He rubbed my back, brushing a kiss along my forehead. "Again?"
I huffed out a breathless laugh, weakly swatting his chest. "Shut up."
His breath ruffled my hair as he laughed, and he waited all of ten seconds before lazily rolling us over, turning, and scooting us up the mattress to let my head rest on one of the pillows.
"Don't go down on me again," I whined. "My poor clit can't take it."
Shadow laughed lightly, lips tickling my skin as he brushed kisses along my collarbones. "Then where would you like me?"
He was still inside me, so I squeezed my legs around him in reply, bringing his mouth to mine because I couldn't get enough of his kisses. "Right here."
His tongue thrust into my mouth just as his hips rolled forward, filling me with a delicious, sweet ache.
"Yes," I moaned, wrapping my hands around his back. "More."
He answered with a hungry growl, drawing his hips back and snapping them forward, making me see stars with the rough crash of his body into mine.
"Oh fuck, yes!" I clung to the wide muscles of his back, my ragged panting returning. "Like that, Shadow."
"Fuck," he grunted out in return, lips catching mine in a rough kiss as his steady, measured thrusts became frenzied rutting. When he wasn't kissing me, he moaned into the pillow next to my head, finally lost in the pleasure he took from my body.
"Oh fuck, don't stop," I pleaded over the slaps of our skin, the headboard thumping against the wall. "Fuck, that's so good, Shadow..."
I was being extra vocal because I didn't want to leave any room for doubts. He was so careful, so worried about hurting me, I didn't want a single whimper or cry to pull him out of this moment, to make him stop and think instead of just feeling good with me.
"Yes...oh, yes..." I dragged my teeth along his neck and shoulder, digging into his back with my nails, knowing he liked some pain with his pleasure.
"Oh fuck, Mari..."
He drove into me harder, the rougher friction and his cock swelling sending me hurtling toward another orgasm.
"Shadow!" I cried weakly, my whole body taut as a wire as he fucked me wildly.
Then sweet, explosive release, Shadow's chasing right after mine with stuttering thrusts and ragged, gasping breaths.

SHADOW
When Mari’s eyelids started to droop, I rubbed a thumb across her cheek and kissed her forehead to rouse her. “Want me to take you to your room?”
She made a soft grunting noise as she rubbed her eyes. “Why would I go to my room?”
I lowered my forehead until it rested on hers. “Don’t make me remind you why.”
She blinked at me, eyes more alert than a moment ago. “When was the last time you had a nightmare?”
“Um.” I pulled away from her, rolling onto my back as I thought. “Three nights ago. But one where I also sleepwalked?” I scratched my head. “Two and a half, almost three weeks, I think.”
“Really?” Mari actually sounded unsurprised as she scooted closer, propping her chin on my chest as she smoothed a hand over me. “What’s changed?”
“Doc,” I admitted, clasping my hand with hers where it rested on my side. “He’s been…working with me.”
“I knew it.” She grinned triumphantly, letting her cheek fall to my chest.
“How?”
She shrugged. “I know doctors. I can spot ‘em in a crowd.”
