Clinging to him, she let go of the emotions she’d strapped down inside her. “I love you.”
He didn’t force her to repeat the words, but he did shake his head to make sure he’d heard them correctly. Then he pressed a kiss against her damp throat and tightened his arms around her waist. She’d yet to stop shuddering. For that matter, so had he.
“Did you hear me?”
“I did.”
She slipped back to frown at him, her cornflower eyes sleepy and satiated. “This is when you say it back.”
Oh, damn, this felt good. So much better than he’d ever dreamed.
He smudged his thumb over her cheek and blinked at the wetness he found. “You cried?”
“A little. Post-orgasmic tears. Spanking release. It’s cathartic.”
Her matter-of-fact explanation ripped a laugh from way down deep. “Oh, honey, I love you. More every minute I hold you in my arms.”
“It shouldn’t be this easy, should it?” She studied him so unwaveringly that he had to fight the urge to look away. “Where’s the angst?”
“Oh, shit. After what we went through to get here, you ask that?”
“Yeah. Because none of it seems to matter anymore. I know we have a lot to work through, and a few therapy sessions won’t solve—” She took a breath. “Sorry. Rambling again.”
“It’s okay. I just stand back and let you go.”
She clutched a handful of his hair. “You know me so well. I look at you and know you see me. I know you too.”
“Not everything.”
“We have time to learn. And call me crazy, but I think rejecting something so obviously perfect just because I’m scared or you don’t want to hurt me or think I’m not ready is, well, idiotic.”
He couldn’t help finding her jutting lower lip absolutely adorable. The woman sure knew how to pout. His cock would soon be raring to go once more, and he hadn’t even left her snug, silky pussy yet. “I’m idiotic?”
“A little.” She kissed his nose. “I still love you.”
Playfully he smacked her bottom and delighted in the slow undulation of her around his length. Oh, yeah. They’d be going again soon. No freaking doubt. “I appreciate your high tolerance level for my faults.”
“All part and parcel of finding your ideal mate. But I do have one request.”
“What’s that?”
She rimmed her nail along the collar of his shirt. “I know I should’ve asked sooner, and it’s probably too late, but is Penny still available?”
He tried not to grin. “Nope. Sorry. She was sold.” He could only tolerate her crestfallen expression for a moment before he tipped up her chin with his thumbs. “To me, and she’s waiting at my place for you to come get her. Assuming you can have pets here?”
“No way. Really? I can definitely have pets here.” Her exuberant hug had the added benefit of crushing her breasts to his chest and rubbing her clit against the base of his still-eager cock. “God, you are the best boyfriend ever.” She edged back and looked at him warily. “Assuming you are. My boyfriend, I mean.”
“Unless you wanna run off to Vegas…” When her eyes went wide, he laughed and cupped her beautiful face in his hands. “We’ve got time for that yet. Along with that whole barefoot and pregnant thing. You do know what town you moved to, right?”
She frowned. “I thought that was an old wives’ tale or something about Crescent Cove.”
“Well, I can’t say for sure, but I did see that human interest story on the news. It’s like a big phenomenon.” He glanced down between them where she was still firmly seated on his cock. “We probably should’ve had this talk before we made love without a condom in Babytown, USA, huh?” His tone was wry.
She rubbed her fingers over his short beard. “You don’t seem very worried.”
“Nah. Whatever happens with us is always right on time.” For an instant his gaze lingered on her belly and he let himself imagine.
No, he didn’t mind the idea of her round with their baby one bit.
