of his heart keeps me company. The final blemish gets dusted with a longer peck, destroying any lingering shadows trying to creep by without detection.
“I love all of you, Halder. Especially the parts previously neglected.”
He cups my cheeks, pulling me in for a kiss. “You’re too good for me, but I’ll never take you for granted. I love you, Blakely.” His hand drifts down my bare torso, resting on my stomach. “You’re already blessing me with far more than I deserve.”
I wedge a palm between us until my hand settles on top of his. “You’re meant for good, whether that’s always a clear mission or not. I won’t quit until you believe that.”
“I’ll trust in what you say.”
“Does that extend across all subjects?”
“Not sure why it wouldn’t.”
“In that case,” I murmur into the scruff coating his jaw. “Ravish me, sexy boss man.”
“SBM?”
“Super creative, I know.”
Before I can blink, he flips us over and has me cradled beneath him. “Well, look at that. The tables have turned.”
I walk my nails up his back. “Indeed. What are your plans for me?”
“I don’t want to spoil any surprises, but there might be orgasms involved.” He rests his forehead against mine.
My hips wiggle against his. “You’re speaking my language.”
“Good to know I can please my woman.”
“Very thoroughly,” I add.
Halder’s fingers twist under the thin elastic at my hips, ripping the scrap off me in a stint of masculine showboating. But Halder is the furthest thing from egotistical. Even a humble brag is pushing it. If I had to guess, he’s in a hurry to get me naked. I don’t mind him destroying my panties for the sake of screwing me senseless. Taking his lead, I shove at his briefs until the final barrier between us is another disposed lump on the floor.
His tip prods at my entrance, seeking a warm welcome I’m very willing to give. I lift my knees to grant him better access. With a grunt, Halder fits into the gap I’ve allotted. He enters me with a long thrust that makes our joining seem endless. The glide is a fluid wave rolling and expanding as we become one. We aim for the crest with languid motions, he strokes in as I rise up to meet him. He stretches me so full, and it’s been too long since I’ve felt this exquisite pressure. I want more. Of him. Our love. The future we’re already building.
I’m ready for him, my arousal bordering on obscene. My body opens for him with a quiver of twitching limbs and clamping muscles. I’m slick and wanton, the erotic buzz injecting into my veins as his cock plunges forward. He takes what I’m giving, gliding in until the only choice is pause or pull back. Our rhythm is one I recognize upon that initial stroke. I can’t fathom anything more natural than exchanging pleasure with this man after weeks apart. Halder rocks in and draws out on a smooth cycle. I’m helpless against the onslaught as pleas dribble off my lips.
He growls against my mouth. “Christ, I’ve missed you.”
“So much. You belong with me.”
“Yeah, Lee. Right here.” He circles his hips, gliding deeper for emphasis.
I arch further to meet his next thrust. “I need you.”
“You have me, sweetheart.”
“Forever?” The desperation steals my filter.
Halder doesn’t seem to mind. “Plus a few more, in case of emergency.”
I hum into his shoulder. “It’s smart to plan for the unexpected.”
“Especially for us,” he whispers against the column of my throat.
His mouth makes a tantalizing trail from the base of my ear across the upward tilt of my jaw. He peppers kisses down my neck, drifting lower until reaching my collarbone. Halder sucks along that raised edge, tasting me with the flat of his tongue. I stab my fingers into his hair, steering him downward by those shaggy strands. He chuckles against my cleavage while complying.
Halder’s palm roves up my side, over the grooves of my ribs, to settle on my breast. My boobs aren’t big by typical standards, but the pillowy mounds are enough to fill Halder’s hands. That’s the only measure I’m counting as effective from now on. He latches onto a peaked nipple and pulls the point into his mouth. I mewl when he uses the slightest hint of his teeth, that bite of pain prodding at an untapped pleasure source I instantly crave. My eyes cross on their own while I beg him to keep going. He laves at the sting while his fingers knead my other breast. Before
