I growl, pushing it past the tight ring of muscle.
She sobs in ecstasy, rocking back against me.God, she's beautiful like this, spread open to me, completely uninhibited.There isn't a shy bone in her body.She's eager to explore and willing to try anything once, perfect in every way.
"Oh, God, Deacon," she sobs."Why does that feel so good?"
"Because you belong to me," I growl, torturing her with pleasure."This perfect cunt and gorgeous ass are mine, Sunshine.Your body is my playground now."I stroke deep, replacing my thumb with two fingers."I own it."
Her muscles clench around my cock.
"You like knowing that."
"Yes," she whispers.
"Then you'll love knowing this."I lean forward, running my lips up her shoulder blade toward her ear."You own me too, Sunshine."
"Deacon," she cries, shattering around me.
Her inner walls contract all up and down my shaft.I sink my teeth into her shoulder, groaning as she drags me over the edge with her.My balls ache as they empty into her in hard spurts, filling her womb with my seed.
"Deacon," she chants through it."Deacon."
I ride her through it, unable to help myself when she feels this good.
Eventually, she collapses beneath me, groaning.I follow her down, rolling us to the side so I can keep my dick in her where it belongs.Like I told her, I don't need a knot.I can breed her just fine like this.
I brush my lips across her shoulder, holding her close.
"Mm," she hums."If I own you, I guess that makes me the boss now."
I chuckle quietly."Baby, you've been the boss."
"And don't you forget it, Mountain Man."

"What the hell do you think she's doing?"I ask Tyr, watching from the porch as Cordelia marches back and forth outside with her phone held high over her head.She's been out there for the last half hour, muttering to herself and marching around like she's practicing for the damn band.
The dog looks at me, his tail thumbing the wood.
"Damned if I know," I mutter to him.
He huffs and lopes down the porch, heading in her direction.
"Ha!"she shouts, scaring a bird into flight from a tree overhead."It worked!I found signal!"
I shake my head, laughing to myself as she dances in a gleeful circle.God, I love her crazy ass.I'm so in love with her it's ridiculous.I never thought I'd fall.Never wanted to fall.But with her, it was inevitable.From the moment I saw her photo, I knew I was fucked.When she stepped out of her car, there was no fighting it.In the four days she's been here, she's changed everything.She's changed me.
I watch her for another moment, and then slip inside the house to make a phone call of my own.She asked me yesterday why I hadn't left, and I didn't lie to her.For six years, all I wanted was peace and quiet.Now, the thought of not having her voice ringing out fills me with dread.The thought of not hearing her laughter every day makes my stomach twist into knots.She belongs with me, bringing sunshine into my life.That's the future I want.Not solitude in the mountains, but a lifetime of arguing about ridiculous shit with her.A lifetime of laughing with her.Nothing else will suffice.
When she leaves here, I'm going with her.After the fire, the department's insurance paid the three of us who survived a hefty settlement.I haven't touched mine.Haven't touched most of what I make from renting out the cabins either.It all sits in the bank, accruing interest.It's enough to hire someone to take care of things out here.Hell, it's enough to never have to work again if that's what I decide to do.
There's time to figure that out later.But I saw the look in her eyes yesterday…the glimmer of fear, the first inkling of heartbreak.She's preparing to lose me.I'll be damned if I stand by and let that happen.If I let her feel that fear or watch her heart break little by little until her time here is up, thinking we end when she goes.I'm solving the problem now, and then I'm telling her how I feel about her.
We're not spending another fucking day without her knowing that she owns my heart just as much as she does my body.I wanted to tell her last night, but I stopped myself.Today is Valentine's Day.It's probably cheesy as hell to tell her today, but I'll be cheesy for her.Hell, I'll be whatever she wants me to be so long as it ends with her in my arms for the rest of my damn life.
That's all that matters to me.
I grab the phone off the kitchen island and dial Nell's number.
