“Look at me, Lola.”
She obeyed and her gaze was snared by the intensity in his. He hid nothing from her, and she could see the same hope, love and need burning in his gaze that she felt. Her breath caught, emotion exploding through her, twisting with her lust to become something more powerful than she’d ever experienced before. And she let him see it on her face, hid nothing, gave him what he’d given her. It was perfect.
His chest heaved as he sucked in air, and sweat slipped down their skin in rivulets. Climax beckoned, making her limbs quiver. Still, they didn’t look away from each other, riding out the firestorm together. His cock filled her again and again, the angle just right to make her scream. He reached between them, flicking his finger over her clit in time with his thrusts, and she catapulted into orgasm. Her inner muscles contracted around his dick, milking the length of him. Her back bowed on the desk, a broken cry spilling from her lips.
Lust flushed his face, tightening the skin over his sharp cheekbones. His rhythm grew less smooth as he rode her against the desktop, his cock powering into her. One, two, three more times and then he froze, shuddering as he came. “Lola!”
A protracted moment stretched between them while they watched each other come. The lash of need, the rush of orgasm—she could see it all on his face, knew he saw the same on hers. They were in this together, just the way they should be.
He let her legs loose and she propped her feet on the edge of the desk. Leaning heavily on his elbows, he rested his forehead between her breasts, panting for breath. She cupped her hands around the back of his skull, her fingers in his sweat-dampened hair. After long minutes had passed, he lifted his head to look at her, a quiet smile on his face. “I love you.”
“I love you too.” She grinned, even as happy tears filled her eyes. “We’ll make this work, I promise.”
The sound he made was rough, and he pulled her close. “I promise, too.”
What more could she ask for? Not one damn thing. She might not know what the future held for them, but she was smart enough to hang on tight and enjoy the ride. With any luck, they’d keep this thing running for a long, long time. Forever, if she had her way.
