Page 35 of Mending Our Chance

“Shit! I didn’t grab a condom.”

Part of me had a delightful thought about a future with her. The other part was horrified that I could possibly screw this up even more royally than where we could be headed. If there was a baby and our business failed, what the hell were we going to do then? Choosing to focus on the negative, my body lost its rhythm and I froze up.

Felicity never broke her stride. Shaking her head back and forth, she muttered something about birth control and being clean at her last checkup. “Haven’t had sex since,” she added as she dropped onto me and lay completely flat. However, those hips never stopped riding my cock. “And I sure as hell haven’t had sex like this since the last time we were in this position.”

My eyes widened. “Yeah? Is that so?” My voice was raw, unable to hide the emotions that were swirling in my mind.

“No one is like you, Marcus.”

That was it. The final straw.

I threw out all concerns and focused on the here and now. I captured her hair and brought her mouth down on mine for a scorching kiss. I then clapped my free hand to her lower back and held her in place as I pounded into her. Nothing else mattered in that moment. I came undone in her hands and pumped my orgasm into her. She was right behind me. As the walls of her insides clenched in sheer pleasure, I wanted to yell, telling the whole world I had laid claim to this woman and wasn’t letting her go. Her lips savaged mine as our two bodies rode the wave of pleasure as one.

When it was over, and Felicity remained spread out on top of me, I kissed her dark hair. “Sorry, that wasn’t very romantic at the end.”

“Hmm,” she murmured. Her fingers inched up to my hair. “Doesn’t matter. Sex isn’t always perfect—it’s sloppy, just like life. Besides, it didn’t stop me from coming. But thanks for being the responsible one here. I was so desperate to have you that I lost my mind.”

I chuckled. “I like the fact that you feel that way about me.”

“I couldn’t help it. I’ve wanted to be with you for a long time now, and tonight I wasn’t letting anything stop me.”

A jolt went through me. My lower half was waking back up to the idea that I could have this beautiful woman again. In some ways I had failed her by not being on time to save her aunt. However, she had already been marked by fate. But I couldn’t be late again for Felicity. I would work and I would slave for this woman, and I would make her goals my own. Starting now.

“More?” I asked.

Felicity nipped my lower lip. “I’m ready. Are you?”

In answer, I flipped her over. “My turn,” I growled.

Nope, I couldn’t screw this up.
