Drawing her lips to mine, I part them with my tongue and taste the lingering wine on hers.
I know what she’s implying, and that’s good enough for me, but a part of me needs to hear those words to confirm.
“Say it, baby,” I plead against her mouth. “Please.”
“I love you,” she whispers before meeting my gaze. “And it only took four days to realize I’m still head over heels, crazy in love with you that I can’t believe I ever forgot how it felt. But that’s just it—I didn’t, not really. I compartmentalized my feelings in an attempt to move on ’cause livin’ with a shattered heart was unbearable. So I convinced myself you had moved on and that I needed to as well. But comin’ here, findin’ out youhadn’t, and rememberin’ how easy it was to love you made me realize what I’d left behind.”
“Fuck, Maze.” I try to hold back my emotions. “I’ve waited seven years to hear those words. But I’d be lyin’ if I didn’t say I’m terrified you’ll change your mind again.”
At least until Hayes is out of the picture for good and the knot in my stomach goes away.
“I don’t blame you for not fully trustin’ me. Not sure I’d trust me either. But I’ll spend the rest of our lives provin’ it to you.”
I dip my mouth to hers again, this time going slow and steady, swaying to the music. She tightens her hold on me, and I gently cup the back of her neck, never wanting to let her go.
If it wasn’t for this damn physical activity restriction, I’d carry her ass back to my bed, strip her naked, and kiss every inch of her until she begged me to make love to her.
We continue dancing as we make conversation and kissing in between. My heart’s never felt so full and content.
And I’m hoping like hell I never have to go through losing her again because there’s no way I’d survive it a second time.
Waking up with Maisie’s limbs tangled in mine will never get old.
Even listening to her little snores brings me peace.
My house’s been quiet for far too long and my bed empty for even longer. It only took a couple nights to get used to it again.
After we ate dessert last night, we snuggled in bed, she read some more of her book, and then we passed out.
Well…after I gave her an earth-shattering orgasm with my tongue.
After she read more spicy chapters of her book, I had to prove to her the real thing was better than reading about it.
She’ll be gone for several hours today to attend her brother and sister-in-law’s baby shower. I’d go with her since it’s a co-ed party, but showing up with her estranged husband would put the spotlight on us instead of the parents-to-be, so I’ll be here getting things ready for our final date.
However, it won’t be the last. I’ll continue to date my wife until I’m no longer able to breathe.
“Just a few more minutes…” I beg, burying my face in her neck when she tries to slide out from the covers. I tighten my grip around her stomach, pulling her closer.
“Mm…” She hums, taunting my morning wood by rubbing her ass against me. “Let me take care of that for you.”
Before I can stop her, she spins around and slides her hand down to my aching cock.
“Maze…” I groan, my breath hitching at her rubbing me over my shorts. “Don’t start somethin’ you can’t finish.”
“I’ve got a few minutes to spare…” She taunts, lowering down my body as I shift to my back, then she settles between my thighs.
I lift my hips so she can slide my shorts down, but as soon as my dick comes into view, her lips wrap around it.
“Holy shit…” I gasp, her eager tongue twisting around the tip and barbells before she sucks it back into her hot mouth.
I grab a fistful of her messy hair so I can see her gorgeousface. She wraps her fingers around the base of my shaft, squeezing and stroking as she swallows me down.
“Fuck, baby. You take me so fuckin’ good. Just like that…” When she lifts her glassy eyes to meet mine, I nearly drown her in my cum. Goddamn, she’s a dream.
She bobs on my dick like she’s as starved for it as I’ve been for her. It doesn’t take long for my heart to explode and the warmth to build down my spine. I spill down her throat, moaning through the intense release.
My back flattens on the mattress, no longer able to hold myself up, but her tongue licks me clean. Then she so generously slides my shorts back up.
