Suddenly my eyes felt too heavy to open, but I managed a weak nod. “Mhmm.”

Dan huffed in amusement. A second later, I heard him ask, “Rafe?”

“Mhmm.” I was too worn out now to even form words.

“Can I stay over?” He almost sounded a little vulnerable as he asked the question. My eyes popped open, tongue darting out to wet my dry lips.

“Of course,” I croaked, nodding quickly. Then, because he still looked a little uncertain, I rushed out, “I want you to.”

A huge grin spread over his face. He leaned down to grab our damp towels off the bedroom floor. “I’ll be right back, kitten.”

I must’ve dozed off, because it seemed like only seconds later that I felt him gently wiping the lube from my skin with a warm cloth. Then the room beyond my closed eyelids grew dark as he turned off the bedside lamp before climbing into bed.

He nestled himself up against my back, bending his knees to slot them against mine. A strong arm looped around my middle and tugged me tighter to him.

Just before I fell asleep, I felt him lean over and press a soft kiss to my cheek.

Chapter Forty

Couple-like Territory

Rafe

I woke up at some point in the night desperate to pee, so with a tired groan I climbed out of bed and dragged my feet to the bathroom, my eyes still mostly closed.

As I was getting back into bed, Dan roused and sleepily reattached his head to shift onto his back as he mumbled, “You okay, baby?”

“Yeah,” I croaked, curling into his side and resting my head on his chest with a sigh.

He slid his arm underneath me to rest his hand on the swell of my ass, thumb sweeping slowly over my skin, making me wriggle closer and sling my leg over his. He lifted his head off the pillow to kiss the top of mine, and I heard him inhale with his nose buried in my hair.

When his hand drifted lower and he began trailing his fingertips lightly along the cleft of my ass, I moaned sleepily and felt my cock twitch with interest against his hip.

“Are you still awake, kitten?” Dan whispered.

“Mmm.” I turned my cheek to press a kiss to his chest, breathing him in. He was warm and solid and smelled so good.

Dan’s hand splayed over my ass cheek and squeezed gently, making a tendril of lazy pleasure curl through my belly. I moaned again and shifted my hips, my breath catching as my stiffening cock rubbed against him.

As I began to slowly grow more awake, I raised my head and shifted a little higher so I could find his lips in the dark. He kissed me back instantly, lifting his free hand to cup the back of my head. I sank my tongue into his mouth, my dick jerking eagerly when he groaned and trailed his fingers between my cheeks again.

Teasing pleasure shot through me when a fingertip brushed over my hole. Deepening the kiss, I slid my hand down his front to grasp his cock, moaning when I felt how stiff it was. Dan groaned and circled my hole with his fingertip, making my breaths start to shallow.

In the next instant, he’d rolled me onto my back and nestled his hips between my thighs, still kissing me. My legs automatically wrapped around his waist, and I was breathing faster when he eventually broke the kiss to reach for the lube and coat his fingers. He lifted his hips slightly and burrowed his hand down to reach between my legs and circle my hole with his slick fingertips, making me gasp.

It wasn’t long before we were writhing together feverishly as he pounded his cock inside me, groaning hoarsely into my neck. I was clutching his back tight, moaning with every breath and desperately clinging to his snapping hips with trembling legs.

The friction of his stomach sliding over my cock was making it leak, and he kept his thrusts tilted at an angle that meant he was grinding against my prostate, making me weak with pleasure. My orgasm rushed up on me, fast and sudden, and I shuddered with a desperate moan as I clenched around his cock and felt my cum spurting onto my stomach.

Dan groaned at the feel of it, his hips speeding up until he was pounding into me frantically, then he stiffened and plunged his cock deep. A strained groan vibrated against my neck as he came, cock bucking inside me. When it ended, he sagged and lifted his head to find my lips with a slow, sated kiss.

After carefully sliding his cock free, he collapsed on his back beside me and immediately tugged me into his side, getting us back into the position we’d been in before. Once more, he kissed the top of my head and inhaled deeply, tightening his arm around me as we both dozed back off.

It felt like only seconds later that I was jolting awake to the sound of my alarm. Groaning tiredly, I rolled over to turn it off and stayed where I was for a few moments, my face smushed into the mattress and my arm dangling off the edge. I knew if I let myself drop back off, I could sleep for several more hours, so I reluctantly dragged myself out of bed.

“Hold on, kitten.” Dan’s sleep-rough voice made me look back as I rubbed my face. Some of the tiredness fled at the sight of him, and I smiled as he reattached his head and propped himself up on his elbows.

“Morning,” I croaked. “Want to come shower with me? You probably should, seeing as you’re gonna be wrestling all day.”
