He laughed, and it wasn’t as dark a sound as before. “Seriously? I expected to find you fucking unconscious and bleeding out in my bathroom, and kicked the door in.”

I blinked. “Oh.”

“It’s not sinking in, is it?” He leaned down and kissed me softly. “You’re not alone any more, Chloe.”

I swallowed hard. “I felt nothing. Everything. Too much.”

“And now?”

“Now is...” I leaned my head on his shoulder, sinking into him. “Better?”

“I think we can do a little more than justbetter, Chloe Duke of mine.” His eyes glowed, hooding with a shadow of need as he stared down at me.

My breath hitched. “Show me.”

The grin that spread across his face this time wasn’t slow, and it wasn’t easy.

“My pleasure.” He cupped my ass like he did that first night in his room, the first time I went to a Kingsman party, lifting my so my spine scraped the boulder’s hard surface gently, but I didn’t mind. This was who we were together.

Despite his tight grip on my hips, his kisses were tender, nothing like the words we spoke. That swirled around in my head as he carried me across the forest wall and set me down gently on the bed of multicoloured leaves.

"I want to take it slow, but I'm not sure I can.” Nick grated, his hands drifting to my thighs, where he dug his fingers in deep enough to leave new marks.

Soft breath pushed from my lungs as I caught his shirt, tugging him forward. "Is it okay if I want to be on top and be in control? Is that too...new?”

His dirty smile was all the answer I needed, even if that answer came in a slightly different way than expected.

Nick rolled us, so I straddled his hips. I laid atop his chest as he looked up at me from the halo of fall colors. "How about this?"

"It's different," I said, suddenly shy.

"Cool. I want to see you and touch you."

I bit my lip, looking down at him and rolled my hips against erection. "Like this?" I teased, my heart slammed fast in my chest.

“Yeah, like that.” Nick cupped the back of my neck, and pulled me down for a kiss. "It's just us, Chloe. You and me and no one else. Promise." Grabbing the bottom of my shirt, he tugged it over my head, pulling at my cotton sweater until only his jeans, and my thong separated our bodies from full contact.

His hands landed on my ass, the hard smack of flesh on flesh disrupting the forest’s silence. Reaching behind me, I managed to keep in my yelp, knowing he wanted those noises from me.

"Anything else?" I murmured, aiming for coyness.

Nick growled. "Do you know what those three words we both said before mean?"

I ducked my chin, hiding my eyes. "Yes," I whispered.

Nick’s grip on the back of my neck tightened, forcing me to face him. "Yeah?" His eyes challenged me directly, something stopping either of us from backing down that was written into the way my brain functioned. "Trust is everything between us. I’m what you needed me to be. I don't want you to be afraid."

He pulled me forward until a breath separated us, his eyes like molten lava that could consume me.

What a way to die.

"I'm not afraid of you. I'm afraid of me, and my expectations."

“Okay.”

I blinked. "Just like that?"

Nick laughed, a dark sound that left my feet curling at his hips. "Just like that, Chloe Duke. Stop hiding yourself in a corner and enjoy what's right in front of you."
