He tosses the condom onto the nightstand without another word and joins me on the bed. He lines himself up with my entrance and looks back up at my face, locking eyes with me as he slowly slides into me. My eyes flutter closed and a satisfied moan leaves my lips as he fills me to the hilt.

“Jesus,” he breathes through clenched teeth. “You’re so tight, baby.”

“You feel so good,” I moan, dragging my fingers down his back and he claims my lips again as he pulls out slowly and sinks back in.

“I need to see your eyes, sweetheart.”

I open my eyes and as I meet his gaze, we connect. It intensifies the sensation of him gliding into me again and again, as we reach each other on another level. The depth of my feelings for this man in such a short amount of time knocks the wind out of me. And a part of me is still terrified but right now, I can’t deny that it feels so damn right. Shaking my head, I push the thoughts out of my mind, determined to focus on this incredible moment with him.

“Harder,” I plead and he complies, pulling out and shoving back into me with a little more force. He swivels his hips and I gasp before he pulls out and rocks back into my core. God, he’s a master. It has never felt this good before. I’m already teetering on the edge of the cliff, just needing a little more to push me over.

“Baby, I need you to get there,” he says and the strain in his voice is my undoing. I shatter around him, calling out his name as I grip his wide shoulders. He groans and really lets loose, pounding into me relentlessly as he chases his own orgasm.

His muscles tense just before he stills and groans, “Fuck!”

He drops his head to my shoulder and releases a breath, holding his weight off me as he kisses up my neck until he finds my lips and then shoves his tongue into my mouth. He draws another moan out of me as my hands fist in his hair and I kiss him back with just as much enthusiasm.

When he pulls away and stares down at me, his chest is heaving as he tries to catch his breath. “God, that was—”

“Incredible?” I say and he smiles. “Earth shattering? The best I’ve ever had?”

“Yeah, all that and more, sweetheart.” He stares down at me and something in his eyes changes. “Emma, I… you are the most amazing woman I’ve ever met.”

I get the distinct feeling that he’s holding something back but the look in his eyes scares me a little bit so I don’t push the issue. Because, in this moment, I wonder if I can trust him with my heart as much as I trust him with everything else.
