Hearing the door close I look up to see him walking towards me in just his jeans and I’ll admit my fiancé looks damn good shirtless. He’s bare chested, sporting his very muscular body and very sexy six pack. The delicious V leads to my special place-a place that gives me immense pleasure and joy.
I feel the warm washcloth against me and feel his hand lightly touching my thigh. I’m shaking, arching my back, and he’s barely touching me.
“You smell so good,” he tells me, pressing his face between my thighs and slowly licking me.
My fists clench the sheets as he spreads my thighs wider apart, lifting my ass off the bed and pleasurably assaulting me with his creative tongue. He’s eating me like I’m his last meal and it feels so good. His eyes sear into mine. That insatiable look he has right now is my undoing. I can’t look away and I’m pretty sure if I do he’ll stop and I’ll beg him to continue. At this point I wouldn’t be embarrassed to beg him to pleasure me. The flicker of his tongue and grip he has on my legs has me dizzy and rushing with overwhelming orgasms too unbearable for my body to handle.
“Mason,” I shout, “I can’t.”
“Shhh, take it, sweetheart,” he tells me and hearing those words relaxes me for a second before I feel him sucking on my clit. “You don’t want me to stop.”
“No,” I moan. “I don’t.” It’s so hard to talk when he’s doing this to me. I never thought oral sex could feel like this until Mason. His expert tongue and simple sucks gives me an experience like no other. This man . . . my man . . . I’m never letting him go.
Slowly I feel his finger slide into me and that’s all I need before my orgasm recklessly takes over, sending my body into a relaxed state of feeling so good there are no words to describe. Not wasting another moment Mason pulls me up and lays me down. He hovers over me and gently kisses my lips, face, and neck.
“You’re so beautiful when you give me everything,” he whispers and continues soothing me. “So beautiful and mine. You’re mine.”
“Always yours,” I manage to squeak out.
Gently sliding into me, Mason slows his thrusts and the sweetness of him between my thighs is beyond beautiful and seductive. It’s our love making soundtrack only for us to hear and feel.
I watch my beautiful wife with her best friend and my sister laughing and talking. They’re enjoying the night and Caroline’s never looked so beautiful. Seeing her walk down the beach with my dad and Evan’s dad by her side will always stay with me. Hearing her vows and promising me forever is my undoing. That smile, that sweet smile, she gives me, telling me everything will be okay.
A hand on my shoulder pulls me out of my stalker obsession of Caroline. Turning around I see Clarke handing me a beer. “Congratulations again, man. You two deserve this. It’s been one hell of a year.”
I flinch thinking about the shit that happened. My nightmares are gone and I’m thankful for Caroline. Without her as my rock I would’ve driven myself crazy. She’s my savior and my strength.
After therapy and some desk work, the decision to teach at the academy came to me. No one asked me to step down or reconsider being an officer. This was something I needed to do. Since I became a cop I’ve been threatened, but never like this. Never was I kidnapped and nearly left for dead. Broken bones, blurry vision, difficulty breathing and loss of hope flooded me. I was in physical therapy for a few months after waking from a coma. Caroline never lost hope and stayed by my side. When I got out of the hospital, we stayed with my parents for a while, but every night I dreamt of that night and the beating I endured. I woke up screaming and one night it was so bad I thought Caroline was Javier and pushed her so hard she fell off the bed knocking her head on the floor. Heather came in and took her away. I stayed away from everyone for the next few days until Caroline came back to me and looked at me. She told me everything I needed to hear and from that moment on I became serious about therapy and focused on getting better. I focused on my life and Caroline’s because I couldn’t lose her.
“It’s worth it,” I tell Clarke. “It’s made us stronger and we’re building a family. You know, she told me I better get her pregnant while we’re here.”
Clarke laughs and shakes his head. “Looks like you have a lot of expectations.”
“Sure fucking do.”
When the song changes to a slow number I leave Clarke and walk over to my wife, my everything, and my best friend. Taking her hand I spin her to my body and dip her down slowly.
“Mason,” she giggles and holds onto me tightly.
“I love you, Mrs. Ryan,” I tell her and slowly bend my head so my lips touch hers. “So much.”
“I love you too.”
Pulling her back up in my arms we sway to the music. I don’t hear anything or see anyone. All I see is Caroline and all I want is for her to be happy and give her the life she deserves.
The words from the song hit us hard. Break on Me by Keith Urban fills the tent and Caroline buries her head into my chest. This is our song.
When I feel her body slightly shake I hold her tighter and whisper in her ear, “Don’t cry.”
“I’m so happy,” she whispers. “So happy. You are my everything, Mason. Thank you for giving me you. Thank you for saving me, and thank you for coming back.”
“I’ll never leave you, Caroline. You have me forever.”
Looking into her eyes I know I see what I want and what I’ll cherish until the end of time. It’s her love that makes me whole. This is where I belong.
