MERRITT
Being inside Laurel doesn't compare to anything else. Warm, silky, and strong all at the same time. She's tight, and I force myself to take this slow, even though my body is urging me to move. Her pleasure, though, is my focus, and I don't want to hurt her. Better to give her a chance to relax and get used to my size before I chase after the promise of release.
Release. The thought of that jogs some part of my rational brain, and I groan.
"What?" Her question is dazed, dreamy, and I hate to break through that with reality. But it's a must in this case.
"I just realized I don't have any condoms." I should pull out, and an apology is on my lips, but she stops me.
"I'm good. Been on birth control for years." Her eyes meet mine, and I can see the barest of truth in them. "I trust you."
Like those words have broken through the final wall holding me back, I drag my cock back and then thrust in deeper. I made a promise to her earlier and I have every intention of delivering on it. I want to be so deep inside her that she'll never forget this moment. This time.
That she'll never forget me.
She arches up, truly opening up for me, and her ankles lock around my hips. We're tied together, breathing in time as our bodies come together like we were made solely for each other. I want to keep her here, never give her up, but I know this storm will end too soon, and there's a world outside waiting for her.
She moans and wraps me up, this small woman who's so strong, and digs her nails into the skin of my back. I want those marks, proof of what we did, and I follow her direction. Thrusting into her warmth, deeper with every stroke, until her walls grip my cock so tight it's perfection, and her voice breaks saying my name.
Only then do I let go completely, hitting the end of her and filling her fully.
She's shaking in my arms as I roll us over, still joined, her head on my chest. I pull the blanket over us both. It's a natural thing, to care for this woman, and I'm grateful she crashed into my life.
What comes next can wait. For now, this moment is enough.
