Natalia was tempted to gather the fabric before it slipped too far, but he caught her wrist.

“Don’t do that. I want to see you, all of you,” Alexei said.

She let her arm drop, and the dress finally pooled at her feet. She stood before him now, merely in matching black lace panties and bra. An animalistic growl slipped from Alexei’s lips, sending a shudder of anticipation down her spine.

“Take the rest off,” he ordered.

Feeling unexpectedly playful, she wagged a finger at him. “Only if you do the same.”

“Challenge accepted.” Alexei grinned.

To her delight, he took off his jacket and started unbuttoning his shirt. In response, Natalia unclasped her bra, pleased to feel his gaze on her breasts, her stiffening nipples.

Soon enough, both of them were nude. She undid the ribbon holding her hair in place. His breath caught. Natalia took one look at him and realized she wanted him, all of him, to herself.

What a selfish thought. Then again, when was the last night she wanted something this much? Alexei closed the distance between them. He brushed his fingertips along her cheek before curling his fingers into her unbound hair.

"I've wanted to do this all evening." Before she could answer, he leaned down and plundered her mouth.

She found herself leaning closer, one hand resting against his chest. His heartbeat echoed beneath her fingertips while she kissed him furiously back. He deepened the kiss, and she automatically sucked down on it.

Alexei slid his hand to her waist, and still kissing, led her to the bed. Natalia ended up lying on her back, gazing up at the only man she’d ever loved. Maybe love was the wrong word to use, because in some ways they were still practically strangers to each other. Still, he was the only man she ever considered.

He joined her, straddling her in bed. Alexei left a trail of burning kisses on the side of her mouth, her neck, her chest. Her breasts, he kissed reverently, before closing his mouth on one nipple. Alexei bit down, making her moan. He lifted his head, and must’ve seen the expression on her face, because he grinned, and marked her other one as well.

Then he moved lower, kissing his way downward, to her ribs, belly, and finally the valley between her legs.

“Already so wet for me,” he murmured, then plunged his tongue into her waiting pussy.

Natalia gasped, groaning as he tasted every inch of her. He licked and sucked, swiping his tongue around her clit.

“Don’t come yet,” he said. Unable to speak, she could only nod. Alexei lifted his face, licking his lips.

“How do you want me?” she asked him.

“On fours,” he said, positioning her on the edge of his bed.

Natalia parted her legs, eager to feel him inside her. He gripped her hips, then entered her in one smooth push. She thought she was ready for him, but the length and hardness of him took her breath momentarily away. Natalia loved it, though, liked the feel of him in her. He paused, but then she begged him to move.

Alexei’s momentary hesitation finally melted away as he started to ride her. He alternated between slow and fast strokes, quickly finding a rhythm that suited them both. Soon, he reduced them both to panting, needy messes.

At his next push, he found her sweet spot. Natalia gasped, arching her back at the sudden flare of pleasure. Alexei kept aiming for that spot, and the pressure building inside her threatened to burst.

“I want to hear you scream my name, Natalia,” he said, slipping his fingers to her clit. One pinch, and Natalia shattered. Her mind flew a thousand feet in the air. The room fell away from her line of sight as she climaxed on his member.

Natalia collapsed on the soft black sheets, feeling boneless. Alexei slowly pulled out of her. She heard him retreat to his bathroom, but, to her relief, he soon returned with towels in hand. He cleaned them both up. Moments later, the mattress shifted as Alexei joined her, draping his silken, muscled body next to hers.

The room fell quiet. Only the rain outside disturbed the silence. For a while, they simply lay facing one another, not speaking. Alexei reached for her hand beneath the blankets. She threaded her fingers through his without thinking.

“That was ... wow,” she said.

“Wow?” Alexei lifted an eyebrow. “I’ve never heard that one before.”

“None of the women you’ve been with before complimented you in bed?” Natalia asked.

“Oh, I’ve received compliments.”

Her face fell, and Alexei caught her expression because he leaned in closer for a kiss. Normally, Natalia could control her emotions better, but around him and in this intimate moment, it felt impossible.
