"You're up?"

"I can't sleep when you're this close to me and moving so much. It's like you want me to sink my dick inside you and never get out." Ares's voice dropped an octave when he spoke and my body shivered, in a great way.

I gasped because I was never going to get used to him talking to me that way but I loved it.

"I'm not against it at all. I miss feeling you inside of me." I admitted something to him because I wanted him to know he could be open with me. Just as open as I was with him.

"Yeah?" Ares leaned in and kissed my neck, flipped me to my back.

"Yes." He hovered over me as he slapped my thighs apart. "Are you skipping the forepl—?"

My words died on my lips as his fingers dipped into my boy shorts and went to work. Ares sucked on the flesh at my neck as he turned me on, making me wet and ready my body for him.

"I don't ever skip foreplay when it comes to you, baby. I like touching and feeling every part of you at the tip of my fingers. You belong to me, Goldilocks. To us." He growled as he nipped at my skin.

I knew he was leaving a mark, and I didn't care.

"Oh God…" I whispered as Ares's thumb took over on my hot button as he sunk his fingers inside me, breaching me again.

He kept going to work, and as soon as I was ready to leave this world from the peak of my arousal, Ares removed his fingers, and in quick fluidity, he replaced his fingers with him.

I felt Ares everywhere as he was plugged into me like the key that fits perfectly; he was my key.

"Not just any god, love." Ares groaned in my ear as his fingers dug into my hips as pounded inside of me. "Say it for me, tell me again, Goldilocks."

One of his hands slipped between us as he worked hard and pressed that button again, causing me to erupt. My body couldn't take it anymore.

"I love you!" I shouted, and as he shuddered, Ares came undone.

"I won't ever get tired of hearing it," he whispered against my skin. Ares planted kisses all over my face and body, what he could reach. When he hovered over me again, he smiled. "Wait for me, baby. One of these days, I'll scream it out for you too. Wait for me as I waited all these years for you."

Oh man, I loved this man.

Chapter44

Carmen

There was so much that needed to be fixed and changed, but I didn't think it was something to rush. Like Mars, it was two months later, and he still hadn't said much to me, even though I wanted to hear more about what he said in the hospital. I sighed as I concentrated on my project for class, things didn't go back to normal per se, but it was getting better.

As for the colonel, something happened, but the boys didn't tell me. I wanted to find out but they both said in due time, I would know. I would find out. I wasn't worried. Instead, I felt protected. I felt right about everything.

He wasn't going to get away with what he said, and when I found out where he was, he would go to jail. A backbone popped in when I yelled at my mother's dead body, one I should've had a long time ago, but I was glad it was here now.

I just needed that backbone to make a comeback when it came to asking Mars why he wasn't saying anything. I sighed again as I heard footsteps coming toward me.

"Dance with me again, Carmi." Before I could answer, Mars swept me off my feet and pulled me into his arms.

Ed Sheeran's Kiss me had been playing in the background, but I hadn't paid any attention to it until now.

I giggled when Mars twirled me around the kitchen, and then when he pulled me flush to his body, the giggling was gone and entered another sensation. My awareness of Mars was very much alert, and much more alert than it was when I even first met him.

"I know you've been worried for me, Carmen."

"I have."

"You don't have to. I'll come around."

His words sent a wave of energy and sadness because while he said this to me, I wanted him to tell me about what he said in the hospital and how he broke down and said I was also his. I want him to say it again.
