But I reame I could see the moment she felt it, too, because her lips parted in this elated s her spine to press my cock harder into her skin

I was close, could feel the ache behind my naval build and spin doard until I ild--one hand braced beside her head while I fucked earnestly, hips pivoting faster and harder over her until the growling sound I heard washer how hard I was going to come and where

Her neck

Her tits

Her chin and botto , I slid down her body, sher hip, her thigh, and finally the sweetness just between her legs Her hands found their way intoas I sucked and licked at her, knowing how tohow to make the hoarse cries tear fro up at her eyes closed in relief, her upper lip glistening with sweat

I rose tofro her I’d seen her naked in every conceivable way--spread wide beneathfor more pleasure or less pain, absorbed in my touch and oblivious toso inti the only one who could ever touch her, ould ever know each of those quieter ive birth to our child or bend and shave her legs in the bath No one else would ever see her sleeping, curled around a pillow in our bed or nursing our daughter at four in theher come apart under ive her what I gave her For Sara, nothing turned her onadoration

Every second that I loved her--a love story for the ages condensed into not even two years--coalesced into this single fucking touch My hand slowed, fingers carefully pulling from her as I bent and covered her body with ain, and pushed into her, wanting to be inside when she cos wound around my hips, hands slid down ht intome she was close, to move faster, to suck her, harder, and harder

She was sticky with asm and her milk, with sweat and scotch Pleasure built brick by brick until it tripped that feeling that was too intense to simply be called pleasure anyood it was I kissed her one rowl and the tiny press of teeth beforeher in a flurry of thrusts, ainst her, the tension inwith a sharp groan Beneathcries that broke with very rhyth around rating ainst her sensitive skin so she shuddered at the friction I began to pull back but she stoppeddown ht my breath in the soft space beside her neck, halfheartedly working to keep htly up and down ht?"

I would have been all right if it had gone that way, if the secret we had and shared had faded away and we had to learn to find our intio back to that, and anytiuilty and dark inside

"What are you thinking?" she asked, as she always did, right when I wanted to ad rather dickish"

"Ooh, then you have to tell me"

I turned to her, took her hand in both ofthat I’one away, I would have been okay, but I think I would have been a bit devastated at first, too I can share you with any nu as there is a piece there that remains only mine"

"There’sbetween us that we take care of, knowing that soain"

"If you want more kids, you knoe can’t stay in Manhattan forever," I told her

She put her fingers over , "Shh Let’s enjoy this new baseline for a bit"

We both straightened, seeo off the entire time we’d been at the club
