screamed her release, never having felt any amount of pleasure like that before in her entire life, even by herself.
Ethan began bucking his hips furiously, finally unable to hold on any longer. He exploded deep inside her, allowing the death grip she had on his erection to milk him dry. He cried out, burying his face in her neck and biting lightly.
When the frenzy had subsided for the both of them, he pulled her with him as he lay back on the mattress, holding her on top of him and loving the feel of her in his arms. After a moment, he rolled her to the side so that he could look down at her. Her eyes were closed, from exhaustion or perhaps embarrassment—he couldn’t be sure, because the loveliest blush he had ever seen was spreading from her cheeks down to her chest.
“Look at me,” he said softly. He traced the features of her face with his fingertips, rubbing his thumb slowly across her full, pouty lips. He leaned down and kissed her softly before pulling back to look deep into her eyes; warm hazel met smoldering jade. “I had a spare key made today. You’re fucking keeping it,” he growled. “And we’re going to meet here, whenever you want. If I’m not here, let yourself in. I should hopefully be along shortly.”
Lily blinked a few times as what he was saying to her sank in. “But when would—how would I know?”
“I’ll be here working most days for a while. Take a chance.”
“But… don’t you even want to know my name?” Lily asked, a slightly bewildered tone in her voice.
“No!” he snapped. “And I’m sure as hell not going to tell you mine.” After a moment his tone softened and he continued. “That’s for everyone else. There’s no place for that here. We’re going to meet here and it’s going to be real—no pretenses. We’re going to say what we want and do as we like.” He leaned down to kiss her lips again before pulling away and smiling. “Putting a name on things only gives it limitations and expectations. I just want your body… and your soul. Your true soul that you hide away from the rest of the world, buried behind your name.”
Lily stared back at him, dumbfounded by his theories. How nice would it be to get away from the rest of the world for a while? Not to worry about dinner or laundry or waiting on her dad and Scott hand and foot. To only worry about pleasing herself for once. The suggestion was extremely tempting.
When she was finally able to speak, she was surprised that it had nothing to do with what she’d just been imagining. “Um… that’s twice now that we didn’t use anything.”
“I realize it’s a bit late, but are you taking anything?”
“Yes, I get the shot. But should I be worried?”
“Well, I can get condoms if you’d like, but as for worrying, there’s no need.” He looked away for a moment and Lily saw a dark cloud pass over his features. “I haven’t been with anyone in over a year, and I’ve been tested in that time.”
“Okay,” she whispered, pulling him down to meet her lips again, wanting nothing more than to make that dark cloud disappear from his face. When they came back up for air, they were both panting harshly and the dark cloud was nowhere in sight.
He moved between her legs again and began to enter her slowly, his earlier madness replaced by a lazy, languorous pace. She welcomed him eagerly, already feeling as if he were right where he should be.
Two hours and countless orgasms later, Lily lay sprawled across his toned chest, drifting off to sleep. She was weak and sated beyond belief.
One last conscious thought went through her mind before she surrendered to the heavy pull of slumber.
This
had definitely been worth it.

Ethan woke slowly, feeling rested for the first time in days. His first thought was gratitude for whatever deity had allowed him to nap without nasty memories swimming through his head, but when he felt the warm body that was draped over him, he remembered exactly which
