“Oh yeah, what’s that?” Her eyes sparkled with a fire that he knew could burn his soul, and he didn’t care anymore. There was no doubt in his mind that he was in love with her. He couldn’t stop it as hard as he’d fought it. Giving her a smirk, he grabbed her by the waist, and Maeve squealed as he effortlessly picked her up and settled her on his face.
“Holy shit,” she gasped as his tongue dipped into her folds.
He’d positioned her, so her knees were settled on either side of his face. Wolf gripped her thighs to hold her steady as her pussy hovered before his eyes. Whatever happened from this moment on between them, he knew that his life would never be the same after having her in it.
Maeve could barely catch her breath. She leaned her hands against the wall as she moaned. His tongue was like the rest of him, mysterious and magical. Not too long ago, she would’ve argued that it was impossible for her to find pleasure of this magnitude without the darkness dancing around inside her mind.
Without those shadows of her past trying to drive her to keep at it until she was raw and couldn’t stand it, the experience was so different. The shadows lied. They told her it was the only way to make them quiet, but that was because those memories liked to keep her scared. She was scared no longer, and Wolf had pushed her to see that she didn’t need to be.
There were no more dark memory strands with him trying to grip her mind and control her actions. Even with the desire that was coursing through her body, she kept going. It was so strong that she was in fear of passing out.
He made a sound like a growl and the vibration had her grinding her pussy down harder onto his face. Wolf took the opportunity to latch onto her clit, trapping her in place as he sucked hard.
“Oh fuck!”
She leaned her body onto the cool wall, her cheek pressing harder into the unyielding surface with each passing second. The tips of her nipples pressed into the wall and made her jerk. It was a sweet combination of cold and hot tantalizing her sensitive skin. The same combination of emotion soared through her body, making her yelp as she silently begged for more by practically humping his face. The orgasm was right there in her grasp, she could feel it building, and she was hurtling toward the finish line when Wolf stopped.
He picked her up and laid her down on the couch in another impressive feat of strength.
“You taste so sweet,” he said, his voice dark, rough, and a little out of control.
She’d never seen him out of control, but as he licked her juices off his lips and stood, a shiver raced down her spine and made her tremble.
“I play for keeps, Maeve,” he said as he proceeded to lick and suck on his fingers. It was the single sexiest thing she’d ever seen. Her brain was misfiring on a whole new level. “I don’t do the one-night stands, and I’m not into games.”
She nodded furiously in agreement as he hooked his thumbs into the waistband of his track pants. The very large cock that was underneath was tenting out the fabric and making her mouth drool.
“Look at me,” Wolf said, his tone as serious as the day they’d met. She couldn’t have disobeyed even if she tried. “Do you understand what that means?”
She opened her mouth, and her tongue ran across her lips, but she was unable to form a coherent sentence. His eyes screamed how much he wanted her, yet his ability to have this much control was a massive turn-on. The dim light partially shaded his face, making him seem even more intense. He continued to explain when she only stared and didn’t say anything.
“It means I’m not just going to have sex with you. I’m going to make sure you know from this moment on you’re mine, Walela. For me, that means a life together, kids, and a real family. I won’t compromise on those things. If you have a problem with it, then say so now. Otherwise, I’m going to make love to you until you can’t walk straight. I’m going to make sure you only ever want to scream my name and that it’s my face you dream about.”
She shuddered as he drew the track pants down enough that she could see the bottom of the perfectly tapered V lining his abdomen.
“And then I’m going to keep doing those two things until you’re pregnant because I can’t think of a single sexier thing than to see you carrying our child. I can’t wait to watch you learn how much of an amazing mom you’ll be.”
Her mouth fell open. She’d never contemplated the idea of kids, yet an electrical charge thrummed through her body with the thought. Maeve’s hand dropped to her stomach, and an image of her pregnant with this man’s child and what that life would look like crossed her mind. She expected to feel fear or to balk at the idea considering her own childhood, but there was none of that. All she felt was excitement to start a real future—one she genuinely wanted, and she realized there was no other man that could make her feel like this. Her eyes flicked back up to Wolf as he stood patiently waiting for her answer.
“I want all of that,” she managed to get out.
She was rewarded by him pushing the material of the track pants over the cock that was as sexy as the man himself. He stepped out of the pants, and his hand stroked the cock that she saw fully for the first time.
Maeve swallowed hard as she took in the full length and thickness, her eyes transfixed to his hand, slowly traveling the thick shaft, and knew that even without the ‘falling in love with him’ part, she would have gotten down on her knees and begged for a taste. She was not ashamed to admit that she wanted him to pummel her until she passed out and then do it all over again.
She couldn’t stop staring at him, and her greedy eyes traveled from his face to his shoulders and down to his cock as he kneeled on the couch between her legs. The muscles in her legs were quivering, and she couldn’t have said if it was due to what had already happened between them or the anticipation of him taking her.
Leaning over her, he braced himself on his arm by her head. Even though he hadn’t touched her yet, she could feel his body like a caress. Wolf’s hair hung around his face, which shadowed the look he was giving her, but she could feel the intensity of his gaze even if she were blind. Her heart pounded harder, her chest rising and falling so quickly that she felt like she’d been sprinting.
“I never thought I’d find love,” he said, and unable to help herself, she raised her hands to feel his heated skin and the hard muscles underneath. “But, somewhere along this crazy road we’ve been on together, I’ve fallen completely in love with you, Maeve. With you, my world feels complete.”
She sucked in a ragged breath as tears threatened to spill from her eyes. She’d never known the feeling of being so happy that you cried, but she did now as she blinked her tears back.
“I love you too, Wolf. I have for a while now. Love is not something I thought I’d be worthy of after everything I’ve done, who I was—” Wolf dropped his head and kissed her, wiping away the rest of her thought.
She moaned and gripped his shoulders, her fingers pressing into his skin. He slowly pulled back but nibbled on her lower lip before leaving a lingering kiss on her lips.
“Who you were, is not who you are. You reminded me of this, so you’re no longer going to think or talk about yourself like you’re damaged.”
