Chapter 278

• His body moves slowly against mine. That furious arousal in me heightens and hitches. He devours my mouth and then my neck and back again. His tongue caresses mine, helping me get lost in pleasure as his body slowly slides with mine. I wriggle a hand free and once again find him hard and ready. I maneuver myself and use my grip on him to find our way together, lifting my hips, sliding him into me very slowly, pensively, waiting for him to halt all of this and hold my breath. He tenses and pauses as his kiss stops for a mere second.
• Stay with me, Jake, don’t give up on us, please.
• He exhales and screws his eyes closed tight. Our bodies adjust to the sensation of being joined again, my body stretching as he inches slowly inside of me. We’re fully connected, yet neither of us is moving. Jake lifts himself over me, using his hand by my wrist to steady his weight, and catches my free hand returning it to the same position beside the other. I let out a slow sigh of relief. Him holding me down and gazing directly into my eyes is a sure sign that he isn’t going to try to stop this.
