“Yes!” Evelyn said breathlessly.
He licked all the way down her slit. Evelyn moaned and spread her legs wider apart. His tongue dipped inside her before teasing her clit. He sucked at that perfect spot while she squirmed.
The tension coiled inside her. “Right there! Keep going!”
Just as Evelyn was about to tip over the edge, Leo sat up.
She let out an embarrassing, completely involuntary noise of protest. “Leo? What?—”
His mouth found hers and Evelyn could taste herself on his lips. The hardness of him nudged at her entrance and she almost forgave Leo for denying her what she needed.
Evelyn lifted her hips to urge him forward. “Please!”
Very slowly, Leo pushed into her. The walls of Evelyn’s core stretched around him. She didn’t share her next thoughts out loud.
Finally. Stop messing around and fuck me already.
Leo eased himself out. “You feel amazing. You’re so wet.” Not going any faster this time, he sank into her again and pulled back out.
“Are you trying to make this last until sunrise?” Evelyn joked to hide her frustration.
“I never want to leave this bed.”
Evelyn’s mind wandered as Leo made love to her at an agonizingly slow pace.
This is the complete opposite of what I did with Haydn. It was like he instinctively knew what to do with me. But Leo and I are not on the same page here.
Would Damien know how to touch me? Could he make me?—
No! I’m not thinking about Damien or Haydn on my wedding night.
Enough of this.
Evelyn grabbed Leo’s hair and pulled him close. She hardly recognized the low, commanding voice that came out of her. “Leo. Ilovethat you are sweet and gentle with me. But right now, I need you to make me scream. I want to forget my own name and feel sore tomorrow. Okay?”
He hesitated for a heartbeat. “That’s what you like?”
She nodded before remembering he couldn’t see her in the dark. “Yes.”
Leo thrust into her. Evelyn cried out and he took that as approval. The change in pace had an immediate effect on her body. Her mind shut off as Leo moved the way she wanted. Evelyn rocked her hips in sync with his thrusts, increasing the friction she craved. While he wasn’t as fast or rough as Haydn had been, there was an additional element of pleasure in knowing that herhusbandwas inside her.
Evelyn’s release came with little warning. A strangled cry escaped her throat as the orgasm set her nerves on fire. Leo found his own relief soon after, then collapsed on the bed. Evelyn savored the feel of his seed between her legs. She rolled toward him and put a hand on his chest. His skin was slick with sweat and his heart thundered.
“I love you,” Leo said, catching his breath.
“I love you, too.”

Impossible
A beam of warm sunlight fell across the bed through a gap in the curtains. Evelyn smiled at the stillness of the room, as well as the dull pressure lingering between her legs. Leo slept with one arm thrown over his head, his breathing deep and his eyelids twitching with dreams. They were surrounded by faint scents of lavender from the nightstand and sweat from the bedsheets.
This is all I want, waking up beside Leo every?—
A smallthudsound interrupted her thoughts.
Did something land on the roof? Is there an attic?
