Chapter Thirty-Nine
Eve
“Carter…” I gasp when I find him still in my bed. “You were fired?”
He gives me a small smile. “No. I quit.”
“What? Why?” I’m stunned.
Carter draws me down to sit on the bed beside him. His hands land on my waist, his gaze intense as he explains.
“It had to happen sometime. When you had a run-in with your friend Vi, I realized that the time for me to resign was near.” He reaches up and cups my jaw. “It’s fine. Really.”
I have no words, so I give his shoulder disgruntled shove.
“It is not fine!” I screech. “What have you done?”
“Nothing that I can’t recover from.”
“You’re crazy. You know that?”
Carter shrugs. “Crazy about you. I would rather have you than anyone else. Besides, it’s done now. There’s no use arguing about it.”
“You’re way too calm about this whole thing.”
A dimple flashes in his cheek as he smirks. “I think you should come back to bed with me.”
“Carter!” His tone gets me all flustered. “As if coming back to bed and kissing you will get your job back…”
He draws back the blanks and I see that he’s still completely nude. Not only that, but his cock is erect. Instant electricity crackles between us, almost strong enough to touch. His hands dig into my hips. Damn him. My pussy grows damp at the mere thought of his big cock stretching me out and filling me completely..
“You could do more than kiss, if you wanted,” Carter whispers, his voice thick with lust. “Just saying…”
“Yeah,” I agree playfully, licking my top lip. “I could take off someone’s clothes. Run my hands over their bare skin. Take their cock into my mouth…”
“You’re killing me,” he hisses.
I smirk, but keep going.
“If I really wanted to, I could straddle them. Slide their cock deep inside my quivering pussy until I was writhing and coming all over their hard cock. That would be so nice, don’t you think?”
His eyes dilate with desire and I can feel his cock nudging my leg, throbbing hotly and twitching with anticipation.
“You’re trying to kill me, aren’t you?”
“It’s okay,” I whisper, with a soft laugh. “I’m going to be a doctor, remember?”
“I don’t think the kind of doctor I need has a degree,” he winks.
“No?” I ask. “Do you need the kind that makes home visits?”
He groans as I reach down and grip his cock. And then, he bends down and swoops me up into his strong arms.
“What are you doing?” I squeal.
“Anything I want to,” he says. “We can both play that game, don’t you remember?”
“How could I forget?” I ask, with a smile.
Carter’s love fills me with warmth. His presence in my life is invaluable and now that I have him by my side, I don’t want to know how it feels without him. With everything working out so well, I’m not worried about our families anymore. My father will have to get used to the fact that his child has become an adult. And that’s that.
“There’s nothing else standing in our way now,” I say.
His kiss is everything I need, everything I want, everything I have ever wanted without even knowing. It’s gentle and loving and tender, and yet still filled with deep passion that creates an unbreakable bond between us.
Even when I’m not in the same room with Carter, I feel this bond. It’s like he’s in my heart at all times now, like a part of him lives there and a part of me lives in his heart.
The sacredness of it all overwhelms with emotion. When he lays me on the bed, I’m overcome with love for him, for my life, for the possibilities that now exist in our future together.
I never expected such fulfillment and happiness would be mine.
But here it is, real and thriving and pulsing with life and heat, right there in my arms.
When he carries me into his bedroom and we shed our clothes, making love with wild abandon, our bare skin sliding sensuously and hungrily together, his kisses show me that he feels exactly the same way about me that I feel about him.
It feels pure.
It feels right.
It feels like forever.
“I love you, Eve,” he says, kissing my eyelids, my cheeks, my chin, my neck. His sweet gentle kisses seem to be everywhere all at once. And then the rest of him, his mouth, his hands, his voice, all filling my head with Carter’s deep affection and love for me.
“I love you, too, Carter,” I say. “I’ll love you forever and ever.”
He kisses me again, smiling down at me.
“And ever and ever…”
I lay back, letting him devour me as long as he likes, giving myself to him in the most loving and sacred way possible. Moments later, when I’m writhing beneath him, my body rolling in pleasure and drowning in love, I know I’ll spend the rest of my life trying to make him feel exactly the same way that I do in that moment.
