Dylan's lips quirk. "Because you two are too fun to fuck with." He laughs, and I punch his shoulder.
Blaze lets out a visible exhale of relief.
"Thank you, Dyl," I whisper, relief flooding through me like a tidal wave. Blaze's hand tightens around mine, and I can see the weight lifting from his shoulders as well.
"Yeah, as long as you two are happy, it's none of my business," Dylan says. "And I'll always be here for you both, no matter what."
"I know you won't hurt her," Dylan says to Blaze. It's both a warning and a reassurance. "I honestly can't think of anyone I'd trust my sister with more."
Blaze nods at my brother, and my heart swells. And, for the first time in forever, I feel like everything is going to be alright.
Blaze's fingers trail along my arm, sending shivers down my spine. His dark eyes lock onto mine, filled with a burning intensity that makes my heart race. I know we have a long road ahead of us, but for now, I revel in the freedom of being able to love him openly.
"Come on," Blaze murmurs, pressing his lips against my ear. "Let's go celebrate our newfound honesty."
"Sounds perfect," I reply, my voice breathy as anticipation coils deep within me. We say our goodbyes to Dylan, promising to keep him in the loop about our relationship.
Hand in hand, Blaze leads me back to his apartment, our steps quickened by desire. Once inside, he pushes me against the wall, his lips crashing against mine with a hunger that ignites my very soul. Our bodies meld together, fueled by passion and the knowledge that we can finally explore each other without restraint.
"Fuck, Nova," Blaze groans, his fingers digging into my hips. "I've wanted this for so long."
"Me too," I gasp, my nails raking down his back as he lifts me up, wrapping my legs around his waist. He carries me to the bedroom, our mouths never parting, our bodies tangled in a dance of lust and love.
With each touch, each moan, we break free from the shackles of secrecy that once bound us. Our love is no longer hidden or forbidden. Telling Dylan about us freed our last reservations and somehow made us even more open with one another.
I've never felt as connected to someone as I do Blaze, and tonight I'm ready to give him anything.
But Blaze pulls back, and my heart stops.
He gives me one last kiss on the lips before he closes his eyes as if it takes all his restraint and murmurs, "God, Nova Sinclair, I want you more than anything in this world, but I want everything to be so perfect. I want your first time to be perfect. It needs to be special because you're special."
My heart starts beating again and melts at Blaze's sweetness. "Just being with you makes it special," I reassure him.
But he's serious about this because he gathers me in his arms and holds me tight, rocking me softly. "I know, beautiful. I feel the same way, but can you trust me to do this when I feel like the moment is perfect?"
I look down, suddenly feeling insecure. "You do want me, don't you?"
Blaze cups my chin fast as lightning and lifts my eyes so that they're meeting his. "More than anything in this world," he reassures me. He grabs my hand and places it on his rock-hard cock. "If you don't believe my words, this should be proof enough."
My face flames as I feel a bit of wetness on my fingers from where he's leaking through his pants.
"See what you do to me, gorgeous?" he murmurs, his eyes hooded.
I look into his eyes and see the desire in them, and I soften again.
He leans in and kisses my forehead. "I just know that once I'm inside you, I'll never want to leave. I'll become a jealous bastard, Nova," he warns me. "And I want to give you all the romance you deserve before I pop that pretty little cherry."
"How do you know I'm a virgin?" I ask him teasingly.
He levels a look at me. "Aren't you?"
"Yes," I admit.
"Good," he kisses my forehead again. "Because I would hate to have to hurt someone because they touched you before me."
I laugh at his joke and then curl into his side as he grabs the remote and puts on a movie for us to watch.
And then I fall asleep in his arms, feeling safe and cherished and respected.
