I hold my breath as
each thrust pushes me closer to the edge. Lucian kisses my neck and
his body passes the threshold of gentle for a few quick seconds. I
cry out, my nails digging into his back as the world dissolves around
us and all I see is everything we could be together. It's an orgasm
on both a physical and emotional level, something I've never
experienced before.

He presses deeply
into me, giving a few shallow thrusts. I can feel his dick swelling
and twitching and spilling into me. It makes me want to hold him even
tighter against me, but I don't think that's possible. We're so
connected that there's no space between us. My hips are bucked up to
meet him, drinking everything in. I can feel his rapid heartbeat
pounding against my chest. It's amazing. Incredible. Unbelievable. I
don't ever want it to end. Not ever.

I lick my lips and
then kiss his face, holding it in my hands, making sure I don't miss
an inch of skin. His forehead, his cheeks, his eyes, his chin. The
small bit of stubble feels funny against my mouth, but I don't mind
much. This is me taking in all of him.

When I'm done, he
gives me a quick peck on the lips before rolling off of me. We lay
there together for several moments, just breathing and staring up at
the ceiling. There's a giddy feeling swirling inside of me that's
pushing at the surface. Even though we just had sex, I feel like I
have enough energy to run around the world. I want to get up and jump
up and down and whoop as if I've just conquered the greatest feat
ever. Maybe I have, because I think I might have conquered Lucian
Reddick's heart. At least, I hope I did.

With my breathing
finally calm, I roll over to cuddle Lucian. Almost the second that I
do, he sits up to get out of bed. My heart sinks so hard that I think
it might have left my body. This is his classic after sex
dismissiveness. The happy tears that were streaming down my face only
moments ago turn to sorrow and shame. He's about to kick me out.

I draw my legs up to
my chest and hug them, watching him, waiting for him to get dressed
and tell me to leave. He doesn't put his pants back on, but he does
head toward the door, not even bothering to look back at me.


Lucian,”
I call to him before he has a chance to disappear.


Yeah?”
He turns back to me.


Where
are you going?” I absolutely loathe how pathetic I sound. Right
now though, I feel about as fragile as a thin piece of porcelain
being handled by a rowdy child.


I'm
going to get us some water. I don't know about you, but I'm thirsty.”
He wipes a thin sheen of sweat from his brow.


Oh.”
I cower a bit, though I don't know why. This doesn't mean he's not
going to kick me out immediately after we're hydrated.

Perhaps he sees the
concerned look on my face because he walks back into the room and
sits beside me, reaching a hand out to rub my back. “Are you
alright?”


Yeah.”
My face sinks behind my arms. “No,” I admit.


What's
wrong?”


Would
you like for me to leave? After we drink our water, of course.”
I do my best not to sound pitiful, but it doesn't work too well.

His head cocks back
a bit. “No. What would make you think that?”


Never
mind.”

Lucian places his
hand on me knee. “I'm going to go get us some water, and then
we're going to take a shower.”


Together?”


Yes.
Together.” He grins, brushing a strand of hair away from my
eyes. “And then I'm going to hold you hostage all night. You're
going to fall asleep in my bed and wake up in my arms.”


Really?”
My mood perks up from his romantic words.


Really.”
He kisses me on the forehead before standing. “I'm parched.
I'll be right back.”


Alright.”
My body relaxes as I watch him go, my legs flattening out on the bed.

Maybe things will
work out for us after all.
