We stagger through the front door to my home, giggling wildly as if we’re wasted. Truth be told, we haven’t drunk a damn thing all night long. We’re just high and excitable on life. Flying on the wonderful giddying emotions that we’ve been through on our very first official date. Who would have ever thought that.

“Thank you for taking me out tonight,” I gasp out once we reach my kitchen. “That was so much fun.”

“It was, wasn’t it? Aside from when you dropped half of your pizza on the floor.”

I toss my head back and laugh loudly. “I didn’t do that on purpose, you know! It was an accident.”

“Yeah, I know your theory. It was the waiter’s fault for giving it to you on such a small plate.”

“It was his fault and you know it. That plate was too tiny for words. Plus, the knife was ridiculous…”

“Maybe it’s a good job I didn’t take you out ten years ago. Those table manners.”

“Oh, shut up you.” I pinch his side playfully. “You loved me ten years ago. No amount of bad table manners would have put you off and you know it.” I smile coyly. “And it hasn’t now either.”

“No, you’re right. I agree with you on that one. It’s too late for me now. I’m all in.”

Jayden curls his arm around me and he yanks me to him. I fall willingly, feeling desperate to be by his side. The whole night has left me in a deep bubble of desire. Being in such a date-like intimate atmosphere with the man that I love, just when things are finally looking up, was like the most intense foreplay ever. Now I know exactly what I want. I’m hungry for him and judging by the hooded dark desire in his gaze, he feels the same.

“The date was good, wasn’t it?” he growls, filled with lust. “I had an awesome time.”

“Me too and I have the bracelet now as a permanent reminder of our awesome night.” I jangle it at him. “I won’t ever be able to forget it.” I mold harder into him. “Hopefully, I get to keep you as well.”

His hands cup my cheeks and he stares deeply into my eyes. “You will never have to be without me because I am going to marry you one day. I know you can’t right now, but one day you’ll be my wife.”

A rush of emotions shoots through me like a tornado. “You mean it? You really want that?”

“This isn’t my proposal, I’ll make that so much better than this. I’m just telling you, that’s all.”

“Oh wow.” I rise up onto my tiptoes and brush my nose lightly against his. “Well, just know that I will say yes. It doesn’t matter how or when you ask, I already know that I want to be your wife.”

We both know that I’ll need my divorce to go through first, I have to cut legal ties with Bryan forever, but if the trial goes in the way that we want it to, that will be easy. No judge will keep me married to him when they find out what he’s like. I don’t even want anything from him, he can keep his blood money for all I care just as long as it isn’t enough for him to buy his way out of jail. I just want to be properly rid of him.

Jayden rids my brain of any thoughts of my ex by sweeping me up in a kiss. He crashes his lips into mine and he darts his tongue between my lips, circling mine with his. I’m flooded with the familiar intense chemistry that consumes me every time I’m with Jayden. He’s nothing like Bryan, I actually want to be with him.

A heat pools between my legs as Jayden lifts me upwards and perches me on the edge of the dining table. He presses between my legs so I can feel his thick hard length and immediately my blood boils hotter. He has a vibration sensation running through my system which only gets worse as he scoops his hands under my butt and he lifts the dress up over my head. It flies from my body and drops to the ground in a heap.

“God, you look good in that underwear,” he grunts as he tugs his own shirt off. I grab it and rip too because it isn’t leaving his body fast enough. Buttons get free and fly around the room, but Jayden doesn’t seem to care.

“Talk about looking good…” I run my eyes appreciatively up and down him. “You are incredible.”

I press my hand on his stomach, just as he reaches around to unhook my bra. With wide impressed eyes, Jayden leans in and he kisses all over my exposed throat and collar bone. I let my head loll to one side as he nips and licks, kisses and sucks, all the way down to my breasts. He takes my nipple in his mouth and he sucks on my nub until I’m crying out in sheer ecstasy. I run my fingers through his hair, fixing him in place while he devours me with his mouth. He sucks and tugs, moving to my other breast flooding me with sensations.

“Oh, fuck, Jayden,” I cry out in bliss. “That feels amazing. Oh my God.”

His fingers hook around the waist band of my panties and he tugs hard, never letting go of my nipple the entire time. I arch my back and roll my hips enough not allowing him just yet to get them off. Once I crash back down onto the table I let out a little squeal because it’s so cold, but it isn’t enough to cool down the heat consuming me.

This is right, this has always felt so right, this is where I’m supposed to be.

I tilt my head back and moan as the kisses travel down from my breasts, over my stomach and towards my hips, falling to the hard kitchen floor on his knees with a thump. His lips brush all over me and I sparkle everywhere. It’s as if someone has thrown a tub of glitter at me and it’s pricking all over my skin, leaving me in a heady, sexy rush. The further down Jayden gets, the more my body cries out for him, the more intense the throbbing in my core becomes. I can hardly stand it anymore.

He wants to marry me, I remind myself as the bliss threatens to swallow me up. He wants me to be his wife.

By the time his mouth presses against the cotton of my underwear my needy core can hardly take it any longer. I want him so badly it hurts. I enjoy the scratch of his hard finger edges and he slides my panties down. Every millimeter of my skin is so hypersensitive that everything he does feels great. He grips my legs, sensing how wild this is sending me and he gives me the cheekiest smile ever as he moves his head between my thighs.

“Oh God,” I groan, tossing my head back as he blows out a hot breath over me. My fingers curl so tightly around the table to fix me in place my knuckles turn white. “Stop teasing me already.”

Thankfully he doesn’t need asking twice. He soaks me in an onslaught of pleasure as his tongue explores all of me. It traces up and down my slit, taking the time to plunge deep inside to massage my insides, then slowly out again to circle the most incredible patterns ever over my clit. He repeats the patterns endlessly, keeping up a steady rhythm, but still I can’t keep up with what he’s doing because my head spins wildly. I’m losing control. My brain is half consumed by stars, I can’t focus on anything but the deep pull between us.

“Jayden,” I cry out his name as the pressure of bliss slowly builds. “Oh, Jayden. Jayden.”

I tangle my fingers up in his hair as I repeat his name over and over again while slightly edging my butt until I’m hanging over the edge. I need this amazing man to have access to all of me because he’s sending me flying. I tug at his head, needing him away before it all gets too much, then I yank him back to me once more. Much as it’s overwhelming and almost tipping me over the edge, I don’t want the hot relentless pleasure to end.

“Oh fuck.” The expletive flies out as I reach the tipping point. I thought it was coming for me slowly but then it hit me unexpectedly, knocking me sideways. The pleasure explodes, it floods out of me and Jayden keeps sucking and licking me the entire time as I shudder through the gorgeous orgasm. He drains me, he zaps absolutely everything from me, and it feels phenomenal as he does. “Oh God, Jayden, that was… oh wow.”

But he doesn’t intend to give me time to get my head in order. He’s on his feet again and kissing me hard, cupping my cheeks as he does. His tip nudges my entrance and I spread my thighs even wider to let him in. I might have felt drained only a split second ago but with him right there, I’m begging for more. My body is back on high alert wanting that incredible sensation of him buried deep inside of me.

“I love you, Savannah,” he mutters while gently sliding himself in. “You have no idea.”

“I love you too.” I push my breasts against him, wanting to feel every inch of his skin while he’s inside of me. “And I can’t wait until you’re mine. Officially mine.”

His head buries into my neck. “Babe, you have no idea. I have always belonged to you.”

With that everything intensifies. Jayden thrusts hard and fast and I have to cling to the table, then him, just to stop myself from falling. Every single stroke brushes past my clit until I’m flying higher than air all over again. My walls clamp around him coaxing the orgasm from him too, so this time when we both shudder and collapse into the abyss of pleasure, it’s at the same time. While swimming in the pool of pleasure we grab on to each other, needily and desperately, refusing to let go of one another. I don’t want the wonderful moment to end.

Thankfully, this time there is a light at the end of the tunnel and we might not have to be apart.

“Oh God.” Jayden slumps forward, as drained as I am. “You are incredible.”

He scoops me up into his arms and carries me as if I weigh nothing to my bed. I flop back in his clutch, trusting him with every inch of my body weight. I know with Jayden I can trust him with all of me, I know that he’ll take care of me, and that the second time I get married to the man that I have chosen, it will be the one that lasts.

“You are so beautiful,” he comments while pulling the sheets up around both of us. “I really am so lucky.”

“What are you on about?” I giggle and throw my arms around his neck. “I’m the one who gets to be with a super hero. I know that we’re going to keep it more on the down low for a while to allow Peter to get adjusted but I know he’ll be happy when he finds out too. He likes you so much.”

“Well, I love you both. You’re both amazing. I can’t wait until we’re a family for real.”

It will be the first time that I have ever truly felt part of a family, it will be one that’s just for me and I can’t wait for it to happen.

Soon.

I just have to be patient for a little while longer.
