For a moment we were silent, locked in each other’s gazes. She had captivated my entire being, and I would spend what time we had left together memorizing her every movement to try to make it be enough. Her pulse hammered at the side of her throat.
Adelaide finally opened her mouth. “I love you, too,” she said, her voice trembling. She grabbed the front of my sweater and pulled me down to her, our chests and mouths crashing together.
The world fell into silence as I saw fireworks behind my eyes. I thought I must be floating or possibly had simply perished and entered the afterlife. She had just given me everything I had ever wanted with those four little words: her heart and her love. She was my everything, my anchor, the reason I stayed firm in the storm of the last few months. With her by my side, I knew I could be a better man, a better partner, and a better king.
Every nerve in my body tuned into the way our mouths melded together in the most intricate dance, ebbing and flowing into each other. I was determined to memorize every part of this moment, knowing it could sustain me for the rest of my days.
Kissing Adelaide was like coming home. There was comfort in it, in the way I knew that when I pushed forward, she would push back. I knew that she would hitch her breath when I sucked on her bottom lip, and I knew that she melted a little bit every time I moved my tongue inside her mouth.
This was what it was to be in tune with someone, andthis was what I wanted for the rest of my life: To know her body and her soul like my very own.
She ran her hand down my chest until she got to the buckle of my belt. “Undo this.”
The creature in my chest growled with pleasure. I would never tell her no. If Adelaide was a goddess, I was a lowly peasant sent to worship at her feet.
I stood, slowly unlatching my belt.
“Now the rest.” She flicked her finger toward the button and zipper on my pants.
I chuckled darkly. “I thought I was the one who gave instructions here.”
One eyebrow quirked up as she pursed her lips. “Not right now, you’re not. You’re going to take off your pants, and then you’re going to lay down on this bed while I show you just how much I love you.”
Sweet lord in heaven, I’m done for.Before obeying, I strode to the door, flipping the lock. I wasn’t about to have anyone walking in on us; Adelaide’s body was mine and mine alone.
I kicked my loafers off and stripped off the rest of my clothes before climbing onto the bed and laying back against the pillows.
“Mmm,” Adelaide hummed as she stroked my cock. She nudged my knees apart and settled between my legs.
“Fuck, I love that.”
She opened her mouth and ran her tongue up and down my hard shaft.
“And I love you,” she said before wrapping her lips around me.
She had an otherworldly mouth. I had no doubt that I would be coming down her throat in minutes, especially if she kept sucking me like that.
“Baby, you’re amazing.” I brushed a lock of hair awayfrom her face, trying to focus on the sensation of her throat humming as my cock slid farther and farther in. I knew I was done for when she started cradling my balls and squeezed. The mixture of pleasure laced with a little pain had me seeing stars.
I threaded my fingers through her hair, giving it a light tug so she would look up at me. “I’m not going to last long if you keep squeezing me like that.”
Her mouth came off my cock with a lasciviouspop. “Like this?” she asked as she tightened her grasp again.
“Jesus, yes!”
I didn’t miss her sly grin as she licked the precum from my tip. I was going to make her pay for that in the best way.
“Don’t think I didn’t see that smile, love.”
She swirled her tongue over my tip once more before sitting up on her knees. “And?” she said innocently.
In one swift movement, I sat up and flipped her onto her back, earning a squeal from her. I used one hand to grab both of her wrists and restrain them above her head as I started kissing down her neck, making sure to hit that spot right by her clavicle that I knew would make her whimper. It was music to my ears.
“Oliver,” she panted.
“Hmmm.” I kissed across her collarbone, then back up her neck and to her ear. “What do you need?”
“You.”
