Our kiss is ravenous. It feels like our first but also like I’ve been kissing her for years. Her mouth is mine and no one else’s.

When her legs part and I feel them wrapping around me, I grind myself against her, and the soft moan she hums in my ear is the most beautiful sound I’ve ever heard.

Lifting up, I stare down at her and soak up the sight of her splayed out beneath me.

She’s here. She’s in my bed, and she’s mine.

With her soft hands latched around my neck, she plays with the hair on the nape as she says, “I feel so safe with you, Caleb.”

“You are safe with me, Briar.”

Leaning down, I kiss her again. The next few minutes are full of touches, kisses, and need. And like I told her, I don’t want to stop. And like she said, she doesn’t stop me.

She doesn’t stop me when I tug her shirt over her head.

She doesn’t stop me when I peel down her pants.

She doesn’t stop me when I touch her, sliding my fingers into her soaked cunt.

We are naked and alone, and there is nothing stopping me as I bring our bodies together.

Somewhere in the back of my mind, I realize that I’m being reckless with my own heart. As I thrust inside her, it feels as if I’m getting everything I want, but am I? At any moment, I could lose her. It could be in an hour, a day, or a year, but that’s a pain I will eventually face.

Being inside Briar feels like heaven. Like we were made for each other.

Her body is clenched around mine. She's muffling her moans in the crook of my neck as I rock into her. The sensation of her shivering around me sends me over the edge, and I bite my own lip hard enough to stop me from crying out as I fill the condom between us.

When our bodies are spent, we lie in that position for a long time. She’s busy catching her breath, and meanwhile, I’m too scared to see the look on her face. Did she regret that? Does she feel terrible?

It was wrong of me to take advantage of her during a time when I should have been consoling her, but I’m falling head over heels for this woman. There is no reason for my actions.

She is my reason.

After slowly lifting up, I stare into her eyes, checking for signs of regret or sadness. Softly, she smiles.

“Are you okay?” I whisper.

“I’ve been wanting to do that for a long time,” she replies, fighting a wide grin.

I wish I could smile in return, but I don’t understand what that means. Was I just a fling to her? Just something to check off her list?

Feeling like a fool, I decide to blurt out the truth. “I like you, Briar. A lot.”

Her hand caresses my cheek. “I like you too.”

I want to know more. I want to know if she’ll leave him for me. I want to be sure that this meant as much to her as it did to me. Instead, I slide my dick from inside her and pull off the condom.

Then I lie back in bed with her and hold her tightly in my arms. After a few minutes, she falls asleep there, but I don’t.

I can’t help but feel like this was either the greatest or worst moment of my life. Because if she doesn’t end up with me, then I will forever look back at this night as the night I had everything I wanted, only to have it ripped away. The catalyst of my earth-shattering pain.

But even knowing that it could end in heartbreak, I’d still do it again.

Present Day

I’m leaving the office early today. I’m struggling to concentrate on work. There’s too much on my mind, and to make matters worse, Briar is home alone with Dean.
