I love the sound of my name on her lips.

I take a handful of her hair, looping my fingers through the silken red strands and my cock jerking inside of her.I bend to lick a trail from her neck down her spine, all along her healed scars.

She squeezes me tight with her core muscles, a reminder not to waste time since we've both been so long without each other.

Fragile but strong.

Her pulse pounds against my lips.

Then I start to move. Rocking into her pussy repeatedly as I reach around to flick her clit. Holding her hair and yanking her head back just enough for her to feel the pressure. She’s unable to move much with the binding, and the angle of her legs banded together is driving me insane.

My chest heaves, and I drag her closer. Pushing my cock into her, a little rougher each time. Aria gasps and arches back against me. Just as greedy for me as I am for her. I release her hair to grip her highs and press her legs even tighter together. She meets each one of my thrusts until she whimpers, clenching around me.

Panting, I want to last longer for her. Even as her own orgasm has her twitching, I follow her over the edge, slamming into her and filling her.

My darling, my mistress of the web, dark and light. There’s nothing she can’t do, including bring a man like me to his knees.

“I love you.” I brush her hair away from her neck and kiss her skin. Wanting to see her face but unwilling to pull out of her just yet. “I want you to know. I love you.” She turns to me, and her eyes are only half open, her body twitching in aftershocks.

“About damn time you said it,” she murmurs. “Hell if I was going to be the first one.”

She laughs, groaning when I finally do pull out of her and cradle her close. A few tugs and the knots keeping the silk scarves in place fall apart and release her from the bind. Aria searches my face before she presses a sweet kiss to my lips, just shy of hard and hungry.

I gather her closer to my chest, my wound pulling but not unbearable. I feel…refreshed. Reborn. This woman gave me the strength to save myself, even if she had to prod me into doing so. I can only hope a lifetime of making her happy will be enough repayment.

epilogue

“Whew!”Gabriel swipes a hand through his hair, looking like a fucking pirate who just came off a raid and should have jewels instead of nuts in his pants. I halfway expect him to grab his crotch and pop his stiffy right out, maybe even mark his territory. “What a rush. What a goddamn rush! Come here, you gorgeous woman.”

Before I have a chance to open my mouth to warn him to shut the hell up, he’ll gives us away, he’s got said mouth on me. The kiss rips through every one of my warnings, every last defense I’ve ever possessed, and our tongues dance together.

My system overloads on adrenaline the longer the kiss goes on, and I wrap my body around his greedily. His kiss is expert, hot, and all mine.

Every inch of him belongs to me.

Gabriel sucks my tongue into his mouth, and a feral moan burns the back of my throat.

I’m just as greedy for him, desperate to get closer, even when the hands I grab him with are covered in gunshot residue. His weapon clatters to the ground, and he backs me up into the wall to cage me between his arms and the cold sheetrock.

“Come on. Admit you like it.” The smirk in his voice is the kicker for me. I love it, and I’m done hating him for his moods. “You get off on this kind of shit. My dirty girl.”

He tilts my head to the side with a finger on my jaw and deepens the kiss, stroking me with the intent to do so much more. When he presses his body to mine, he’s already hard, and so many parts of me water in response. I arch to him and nearly lose my grip on my own smoking gun.

“Baby, you get me so hot,” he murmurs through our kiss.

I smile against him. “You get a hard-onanytimeyou kill someone. I’m not sure how you managed without me.”

“Oh, I’ve buried my cock in some less-than-savory women before I met you. Daddy Thor does not discriminate.”

“Daddy Thor is long gone, left on the stage at the Velvet Underground.”

“Now I have sex with the best pussy in the entire continent.” His voice goes low and husky. He grabs my ass and pulls me up to him, trying to get me to ride him right there. “Maybe even the world.”

It’s not time to think about sex. Especially not when my old partner might be dying on his way to the hospital as we speak.

I plant my feet and refuse to move. “We’ve got a body to handle, mister. This really isn’t the time to fuck on top of your old boss’s corpse.”

Gabriel drops his head to mine, and it’s a long way down. “Layla, baby, please. Let the fucker rot there. I don’t want to bother with him.”
