other’s eyes.
No words are needed at this moment. Everything that needs to be said is done with our eyes. Endymion places a warm kiss to my lips before lying back and pulling me into his arms. I rest my head on his chest and close my eyes. A smile steals over my features as I listen to the synchronized beat of his heart until it beats with my own.
I wake up the next morning to hot dreams of Endymion’s body on top of mine. His tongue trails across my flesh as his delectable mouth places fevered kisses on my sex. My core clenches as if I can actually feel his tongue on me in real-time.
I’m on the brink of an orgasm, but I’m certain it’s just a dream until my eyes spring open, and I find Endymion’s face buried between my thighs. A moan rips past my lips at the sight of him, and I swear, he grins.
End takes a languid lick, making a show of the way he’s eating me. That tongue doesn’t miss a single spot, swiping across every nerve and crevice of my slit. With one hand fisting the sheet, the other finds purchase in his hair, and I tug, silently begging him for more.
With a growl, he delves deeper into me. He tongues my clit, swirling faster the louder I moan and the more I writhe. A thick finger nudges my entrance. The teasing makes me whimper. Everything feels so tight, so sore from last night, but for the life of me, I don’t want him to stop this. I want more. I need more.
“Christ, you’re so fucking swollen here, babe,” End groans, while his finger pumps in and out of me with lazy strokes. It’s a slow rhythm that drives me wild with lust.
“More, End. I need more.”
Endymion slides in another finger, shushing me. “Shhh. I know what you need.” With two of his digits stroking my upper walls, he delves down, his mouth finding purchase on my clit, and he sucks the bundle of nerves with a ravenous need. My hips arch off the bed, and heat consumes my body. I feel like I’m on fire. His tongue alternates between sucking and licking at my clit with rapid bursts. It’s so much, so many sensations at once, that I feel like I am going to explode. End snakes his hand up my torso, landing on a peaked nipple. My knees lock around his ears as I buck into him, my orgasm ripping into me with a fervor I’ve yet to experience. Liquid nirvana blooms through my core, spreading beyond reach.
My chest rises and falls sharply as I come down from my high. I sense him moving around, but I’m so boneless and dizzy after that orgasm, I can’t bring myself to open my eyes and look.
“Good morning.” He chuckles, climbing into the open space next to me.
A wide grin steals over my face. Blinking my lids open, I turn to face him, warmth filling my chest. “Good morning, indeed.”
He smirks at that. With the morning sun filtering in through his bedroom window, it brings out the bright green in his eyes and the light strands of his hair. He’s beautiful, painfully beautiful.
“Let’s do something today. As a family.” My heart flips wildly at the suggestion. “I was thinking we can take Luna to the zoo. Together.”
There’s a damn furnace in my chest. “She’d love that.”
“And what about you?”
“What about me?”
“I meant what I said at the falls, Selene. I want you. I want this. You’re mine, babe.” His thumb swipes across my lower lip slowly, and the movement goes straight to my core.
I kiss him. Slamming my mouth against his, I kiss the man I’ve loved for what feels like an eternity.
As I lie in bed, my body wrapped around Endymion’s like I’m a contortionist of some sort, I smile thinking about the day we had. It was beyond perfect. It was everything I could’ve asked for. And Luna, my sweet girl, I don’t think I’ve ever seen her so happy. She smiled and laughed with her dad as they walked from exhibit to exhibit, looking at the animals.
Watching their relationship blossom is beautiful. The way End looks at our daughter makes my heart soar. With every moment we spend together, his eyes remain glued to her as if he’s committing everything about her to memory. As if he was trying to recognize each of her smiles and each of her expressions.
By the time
