“Faster.” I beg and press my feet to his shoulder.

He shakes his head. “That would hurt you.”

I’m losing my mind because my belly’s gone tight and my inner walls are quickening. A few fast strokes are all I need. I’m cursing myself for choosing this position but I love giving him the power to control my release, knowing he’ll take care of me.

I still can’t help but chant, “Make me come. Please make me come.”

“I always do. I always will.” He tilts my hips forward a little more and slow pounds on me until my entire body flushes, my eyes water and the scream builds in the back of my throat.

I clamp my teeth on his forearm just in time for my body to crack and shatter. He pumps a little more and lets out the most beautiful sound. It’s a mixture between a gasp and a hiss. But it’s the grunt that I love the most. It’s like he’s an animal that can’t help but come and be savage around me.

He pulls out and settles me against his body. He tilts my face to his and kisses me like he’s leading me down to foreplay instead of cuddling. His fingers trail circles on my belly.

“Good morning,” he says and I giggle.

I push away from his arms. “I got to go. They’re waiting for me. You need to get up. The attic lights are not going to fix themselves and you need to check the furnace.”

“Yes, Boss.”

“Oh, by the way, you need to check your email. I looked at that wine bar in our neighborhood. I like it.”

“You think it can work for us?”

I smile. “I do.”

He found the place and, though he looked like he was going to throw up, he brought it up to me as a business we could start together. It would take an equal investment from both of us.

“I still don’t want you to use your 401K, Jax. I can—”

His smile doesn’t fade but his eyes are serious. “I know you can. And we may need it down the road. But we are starting this together and I want us to be equal partners from the start. You get that, right?”

I think about how hard this must be for him, being so proud and all. I remember how he’d flipped over me offering to pay for dinner and how he’d reacted when he found out how much I made. Then I think of how sheepish he’d looked yesterday when he told me about the bar for sale on our drive down here. It’s a nice little place with lots of charm. We can make it our own. That makes me smile even more.

“I get it.”

He pats his lap. “We’re going to own a business. Come here, let’s celebrate.”

I laugh and flick him with water. But as he’s about to get up from the bed, I rush back in the room and straddle his lap.

“I knew you wanted to celebrate.” He kisses my neck.

“I do, but not right now. I know coming to me wasn’t easy and it took a lot of courage. I love you and I’m proud of you for that.”

He’s taken aback but recovers fast, burying his hands in my hair and kissing my mouth. “It’s because of you, Saona. Because I never want to see another day without you.”
