Daire took a deep breath and shook his head. “I don’t know why you’re betting on me.”

“Because,” I said, taking his face between my hands, “you once told me you never lose.”

“In a fight. That’s different.”

“It’s not.” I leaned in and brushed my lips over his. “Not if you decide to fight for me.”

The expression in Daire’s eyes was full of something I’d never seen there before—hope.

I slid my hands around his neck to unclasp his necklace. “You’re not a lost cause, D. You’re with me, and I’ll never let you get lost again.”

Daire’s hands moved to my hips as I removed the old pendant and replaced it with the new.

“Perfect.” I smiled at him, and he grabbed my wrist and planted a kiss against my palm. And then he was pulling me forward, holding my face between his hands as he brushed his lips over mine.

This…this was the real Daire. The one who wanted someone to see him. Choose him.

And he was all mine.

The kiss deepened, his tongue sweeping into my mouth and tasting every part of me. I speared my hands through his hair, holding him in place as though if I let go he might disappear. That this moment would have been all in my head. But no, Daire’s hands were on my hips urging me closer, and as I pushed up on my knees and deepened the embrace, my heart felt close to bursting.

“Daire.” I lifted my head, needing to see with my own two eyes what I was feeling in his kiss—and right there, in place of the mystery and the tough wall of defense, was love.

It was etched into every feature of his expression as he stared up at me, open and vulnerable.

“Trust me,” I whispered. “Let me be the one to show youexactlywhat you’re worth.”

If it hadn’t been for Daire’s Adam’s apple bobbing in his throat, I would’ve wondered if he’d heard me. But when he nodded and reached for the hem of my shirt, I helped him tear it up over my head.

I quickly scooted off his lap, ridding myself of my sweats, not about to let him think too hard about what I’d said. If he did that, he might change his mind. He might start to panic and leave. But as I stripped out of my clothes and kicked them aside, I realized the man who’d just torn his own shirt off and unbuttoned his jeans was going nowhere.

Daire’s focus was unwavering as I went to grab the lube out of the side table, where we’d stashed it sometime last week. But when I handed him a condom, he caught my hand and stilled.

“I want to know every part of you, if you want that too. I want to feel every part of you when you fall apart in my arms tonight.” Daire drew me forward, back down onto his naked lap, where his heavy cock stood waiting for me.

I nodded, stroking my slick hands up and down his throbbing length. Daire’s eyes never wavered from mine, his chest rising and falling with each steady pull.

“I want that too.”

He reached down to stop my hand, sliding his palm over mine as he tangled our fingers, getting them slippery and wet.

“Then c’mere.”

The order was soft, but I instantly obeyed, shifting to my knees. Daire wrapped an arm around my waist, trailing his fingers down my crack and in between, teasing my entrance.

My dick jerked between us, the gentle way his finger massaged me causing a shiver of desire to spread through me. He pushed inside, his finger entering me slowly, stretching me, and then he added a second and third. Then I reached for his face and took the kiss I could no longer live without.

A moan of pure pleasure escaped me into him as he removed his hand and replaced it with the wide head of his cock.

“Love me,” he said against my lips, as I slowly lowered onto him. “Because somewhere around forever ago, I fell in love with you.”

My breath caught as I sat there with his life pulsing inside me, and it felt like my heart was beating in time with his as I placed my palm over his chest and closed my eyes.

“I think I’ve always loved you.”

Daire smoothed his hands around my hips to my bare cheeks, and I began to move, slowly at first, deliberately. I wanted to feel every inch of him as he pulled from my body, every inch of him when he sank back in. I wanted to surround him with my body, heart and soul. I never wanted to let him go. I wanted him to know that with me, he was safe. Just like I was with him. That with me, he could let go.

I reached for his hand, bringing it up to cover my heart, then placed mine over his, the steady beat of it creating a rhythm formy hips to follow. I rolled my body against his. Daire’s fingers trailed up my spine and brought my lips back to his, the kiss we shared then a true meeting of the souls.
