I Love You

I sighed as the sensation of him swelled within me. It felt so right, so perfect. Despite how much time had passed, this was everything that I remembered, everything that reminded me of how unmistakably we belonged to each other. Tightening my arms around him, I clutched onto him with my inner muscles. "Bai Ye …" I breathed. "Keep it slow … I want to feel you … for as long as I can."

He let out a soft chuckle. "My thoughts precisely," he said, and our lips met once more.

Instead of the earlier, passionate kiss, this one was slow and lingering just like his motion below. He folded his arms around me, caressing my back with the warmth of his palm while he pressed his chest into me, sealing the space between us. The heat of his skin burned against mine, and I sizzled at the overwhelming presence of him surrounding me, within and without.
