Who would have thought?
Because I can now, I grab her and kiss her. I pull her closer to me and we let the deep, intense passion overcome us all over again.
God, I have missed this. I don’t know how I’ve managed to keep away from her all this time. I thought this was what needed to happen, we both assumed that this was for the best, so now…
Well now nothing is going to stand in our way, and that is really special.
I lace my fingers through Isabella’s hand and lead her to the bedroom, knowing that this is the first day of the rest of our lives. Me and Isabella, and our baby too. I can’t contain my joy, it’s actually explosive in me, and it seems to be the same for Isabella as well because neither of us can get our clothes off quick enough.
God her naked body is gorgeous, it’s absolutely stunning. I have always thought that about her, but now it hits me really hard. Maybe because now she really is mine. That possessive protective side of me that I have been trying to control rolls free.
She ismineat long last.
But as I rest the weight of my body on top of Isabella’s body, and I slide inside her, things change. The same rapid, desperate heat that has always consumed us before slows down a little, but not because the passion has subsided.
Nothing like that at all. It seems to hit us both that we actually don’t need to be frantic and wild anymore, because there are no deadlines looming over us. There isn’t any reason to rush because the future is stretched out in front of us.
I move slowly, I thrust carefully, taking care to kiss Isabella all over. This is much more like making love than having sex, but it’s somehow just as awesome in a very different way, I rest my forehead on Isabella’s and we stare into one another’s eyes as the thrusts bring us to the peak of pleasure together, creating an explosion of pressure cooker proportions.
Even though we didn’t think it was going to happen, it seems like we were waiting to get our hands on each other the whole time. We put our lives on hold until we could be back here, right where we belong.
In bed together, clinging to one another like there is no one else in the world.
That has always been my favorite thing about being with Isabella, so I bask in the sensation now.
Iknownow, that it doesn’t matter how much we shouldn’t suit one another, that we’re perfect together. That it just works. I couldn’t be more excited to see what the future holds for us. I can imagine a true happily ever after with Isabella. My fantasies regarding her aren’t just sexual anymore. I imagine us hand in hand, facing our future together, and it’s going to be beautiful, I just know it.
ChapterThirty
ISABELLA
Seven Months Later…
Sometimes I can’t quite get my head around the fact that this is my home now. This mansion which is gorgeous and stretches out as far as the eye can see, is my home. I was nervous to move in, I didn’t know if it was a good idea, to be honest, but Olivia encouraged me.
Surprisingly, my best friend and Elijah’s daughter has been our biggest supporter. The more she sees us together, making one another blissfully happy, the more she wants us to stay together forever. It almost seems silly now that there was a time when she was the one person that we thought we had to hide from most of all.
But she’s definitely gotten softer since things have heated up with her boss. Somehow in the middle of a chaotic time in her life, she seems to have found love for herself which is actually incredible.
I couldn’t be happier for her.
“There you are.” Elijah scoops me up in his arms and runs his hands over my stomach, I can just see how thrilled he is to become a father this time around. Everything is so different for him than it was when June was pregnant with Olivia. Everyone is in a different place in their lives. I know there won’t be any substitution for what happened in the past with Olivia, but I also know he’s going to do what he can to make up for everything.
This time he’s going to be the father he has always wanted to be. Our baby will be so lucky. I can’t stop thinking about how lucky we both are as he spins me around to kiss me.
“I do love you, you know,” he murmurs in between kisses. I adore him saying those words, they are absolutely delicious. The best part is he says them all the time which means I get to bask in his glow all the time. “You are the best thing that ever happened to me.”
“I love you too,” I half whisper back, my heart beating with joy as I stare deep into his eyes.
Honestly, I knew that I wouldn’t meet anyone like him in my life, I knew that everything with Elijah was different, but I didn’t think I would get the chance to have him in my life forever. I will never take him for granted, because I know how great this all is….
“Whoa.” But all of a sudden that happiness is whipped out of my lungs as a strange pain crushes in my stomach. I double over, gripping onto myself as the heat of agony radiates through my body.
“Fuck, this hurts. This is bad…”
I’ve been feeling funny twinges all day long, but this is the first time things have been truly painful like this. I don’t think I can even stand up anymore.
“Oh no, what can I do?” Elijah asks in concern. “How can I help you?”
