His hand rose to cup my cheek, warm and steady, and when his mouth finally found mine, it was electric.His lips were soft at first, then hungry, desperate, claiming.It was the kind of kiss that I had never once experienced.
The world fell away.All that remained was the wild and impossible truth of us.
When we finally broke apart, breathless, I pressed my forehead to his chest.“No more secrets,” I whispered.
He smiled, a real, honest-to-God smile.“No more secrets.Just us.”
For a long moment, we stood there under the stars, letting our new reality settle between us.My heart raced with a healthy mix of fear, excitement, and something that felt like destiny.
“I’ve never been a big believer in destiny.Until now,” I said.Standing there, wrapped in Mack’s arms, it was hard to imagine that anything other than destiny or fate had brought us together.
“It’s a word that’s tossed around in my world a lot.But until now, I’ve been pretty skeptical.”
Mack took my hand, and without another word, he led me through the quiet house to his bedroom.Every step, my body seemed to pulse with anticipation.The only sounds were our soft breaths.
His bedroom was warm and inviting.The air was tinged with cedar and something wild, which was uniquely him.As he closed the door behind us, we paused, looking at each other in the low light.I could see the tension in his jaw, the restraint in his eyes, and it made my heart ache in the best way.
“Kiss me, Mack.”
He reached for me, slow and gentle, giving me every chance to pull away.But I didn’t want distance.I wanted to feel him.I wanted to feel his strength, his certainty.I needed proof that this was real.
Our lips met again, and this time there was no holding back.His hands tangled in my hair, drawing me closer.My fingers traced the hard lines of his chest, memorizing every inch.His kiss was everything I’d hoped for.It was wild, tender, overwhelming.
He lifted me easily, laying me back on the bed.His touch was reverent as he explored every curve, every patch of skin exposed beneath my shirt.
I lost myself in the sensation of his lips on my neck, his warm breath against my collarbone.He was everywhere—above me, around me, driving me insane.
“Are you sure?”he murmured.
I answered with a kiss, threading my fingers through his hair.“I’ve never been more sure of anything.”
After that, there was only heat and sensation and the slow, glorious discovery of each other.
“You are so beautiful,” he whispered as he kissed a path down the valley between my breasts.He worshipped every inch of me, making me feel like the most beautiful woman on the planet, and maybe to him, I was.I felt wanted in a way I never had before.I let go of every fear, every doubt, and just surrendered to him—body and soul.
He continued south on his exploration.His tongue circled my belly button before heading further south to my core.A soft swipe of his tongue over my folds had me squirming beneath him.
“Mmm, so fucking good.I could do this every damn day,” he growled.
“Yes.Please!”I begged.“I won’t tell you no.”That was for damn sure.
“I can’t wait to be buried deep inside of you.”He slid two fingers into my heat and pumped them in and out.
“Mack, please.”I moaned.“I need you.”
“I want you to come first.I need to taste you.”
“Oh God!”I rocked my hips, meeting the motion he made with his fingers.
“That’s it, Audrey.Let go.I’ve got you.”
“Mack!”I cried out as the first of my orgasms crashed over me.
“Fuck yes!”
I thought he’d give me a minute or so to recover.I was wrong.Before I could even catch my breath.He was on his knees, palming his cock and pressing it against my entrance.
“Tell me you want me.”He demanded.
