He reaches down to line himself up with my mouth, and I open gladly, taking him down my throat, sucking and licking like my life depends on it.God,I love this man’s dick.

With one final groan, he dives between my legs, and I’m lost in pleasure as I try to make him come first. It doesn’t take long before I’m shaking, on the very precipice of my orgasm, and I can tell he’s close too as his hips thrust into me frantically.

Without warning, cum floods my mouth as he finds his release. He groans, his breath on my pussy enough to send me over the edge as well. My entire body spasms, and Sasha holds me steady through it all, working my clit until I come down from my high. He spins me right sight up in his arms, no sign of fatigue even from holding me for so long. The lazy grin on my face pulls a chuckle from him as he uses his fingers to comb the wet hair from my face.

“Lucy, I…” There’s a flash of something in his eyes, but before I can decipher what it is, he rests his forehead against mine. “You are amazing, baby.” We stay like that for a moment, chests heaving against each other as we catch our breath. But when he pulls back, there’s no mistaking the fire burning in his gaze. “And now you’re mine.”

Chapter nineteen

I wake up to the sound of waves crashing on the shore and Lucy sound asleep in my arms, just like I have for the past three mornings. Since we started sharing a bed, she’s been waking up later and later. I’d like to think that I bring her as much peace as she brings me, but I know that’s not true.

I’m about to drift back to sleep when my phone chimes with a notification that our jet will be here soon, reminding me that our beach getaway is almost over. It’s hard to believe that our weekend is drawing to an end. It’s been undeniably the best three days of my life. I had planned to wine and dine my sweet girl while we were here, but we've hardly even had time to make it to the beach.

Instead, we’ve spent half our days tangled together in these sheets. And what time we didn’t spend fucking on every surface of this beach house, we spent wrapped in each other's arms. Everything is just so easy with her. We’ve lived together for almost a month, so our domestic routine has already been established. But it’s more than that. It’s the way I can finally breathe when she’s around.

I love her.

Those three words flutter across my mind like a whisper, and even if I never speak them into existence, I know my heart belongs to her. I know deep down that she’s it for me. There will never be another person to take her place. Even though I’ll never be able to have her the way that I so desperately crave, she was made for me, and I’m sure of that. Why the universe would create such a ray of light for a monster like me, I’ll never know. All I can do is use what little kindness I possess andtryto let her go when this is all over.

At least I don’t have to worry about that right now. For the moment, she’s in my arms, right where she belongs. For the time being, she shares my bed, my home. Pulling her closer, I place a light kiss on her head before rousing her from her slumber.

“Wake up, pretty girl,” I whisper as I run my hands up Lucy’s arms, gently shaking her shoulders.

Her eyes flutter open, and she lights up the moment she sees me. I’m falling apart on the inside, knowing this isn’t my forever, but I return her smile. I want to spend whatever time I have with her, making her as happy as possible.

“It’s time to get up, baby. Our plane will be here soon, and I want you to have a little more beach time before you go,” I say, brushing her hair behind her ears.

“Oh,” she says, her entire demeanor shifting. The sadness written across her face pains me in a way I don’t expect, but before I can dive too far into those feelings, she brightens up again. “I don’t mind spending the rest of the time right here,” she says, throwing herself dramatically back down on the mattress.

“We live together, baby. We can play in the sheets as soon as we get home. Right now, I want to take you to the ocean you love so much before we have to leave. You go ahead and get ready and head out. I’ll get our things packed up and meet you out there. Okay?”

When she doesn’t move, I smack her ass just hard enough to sting a little. “I saidokay?”

“Ohhkay…”

She climbs off me and makes her way to the bathroom to get ready for the day. As I watch her bare ass jiggle, I have to fight the urge to throw her back on the bed and fuck her until it’s time to leave.

The door shuts behind her, and I get up to pack. The cleaners will take care of the mess we’ve made, so I focus on getting our things together. With each item I place in our bags, I grow more and more melancholy. I’ve felt more at home here with Lucy for the past three days than I ever have in my life, and I doubt even the little cottage we share will feel the same. I’m not sure if I want it to, either. It would just hurt worse when we inevitably have to say goodbye. No, getting back to the real world is the best for both of us.

I’m brought back to the moment by a kiss on my cheek. “I’ll see you soon!” she says as she makes her way out of the bedroom. I’ve barely had time to register what’s going on before I hear the door open and shut. She left so fast I wasn't even able to see what swimsuit she was wearing, and the mystery of it has me working twice as quickly to finish getting our things together. When the packing is done, I load the car and make quick work of changing into my swim shorts before practically rushing out to meet her.

I expect her to be shoulder deep in the water when I walk out, but instead, I find her standing at the edge of the tide, letting the waves wash up around her feet. Her long yellow cover-up accentuates her tan skin as it dances with the breeze. Paired with her windswept dirty-blonde hair, she looks like a masterpiece of sunlight.My Sunshine.

Walking up behind her, I pull her back into my body and wrap her in my arms. “I feel underdressed,” I whisper in her ear asI gently sway us back and forth, delighting in the way her body melts into mine.

“What do you mean?”

“Well, I came out here wondering which swimsuit you were going to tease me with today, but you’re in a full-length dress! I do think it’s only fair you take it off, though, since I’m only wearing my swim shorts.”

She turns in my arms, and I see a tear fall from her face, breaking my heart. “Oh, I don’t even have one under this. I’m sorry…”

“Shh, don’t apologize. You look beautiful, baby. Youarebeautiful,” I say, hugging her close.

When she doesn’t respond, I lead her back away from the water to the dry sand and sit, pulling her down between my legs so that her back is to me. “What’s wrong, pretty girl? Talk to me.”

While I wait for her to gain the confidence to say what’s on her mind, I tilt her head back slightly and begin combing my fingers through her hair gently so I can braid her long waves.

“It’s just…I don’t want this weekend to end. I’ve had the best time here and…wait…” She pauses when I start to weave her strands together. “Are you braiding my hair? How do you know how to braid hair?”
