Page 62 of Until You Came Along
“I want you.”
“And I want you,” he said, and gently turned my body. “Hold onto the headboard,” he requested.
I did as he said, and he positioned himself behind me, pressing my buttocks against his hips and sliding into my sex from behind. He began to thrust, holding my hips with his strong hands while his moans and gasps grew increasingly loud and uncontrollable.
“You’re going to kill me with pleasure...” he said, his voice hoarse and broken.
His thrusts became stronger and faster, and a monumental orgasm shot through us like lightning, making us cry out without being able to contain ourselves. We both collapsed onto the bed, Hermes on top of me, though he immediately withdrew, turned me over, and kissed me long and sweetly. When we broke the kiss, for a few seconds we just looked into each other’s eyes without saying anything.
“You’re mine, Delfina, don’t forget it.”
“And you’re mine, don’t forget that either.”
“I have to go, darling, because I have a meeting at eight and I need to stop by my house to change.”
“What time is it?” I asked.
“It’s six thirty. What time do you need to be at your office?”
“Nine,” I replied. “Did you sleep well?”
“I slept better than I have in a long time. Sleeping while feeling the warmth of your body was extraordinary.”
“And you didn’t snore,” I stated, looking at him with a smile.
“That’s good for me because it means you’ll let me sleep with you again.”
“Maybe.”
“Go back to sleep, you can rest a bit longer. I’ll call you during the day and we’ll arrange what time we’ll meet. If I can, I’ll pick you up from your office.”
“That’s not necessary because I have my car.”
“In that case, you can leave it in your office garage.”
“Hermes, don’t be so bossy.”
He took my face in his hands and gave me a sweet kiss.
“And you don’t contradict everything I say.”
He got up and went to the bathroom. I curled up in the sheets and closed my eyes, enjoying his scent that had permeated my bed.
“I’m leaving, darling. I’ll call you later. Behave yourself,” he said, giving me a soft kiss on the lips.
I heard him open the door and close it. At that moment, I closed my eyes and fell back into a deep sleep.

I arrived at the office a few minutes before nine and was surprised to see a beautiful arrangement of red roses with a card waiting on my desk. I looked at Julia who was standing beside me and smiling.
“They arrived a little while ago. They’re beautiful!” she exclaimed, with a dreamy look.
“They really are. Let me see who sent them,” I said, approaching the flowers.
“I’ll leave you alone to read it in private. Would you like me to bring you some coffee?” she asked.
“Julia, stop being so formal with me, we have enough trust between us, and yes, I’ll take that coffee, thank you.”
