eyes widen. “You’re not? Shit! I’m too late. I’ve hurt you too badly. You realized that you don’t love me. That’s it.”

“That’s not it at all,” I tell her. “I’m glad you left because you needed the time to figure this out. I’m just glad it didn’t take months…years.”

She smiles, and it’s so sweet I feel myself getting warm inside. I scoffed at Bolt, Night, and the others for how sappy they became. Here I am ten times fucking worse. “Does that mean that you’re willing to give us a chance? I didn’t screw up too badly for—”

I put my finger over her lips. “You didn’t screw up a single thing. Did you find yourself?” I cup her cheeks.

Nia looks deep into my eyes. “I certainly did. Here I am.” She smiles, and it’s radiant. I think she sees her reflection in my eyes. “I’m right where I need to be. I’m home. Are you going to kiss me?”

“I thought you’d never ask.” I slant my mouth over hers. I moan because I’ve never tasted anything so sweet. Nia grips me tightly and moans as well.

I pour everything into this kiss. It feels amazing to have her in my arms. Nia is mine, and I am hers. I’m so grateful she’s trusting me with her love…her heart.

We eventually pull away. Her eyes are hazy. “Sex,” she says. “I also missed good sex.”

I laugh, picking her up. “I’m so glad you won’t need to be celibate, especially since you have one hell of a pussy. Would have been a shame.”

She laughs, slapping me lightly on the arm as I put her down on my bed. Then we’re frantically removing each other’s clothing, and I’m between Nia’s legs, licking and sucking on her clit until she’s scratching the shit out of my back.

She’s still on her back when I cage her with my body. I remember that we need protection. “Hold on a second.” I jump off the bed, almost falling on my face.

Nia giggles. Then I’m pulling out my wallet. I still have the one I didn’t use from when we were together. “Yes!” I say as I find it. I tear it open and slide it over my cock in one smooth motion.

Then I’m crawling back between her legs and rubbing on her clit. Nia moans, “I want you…now.” She sounds breathless.

I push inside her tight, wet heat with a hard grunt. “You feel…holy fuck…you feel good.” I try to keep my weight off her. Our eyes are locked on one another. I’m grinding into her.

Nia has her ankles crossed behind my back. She’s breathing hard…making noises that drive me fucking wild. Her nails are still clawing at me. “Yes…more…oh…”

I lean in and kiss her. It’s my new favorite thing…fucking the woman I love while kissing the hell out of her. “Nia,” I whisper against her lips.

I can feel her pussy fluttering around me…tighter and tighter. Her eyes are widening up. I take back her mouth as her orgasm hits. Her pussy clamps down on me. She bites my lip.

I come hard. I see fucking stars. I roar and grunt. I say her name a whole hell of a lot. Her legs are over my shoulders. Her head is thrown back. I’m still moving…still rocking into her.

I lean down and bite my girl’s throat. It’s a soft nip…not hard enough to draw blood but enough to have her clamping around me a second time. Her eyes go wide with shock and with pleasure. She yells my name and then groans hard. I feel her shuddering underneath me. I don’t pick up the pace. I draw out her second orgasm. I kiss her neck. I kiss her mouth.

I see my reflection in her eyes. I see her, “There you are,” I say. I’m whole again.

Nia

Two months later…

I thought the house I grew up in was a madhouse. It was nothing compared to this one right now.

“Uncle Tri is coming for you.” Trident is on all fours. He’s growling and snarling, pretending to be some sort of wild animal. He’s chasing after little Harley, who is laughing her head off.

Harley is Night and Shannon’s daughter. She can’t walk yet, but she can crawl at a startling speed.

“Ta…Ta!” Forge and Ava’s little boy yells. I think he is trying to say Tri’s name. The toddler is still unsteady on his feet, but that doesn’t stop him from trying to climb onto Tri’s back.

“Bruce!” Trident booms. “You little rascal.” He picks up the little
