He stops for a moment and smiles, eyes dark and crazed. “I love how you taste like mine.”
Holy shit, it’s the hottest thing I’ve ever heard a man say.
“I want you, Linc.” I feel like I can’t breathe. My panties are in a state of ruin, and the need to be with him is all-consuming. “I’m done pretending that I don’t, because I want you. All of you.”
He stands, kicking off his pants from his ankles, and holds out his hands to help me up.
“On my bed, Melonie.”
Chapter Fifty-Eight
Linc
She walks to my bed. I’ve barely caught my breath from coming, and I’m already hard again.
She crawls onto the mattress, and I pause. My brain begins to clear from the haze of one of the most intense orgasms of my life, and I know I don’t want just sex. I don’t want us to go back to normal morning routines after this. It’s already hard to live with her without the ability to call her mine, but if we do this, she could crush me.
She turns and sits to face me. “Linc?”
“Mel, I can’t do this.”
Her face fills with confusion. “Why?”
“Because if we do this, I’ll want more. I don’t want us to act like it never happened in the morning. I don’t want you to leavefor your bed in the middle of the night. I won’t want just sex; I’ll want you to be mine.”
“Come here.”
I join her on the bed and lean back against the pillows, and she straddles my lap. I look into her eyes as she places her hands on my jaw. I thought I was at her mercy when she was on her knees a few short minutes ago, but now, she holds my heart in her hands.
“Maybe I didn’t say it correctly. Maybe you didn’t understand what I said out there. When I said I want you, I didn’t mean just sex. That’s not what this is for me anymore. I want to take that next step with you. You have somehow broken through every wall I could try to build over the past few months. You make me feel cared for. You’re consistent and strong. You make me feel wanted in a way I’ve never felt before. I don’t want to leave for my bed. I want to stay right here with you. I want to be yours. God, I’m so scared to tell you this, but—” Tears collect in her eyes, and they turn a stormy blue. “I love you, Linc.”
“I need to hear you say it again, Mel.”
“I love you. I want everything with you. I can’t pretend that I’m okay with just being roommates or friends anymore.” Her eyes squeeze shut. “Please tell me I’m not the only one feeling this way.”
I reach up and take her hands in mine and her eyes open. “You’re not the only one, Melonie. Fuck, I’ve loved you for so long. I feel like I’ve been screaming it, and you couldn’t hear me.”
“Well, now I hear you.”
I reach up, pushing her hair behind her ear, sliding my hand to her nape, and bring her lips to mine. I taste her tears in the kiss, and she probably tastes mine. Then I bring my hands down to her breasts. “I want you so bad right now, Melonie. Shit, I need you.”
She sighs, and her hips are already rocking. “I need you inside me. I need to be with you.”
“How can we do this so you’re comfortable?” I’ve never been with a pregnant woman before, and I need her to lead here.
She moves up to her knees and lines up my dick with her entrance. She brings her forehead to mine as she lowers down inch by inch. As she slides down, I realize, this isn’t just sex, this is us coming together, and it feels different from any other experience I’ve ever had.
“Fuck, you feel incredible.” It’s been so long.
Once I’m fully in, she stills for a moment. “God, Linc, you feel huge right now.”
“It’s been over seven months, Mel. I can’t promise this will be a long ride.”
She laughs, and her hips rock faster. She places her hands in mine and straightens her back, and it’s a sight that will live in my mind forever.
I release her hands and cup her breasts, teasing her nipples, watching her face change. I take one of her breasts in my mouth and lower my hand to her clit.
“Oh my god. Oh, fuck.”
