Page 34 of Inescapable Gravity

"I hoped that we could-"

He slipped a finger up inside of her.

"Oh!"

He grinned and gently swirled his finger inside of her. "Like that?"

She opened her mouth to speak and he slipped another finger in with the first.

Her knees buckled a little but with his hand around her wrists and his hand securely between her thighs, she remained almost in place.

A quick look up at her face told him what he needed to know. Her eyes were nearly closed. Her lips slightly parted and her nipples pressed against the fabric harder and tighter than before.

The spot over her breast where he'd wet the fabric with his mouth was wrapped tightly against her, the sight almost lewd in nature.

He was so proud of her.

So damn...

"I love you, Heather."

His voice was deep, seeming to come from his very soul. "I don't know how I lived without you, but now that I have you back in my life, I'm going to keep you... As long as you want me to."

She bucked against his hand and he felt her slick curls against his palm.

It was so much better than all of the nights he'd imagined making love to her. So much more visceral than he could have conceived.

And she was there.

Riding his hand, her eyes fixed on his.

Glazed over.

Her lips full and open.

Had there ever been a woman as wonderful and giving as she was?

"I want..." she sagged back against the wall, her breath making her voice almost impossible to hear, "I want..."

"Tell me." He kept his voice gentle, but his fingers pushed in deeper, curling into the walls of her sex coming close, so damn close to heaven. "Give me the words."

"I want to come."

She blushed at her own words, turning her head to the side to hide the flush of color that flooded her cheeks.

"Look at me, Heather. I want to see you."

It was only a moment to wait before she obeyed him and turned her head. He met her eyes, making sure she was focused on him, and then he plunged his fingers back into her body and his fingers curled into the textured flesh at the front of her sex.

He saw the moment that she felt the difference.

And then he watched as she rose up on her toes with his hand working at her and exploded all over his hand.

It felt like magic.

She was floating and still, she felt the gravity of the earth pulling her closer to him.
