Each time she shouted my name, or dragged her nails, digging into my skin down my arms or my back.
Each time we changed positions—I trembled, closed my eyes and drew her closer into my chest.
“Are you almost there, Daniel?” She whispered in my ear before nipping the lobe.
I grunted.
Then she switched from English, and it all crashed in on me like a tsunami wave.
And just before the world shimmered into nothing but rays of light, I realized that though I wasn’t sure what language that was, it did some very powerful things to me.
“Abeke…”
Her name was torn from my lips as I arched backward, pushing one final time into her and as deeply as I could. I needed my body to be imprinted on her.
I needed her to remember the way I felt so that I ruined her for every other man out there. I needed to claim her as mine—that powerful feeling swirling around inside my head with the smell and taste of her.
In that moment, there were no other women on the face of the earth. There was only her and the essence of her.
In that moment, with my world shattering around me, the soft sound of her breathing, there was no denying it—I belonged to her.
And I wasn’t afraid or ashamed of it.
To not crush her by falling asleep on her, I rolled to the side, shifted our bodies on the bed and pulled her into my chest.
Kokou sat up, still breathing heavily and tried scooting away.
“Whoa.” I caught her arm. “Where are you going?”
She looked away from me shyly while pulling the sheets up to cover her chest.
“You have the most beautiful breasts.” I traced a gentle finger down the center of her chest to where the sheet started. “Now, tell me—where are you going?”
“Men don’t like clingy women.” Kokou replied. “I didn’t want to overstay my welcome in your bed.”
I scoffed. “Do you seriously think what we just did won’t happen again?”
She said nothing.
“Or is it that you don’t want it to happen again?”
Still nothing.
“Kokou, I told you not to do this because it will help my—”
“I didn’t.”
“Then what is the problem?”
“I’m scared.” Her voice trembled. “I’m scared that you’ll be like—”
When her voice cracked with emotion, I scooted my naked body closer to her and pulled her into my chest. “One step at a time, Kokou. Things like this doesn’t happen overnight. I’m hoping one day, you won’t be afraid to claim my body.”
“One day?”
Kokou lifted tired eyes to me.
“Wearegoing to make love again.” I caught her chin between my thumb and forefinger. “We’re going to do it as many times as you’d like until you get it. But for right now, come back to bed.”
