“Kieran.” Her head falls back against the wall, fingers gripping my shoulders as she rolls her hips. “Don’t make me wait. Please. I’m begging you.”

I chuckle, stealing kisses down her neck. “I’ll make you a deal, wife.” I nip at the skin, making her moan. “I won’t tease you tonight—” Another bite. “If you agree to one thing.”

“Anything,” she pants as I sink my teeth in harder.

I flick my tongue over the spot. “Careful promising me that, mo chuisle.”

“I mean it.” Her eyes meet mine, hand sliding up my neck to cup the back of my head. “I’ll give you anything.”

I swallow hard, not having expected that response. But it makes it easier to answer, “I want you to wear your ring again.” I let her guide my face up to hers, foreheads pressed together. “Your wedding ring.”

The softest smile pulls at her lips. “I would have been wearing it if I knew where it was.”

Fuck, that makes my cold heart warm a little. “I’ll give it to you after.” I steal her lips in another kiss, rocking my hips forward until the head of my cock is pressed to her entrance. “Now, take me nice and deep.”

Her head tips back as I push in. Eden doesn’t want slow or gentle, so I don’t give her that. I give her a bruising grip, bite marks on her neck, and a fast pace that has her clinging to me. I fuck her relentlessly, molding her beautiful body so that she never forgets just who she belongs to.

“Yes, Kieran. Yes!” Her screams echo off the bathroom walls, filling the room, and I fucking love it.

“You feel so fucking good, mo chuisle.” She rips at my hair, making my scalp burn, and the pain turns me on more. Her knees dig into my sides as she rides me, meeting me thrust for thrust. “So perfect. Taking your husband so well.”

“Kieran, please.” She’s trembling, on the edge, and I always give her what she needs. “Please, make me come.”

I pin her against the wall, driving in harder while bringing my mouth down her throat and clamping down. Eden cries out, and I push deep inside her, rolling my hips to grind against her clit as I threaten to break skin with my teeth. Her pussy clenches around me, her orgasm slamming into her, and the feeling is so euphoric, I can’t hold back. Thrusting all the way in, I come hard, filling her as she moans my name.

It takes a minute to collect myself, and when I finally do, lifting my head, I find Eden looking at me with soft eyes. She guides my mouth to hers. The kiss isn’t soft or gentle—we don’t do that—but it’s slower. Intense.

She breaks the kiss, but I don’t pull back. Our noses bump against each other, and her hands hold me in place. The position is intimate, but I don’t shy away from it.

“I thought I lost you today,” she says softly.

“You never will.”

Her teeth tug over her bottom lip. “I think I understand now what you went through.” One of her hands slides down to my jaw, brushing over the scruff there. “I was so scared when I saw you unable to breathe. I can’t imagine what it would have been like to go days without being able to find you, just for you not to remember me.”

I shake my head gently in her hold. “We’ve moved past that.”

“I know.” Her beautiful eyes are filled with sorrow. “But I understand it now. For a brief moment, I thought I lost the one person I love. And I will rip everything apart to make sure that never happens.”

I stop breathing. “What did you say?”

Eden tentatively smiles. “I should make you work to hear it again. Isn’t that what you always do to me?”

My fingers flex against her arse. “Don’t you dare.”

She huffs a small laugh, her fingers playing with the short hairs at the nape of my neck. “I love you, Kieran. A part of me has since you found me, and it was why I couldn’t push you away. I feel you like a second soul, like a piece of me is missing when you aren’t around, and I don’t want to ever lose you.”

It’s the most vulnerable she has been with me. I had to take every leap alone this time, but it was worth it. Because Eden loves me.

Dipping my head, I whisper against her lips, “I love you, mo chuisle. No matter what, I will never let you go.”

She smiles against my lips. “Next time, maybe start with showing me some pictures?”

A chuckle rumbles up my chest. “There will be no next time.”

“Deal,” she murmurs as she pulls me into another kiss, one that feels so right and claiming that I don’t care about everything waiting for us tomorrow. Not when I have everything I’ve ever wanted right here in my arms.
