“Hang on tight, princess. I’m going to make sure you feel this tomorrow.”
His raunchy promise is the only warning I get before he’s balls deep inside me. His hands grip my hips so hard it almost hurts as he yanks my body back while he thrusts forward, crashing into me again and again until I cry out my first orgasm.
He is a man on a mission. There is no finesse. Only brute force as Dex claims my body as his again and again. With each stroke, I’m getting wetter and wetter until the sound of our bodies slapping together becomes the X-rated soundtrack in the air.
“Dex!” I call out as he moves one hand to my hair, yanking it so hard that my head snaps back. I arch as he maneuvers his shaft even deeper with our new angle.
His lips are on my neck, nibbling softly in direct contrast to the almost brutal rutting of his cock.
I feel his breath against the shell of my ear. “Your pussy is perfect, baby. So tight. So wet.”
I flush with pleasure at his dirty compliment. His thrusts become more erratic as he nears his climax, and I want it more than anything. In our short week as lovers, I’ve started craving the hot as hell moans he makes just before he loses control and shoots his cum inside me. Today, he calls out my name just as he peaks, finally holding his hips still while his twitching cock stays nestled deep.
We cling to each other as we catch our breath. I feel empty when he softens and slips from my body. I know we’re making a mess when our combined wetness drips down my inner thighs, but it feels so good to be back in his arms, I don’t care.
His lips are back on my body, nibbling along my bare shoulder and up to my neck. Then he spins me in his arms until he can lower his lips to mine again, this time in a softer, more reverent kiss. By the time he pulls out of our kiss we’re both breathing hard. He leans down, intimately resting his forehead against mine.
I keep my eyes closed as I finally speak again. “Dex… I’m scared. How do I know I can trust you?”
He leans back, using his thumb to gently brush my cheek until I open my eyes. Once he’s sure he has my attention, he answers. “The same way I’m going to trust you not to kick me out again the first time we disagree, and believe me… we will disagree at times.”
I know he’s right, but I also know he loves The Whitney as much as I do.
“I think we should sign the new contract today.”
An expression I can’t quite read passes over his face just before he adds, “Not yet.”
My pulse spikes. After all we’ve been through, is he backing out now?
A sexy grin lights up his face before he adds, “I want to negotiate one more thing.”
I hear the playfulness in his voice so I answer in turn. “You’re being greedy,” I accuse, hugging him tighter.
“Yep,” he agrees.
“So, what is it you want now? I’m already giving you half ownership of The Whitney.”
Dex lifts me off my feet and I’m forced to wrap my legs around his waist to hold myself up just as he gives me my answer. “You. In my bed every night for the rest of our lives.”
If I had any doubts about how I really feel, they disappear in that moment. All the pain and betrayal from the day before falls away, leaving only love in its wake.
“Deal,” I reply, and it feels like an ‘I do,’ as I smile at him. “But… only if you let me sleep in every once in a while. I may love you, but I’ll never love getting up at the crack of dawn.”
“You love me?” he asks, an odd vulnerability in his voice.
I wipe the smile off my face, getting serious again before answering truthfully. “I think I’ve always loved you in one way or another. I was just too afraid to admit it, even to myself.”
“No more being afraid, for either of us, okay?” he prompts.
“I’ll try,” I answer truthfully.
My insides flutter as his face lights up with the devilish smile I love. “You’d better try, or I might have to come up with some new consequences to help convince you how much I love you.”
