Page 39 of Married Into Love

He swiveled his hips, and my toes clenched against the sheets. My climax was so close, and I knew it was going to be a big one. I wanted to close my eyes. To protect myself because I knew there would be no hiding what I felt for Alec in that moment. But I kept them open as my pussy clenched around him and I screamed his name. When I didn’t think I could take any more, he planted himself deep andgroaned.

“Do you understand what I was trying to show you?” he murmured as he pulled meclose.

I tilted my head back and smiled up at him. “Ido.”

“That wasn’t just sex, Alessia. It was more. It’s alwaysbeenmore.”

“I know,” I admitted softly. “Because we love eachother.”

His arms tightened around me. “Are you trying to tell me you love me,beautiful?”

“Yeah.”

“Then let me hear it straight up. Give me those three littlewords.”

I laughed at how he didn’t ask; he told. But I gave him what he wanted anyway. “I loveyou,Alec.”

“And I love you,Alessia.”

Resting my head against his chest, I sucked in a deep breath in an attempt to hold back the tears that filled my eyes. It didn’t work, but that was okay because they were happy ones. Against all the odds, my life had gone from the worst it’d ever been to more than I’d dreamed of for myself in the span of one short week. And it wasn’t because I had money in the bank and a place to live. No, it was because I had Alec. My white knight. My husband who I loved and who lovedmeback.
