“It did.”

His lips arch into a half-smile, and I cup his face in my hands. When our eyes lock, I tell the only truth I’m certain of.

“I’ll never leave you. If it were up to me, I’d spend eternity wrapped in your arms. Damien, baby, if you saw in my heart how your name is stamped there in bold letters, there’s no me without you. I love you too much to leave. You’re afraid, but so am I. You can fight the physical threats but accept the fact we aren’t powerful enough to stand against the natural order. Let’s use our time to create memories as two crazy-in-love persons who defied everything to be together.”

Awe transforms his features. He seizes my lips into a feverish kiss I feel from a strand of hair to my little toe. Damien doesn’t just kiss me, he devours my lips. I pant by the time he takes a quick break so he can say, “You’re mine, Bria, I can’t stop fighting, baby. I have to protect what I love the most. Whatever it is, whoever dares, there are no boundaries I wouldn’t cross, no lengths I wouldn’t go just for one more kiss, one more ‘I love you,’ one more maddening moan.”

His kisses mix with his confession, and I love every second, every tingle, every caress that has me going wild. Damien lifts me and places me on the bar table, settling himself between my legs. He yanks every piece of clothing off me, allowing only his breath to warm my exposed skin. He removes my thong, pushing my back down on the marble.

He sheds his clothes, aligning himself with my center, and his skilled fingers awaken every cell of my body.

“Say you won’t question me again. I’ll never allow something bad to happen to you.”

I cup his face and brush my nose against him, whispering, as his hands travel down my arms, “I trust you.”

“Then let me take care of things my way. Give me this.”

If I agree, I’d have to accept every one of his sane or insane measures of protecting me. I raise one finger, and he growls under his breath.

“One condition,” I say.

“Which is?”

“You hold nothing back from me again, and you always discuss it with me first. It’s my life, and I will have a say in deciding something involving me.”

He nods, his lips turn into a victorious grin. He rubs himself against me as I writhe from the need and greed slowly reaching tormenting levels. His arrogant smirk gives away the fact he knows exactly what he does and is proud of it.

“Please, Damien.”

“What do you want, baby?” His hoarse voice rides from the valley of my breasts to my belly, and I toss my head from side to side.

“You in me. Now!”

With a sway of his hips, he thrusts himself inside me. I reach my release with his name pouring out of my mouth. He follows shortly, and when he stills inside me, I want to glue us together like this and never feel one inch of distance between us. My fingers slide down his back, and it dawns on me, his need to keep me safe. We are the same, too selfish to be apart from the other and bold enough to do whatever is necessary to prolong our time together.

And if we don´t get a forever, at least make our time on earth longer. When our breaths calm and our legs are steady enough, he lifts me and carries me to the bathroom.

He places us both in the tub, warm water covering us.

“Thank you for agreeing.”

“How long will I be babysat?” I ask, awakened from the sex frenzy.

“Until we figure out how to stop her from ever approaching you.”

“This could take years. You’re not serious,” I say and bash my head against his chest while he caresses my stomach.

“Baby, they won’t be there all the time. Only when you’re out. They will come inside to check once a day to make sure the alarm system and cameras work properly. I promise it won’t be that bad, and you agreed a few minutes ago.”

“Under pressure.”

He raises a brow questioning, but I kiss him.

I feel better. We found a compromise that works for both of us.

It’s like a silent promise we agree to try to be better from now on.
