This makes him smile. “Oh, baby, you’re going to enjoy this ride.”

He unbuttons his pants and then stands, pulling me with him. I begin to pull my shirt over my head, but he stops me.

“Let me undress you,” he leans in and whispers in my ear.

He moves slowly. He’s not in any hurry. This feels different than the last time we were together.

His fingertips brush lightly over my skin, and I shiver. When we’re undressed, he pulls me onto the bed. I awkwardly turn to my stomach, not sure how he wants to do this. I mean, obviously I’m not new at this, but fuck, I’m so nervous. I feel like it’s my first time.

Ash is patient, but he rolls me over, taking the lead.

“I want to see your face,” he says quietly, his palm resting on my stomach. “Relax.”

I nod, but when his hand starts to drift between my legs, he realizes I’m holding my breath. He stops, and I can’t say that I mind, because it’s warm and feels so good.

“Hey, breathe,” he reminds me.

“I’m sorry. I don’t know why I’m so nervous. It’s silly.”

His face softens. “You’re anxious because this is the first time someone’s made love to you. Let me love you, baby. You just listen to your body, and do what feels right. We’ve got this.”

“Okay,” I say, taking a deep breath and then releasing it.

He insists I take another one, and then his hand begins to move between my legs.

A little humming noise vibrates in my throat, and my hand slowly slides over his chest. He begins to kiss me, and when my hand glides lower, my fingers wrap around his length. I feel him smile against my lips.

Our touches become more insistent, our breaths shallow as the hunger we’ve buried for so long rises to the surface. He presses his forehead against mine. “I need to be in you, Lexie.”

He shifts so his body is over mine, and I immediately hug him close. “I need that too,” I whisper against the shell of his ear. Fuck, he smells so good. “Please,” I beg.

He lifts up on his forearms and stares into my eyes as he rubs himself against me. My breath hitches each time the tip of his cock slides to my entrance.

“Please, please, Ash. I want you to make love to me.”

That’s all it takes before he slowly begins to push into me.

“Oh, oh, god, that feels good.”

His gaze holds mine hostage, and he stills when he’s fully inside of me. “I’ve waited so long for this,” he says. “It’s better than I ever imagined. You’re so warm and soft.”

Ash holds my head in between his hands as he begins to move. Slow and steady. His eyes never leave mine as he whispers words no one has ever said to me. He’s not just fucking me; he’s making sure I know this is more than that.

We continue to stare at each other, and I wrap my legs around him, drawing him in closer with each thrust. I’ve never felt this close to another human being. He’s not hurried as each tilt of his hips makes my body climb higher and higher.

“Ash.” My eyes begin to water, and the look of satisfaction on his face is enough to push me over the edge. “Oh, god,” I rasp, clinging to his shoulders as I come.

But this man doesn’t miss a beat. His rhythm remains the same, the only thing that changes is the way his thumbs brush against my face as he wipes tears from my cheeks.

He makes me come again and again before he finally picks up speed. His face falls into the crook of my neck, and I feel him grow inside of me. He groans out my name as he pushes into my body one final time and holds himself there.

“Oh, fuck, Ash, I …”

He doesn’t let me finish because his mouth crashes against mine, and I discover he’s ready to go again.

“Fuck, I love you, Lexie.” He molds against me, and this time he fucks me like he’s trying to fill me with his very essence. Like he’s making sure my body knows who it belongs to.

After he comes a second time, we lie glued together in sweat and cum. “I don’t want to move,” he says, struggling to catch his breath. “I could live inside of you forever.”
