“So, what made you do it?”
“Do what?” I pretended not to know what he was talking about as he pulled out and rolled off of me to my side. I was sweaty and panting for my next breath, but I had never felt this good in my life. I don’t know what it is, but for the first time, I felt free and without inhibitions; all barriers were down between us, and it had made the sex freaking phenomenal.
I guess it was the same for him because even now, he couldn’t keep his hands off me, and we’d already done it twice. He trailed his finger along my collarbone as he propped his head on his hand to look down at me. “The picture, what made you post it?”
“No real reason. I just thought it was time, is all.”
I rolled and threw my leg over his hip, and he wrapped his arm around me, bringing me closer to his warmth. I felt giddy and alive and so in love. There was a smile in my heart that only he could put there, and I knew what it truly felt like to be with one’s other half.
I’d always known or rather suspected that Ryder and I were soul mates, even before Char mentioned it. There was just something, some otherworldly feeling that could not be put into words, but I always sensed it. Only last time, there was always a blockage of some kind that was missing now.
I felt open and whole, as if some integral part of me had been healed, and there were no longer any dark clouds blocking out the sunlight of my life. I felt the kind of happiness that directors try so hard to portray through their camera lens but always fail because true happiness is not an act.
That feeling convinced me, more than anything else ever could, that this time was going to be sweeter, better, with no pitfalls or hiccups. This time, nothing and no one could tear us apart. I felt it in myself and saw it in his eyes that we were finally one in every sense of the word.
Looking back at those times when I thought I was losing my mind and that my life was fractured, it was hard to believe that there would be a day like today. How could I have known then, when I was so broken and alone, that we would find our way back to each other and be stronger and better than before?
I wouldn’t wish that hell on anyone, but to be honest, if I knew it would get me back here to where I wanted to be, I’d do it all again, theoretically, of course. I’m not about to put myself through that mess again because it would mean being apart from him, and that was something I couldn’t even bear the thought of.
“I love that smile.” He kissed my nose as I rocked against his thigh. We’d made love twice already, once as soon as he walked through the door and then again right after. The hunger and need for each other were too much to hold off for even a second.
But now I wanted him again as if I hadn’t been filled with him twice before. There was something wild and untamed beating away inside me and concentrated between my thighs, which he seemed to understand without me saying because the smile on his face changed, and the light in his eyes became more pronounced as he studied me before turning me onto my back and slipping inside me again.
There are no words to describe what it feels like to be filled to completion by the lover of your heart. No expression can ever convey the feelings of joy and deep bone jarring pleasure I felt as he filled my tightness with his length.
“Stay there, don’t move.” The words were shaky, and heat filled on my tongue as I shivered and clamped down around his cock. I held him captive with my body and eyes as he looked down at me, holding still as I’d asked. “I just want to feel you like this for a moment.”
Since we’d burned off the lust in the first two rounds of passionate lovemaking, I wanted to take my time now and enjoy the feel of him inside me, of us being one, and he played along. I felt him throb and twitch inside me as my body released its juices around his girth, and when he gritted his teeth and fought to stay still, giving me what I wanted, I took pity on him.
No words were spoken as I reached up and cupped his face bringing his lips to mine, and then started to move my hips, telling him without words that it was okay to move now. I cried out when he went deep, and he started to pull back, no doubt thinking that he’d hurt me. “Don’t you dare.”
