“Yes,” I say. “Gods, yes.”

He shifts, guiding himself to my entrance with a hand that trembles only slightly.

Stretching me open like it’s the first time.

And maybe it is.

His laugh is a scrape of joy against my skin.

“I was gonna say—like coming home.”

And gods help me, I break.

His rhythm shifts—deeper now, more deliberate. He braces one hand beside my head and the other spreads low across my belly like he’s holding something precious.

“Can I—?” he starts.
