Bernard’s lips found mine, and I tasted myself on him.
In one quick move, he thrust into me.
I locked my legs around his torso and moaned. “You feel so much better than I remember.”
“So do you.” Bernard placed his arms on either side of the headboard and circled his hips. “Oh, Rachel. I’ve missed you so much.”
I met each thrust with one of my own as we rocked back and forth against each other. When I started to rake my fingers over his back, he lowered his head and took one nipple between histeeth. He sucked and licked before moving to the other one so they were both as hard as pebbles.
I was soaking wet and desperate for him.
And I still wanted more.
I wanted every single part of him to fill me.
Right down to my soul.
Bernard lifted his head and kissed me again, harder this time. I bit down on his bottom lip, and our tongues began a sensual battle for dominance. His pace increased, and he began to thrust harder, moving with wild and animal-like abandon. Another wave of pleasure built within me, and I could barely hear past the pounding in my ears.
I unraveled again, chanting his name as I did.
Bernard’s own release followed soon after, and he held himself still as he emptied himself into me. I kissed his forehead and held him to me. Once his breathing returned to normal, he eased out of me and collapsed onto the mattress. Then he tucked me into his side and kissed the side of my head.
Chapter 14: In depth
Bernard
“Why aren’t you sleeping?”
Rachel lifted her arms over her head and stretched. “I can’t sleep. I can’t believe I’m here.”
Slowly, I reached between us and cupped her face in my hands. “I can’t believe it either.”
Rachel flipped onto her side, so she was looking at me. She placed a hand on my chest, over the pounding of my heart, and the other underneath my chin. I saw the emotion dancing in the depth of her orbs, and it made my pulse quicken.
Was I dreaming?
Was Rachel really here after all this time?
I’d spent so much time dreaming about what it would be like to see her again, to have her in my arms, that it no longer felt real. Yet, here she was, smelling like citrus and lemon and looking at me like I was the only man in the world. She shifted closer, and I could see every individual eyelash.
Her lips lifted into a half smile, and a swell of emotion rose in my chest.
I wanted to take care of her.
I wanted to do everything for her.
And our son.
“I know that look,” Rachel teased, her blue eyes lighting up with amusement. “What are you thinking about?”
“You and Ron,” I told her, pausing to trace my thumb down the side of her jaw. She shivered, and my stomach dipped. “I just can’t believe you’ve been here all this time. Why did you end up moving to downtown LA?”
Rachel removed one hand and let it fall between us. The other moved from my chin to the back of my neck. She played with the hair on the nape of my neck, sending shivers of delight racing up and down my spine.
I knew we should stay like this forever.
“When I first found out I was pregnant, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to keep him,” Rachel whispered, her eyes moving steadily over my face. “Since I never knew my parents, I wasn’t sure if I could do it on my own.”
