My heart pounded faster, thinking of all the reasons I loved this man.
Close enough didn’t exist, not with him, but I’d take as much as I could.
“Now,Nathan.”
He didn’t break eye contact as he lined his cock up with my entrance and eased inside, slowly. I gasped, reveling in the way he filled me, the stretch as my body made room for him.
His jaw clenched while sweat beaded his brow. I knew I wasn’t alone with this indescribable feeling, both torture and bliss.
I already dreaded the moment we’d disentangle.
“Nathan…” I murmured. He thrust his hips toward me, my hands white-knuckling the edge of the counter. My legs grippedhim tighter. I wanted nothing to exist between us, not even an inch of air. “You feelso good.”
He pushed my hair over my shoulder. “Nothing in my life has ever felt this right.”
He moved faster, and I pushed back with everything he gave me. My hands moved to his shoulders, clutching him for this give-and-take. Only one thought broke through the haze of pleasure consuming me—more.My legs shook, my body desperate to release the coiled tension.
Nathan found my lips again, aware of what I needed. His teasing tongue in my mouth echoed the desire in my core, where we were also connected, pounding into each other.
It was too much, being physically, mentally, emotionally overwhelmed by Nathan. It wasn’t long before I burst into blinding euphoria that had me shouting his name before again collapsing to the counter. He kept moving, wringing every bit of pleasure my body had to give.
“Fuck, Brenna,” Nathan mumbled against my forehead. That strain in his voice sent a zap between my legs, even as my inner walls contracted around him. His movements became choppy, thrusts without pattern. He looped his arms around my shoulders, his grip tightening.
He was so close, and I needed to watch him crumble because of me. I leaned forward, tracing my tongue up the column of his neck until I sucked his earlobe into my mouth.
“Bren.”
I’d never liked my name more than in Nathan’s sexy groan.
“Come for me, Nate.”
Nathan seized my mouth with a bruising kiss. I hoped it would leave a mark, proof this perfect night had really happened. He released my lips as he found his release, grunting my name in one long drawn-out syllable. Nathan slumped over the counter, his weight falling onto me, his breath coating my skin.
I wrapped my arms around his neck. My heart felt like a balloon filling with air, expanding beyond what I thought was possible.
How could I ever go back to a life without him, knowing we made each other feel this good? It wasn’t only this moment, Nathan still inside me, clinging to each other. It was Nathan’s gaze catching mine across the café. Our hands threaded together while we walked to the car, trading stories about the day. The mischief in his eyes when we bantered.
Exchanging the first and last words of my day with him.
“That was perfect,” I breathed.

NATHAN
Now
Brenna and I eventuallydisentangled from each other.
I’d been right; I couldn’t survive without her, especially not after experiencing the feeling of completeness when I was inside her.
It wasn’t only the heavenly way her body wrapped around my cock, but everything that accompanied it. Brenna moaning my name while her body spasmed. Her wild eyes connecting with mine, desire blowing out her pupils. The floral scent of her hair in my nostrils. Her hands digging into my back, desperate to fuse us. Laughing together as we came down from our highs, happy to be in each other’s company.
The promise of more time.
I climbed the stairs, carrying the pie and a bottle of wine. As I approached my room, I heard the shower. The idea of studying Brenna in the bright light of the bathroom was highly appealing. These past few weeks, I’d become intimately familiar with her naked body, but mostly in the dark, sometimes with pale morning light from the windows. Tonight, there’d been little chance to drink each other in, to explore and play. We’d needed each other so badly, we barely got our clothes off.
I had just dropped my pants when I heard Brenna’s piercing voice, low like she was trying to keep quiet.
