Claiming his mouth again, I slipped my fingers beneath the waistband of his pants and slid them down. When his cock bounced free, I palmed him, feeling my own arousal grow upon hearing every one of his whimpers.

It wasn’t just the physical need driving me, though. It was him—all of him.

Everything about him mesmerized me: his warmth, his taste, and the soft moans escaping his lips. But more importantly, it was his heart that truly captivated me. His kindness was displayed in everything he did.

That night, I wasn’t going to fuck Caden.

I was going to make love to him.

After taking off his clothes, I took my time prepping him, sucking him as I played with his ass with lube coated fingers.

His hands tangled in my hair, and he thrust upward into my mouth, whimpering as he inched closer to ecstasy.

And damn, I wanted him to come, but not yet.

Easing up the pressure of my mouth, I worked my pants off and started stroking myself. Caden was already so close, and I knew it wouldn’t take many thrusts to send him over the edge, an edge I wanted to topple over with him.

When I withdrew my fingers from him, he whined. “God, Jack. Don’t stop.” But then he gave me a lopsided grin. “You’re killin’ me here.”

I grabbed a condom from the top drawer and tore the wrapper open with my teeth before rolling it down my shaft. Before I could reach for the lube, Caden handed it to me. I chuckled at his eager expression and the way he wiggled his hips.

After drizzling some on his ass, I did the same to my dick before placing myself at his entrance. Slowly pushing into him, I clenched my jaw. His tightness and heat caused me to shudder.

With a groan, he threw his head back and raised his hips. The action made me sink more into him, and we both moaned. Once his body no longer fought me, I was able to move a little faster. But I knew how he preferred it: slow and tender.

We hadn’t had sex that way in this new reality, and I wondered if anyone had ever treated him with that much care before. Maybe he didn’t know how incredible it could feel yet.

As he attempted to speed it up, I gripped his hips and held him still. A retort was on his lips, but before he could voice it, I thrust into him again, going even deeper.

He gasped and kept his mouth open in a small O.

It was insanely sexy, and I drove my hips forward again, rocking into his tight heat. With each thrust, soft moans left him.

I cupped his cheek with one hand as I continued driving myself into him, staring into his expressive eyes and feeling a part of my heart shatter.

His fingers dug into my sides as I gave him shallow thrusts, followed by slower, deeper ones. I knew he was close by how his body began to tense, so I moved my hand from his cheek to his dick, stroking him in the same rhythm as my thrusts.

“Come for me, Cay,” I said before quickening my pace just a little.

As he came apart beneath me, tears sprang to my eyes. My love for him nearly crippled me in that moment. And knowing I could lose him in just an hour caused the tears to fall.

He shouted his pleasure and trembled around me.

Leaning forward, I rested my forehead against his and continued driving into him, chasing my own high. He grabbed my ass and tugged me harder.

Warmth shot down my spine and into my groin, and my balls tightened. Gliding in and out of his body, I couldn’t hold back anymore, and I groaned as my orgasm slammed into me.

Pleasure like I’d never before experienced left me in waves, and I collapsed on top of Caden, trying to catch my breath.

He rubbed my back and rose up to place kisses along my jawline. It was intimate and earth-shattering.

“I love you, Caden.” The words had slipped out before I could stop them, but once they were released, I was glad. When he stilled, I looked down into his confused face and gently took hold of his chin. “I do. I fucking love you, Cay.”

In my head, I imagined how it would go. Caden would smile and confess his love for me, too, and then we’d be transported back to our old life. Everything would work out, and it’d be a Christmas miracle. I’d spend the rest of my existence loving him and showing him every single day that he was the most important part of my life.

However… that’s not what happened.

“I have to go.”
