I was her first in so many ways.Her first real attraction.Her first kiss.Her first fuck.

She wasn’t any of those for me.

And yet she was the first for me in so many ways too.

I lift her from the water, her lips still on mine, kissing me gently.She wraps her arms tighter around my neck as I position her over my raging hard cock, throbbing for her despite the cold water we’re in.

She moans into the kiss as I slide into her warmth.But she doesn’t break the kiss.She deepens it as I slide in and out of her, slowly, wanting to make it last, knowing it won’t.I need this woman too much.Crave her all the time.Even in my sleep I dream only of her.

And now that she’s finally accepted me, finally accepted the connection we forged so long ago, in another life for both of us, I’ll never stop dreaming of her.Never stop needing her.Never stop craving her touch and her kisses.Her warmth, her soft touch even as she holds onto me for dear life.Her moans.Her sighs.

I hold onto her hips, struggling to keep my foothold in the ever-changing sand of the ocean bed and give her all of me too.

My thrusts start out long and slow.But it’s not a pace I can sustain.Not with her so willing and so mine, so open to receiving me, my love, us.

I pick up the pace, making her sighs, moans and breathless breaths come quicker and quicker, doing the same to my groans and other noises of pleasure she pulls right out of the deepest depths of my dark soul.All is right when I’m with her.

All will be right as long as she’s mine.

Even the darkness I carry in me, the darkness that very nearly caused me to murder her entire family just to get back what was once mine, just to get my revenge, isn’t so very dark anymore.Now it’s the color of the silver ocean all around us, dark yet laced with light.

She brought light back into my life.From the moment I first saw her I knew my days in darkness were done.But it’s taken me this long to finally accept that.

Her pussy clenches my cock as she comes hard, the long moan escaping her throat making her whole body vibrate, creating ripples upon ripples in the silver water around us.

I come too, burying my cock deep inside her, making us one.

She might not have been my first.But she will be my last.My forever.

From now on, we do everything together.Side by side.A husband and wife standing strong.The way I’d dream about back when I still knew how to have dreams and hopes that weren’t surrounded by death and hate and sadness from all sides.

She’s given me that too.A way to dream again.

I can never repay her for all that.

But I mean to die trying.

Chapter26

GIANNA

My familyand probably everyone I’d ever known would call what I did on that beach, swimming in that pool of melted moonlight, the ultimate betrayal.I kissed the enemy.Made love to him willingly.

But I loved every moment of it and every moment of the next seven days that followed.There has been no shortage of love and affection, no end to the nights of pleasant love making and wild passion, no end to days of doing anything and everything under the sun.

We even spend a whole day and night just watching all my favorite movies in the TV room upstairs.Turns out a lot of my favorites are his too.And he wasn’t just saying that, he could recite too many of the lines for it to just be a lie.

He’s spent more time with me this past week than with his army planning the war.Much more.And today he’s going to teach me to surf.

I’m in the kitchen with Maria who has packed us a lunch—a wicker picnic basket filled to the brim with sandwiches, fruit, cakes, and drinks.Matteo is in a meeting he couldn’t get out of and as the minutes pass, I’m getting more and more worried that maybe this is the day when he stops being able to make time for me.The day that war of his finally starts.

I’ve been worried about the war more and more now that I’ve decided to just let him show me all the freedom I’d been missing my whole life.

“What’s this curse Matteo keeps talking about.The family curse of ruin, or whatever,” I ask Maria before even deciding to say it.

I was hoping she’d laugh in my face, telling me it’s just an old superstition and nothing to worry about.Instead, she shakes, and looks at me over her shoulder, her eyes very wide and very full of fear.

“He told you about that?”she asks breathlessly and turns all the way towards me, wiping her hands on her apron.
