Her breath caught in her throat. He nudged her legs wider and positioned himself between them.
“Sam…” It was a half-gasp, half-cry. “Oh, my god.”
He used his fingers and mouth to open her up, penetrating her in a way that had her squirming and moaning loudly. Her response spiked his lust again.
She fisted her hand in his hair and bucked her hips upward. He took her right to the brink and let her ease back down several times before a precise stroke of his fingers sent her over the edge.
As she was still shuddering, he rolled on another condom and surged into her with one thrust. She wrapped herself around him, matching his movements and clinging to him with such eagerness and trust that he experienced an intense rush of possessiveness.

He’d experienced everything else tenfold—desire, lust, affection, caring. But he’d always stopped short, blocked by the wall, when love, with all its weaknesses and vulnerability, loomed. He’d never thought much about what would happen if the wall crumbled.
