“I missed you, too,” I sighed as he kissed along my jaw.
“For the past month, I dreamed of being surrounded by your scent.” He took a deep breath. I shivered when he let it back out, and the hot air blew into my ear. “And the softness of your skin.” His fingers trailed down my neck, along my spine, and then up my shirt. He palmed one of my breasts, and I hissed at how sensitive they were as the nipple puckered. “I fantasized about all the sounds you make when I touch you.” He lifted my shirt over my head, our eyes meeting when he dropped the material on the floor. “Craved the look on your face as I gave you pleasure.”
I stared into his eyes as he lowered his head to take my mouth in a deep kiss. His tongue slid in my mouth to tangle with mine, and I moaned. “That’s right, baby. Let me hear you. Give me what I’ve been missing. I need you so much.”
“I’m yours, Vaughn. Yesterday. Today. Always.”
My vow pushed him past the point of no return. He swept me into his arms and carried me to my bedroom. He gently laid me down on the mattress, and his hands made quick work of the rest of my clothes before he stripped naked. Then he crawled between my legs, his palms gliding up my thighs. “Damn fucking straight you’re mine, and only mine. Forever.”
He stretched out over me, pressing one of his fists into the mattress to keep his weight off my body. I felt his hard length brush against my inner thigh and let out a little whimper of need. It grew louder when he cupped my breast with his free hand and ran his thumb over the pebbled nipple. I arched my back up, reveling in his touch after so long. He took the hint and lowered his head to suck my nipple into his mouth, toying with both of them until I started to wonder if the pregnancy had made me sensitive enough to come just from breast play.
I was so close to the edge when he lifted his head and lined himself up at my entrance. “I can’t wait another minute. I need to feel your tight pussy wrapped around my cock, baby.”
“Neither can I,” I urged, wrapping my legs around his waist.
He slid inside me, hard and fast, until he was buried balls deep in my pussy. My head dropped back against the pillow as he groaned. “Oh, fuck, yes.”
He slowly dragged his cock from my body and quickly plunged back inside. Then he set a punishing pace, my walls tightening around him with every thrust of his hips. “Oh, Vaughn. Yes! More, please. I’m so close.”
He slid a hand between us and circled my clit with his thumb, sending me over the edge. I cried out his name over and over again as my orgasm crashed over me. After two more thrusts, he anchored his cock deep inside me and came hard too. “Fuck, baby! Yes!”
When we both caught our breaths, he gently pulled his cock out of my pussy and rolled to his side. Pulling me against his chest, he buried his face in the crook of my neck and ran his fingers through my hair. “That was even better than I remembered.”
I cuddled closer and murmured, “I have a feeling my hormones are going to make for an interesting time over the next seven months or so. I’m way more sensitive than usual.”
“I’m more than up for the task of keeping you well satisfied. No matter how often you need me.” He cupped my belly and added, “It’s only fair since you made my dreams come true, baby. Even the ones I didn’t know I had.”EpilogueAllie2 months later…“I’d like to make a toast.” All eyes turned to James as he lifted a glass of sparkling white grape juice. We’d joked earlier in the evening about how unfair it was that the host and half the guests of honor couldn’t partake of the good stuff for health reasons, but neither of us really minded. I had no problem making sacrifices for the sake of the baby, and James’s doctors were happy with his progress over the past couple of months.
It was great to see him looking healthier. Vaughn attributed his improvement to having Mila in his life and his wicked now-ex-wife out of it, but I thought a big part of it was seeing Vaughn happy and his excitement over becoming a grandfather soon.
He waited until the room fell silent before continuing, “I first met Vaughn when he was a teenager. Life hadn't given him many reasons to trust, and it took a while for him to understand that I meant it when I said I would be there for him for the long haul. He likes to say that I rescued him that day, but I know he's the one who gave me a chance for redemption.”
