Page 40 of Finding Forever

He nipped at my nipple when he said that, creating the faintest sensation of pain before his tongue massaged it away.

“No one else’s,” he growled gruffly, his mouth and hands driving me to the point just before insanity.

“Maverick,” I moaned as his fingers grazed my entrance, but went no further. Instead, he teased the sensitive bud of nerves higher up and moved his fingers in a circular motion until my back had completely left the bed and I was screaming his name.

“Maverick!”

“Good girl,” he said calmly while I felt anything but that.

I watched in amazement as he pulled his fingers away from my center and held them up to his nose, inhaling the scent like his next breath depended on it. Slowly, his tongue ran over his fingers, lapping up my essence.

“Mmm,” he groaned. From the carnal look on his face, anybody would believe he’d just feasted on a five-star meal. But we both knew that wasn’t the case and it made me squirm.

Maverick sat up on his knees before backing himself off the bed. He stood at the foot of the bed as I caught my breath and pushed his briefs down to his feet, erasing any question I might have had about his size and girth. It was magnificently thick and a lot longer than average. Mouthwateringly divine. I wanted a taste, but more than that, I wanted to feel him inside of me, stretching me as my warmth wrapped around him.

Luckily, he seemed to want the same thing as he moved to come back on the bed and push my legs apart again. Maverick’s lips found mine as he eased himself down between my parted thighs.

I inhaled sharply, anticipating discomfort because of the size of him. But Maverick nudged slowly, patiently stretching me inch by inch until he could push in halfway and then fully. With him resting deep inside of me, bliss shot through my body. We made a snug fit, but nothing had ever felt this good in my life.

“You feel like heaven, Gina. Fucking heaven.”

He propped himself up on his forearms above me, his lips a whisper away from mine as he pumped in and out of my body.

“Oh my god,” I moaned, accepting each thrust with a rocking motion of my own hips.

It felt so good I might burst right there on the spot. But I prayed that didn’t happen. I didn’t want anything to stop this moment. I wanted it to last forever. Maverick’s hips moved in a circular motion as he found a rhythm that propelled us both over the edge in record time. I came down from my second orgasm just as his body stilled above mine, the muscles in his already rock-hard abdomen contracting more than the lower half of him convulsed with his completion.

Seconds passed, then minutes with us just lying there in the aftermath. A dewy sweat had broken out over my skin, trying to cool me from the all-consuming heat that Maverick had ignited. I was both tired and exhilarated. Exhausted yet desperate for another round.

As Maverick rolled off me and onto the bed beside me, he pulled me into his strong arms and kissed me hard.

“You’re mine, Gina,” he repeated for the second time. “All mine.”

Content to belong to him and only him, I drifted off to sleep in the arms of a man I never wanted to be without.

Gina

When I woke up the next morning, Maverick was beside me, but already awake. I was nestled in his protective arms and couldn’t remember the last time I’d woken up this happy. Even with my muscles sore from what we’d done last night. I stretched languidly and smiled when Maverick grabbed me up, halting my movements.

“You’re awake,” he breathed against my mouth, before pressing a firm kiss there. I could get used to waking up like this.

Last night had been straight out of my dreams. No man had ever taken his time and paid so much attention to my body's needs. He took note of every moan and every scream. And what eventually made me come undone.

Heaven wasn’t an accurate way to describe it. It transcended that. I felt steady hands kneading at my shoulders as I settled against him. He was sitting up against the massive headboard, but I decided to use his body to prop myself up.

“How do you feel?” he asked softly, his hand brushing my hair off out of my face. I let my head fall back under his ministrations and sighed. God, this man could do no wrong in my eyes. Everything he did to me felt like the culmination of a million different pleasures wrapped in one.

“I feel like I can’t believe we finally did that. On one hand, I can’t believe it took us that long.” Between our work schedules and our children’s extracurricular activities, it was hard to find a time we were both free for a few hours. Let alone free long enough to sneak off for a proper date. “On the other hand, I’m glad it did.”

“I can’t believe it took us this long either,” he agreed.

“Last night was perfect. Absolutely perfect. When can we do this again?” I asked him.

“You’re perfect. And as soon as you want,” he declared, kissing my neck.

“What time is it?” I asked absently.

While last night had been a little slice of paradise, mommy duties called and I knew we needed to go relieve my mom soon.
