They were breathing heavily as he came up for air, and Kristin pushed him onto his back so she could control how much stress he put onto his hands. Rising slowly, his cock slid almost out of her before she went back down, impaling herself until he was buried to his balls.
“Kristin,” he groaned. “Baby. Put me out of my misery. Fuck. Me.”
His hands gripped her hips, and she rocked over him, feeling her own climax building.
Forcing her to pick up the pace by slamming up and into her over and over, Julian manipulated her movements with his hands, gripping her ass tightly.
“Come for me, love,” Julian commanded. “I’m not going to survive much longer.”
Kristin kept grinding down on him as she felt her body coming apart. She was trembling by the time her climax surged through her body, whimpering and moaning as wave after wave of pleasure assaulted her.
“You look so damn beautiful when you come,” Julian growled, thrusting up harder and harder as he found his own heated release.
She collapsed on top of his body in a messy heap, her body spent.
He wrapped his strong arms around her, holding her, leaving their bodies connected. “I love you, Kristin. I can’t believe you’re finally fucking mine.”
“I don’t think I’ve ever been meant for anybody else,” she told him as she tried to catch her breath. “You’ve always gotten under my skin.”
“Foreplay,” he reminded her in a playful voice.
She kissed his shoulder, noticing the slightly salty taste of his damp body. “We’re a mess.”
Both of them were drenched in sweat, and she could smell the tantalizing scent of hot sex in the air around them.
He held her tighter. “This is us. It’s you and me together.”
She nodded against his shoulder. She understood every time he said those words. They were separate, but stronger together, different together, incredible together.
It didn’t matter what was superficially dissimilar between them. They were two people who were perfect for each other. Julian was that missing part of her that she’d always longed for and had never found.
She was the part of Julian he’d always been restlessly seeking, but never knew it.
“We need a real honeymoon,” he said earnestly. “I want to start making our memories together. We had a wedding you can’t remember. But I’d love to give you a trip you’ll never forget. Can you get off work for a few weeks?”
She smiled against his warm skin. “I don’t think that will be a problem. Sarah’s pregnant, and I can guarantee that Dante is going to be a worrywart. She’s already getting ready to cut her practice back a lot. I was going to look for something else full time.”
“Is that what you want?”
“No. Working with Sarah is special. But there has never been a time in my life since I was a teenager that I didn’t work every day. I feel like I’m on vacation right now because I’m not needed at the bar.”
“I need you,” Julian replied fiercely. “Just keep working with Sarah until she has the baby, then take time off when she does. It’s not like we need the money.”
“I’d have no idea what to do with myself if I was only working part time,” she mused.
“I’ll make sure to keep you busy,” Julian answered wickedly.
Kristin rolled, finally disconnecting their bodies. She eyed Julian as he was sprawled out on the floor completely naked. She could already think of a few ideas. “We need a shower. I can decide what to do about work later.”
He stood and pulled her to her feet. “Take the time off, sweetheart. Please. You deserve to enjoy your life for a change. Spend some time with me. Micah and I are sharing the responsibility of watching out for Xander, and my cousins are helping even though we never asked them. Let’s both learn how to make things other than work our priorities.”
She knew she could never deny that delicious possibility. Since money was no longer an issue, it was entirely possible for her to work part time. “I might get bored,” she warned teasingly.
He slapped her on the ass, but with his hand bandaged, it caused very little sting. “I’ll make it my job to see that you never get tired of being together.”
Like that was a possibility? “I’ll give it a try,” she agreed.
“I can’t believe Dante is going to have a child,” Julian mused. “He’ll be nagging Sarah all the time.”
“It should be interesting because Emily is pregnant, too. So Grady and Dante can freak out together,” Kristin informed him in a mirthful voice. “They’re due only weeks apart.”
“Holy shit! Do they both know?”
“By now they probably do,” Kristin confided. “They were both going to tell their husbands over the weekend. Both of them are really happy.”
“I’m sure Dante and Grady will be happy, too. But I don’t envy them. I’d be worried, too.”
Kristin had no doubt Julian would be just as attentive and overprotective. “You don’t want kids?”
