The pleasure was mounting. His groaning got closer and closer together and the vibration inside me was close to exploding. His thick length twitched, and I gasped, my head falling back while I let out a dreamy moan. My thighs quivered, and his hips drove in long and hard, the head of his erection as far as it could go. I shook, trembling hard and Kova slowly licked my neck before gently biting it. I was so close to finishing and I could tell he was too. Wrapping one arm around my lower back and the other just below my shoulders, Kova palmed the back of my head and brought my gaze to his.
I knew my look mimicked his. Glossy eyes, flushed cheeks, swollen lips.
My breathing grew heavier and he thrust in at the same pace, drawing out the ecstasy until I couldn't take it anymore. I tried to kiss him, but he pulled the hair at the back of my neck and held my face inches from his as he watched while I breathed into him, my pleasure rising to the top. My nails dug into his neck, lips parted as I felt myself exploding. I let out a passionate sigh and squeezed my inner walls, trying to wait for him, but I didn't need to.
Kova was coming with me.
His hands gripped my heated skin as he released his orgasm inside me, moaning in Russian. The pleasure was too much and I was shaking so bad from the sheer complexity of this moment. This was more than just sex for us. I knew it was.
Kova wrapped his arms around me tighter as our mouths collided and we lost ourselves in pure abandon together.
As the pinnacle of our release slowed down, Kova broke the kiss and looked into my eyes. He brushed back the hair that was matted to my cheek from the heat we had created, then carefully laid me back down while he was still inside me.
He wasn't ready to let go, and neither was I.
He pushed in one last time, and I gasped. Kova kissed me again before pulling out, and I felt the warmth of his orgasm seep from me. I immediately missed him, and I let it show.
Much to my surprise, he didn't get up just yet. He rolled to the side and took me with him. I rested my head on his bicep and looked up at him, one of his thighs pressed between mine. Kova fingered my auburn hair, playing with it.
"I wish you could stay," I said honestly. I knew he'd have to leave soon.
"I do too."
His eyes penetrated my composure and I shifted closer to him. Kova wrapped an arm around me and pressed a kiss to my forehead, holding me for a long moment until I was close to falling asleep from the way his fingers grazed my back so gently.
Eventually he withdrew, and I watched as he picked up his clothes and put them on. His face was tight and I could tell he still had so much on his mind.
Soft and quiet, he buckled his belt and said, "I do not like that she put her hands on you again. It sounds like she is out for vengeance, Ria, but I do not know why and that worries me."
But I did. I knew it had something to do with my dad, I just didn't know the details surrounding it.
"I'll be okay."
"I know you will, you are strong, but I still worry for you."
A soft smile pulled at my lips. Kova walked over to me and I went to sit up, but he stopped me. "Do not get up, I will lock the bottom lock when I leave." I nodded, and he pulled the blanket up to my chest and quietly took me in. There was longing in his eyes, like once he left he'd never see me again. My brows pulled together and my heart dropped.
Leaning down, he gently kissed my forehead, then pressed his lips to mine. My hand cupped the back of his head as he kissed me like he was saying goodbye forever, a thought that terrified me.
Kova pulled back and I licked my lips.
"By the way, I would find you anywhere." I tilted my head to the side in confusion. "You said you are going to move so I cannot show up whenever I wanted. Ria, I will always find you. You have a part of me that no one has ever had, as I do with you."
Then he was gone.
Chapter Sixty
Despite the odds, I walked into World Cup the following morning feeling a little recharged.
I fell asleep shortly after Kova left with a lot still on my mind, though I slept soundlessly, even if it was only for a couple of hours. That's what exhaustion did to me. On days when my body just couldn’t take another minute, it fell into a deep slumber and I slept like the dead. Everything was put on hold and that's it. I wish sleep always happened like that. Most days I tossed and turned in bed no matter how tired I was.
I sighed. I still needed to call and get the results of my blood work. I'd missed the doctor's office call three times now due to training, and because I had forgotten to call back. It slipped my mind and I assumed them calling meant they found the reason behind my low vitamin levels. I prayed they had a better alternative to the damn shots they had prescribed. I wasn't sure how much more I could take of those.
Speaking of shots, I'd have to ask Hayden to give me another injection soon.
I'd gotten to practice early to see how Kova was doing. With the way he was last night, I was worried about him. Something wasn't sitting well with me and I had this gut feeling he was trying to tell me something more. We never had sex like that. Kova never showed his emotions, because it made him vulnerable, and he never allowed himself to be exposed. But last night he had, and I wanted to understand why. More than that, I wanted him to tell me what was on his mind yesterday. I planned to leave our notebook in his desk at some point, so he could write down his thoughts.
Though we both expressed ourselves through touch last night and kissed our pain away,
