The corner of my mouth lifts when she takes her time, brushing her hands over my bare arms as she pushes the shirt off.
When her hands drop to my belt, I reach for her and unzipping the back of her dress, I push the fabric from her shoulders, letting it fall to her feet.
Once our clothes are scattered over the floor, I whisper, “The only thing I want is to be with you, as close as I can be.”
Jamie steps forward and pressing her body against mine, she wraps her hand around the back of my neck and slowly pulls me down to her as our eyes never leave each other.
Our mouths touch, and then there’s only us. My heartbeat speeds up, and I wrap my arms around her. My fingers brush lightly up her back, and it makes her shiver against me. Slipping a hand into her hair, I tighten my hold on her as I deepen the kiss. Our tongues explore each other, soft then hungrily, and it pushes me to the edge of losing control, but I want this night to be special.
I pull her toward the bed, and for a moment, our mouths separate as she sits down, scooting back over the covers. Breathless, I stare down at her. Seeing the same need on her face has me placing a knee on the mattress.
She opens her legs as I move in between them and I first place a kiss to the inside of her thigh, before I brush my lips over her skin until I reach the sensitive area above her opening. I begin to nip and suck at her and being overwhelmed by my hunger for her, I don’t stop until my lips are tingling and she’s writhing beneath me. Pressing a finger against her opening, I rub hard circles around it until her body tenses, and she lets out a moan as she orgasms.
Leaving her for a moment, I reach over to the bedside table and pull a box of condoms from the top drawer. Grabbing one, I tear the foil open using my teeth, then quickly roll it on.
Crawling over Jamie, I keep myself braced on my left arm, and I place my right on her hip. She stares up at me, her expression intense as she brings her hands to my shoulders.
Everything I feel reflects on her face. Leaning down, I close my mouth over hers and kiss her with every ounce of love I’m feeling.
I don’t want to live without her. I can’t breathe without her next to me.
I move my hand up over her ribs and cupping her breast, I knead her flesh until our bodies writhe against each other, needing more. I slide my hand back down and taking hold of myself, I rub over her slickness before I align myself with her opening.
My gaze drifts over her face before settling on her eyes. For a moment, we only stare at each other, then I whisper, “You’re everything I’ve ever wanted but didn’t know I needed.”
Her eyes begin to shimmer in the dim light. I press a soft kiss to her mouth, and murmur, “I love you, Jamie.”Chapter 37JamieMy body begins to tremble from feeling overwhelmed by the significant moment we’re sharing.
A lump pushes up my throat, making it impossible to say the words back to him. Instead, I lift my hand to the back of his neck and pull him down to me until our foreheads touch.
There’s a heartbreaking look on Julian’s face as he pushes inside me, and it makes tears escape my eyes.
When he’s fully inside me, I manage to whisper with a quivering voice, “I love you so much.”
Julian presses his mouth to mine, his eyes drifting closed as if he’s soaking up the words I just said. His hips pull back, and when he pushes into me again, his eyes open, burning into me with intensity.
This is the moment we fought so hard for. This is what I feared losing the most.
Getting to be with Julian and having a future with him.
Julian begins to kiss my tears away as our bodies start to move together. I’m swept up in my emotions of making love to Julian, and when he moves faster, it steals my ability to breathe.
I wrap my arms around his neck, clinging to him – my lifeline and the only place I feel safe.
The rampant emotions begin to calm down a little, and I feel his toned body move against mine. Every time he thrusts inside me, it makes the pleasure begin to grow in my abdomen.
Our eyes never leave each other as we find our release together.
Julian’s movements steadily slow down until he stills against me. His gaze caresses my face, and then he whispers, “I’ll be right back.”
I climb under the covers as Julian uses the restroom, then he switches off the light before coming to bed.
