Page 63 of His Forever

His breath caught in his throat as his overly large T-shirt exposed inch after creamy inch of skin. Seeing the dusty rose-tipped nipples had his hands aching to reach out and cup her, an urge he barely controlled, although he could feel his body reacting. Slowly, almost reverently, he let his eyes roam the upper part of her. While he saw the scars she had mentioned, they were nothing to him. Instead, time and again, his eyes were drawn to her breasts. Unable to handle it any longer, he reached up and gently cupped one in his hand. With a whispered, “Beautiful,” he raised his head and took the nipple into his mouth.

Holy shit.His warm mouth and tongue moved over her breast, even as his hand continued to gently knead the other one. With her insides warring over the sensations, she could hear herself moaning low in her throat. With both of his hands now at her breasts as he alternated between them, she was lost in a haze of feeling. His calloused hands were just rough enough. His tongue and lips and mouth were just warm enough. Even through the emotional exhaustion of earlier, she found herself more turned on than she could ever remember being. He stopped his ministrations long enough to gently pull her down so they were laying face-to-face as he cupped her face in his hand and stroked her cheek with his thumb. “Te amo, Marleigh.”

She may not remember much of her high school Spanish, but she remembered whatthose wordsmeant and she looked at him wide-eyed as she said, “Really?”

“Si, mi siempre hermosa, so very much,” he replied as his hand caressed her jaw while the other pulled her closer so they were now chest to chest. Feeling his chest hairs brushing her nipples had her moaning as the sensation shot a need straight to her very core.

“We’ll take this as slow as we need to, but we won’t be going back to the party until you know just how much you mean to me in every way,” he told her as he leaned in and nuzzled the place between her shoulder and her neck. As he finished raising the shirt, she lifted her arms so he could take it completely off, leaving them both naked from the waist up.

Not like I can’t feel how turned on he is right now. She ran her hands over his chest and down his arms. “Zeus?” she whispered.

“Hmm?” he muttered.

“I love you, too,” she replied.

He was unprepared for how her admission would impact him, but the surge of desire that rose up in him had him rolling her to her back so he was partially on top of her. Taking it slowly might kill him, but he was determined that she was going to know down to her bones that she was desired and cherished and adored. He continued his lazy assault of her lips while his hands caressed her down to her waist. Encouraged by her moans, he kissed down her chest to where her scars were, and she nearly came undone when she felt the moisture hitting her abdomen. “Zeus? Why…why are you crying?” she finally asked.

Looking up at her, she could see the emotion he was unashamed of in his eyes. He softly said, “Mi siempre hermosa, to you these are hideous but to me, they show of a battle that was fought and won and I will thank God every night that He saw fit to do that for you. Because you were made for me.”

Her breath caught in her throat at his admission. She had never thought of her scars like he described. However, theywerewarrior marks, each and every one of them and the way he was stroking them and kissing them, she was convinced she would never see them as hideous again. “Thank you.”

“Hmm?” he murmured as he lightly grazed her hip with his teeth.

“My perspective about them just changed thanks to you, Zeus. What? Oh…” she moaned as he eased the shorts down past her hips placing kisses where he exposed skin. When she was finally laying there naked with the most gorgeous flush he had ever seen covering her chest, he began a different kind of assault, one that he was hoping would have her writhing and moaning.

He found that she wasn’t wholly on board with his plan to take things slow and easy when she reached into his shorts and gripped him. Glancing up at her, he wasn’t prepared to hear her say, “Zeus? Please don’t make me wait too long. I know what you’re trying to do and believe me, you make me feel desired and cherishedevery single day. Make me yours.”

Running his hand down her hips, he softly said, “Open for me, mi siempre hermosa, si?” When her legs parted, he found himself scooting down on the bed so he could make sure she was ready. The fact that her heady scent had him nearly coming unglued didn’t help, but he was going to do the best he could. His first tongue swipe had her trying to get away so he placed an arm across her hips while he continued licking her. As he continued, she got wetter and when he added first one and then a second finger to the mix, she nearly came undone in his arms.

Holy hell.His tongue and fingers worked to bring her to the brink of what she was sure was going to be an earthshattering orgasm. By now, her hands were gripping his head and she couldn’t breathe without moaning. “Zeus…oh my God…please…”

Going in for the kill, he increased his pace and when she shattered, he continued through the spasms wracking her body, easing off as she slowly came down. Removing his fingers, he moved back up her body until he could cradle her face in his hands. Kissing her deeply, he felt her small hands gripping him in an attempt to get him to keep going. Reaching down with one hand, he placed it over hers and let her help him move to her entrance.

“Te amo, mi siempre hermosa,” he said while looking at her as he slowly entered her.Damn she’s like coming home. Tight, warm, wet. He knew he wouldn’t last long at all and was glad she had come already because he didn’t want her left unsatisfied.

She moaned when he was fully sheathed in her. She felt…hell, she couldn’t describe how she felt…but she knew he needed to move. “Move.PleasepleasemoveZeus,” she begged.

As he began moving, she wrapped her legs around his waist. The different angle soon had her climbing again and he knew it wouldn’t be long before he followed her. His pace quickened, her moans increased and as he felt her body spasming around him, he leaned down and captured one of her nipples in his mouth. “Zeus!” she moaned as she fell apart. One thrust, two and on the third one, he found himself joining her.

His breathing completely gone, he moved them to their sides still connected as he peppered her face, her lips, her jaw with kisses. He didn’t want to move. Hell, he’d be content to stay right where they were for the rest of his life, but he knew that wasn’t practical. “You okay, Marleigh?” he finally asked her once his breathing returned to a semblance of normal.

“Mmhmm,” she replied as she lay there, completely sated. “Never better. You?”

“I’m beyond okay,” he told her as he kissed her. “And as much as I would like to stay here with you, we should probably get cleaned up and go back to the party.”

She groaned when he pulled out but willingly put her hand in his when he reached out to help her up before he scooped her up and carried her into the bathroom. Turning on the shower, he made sure the temperature wouldn’t burn them before he walked them both into the enclosure. Her hair had come undone from their lovemaking, so he turned her to get it wet before he worked shampoo into her scalp. Her hair finally washed, he took his time soaping her up which soon had her moaning as his hands and fingers searched out every nook and cranny. Turning her around to rinse her, she found him pressed against her and without thinking she tipped her hips back. Taking her at her invitation, they soon lost themselves in the heady pleasure of shower sex.

She heard her phone pinging with an incoming text while she was re-braiding her hair and rolled her eyes, suspecting it was Paulie wanting to know where they were. Once done and with her bathing suit back on, she grabbed her phone from her bag and found that she was correct. Typing out a quick response, she looked at Zeus and said, “I think they’re waiting on us.”

He grinned at her. His mood was such that he didn’t care if they went back to the party, but he knew where they were going to end up at the end of the day and because of that, he was okay with going. “Then let’s not keep them waiting any longer, mi siempre hermosa,” he said, taking hold of her hand.

Back at the party, she blushed seeing Paulie’s knowing grin before turning when she heard, “Princess!”

“Daddy! When did you guys get here?” she asked as she made her way over to her parents.
