Page 74 of Ashes to Ashes

“I thought if you dominated me, if you remembered what it was like between us, you’d keep me. You’d remember what we have, and you’d want to fight forit.”

“I know exactly what we have,” I told her, my voice turning to steel. “Don’t ever doubtthat.”

She sat up with tears pooling in her eyes and her lip trembling. “Then why do you want me to go? Why are you trying to send meaway?”

“I told you, Rae. I’m no good for you. I’ll just hold youback.”

She shook her head emphatically, as if she could sense my resolve crumbling and if she was forceful enough, she could turn it to dust through simple will. “You won’t. I won’t let that happen.”

I didn’t know if she was aware that as she spoke, her hips mindlessly undulated over me, sending a fresh swell of blood straight to my cock. Oh god, what I wouldn’t give to have my cock in her pussy right now. Rae was right. It was good between us. So, so good. It had never been like this for me with any other woman. I’d spent years being faithful to Sonia, and she’d treated me like garbage. We’d never had a future, and yet I’d fought like hell for her. I’d given her years to prove her love for me, so why couldn’t I give Rae thesame?

Because you don’t want to get hurt again. Because you always knew things were going to end badly between you and Sonia. Your real fear isn’t Rae leaving you; it’s her NOT leaving. It’s the fear of being happy together, of having a future with this woman. That when all is said and done, she’s your other half and that fucking terrifiesyou.

And there it was. The truth of why I was trying to push her away. And it was all fucking bullshit. Rae was my soul; I would die without her. And, I knew, she was less than who she could be without me. Together, we were more than the sum of our parts. Together we were whole.

“Oh fuck. I don’t care what the doctor said,” I groaned, slipping my hands between us and down the front of her pants to find her pussy wet, her clit hard. “Take this off and ride mycock.”

Rae jumped off my lap and tugged her pants off. She threw them behind her, and in seconds, she’d straddled my thighs again. And then, in the span of two heartbeats, her fiery heat was enveloping me as she sank down the length of cock with a ragged sigh. Her head fell back. “Fuck,” she moaned. “You feel sogood.”

With frantic hands, I gripped her hips and guided her movements. Fast, fast, fast. I could feel a slight pull in my stitches, but I didn’t care. The pain was worth it. I needed to be inside of this woman always. Rae’s pussy milking my cock was the best fucking feeling in the world. “That’s it. Ride me. Ride mehard.”

“Oh god,” she sang. “Oh god, oh god. I’m coming.”

“Come all over my cock, baby. Just like that. Right there.”

Rae’s pussy gripped my dick like a vice as her orgasm ripped through her. Her mouth opened in a silent “O” and her eyes went glassy as she rode the wave to shore. And with another driving thrust of my hips, I joined her with a shout.

We collapsed onto the floor in a heap of tangled limbs. “Does this mean I get to stay?” she asked.

I cradled her against my good side. “If you tried to leave, I’d drag you back by your hair and tie you up in my basement.”

“You don’t have a basement,” she laughed. “But I like the sound of the rest ofit.”
