I can’t remember a time when I wanted something as much as I want his hands on me right this second.
Carter is mine.
I’m his.
Shivers rush over my skin at the thought that we’re finally together.
He reaches for my face and brushes his fingers down my cheek.
I let my eyes drink in his features, his dark lashes and those deep brown eyes that never miss a thing. My eyes keep trailing down his face to his straight nose and then they land on his full lips.
I lift my hand to his face and brush the tips of my fingers over his skin, just enjoying the feel of him.
I stand on my toes at the same moment that he leans down, and our mouths find each other’s. At first, the kiss is slow, but then our tongues meet, and I can’t help but moan in delight.
Carter thrusts his tongue deeper and he takes a step closer, crushing our bodies together.
Sparks shoot through me and go straight to my abdomen. Damn, he tastes so good. How have I lived without him the past four years?
He makes me burn up until
all that remains of me are smoldering ashes. I press my breasts harder against his chest wanting to feel more of him.
I feel his erection pressing into my lower belly and the thought of him being so close to me is a heady one.
He devours me with wild and hungry kisses until our breaths are racing into each other.
I love the look on his face. It’s one of pure adoration and lust. I could get addicted to it.
***
CARTER
I pull her right against me and soak in the pure pleasure of feeling her naked body pressing against mine before I push her back to where the bed is.
I follow her onto the bed kissing her hungrily, like the starving man I am. I want to lose myself in her. I kiss her with every ounce of love I have in my heart.
Finally, Della’s naked under me again. It’s nothing short of a miracle that’s kept me from fucking her sooner. I needed to win her trust first before taking our relationship to the next level. It’s been the longest month of my life.
I pull slightly away from her and look down at her lust filled eyes. I need to drink in every inch of her.
My heart feels light for the first time. I feel relieved and at peace. I have my daughter and the woman I love. Damn, I’m a lucky man.
Right now, I just want to lose myself in Della. Her long, silky brown hair is spread over the cover. Her cheeks are flushed with desire.
Once again, a fierce protectiveness fills my chest to the point where it feels like I might explode. We belong together. I knew it the first time I laid eyes on her. She was mine that day. She’ll be mine for all eternity.
I close the distance between us and trail gentle kisses over her skin.
“Carter,” she sighs blissfully.
Fuck, I can listen to her saying my name all night long. She makes it sound like a prayer.
I’m so hard for her. My cock throbs against her stomach. Once I’m inside of her, it will only take a matter of seconds for me. It’s been too long.
I’ll make it up to her right through the night, but right now I have no control. I can’t hold myself back anymore.
I close my mouth over her breast and groan at the taste of her skin. She still tastes like crushed apples. I take my time licking and sucking until she starts to roll her hips against me.
