Hearing dirty talk fall from his lips while he thrusts into me is so out of character for him—and so damn hot.
He holds on tightly to my ass, and he slides in and out of me, the friction driving me to a place I’m not sure I’ve ever visited. It’s beautiful and thrilling, magical and satisfying.
“Oh, God, yes!” I yell, throwing my head back as I keep my hands planted on the headboard. “Fuck me harder, Spencer!”
He does, and it throws me headfirst into a brutal, intense, jarring climax.
I screech my way through it, yelling out his name and praying once again as Oh God comes out of my mouth, clearly my go-to phrase when I start to come, and my reaction must spur him into his reaction, too, because he growls out a fuck, Gracie, before he picks up speed and thrusts up hard into me a few times before he freezes and lets out a mighty roar followed by a few more pumps that are just enough to take me to the end of my own release.
I drop my hands from the headboard and collapse on top of him. His hands are still on my ass, and he’s still inside me, and I’m struck with the thought that I could stay right here for the rest of my life.
I want to stay right here for the rest of my life.
I know that’s not realistic, but goddamn, this man is really something else.
If I could just figure out how to hold onto him longer than a year, I’d really have the dream.
But there’s someone else involved in all this who has other plans, and she’ll stop at nothing to get what she thinks she deserves.
Chapter 35: Grace Nash
What Time on Tuesday
Six Days After the Wedding
He looks so sweet when he’s sleeping. I haven’t really taken the time to observe that, but as I wake up a little before seven, I allow myself the time to study him for a few beats.
We’re both naked, tangled together after the night where we finally had the time to express how we’re both feeling, and I don’t ever want to move.
I know I have to. I need to get to my office. I’ve been gone nearly a week now, and I’m sure there’s a mountain of things to do.
But right now, I just want to stare at the way his forehead smooths in his sleep, at the little freckles I never noticed before peppering across the top of his straight nose, at the short hairs of his eyebrows, and at the scruff covering his strong jawline. At the hair that’s always so neat now mussed from sleep, and the full lips that worshiped my body last night.
And speaking of his lips, that dirty mouth of his…my God. It’s going to be the end of me.
His eyes slowly start to open, and I close mine before he catches me staring. I shift in his arms to let him know I’m awake, and when I open my eyes, I see him peering at me with those blue ones of his. My privacy shades keep it fairly dark in here, but his eyes are still bright from the little bit of light peeking its way in around the sides.
And it’s as our eyes meet that I know for sure.
I’m in love with him.
It’s not just from the sex, though holy hell, that’s been top-notch. It’s from the strong foundation we built first as friends.
I can picture this love carrying us into a future where he’s the one pressing that glass of wine into my palm after a long day.
He leans forward and presses his lips to my forehead. “Morning,” he murmurs.
“Morning.” I duck my face so my morning dragon breath doesn’t scare him away. “As much as I don’t want to move out of your arms, I need to get to work.”
Instead of words, he responds by turning into me and tightening his arms around me. “I don’t want to face reality. I just want to keep living in this dream with you.”
An overwhelming sensation tightens my chest as I snuggle a little more closely into him. “Same.”
We don’t move for a few sweet moments, just holding onto one another in this perfection, but then my alarm starts to ring, letting me know I need to get into the shower or I’m going to be late.
We both sigh, and I turn out of his arms to click my alarm off before I get up and pad over to the bathroom to shower.
When I get out, he’s not in bed anymore. I get dressed, pull my wet hair into a bun since I’m already running short on time, put on some makeup, and meet him in the kitchen.
