all muffins were ideal. But that hadn’t stopped him from trying different recipes to find the perfect one. He’d even insisted on there being muffins at our wedding.
