She shook her head. “I don’t believe you.”
“You can’t be serious. You’re letting your fear interfere with your instincts. You can feel what I feel for you. I can’t hide it from you.” He spread his arms wide. “Look, I have nothing to hide—my love is there for you to see.”
“You doubted.”
“I won’t deny that,” he conceded. “Leora’s return confused me, though thinking on it more, it actually frightened me. It made me question. What if, like her, you didn’t truly love me? What would I do then? How would I live without you?”
“I should have realized that she never loved you,” Bliss said, as if it were her fault. “In my visions, she kept claiming that she needed you; but never once did she say that she loved you.”
“It isn’t your fault. It’s mine for even doubting briefly that you loved me.”
Bliss pressed her hand to her chest. “It hurts to hear you say that. My love for you is eternal. It always has been and always will be. I have dreamt of the man I would call husband all my life, and that man is you; I have not a sliver of doubt.”
He stepped forward again, eager to scoop her up and carry her back to the keep and make love to her.
She jumped back. “While I have not had a shred of doubt, you did, and you must settle that in your heart and mind before we can be together again.”
Trey nodded slowly, his brow scrunched in thought.
“When your heart is certain, return to me,” she said sadly, as if it pained her deeply to say it.
Trey nodded and went to turn, but instead swung around to reach out and scoop her up in his arms and yank her tightly against his chest. “You’re mine and always will be. There is nothing to think about.” He walked at a fast pace. “I love you, wife, and that love will only continue to grow with time, which means I will love you more and more each day.”
“I—”
He silenced her protest with a kiss, before saying, “I will hear no more foolish objections from you. I intend to take you to our bedchamber and make love to you. All night, if we’re both not too exhausted.”
Her soft laughter sounded like a gentle melody floating on the night air.
“We belong together, Bliss. Fate decreed it, and what fate decrees, nothing can separate.”
He kicked the door to the keep open and walked in, then kicked it closed.
His da and brothers still lingered in the great hall, and they stared at him, though Reeve grinned.
“Don’t disturb us,” Trey commanded, and disappeared up the steps.
Once in the bedchamber, Trey didn’t waste a minute. He stripped himself fast as Bliss took a couple of steps back, then he stripped her, not giving her a chance to protest since he kept kissing her as he shed her garments.
When he was done, he hoisted her up so that she had no choice but to wrap her legs around his waist. Then he carried her to the bed and lowered her, burying himself slowly inside her as he did.
He loved the initial moment of entering her. She was always ready for him, always slick with moisture, as if just the thought of making love with him made her wet and that excited him and grew his erection harder and made sliding into her easy.
She gasped, though in moments she was moaning with delight as his rhythm quickened. It would be a fast joining—they both knew that and they both needed it to be. Though it hadn’t been long since they had last made love, it had been much too long for them. It was as if their bodies, their minds, and their hearts could not live without it. Making love nourished them in ways neither understood but would not deny.
He grabbed her hips, forcing her to meet his potent thrusts more vigorously.
His name spilled from her lips in a whisper, and he knew it would grow stronger and louder as she begged him to bring her to climax. She wanted him; only he could drive her wild with passion, only he could satisfy her burning need, only he could deliver the climax that would leave her shuddering with satisfaction.
She belonged to him, body, heart, and soul.
The thought had him driving into her with such passion that she shouted out his name, and he knew, he could feel, her climax near. He moved with power that brought him pleasure and her satisfaction as he sent her flying over the edge.
He felt her explosive climax, heard her cry out his name, forcing him to join her. He burst in climax with her. So strong was it that it felt as if it went on forever. Not surprisingly, he sensed and felt another climax hit Bliss, and he kept his thrusts strong so her pleasure would be great.
When passion finally faded, leaving tingles to run through them, Trey stretched out beside her. He tucked her close to his side, smiled, and, with a slightly labored breath, said, “I love the way you’re always wet and ready for me and how you moan and tighten around me just before you explode with passion.”
“And I love that you sometimes enter me slow and easy and other times”—she didn’t need to pretend to shudder, she did—“it’s fast and hard.”
