“Thank you,” she murmurs.

“You’re welcome.”

I bend down to kiss her warm, bare skin, and she pauses for a moment again, her eyes fixed on mine. She opens her mouth to speak, but quickly purses her lips and drops her bare shoulders back down.

“What do you want to say, Freya Girl?” My brow draws together, and I smirk at her. This isn’t like her.What is she thinking?

She doesn’t deny it, so I wait. After a moment, she sucks in a breath and holds it. This little stalemate of hers has me anxious. Finally she exhales and clears her throat.

“I’m in love with you.”

My mind goes blank for a moment while my heart hammers. Now I’m the one holding my breath. It’s as if she has struck a match and lit a fire in my chest. The way I feel about Freya is illuminated, it can’t hide in the darkness anymore. I’m being swallowed up by emotion. Slowly, I spin her around and bury my hands into her soft, silky hair.

A sense of clarity falls over me.

I’m done fucking around. Losing her would kill me. I’ve been telling myself for years that relationships will always come second, they can wait, women are for someday. But what if there’s no someday option? Sometimes it’s now or never. Refuting it won’t lessen my feelings, I’m already in too deep.

I’ve got two choices here: dive in or run away. If I walked away from her, I’d never forgive myself for not finding out what could be... or telling her how I feel. If I dive in, my only regret will ever be trying to push her away in the first place.

“I love you so goddamn much,” I whisper.

She pulls me out of the bathroom and into her bedroom, dropping the towel on the way. She sits in the center of the bed. I grab my shirt at the nape of my neck and yank it over my head. Then wrap my palms around her ankles and tug hard, dragging her to the edge, her bright hair is fanned around her like a starburst.

Falling to my knees, I spread her legs. I love this pussy. My lips press to the inside of her thighs. She’s bracing herself on her elbows, watching my every move. I groan when I get my first taste of her and flatten my tongue to lap up her arousal. I hear a small sniffle, but she sighs and gets comfortable. My hands move up her stomach to grope her breasts and tug on her nipples. I flick my tongue over her clit, eliciting another moan.

When my lips seal over her and suck, she comes alive. Her back arches, and she whimpers. I spear two fingers inside and feel her tighten around them. Red fingernails scratch my scalp, and I grip her hips to force her deeper into my mouth, letting her grind against my face.

That’s it.

“Wait...”

I look up.

“Make me come on your cock first.” That’s about the only thing that could persuade me off her. “Please.”

I take one last taste and rise to my feet.

Cradling her neck, I lick the corner of her lips. She cups the sides of my face, pulling me closer and tangling her tongue with mine, tasting herself. Her eagerness makes me smile against her mouth.

Her hands drop to my jeans, and she unbuckles my belt and shoves down my pants. I do the rest of the work and kick them off, along with my boxers. She scoots up the bed and rests naked against the pillows. Her legs are open, and she pulls me between them, reaching down to stroke me.

Fuck.I would let this girl crash my truck if that’s what she wanted. I’d toss her the keys without thinking twice.

She places her delicate hand on my throat and speaks softly.

“Rhys?”

“Yeah, baby?”

“Don’t degrade me tonight, ’k?”

I pause for a moment before returning her kiss and suck her bottom lip into my mouth. “Anything you want.”

Usually our sex is kinky and frenzied, tonight we’re laying our hearts bare. There’s a connection that’s different than what I’ve experienced before with Freya. It’s still hot as hell, but it feels like tonight is meant to explore the depth of our love. I’ve said the words, but now I’m going to prove it.

“You are so fucking precious.” I pull each of her nipples into my mouth and graze the peaks with my teeth. She writhes as I work the pad of my thumb over her clit. I’ve gotten to know exactly how she likes to be touched.

“I’m on birth control.”
