I could taste the yearning in her kiss, could feel that she needed a tender joining. It had been easy for me to take her with passionate frenzy. To go slower, to be tender and vulnerable would be a challenge. I shied away from it at first. I was a man who had sex, a man who fucked. Not a man who made love.
But I remembered vowing I’d do anything if only Lexi came back, if only she survived the attempt on her life. If she could come back from an overdose, from being poisoned, then I could find the courage to be softer, more open with her. I brushed her hair back from her face, caressed her cheek. I banked my own desire, held it back, certain that I could control myself for her sake. For the sake of the closeness I wanted with her.
Lexi dipped her head, kissed my neck. I liked it, liked it well enough that my first instinct was to growl, to roll her onto her back and spread her legs. I had to take it slow, to make this different but no less pleasurable. So I let her kiss my neck as I rubbed slow circles on her bare back, the ends of her hair tickling the back of my hand. Gradually, I moved her across me so she was lying on top of me. When she looked up from kissing my shoulder I could see understanding flicker across her face. She blushed a pretty pink that made me want to tease her about all the naughty things we’d already done. Instead, I trailed my fingers lightly down her stomach and smiled up at her.
I wasn’t used to building anticipation, putting off my own satisfaction. I traced my hand down her side, into the curve of her waist and watched her wriggle a little and smile.
“You were the opposite of what I expected, you know? When I met you, you were this sensitive, protective guy and then in bed you’re so alpha, so fierce and in control. I like you both ways. You don’t have to be anything else for me,” she said. She was sitting on top of me, totally naked, and I felt like I was the one exposed the way she saw my thoughts and knew what I needed to hear.
“I’m not being someone else. I’m being what you need, which is all I want.”
“I just want you. However you’ll have me,” she said, like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
Lexi rose up on her knees, smiling at me like the cat that got the cream. I fisted my cock and fed it into her as she lowered her lush hips over me. Her lower lip drooped as she gasped. I filled her, felt her spread her legs more to try to adjust to my thickness.
“Yeah, take it, take it all,” I hissed, trying to hold myself under control when I wanted to rut in her hard and fast.
“Aahhh,” she said, eyes big and dark. She rolled her lips under, bit them. Her hands rested on my chest and she started to rock on me, moving my shaft inside her, hitting all those places that made her squirm.
I could tell she liked the control, got off a little on setting the pace even though it was killing me. She rolled her hips, her beautiful breasts rising and falling with every stroke. She panted as it got harder to breathe. I stroked her breasts, her thighs and hips, tried to keep it as leisurely as I could, but I was on the edge. I flexed my hips up to meet her down stroke and filled her all the way. That earned me a moan from her kiss-swollen lips. Softly, I reminded myself, because she was sore, and because she needed intimacy from me sometimes, not just wild passion. I pushed myself up until I was sitting with her in my lap. I wrapped my arms around her, pulling her close and rocking with her, kissing behind her ear, down her neck.
“I love you, Lexi,” I whispered.
“I love you, and I love it when you whisper, when you touch me like this. It’s—it’s too much,” she said, turning her face. I saw a tear track down her cheek, and I kissed it.
“Don’t cry, baby. This is what you have now, and what you deserve. I’m not letting you go. Neither of us ever would. I want you to stay forever,” I said, my voice ragged as I moved inside the hot satin of her passage.
“Oh!” she said, burying her face in my neck and rocking harder against me, my cock trapped inside her.
I flattened my palm on her back, cupped her head with the other hand and kissed her hair as she came in long clenching rolls around me. I gritted my teeth against it. As the last flutters of her orgasm subsided, Lexi started kissing my neck, grazing my throat with her teeth lightly, giving me an edge to the pleasure that wound me up like she knew it would. Until I rolled her onto her back and stroked into her, getting the friction I needed from her tightness, the pleasure of her nipples rubbing my chest as I lay above her. I climaxed, shoulders shaking as I held myself up. I kissed her forehead after I came, then leaned my forehead against hers. When I rolled onto my side, I held her in my arms. We napped together, wrapped up in each other.
