Page 52 of Finding Forever in Cedarwood

“Fucking Jesus, yes.” Liam tensed, then rocked into Stone.

Stone pushed past the tight ring of muscle and opened Liam. He needed to prep him. The dynamic wasn’t lost on him. Liam controlled so much in his life, but when they stepped into the bedroom, he gave himself over to Stone. He moved his finger in and out of Liam’s ass.

Liam shuddered. “I can’t…hold back.”

“Don’t,” Stone said between licks. He added a second finger and increased his speed. He matched the tempo of his fingers in Liam to the bobbing of his head.

A strangled cry came from Liam. The garbled sound might have been the word ‘fuck’, but Stone wasn’t sure. Liam jerked in Stone’s mouth as he came. He shivered and gasped. He continued to pump his hips, but moved slower with each push.

Liam collapsed limp on the bed. “Holy shit.”

Stone licked him clean. “That was good for me, too.” He withdrew his fingers. “But I’m not done. I want it to be better.”

“Yes.” Liam’s eyes flashed. A fine sheen of perspiration shimmered on his skin. His nipples beaded and he grabbed his knees, baring his ass. “Fuck me.”

“Yes.” He stroked himself, but he didn’t need much help. Seeing Liam come and knowing he had Liam’s love were what he needed. He lined his dick up with Liam’s hole. He added more lube, then pushed. As soon as he sank balls-deep into his lover, he paused.Holy shit.He’d never felt closer to anyone in his life. They were one body and one all-encompassing love.

Liam reached for him and threaded his arms around Stone’s neck. He kissed Stone while Stone pushed in, then pulled out.

Stone built into a steady rhythm. No question, his heart belonged to Liam. He couldn’t see life without Liam around. He lost himself in the sinful pleasure of making love to Liam. Skin on skin, body to body, they were one soul. Perfection.

Heat swirled in Stone’s belly. His limbs tingled and he bit Liam’s bottom lip.

“Come, Stone. Give in,” Liam murmured.

He didn’t need much to persuade him. He ratcheted up his speed and moved with abandon. He growled, forehead to forehead.

“Liam.” The response could’ve been a whisper or shout. He wasn’t sure. The orgasm overwhelmed him and rational thought left. His knees weakened as he slowed. He added five more thrusts before he stilled. His head swam and he wasn’t sure how he managed to hold himself up. He braced himself on his forearms. “Damn.”

“We’re down to one-word sentences.” Liam kept his arms around Stone’s neck. “I love it—and you.”

Stone panted. “I love you, too.” Mind blown, body worn down and soul free, he belonged to Liam. He’d never be the same. But did he care? No. Liam had been sent to Cedarwood and they’d come into each other’s orbit for a reason. Forget the warnings and arguments. His heart belonged to Liam and he knew to his core that Liam was devoted to him.

Stone embraced the silence between them as he gathered his bearings. He’d never been this wrung out before. Liam required everything from him.

“Stone?”

He withdrew from Liam, then settled beside him on the bed. “Yeah?”

“I want to change my status on social media.”

“Then do it.” He wasn’t sure what Liam was getting at. “It’s your social media presence. You can do with it what you want. Why? What did you want to say?”

“I want to change it to listing me being in a relationship,” Liam said, his voice strong. “I want to tell everyone that we’re together.”

“I hope you do. Isn’t that what we’re already doing?” He rolled onto his side and splayed his hand on Liam’s belly. “You’re here with me. You’re my boyfriend and I love you. I want to tell everyone.” He toyed with Liam’s indented navel. “You have no idea how guilty I feel about you getting hurt.” He couldn’t bring himself to look at the bandage again. “It’s killing me that the incident with…himhappened.”

“You didn’t hurt me.”

“But it happened because of me.” If he hadn’t dated Jeff, then the bastard wouldn’t have threatened and assaulted Liam. He would’ve left Liam alone.

“He would’ve done that to the next guy, no matter who happened to be your new boyfriend,” Liam said. “He was looking for trouble and found me.”

“Still.” He couldn’t hide his annoyance and irritation. “It never should’ve happened.”

“The incident opened my eyes. I could live without you, but I didn’t want to. I want this life with you and the critters. My career is fine, but it’s not everything,” Liam said. “I’m more than my job and I want everyone to know I’m not just marking time here.”

“You have to do what you feel is important,” Stone said. He caressed the line down the center of Liam’s abs, then pulled the blanket over him and Liam. “Change your status. Tell everyone you’re taken. In a relationship. Whatever. I don’t care. You’re mine.”
