Page 87 of Her Chosen Protector

He was happy to oblige. He broke off the kiss and scraped his teeth against the burgeoning bud.

He thought she might snatch him bald. She spread her legs wide, and he couldn’t resist her invitation.

He positioned the head of his penis at her entrance and started a slow slide into her tight wet depths. He never stopped watching her face, checking for any signs of duress. Her muscles were clamping down on him so hard, he was afraid he was hurting her.

She dug one foot into his ass, avoiding his wounded side.

“Don’t hold back or I’ll have to hit you again,” she gritted out.

Asher barked out a laugh. She lifted her hips and took more of him, then moaned.

“Eden, was that a good sound, or bad sound?”

“So good, let’s do it some more.” She pressed up again, only this time he pushed downwards. He thought his head would explode as she welcomed all of him. He pinched her nipple, and she groaned.

He had to move. He had to. So, he did. Her smile was ecstatic. She reached out and stroked his jaw. “Oh, Asher, it was just like I dreamed.”

He pumped harder and she met him thrust for thrust. He was dying and she was talking. He had to do something to make her come. He moved his hand from her breast and reached between them to touch her clit. She sighed with delight, her eyes closing.

“Open your eyes.”

Her lids opened slowly.

He kissed her again. She was his Eden. Her hand moved on the side of his body that wasn’t injured. Then her nails dug in as she started to thrash underneath him. She was panting. So close. Just one more thrust. She let out a loud moan as her channel clenched his cock so hard, they were fused into one being.

He shuddered and groaned as he released everything into Eden. His heart, his soul. Everything he was.

She snuggled under the hotel duvet but didn’t bother with the pillow when she had Asher’s chest instead. He’d just gotten done telling her about his time at the hospital. It scared the hell out of her.

“Why do you think they’ll let me in next time?”

“I’ll put you on the list of people to notify and visit. It’ll be fine.”

Eden thought about having to drop everything and flying to find out about Asher’s health.

“We’ve been living in a vault again. Only this time there’s room service and we could go outside if we wanted to.”

He looked down at her. “How do you figure?”

“It’s a time out of place. For three days, we’ve gorged on sex and gotten to know one another. You surprised me when you said your favorite color is yellow. Never would have guessed that, Sailor.”

Asher chuckled.

“But we haven’t talked once about the future.”

He sat up in the bed and put a mound of pillows behind him, hitching her up with him so he could look at her. “No, I’ve been very clear about the future. You haven’t been listening.”

“Huh?” That was totally out of left field. He looked serious as a heart attack.

“Asher, I don’t know what in the hell you’re talking about. You have not once talked about the future.”

“Sure, I have. I’ve made it clear that I want your heart and soul, and you already have mine. What could be more clear than that?”

Oh my God, how did I miss that?

Take a breath. Don’t scream.
