But I also want to worship her with my hands, cherish her with my mouth, give her more pleasure than she dreamed possible.
So I slide down, push apart her legs, and squeeze her thighs with my first taste. When she tries to push upward, into me, I push her back down, knowing what she likes. This strong, fierce woman enjoys being controlled in bed, and I’m more than happy to oblige.
So when she grabs my hair, none too gently, I reach up, without missing a beat, and hold her wrist down. I’m throbbing with the need to be inside her, but I ignore it. I also ignore her plea for me to fuck her.
With both of her wrists pinned now, I look up.
“When you come,” I say, “and not a second before.”
She shudders, Chari’s entire body telling me it’s ready.
Too bad.
I’m not.
Another taste, this time with Chari knowing full well I’m in control. Her hips lift as she screams my name. A sweeter sound, I’ve never heard.
“For God’s sake, Enzo.”
When I look up, it’s to see Chari’s blessedly naked body sprawled out above me like the grandest feast known to man. I don’t waste any time. Reaching for the package and tearing it open, I make eye contact with her.
I can see it in her gaze: she’s forgiven me.
She’s willing to try again.
The knowledge of it makes me impatient. I know she’s ready, and I’m beyond so. As I slip inside her sweet wetness, I position myself to free up one hand. I’m relentless with it, caressing her breasts, her clit. Soon Chari’s pulling me toward her, a good sign . . .
But I’m not ready for this to end.
I have a powerful need for this woman, one that’s built up for weeks, made fiercer by the knowledge that I almost lost her for good.
“If I’m hurting you . . .”
“You’re not. Not now, at least.”
The reminder is a potent one. The fact that she’s allowed me back into her life, back into her body . . .
“Never again, Chari. I swear it.”
Each thrust is another promise, but before long I’m having a hard time holding back.
“Yes, Enzo. Yes!”
She’s close, and so am I.
Of all the things I’ve told her today, there’s only one thing I left out. The most important thing of all. And now seems like the perfect time to correct that lapse.
“Chari. I am so in love with you.”
Her eyes widen, and she comes in a great, powerful rush. So I let go too, wanting to squeeze my eyes shut against the sweet pain of it but also wanting to watch her expression. Needing to. Her lips are sweetly parted, and I have no choice but to capitalize on it.
I kiss her, our tongues tangling for what seems like forever. Until a loud crackle from the fireplace reminds me of where we are. Of what I still need to ask her.
“Give me another chance,” I say, pulling away.
She’s so damn expressive. The love she has for everyone—her family, her students—I want some of it. I want her to cherish me that way too.
“I love you,” I remind her, just in case she didn’t hear me.
