Yet, this time—as he hovers over me, looking deeply into my eyes—something deep within cracks open. It’s the box that I’ve been hiding my heart away in. His words are like a thunderbolt right through the center of the sealed-shut lid.

It’s not hearing it. No, it’s more like seeing it. His eyes are revealing his feelings for me. If I know nothing else about this man, I know when his eyes are revealing the truth.

I let it sink in as I root myself to this moment. The here and now are a safe place. I’m safe to give myself to him for now. That’s a start for me. It’s where I have to begin.

He takes my lips in a hard, all-consuming kiss. I can taste my essence, toothpaste, and a hint of the brandy he must have been drinking earlier. I’m so lost in his kiss, I barely notice when he pins my arms above my head with one of his hands.

His other hand rests on my thigh, caressing my skin gently. Teasing me just the way he knows I like. I melt into the sheets, whimpering when he releases my lips.

“I love you,” he says again.

My lids slide closed, and I nod my acceptance of his words. I hear them. I know. I don’t know how much that changes anything, but they’ve gotten through my wall.

When I hear him shift, followed by the opening of a drawer and the rustle of a foil packet, I bite back a sob. We’ve never used condoms after we talked about it, and I told him I was on the pill. Hearing that sound both rubs me raw and gives me a new level of respect for him.

He understands.

I’m just not ready for that level of connection between us. I know him well enough to know this is a decision he’s making for me.

“Cee, look at me,” he says huskily.

I look into his eyes. He slides into my body for the first time in over seven years as he holds the connection. A sob does leave my lips as he slides in. It’s mindboggling how I open for him without question.

My walls yield to him as if it’s his home. My legs wrap around his waist as if they have a mind of their own. Like the perfect puzzle pieces, we fit together as if made for each other and never meant to be apart.

He leans into my ear as his slow strokes stir so many emotions. “I love you so much. I knew you were mine the first time I laid eyes on you. I don’t have it in me not to be yours. If you asked me to die for you, I would.”

Releasing my wrists, he covers both my hands and laces our fingers together. Again, I use his eyes as my guide as our gazes connect. They say all the things my ears and mind won’t allow me to hear.

His eyes speak right to my heart. They tell me all the things I need to know. He leans in and our lips connect.

Our tongues dance together as my orgasm begins to build. His hips pick up the pace to chase it down. He breaks the kiss, his lips part and his cheeks turn red.

That power that has always put me in awe of this man surges to the forefront. It drives into my body, speaking of the possessive protector I can’t help falling in love with. Yes, I’ve fallen in love with him again.

It hits me fast and hard. I can’t deny it, but I still won’t admit it out loud. I can’t for fear the acknowledgment will burn me again. I cling to his fingers like they’re a lifeline as my heart starts to pound.

When my peak hits, it’s like an explosion within. I’m breathless and shattered. Yet, Gregor doesn’t stop. He pushes through my pleasure as I tighten around him.

“Fuck,” he groans. “This pussy is better than I remember. Are you ready for me to take you there, baby? Say the words and I’ll beckon your soul out of your body.”

I give him a lazy smile. I know just what he’s asking me. It’s the reason my body has only ever been his.

“Do it,” I challenge, relishing in what I’ve just unleashed.

No sooner than the words are out of my mouth, he pulls out and flips me onto all fours. He thrusts back into my body from behind. Lifting one leg to plant his foot in the mattress, he begins to pound down into me.

When that’s not enough, he plants his other foot, grasps my hips, and rides me hard. I bury my face into the pillow and start to scream. His grunts and groans fill the air as he works my body.

“Shit, this pussy drives me insane. I’m just getting started, baby. Hold on,” he says through his teeth.

Oh, he plans to go there.

Gregor

That was beyond amazing. Hours of learning my woman’s body all over again. I’ve taken her in every way I know how.
