I laugh despite myself. “Would that be so bad?”
“Theworst.” His hips twitch involuntarily as I squeeze gently. “Because it means I’d die before I got to be inside you. And that, sweetheart… that’s unacceptable.”
I lean down and press a kiss to his chest, right over his thundering heart. His hand comes up to cradle the back of my head.
“Enough exploring,” he growls. “I need you.Now.”
The world whirls. Suddenly, I’m on my back again, pinned beneath the endless, warm weight of him, and his cock is nudging against my entrance.
Lukas reaches down to line himself up with me. That brush of him makes me squirm, but with his other arm bracketing my head and his bulk trapping me in place, there’s nowhere to go. I’m cocooned in him. Swaddled up completely. I’ve never felt safer.
“Look at me, Rae,” he commands in a hoarse voice. “I want you to look me in the eyes as we cross this line together.”
My gaze finds his. Those gray eyes are molten now, burning with something that goes far beyond lust. There’s reverence there. Fear.Hope. Everything he’s spent eighteen years burying, rising to the surface all at once.
And then he begins to push forward.
Slowly.
Inexorably.
Splitting me open inch by devastating inch.
The pain is immediate and sharp, ripping the breath from my lungs. My body fights to accommodate his size, my delicate frame struggling against the sheer breadth of him. He’s sobig, too big, scarily big, and I feel every millimeter of his invasion cleaving me in two.
I whimper.
Lukas freezes. His entire body trembles with the effort of holding back, every muscle locked tight, cords standing out inhis neck. I can feel him pulsing inside me, and the stillness costs him everything.
“Breathe,” he whispers. “Just breathe, sweetheart. I’ve got you.”
I let his voice replace mine.Breathe, Rae. He’s got you.
Then I exhale and unclench. The burn recedes somewhat. It’s still there, and sharp, but more manageable now.
Lukas watches my face, reading every little tell. When my breathing finally steadies, he leans down and takes my mouth in the softest kiss we’ve ever shared. It’s pure love where we’re sealed at the lips.
Then, down where our hips meet, he broaches the final barrier.
Unable to help myself, I scream into his mouth. Lukas swallows the sound whole, burying himself to the hilt as my virginity tears apart around him. The pain is blinding, white-hot, a knife blade splitting me from the inside out. My nails rake down his back hard enough to draw blood.
I feel him pulse inside me. My body is clutching around his girth, and I know he feels it, too—the hot slickness of blood mixing with my arousal, coating him, marking this moment as irrevocable.
Just like that, I’m no longer a virgin.
I belong to Lukas Lazarev now.
