His hands palm my stomach as his tongue continues its assault.
“Please, Knox. Please,” I beg, teetering dangerously close to the edge again, my hands flying to his hair and the sheets, not sure where I should put them.
He finally pulls away, smirking, before getting up to grab a condom from his side table.
“You’re the most beautiful fucking woman I’ve ever seen,” he says, his eyes gliding over my body.
I don’t even feel embarrassed that he’s looking at me like that. He makes me feel like I’m the only woman in the world.
He leans down, kissing me deeply before pushing himself inside of me. This isn’t animalistic like it has been for us previously. This feels different.
It feels like we are meant to do this for the rest of our lives. There isn’t anyone on this earth that will make me feel the way Knox does. I know that now, and even though it scares me, there’s no place I’d rather be than in this moment with him.
Our bodies make beautiful music together, moving in perfect harmony.
This is my happy ever after. This moment right now, with this man.
Chapter 11
Knox
It’s more than just sex now. It’s always been more than sex for me, but I’ve been trying to deny that I feel connected to Sophia on a deeper level than I’ve ever felt with someone before.
There’s no denying that now. I’m in too deep, and I have no intentions of trying to dig my way out.
It’s on the tip of my tongue to tell her I love her, but something holds me back.
She wraps her hand around my neck, pulling me closer, our breathing heavy.
“I’m almost there, Knox.” She pants.
“Let go, baby. Let go,” I tell her.
The two of us come crashing down from a high I’ve never experienced before.
“That was…” She trails off, rubbing her finger across her bottom lip.
“Wow,” I finish for her.
She looks over at me, smiling from ear to ear before pulling me in for another long, deep kiss.
“Can we stay here forever?” she asks, pressing her forehead to mine.
“In a perfect world,” I tell her, trying not to think about how my life is never going to be perfect. I’ll never have the things I want. I’ll never have a life with Sophia, away from my dad, and all the responsibilities he’s thrown at me.
“Don’t get lost in your head, Knox. Not right now,” she says, urging me to look in her eyes.
“I won’t,” I promise, but it’s too late for promises.
The looming thoughts of my dad and his unrealistic expectations come creeping in. I’m forced to remember why it’s never worked with anyone before now––why it didn’t work with Sophia before. I’m forced to remember the night that I almost had her but let her slip through my fingers.
I run my fingers through her hair as she trails hers across my chest. She presses a soft kiss to my shoulder. I’m lost in thought, and then I realize she’s fallen asleep. She’s naked, gorgeous, and wrapped up in my body. I couldn’t have asked for a better ending to my day.
I allow myself a few moments. Some time to think about what a life might be like if I were allowed to make my own decisions.
I don’t know when I fall to sleep myself, but my phone ringing wakes the both of us up.
I throw my arm over my face, groaning.
