Placing her hand over mine, she climbed up on her toes and kissed me. There was nothing around us, and that quiet that made me uncomfortable before, now encased us like a bubble, sealing us off from the rest of the world.

Her breath was my breath, her heart was my heart. I knew what I had to do now.

Between kisses and inhales, I spoke quietly into her mouth. “I'm not doing it, I won't risk myself another second. Will you come with me?”

Pushing away, Emery's eyes drifted around my face. “Come where?”

“Wherever the wind takes us. Come with me, we can leave tonight.”

“Are you serious? I thought you wanted—”

Silencing her with another kiss, I threw my arm around her waist. “What I wanted doesn't matter. You were right, it won't bring Zander back. But what I have, that's worth living for—you'reworth living for.”

Twisting her on her heels, I walked her back against the giant fallen tree. Her hands swept up and trapped my face, lips greedily stealing kisses. Her breathing was ragged and heavy as a delicate moan spilled out from the back of her throat.

There were no more words left for us to say. Right then all we had were the emotions draining us to the core.

Slipping her hand down my chest, Emery grabbed my swelling cock. Her fingers stroked the firm muscle, tender and hard, savage and with patience. She was a musician, plucking the strings that worked my heart.

Growling, I couldn't stop myself from wanting to burn our love into the woods around us. Raking my fingers through her hair, I wrapped a thick lock around my palm and tugged her head back.

“Mm,” she moaned, sucking in a sharp rush of air. Biting her bottom lip, she palmed my cock still hidden under my jeans. “You like when I touch you, don't you?”

“Fuck yeah I do. Can't you tell?” Thrusting my hips into her hand, my cock jerked hard. “You do this to me, you make me so fucking hard it hurts.”

I felt like a wild beast, lost in the forest, stumbling upon the last woman on earth. I was going to take her here, just like this, with nature surrounding us like a warm blanket.

Feverishly, I flipped Emery onto her stomach, bending her body over the tree. The curve of the wood made her ass perch up, giving me the perfect position to fuck her.

With a hand in her hair, I worked her pants down her legs. I half expected her to stop me, to tell me that she didn't want to do it out here like this. But she never uttered a word in protest. Her hips swayed, her eyes snapped shut, and her fingers clutched the thick cracks in the bark.

Spreading her legs with my knee, I popped the button on my jeans and freed my cock. Emery groaned with anticipation as she pushed her ass up higher, ready to take my dick deep and hard.

The sun was shining down on us, my skin hot and sweaty as I got lost in my woman. She had told me she loved me. She had said the words I never expected to hear after all I had put her through. She had been broken, she had been exposed to the worse kind of people in this world.

And here she was, baring it all, opening her heart to a soldier from hell.

Slamming my cock inside her with one quick thrust, Emery let out a moan that sent a quiver down my spine. Her pussy was wet, swallowing my length as if she couldn't live without it.

We made love for the first time. Not sex, not a one night stand where years later you'd forget their name. It was love, real love.

Laying over her back, I whispered into her ear. “I'll always love you, you saved me, Emery, in more ways than you'll ever realize.”

Her hand dug through my hair, scraping my scalp as she looked at me over her shoulder. She didn't need to say anything for me to know I had done the same for her.

I saved her, and I would continue saving her for the rest of my life. It didn't matter where we went or what place we ended up. It didn't matter who might come looking for us, I would always be there to protect her.

She was worth the risk of running away, because I knew that no matter what, home would always be wherever she was.
