“So fucking perfect, baby girl.”
Stunned at how much she liked his approval, she closed her eyes and felt him breach the knot of muscles. He slid his thumb inside and murmured words of encouragement when she gasped. A moment passed as she became accustomed to the feeling, and then another before she enjoyed it, pushing against his hand.
“Tell me if you want it,” he said in a voice filled with need. “Because I’m ready to give you everything.”
“All of it. I want all of you.”
“Then that’s what you're going to get.” He thrust heavily. “Come on, my cock.”
He sent shockwaves of pleasure through her body, making her pant and groan. Her nipples drug across the covers, and his fingers and cock filled her up, making the orgasm that exploded through her body monumental.
“I can feel that. You’re coming so hard.”
Tears slipped down her face as her body spasmed out of control. Teague shouted his release, and she held on for dear life, feeling boneless as they both surrendered to something bigger.
Teague’s brain and body were blasted. Panting like he finished a ten-mile run with a ruck, he collapsed and pulled Tancy into his arms. Had someone put him on the stand, he would’ve sworn under oath that he and Tancy had just become one. There had been no separation between their flesh and hearts, and he knew it would always be true if they put a little work into it.
Lofty and somewhat unrealistic? Absolutely. But given that it was his specialty, he didn’t give a damn. He was going to shoot for the stars and take Tancy with him.
He loved her with every part of his being and probably had for quite some time.
Were the endorphins and serotonin flooding his brain responsible for the easy proclamations? Hell yeah. But he also had several years worth of history to back it up.
He rolled over and ran his finger over her cheek. “I know this is going to make you uncomfortable, but…”
“Oh God, was it bad?” She scooted away. “I thought it was amazing, and…”
“I love you.”
“Oh.”
Confusion played across her features, and he knew she wasn’t ready to express her feelings.
“Just like that?” she whispered. “Doesn’t it seem too soon?”
He tugged her closer. “The last three years have provided more than enough intel. I’ve seen you at your best and worst and can confidently say I know what I’m getting into.”
“That’s true.” She bit her bottom lip. “So the sex was okay?”
“Babe, it was off the charts, over the top extraordinary.”
She closed her eyes and nodded. “That sounds like you enjoyed it.”
“So much that I’d like to do it every day for the next fifty years.”
Laughing, she took his hand. “Now, that is the kind of enthusiasm that turns a woman’s head.”
“What about your heart? How’s that feeling?”
“Very full,” she replied, tracing the veins on his forearms. “Because I know what I’m getting into as well.”
“Oh, yeah?”
“I’m a keen observer and know, for example, that you have more patience than a monk trying to prove a point. Which is something that has always worked in my favor when one of my tangents takes over.”
“And I know that your laughter is one of the top five sounds in the world.” It’s a mixture of rain on a tin roof and a wildfire. Incredibly calming while also all-consuming.” He ran his hand down her back. “I hope to hear it at least once a day for the foreseeable future.”
“If you continue claiming that you’re undefeated in Mario Kart, then you certainly will.”
