But this right here, with Abby snuggled into my body, was what the holidays were about.
“How did the charity thing go?” Abby asked.
“It went really well,” I said. “You were actually the inspiration for my speech.”
“What?” she asked, giggling. “No, I wasn’t.”
“You were. I even quoted you at the end.”
“What in the world did I say that was quotable?” she asked.
“‘None of the greatest things in life are easy to come by.’”
“I said that?”
“You certainly did,” I said.
“Huh. Well, it makes me sound smart.”
“Because you are.”
I placed a kiss on top of her head before she snuggled closer into my body. Her legs were curled up on the couch while the heat of the fire beat down against our bodies. I wanted to tell her all about the event. How we raised all the money we would need to send more people this summer to build fresh water wells. How we would be able to donate more to fresh water charities than the company had ever been able to in the past. I wanted to tell her about how well the meeting went and about how happy Mac was with everything. How we would be emerging into the European market soon and how we would have to take on even more staff with the expansion.
But the only thing I could do was smile down upon her and chuckle.
“What?” she asked as she looked up at me.
“Nothing,” I said. “This is just nice.”
“Thought maybe I looked funny or something,” she said, grinning.
“Never. You’ll always be beautiful. Especially in the light of the dancing flames of a fireplace.”
“You really should do that more often,” she said.
“Do what?” I asked.
“Laugh. Chuckle. Whatever that beautiful sound is you make when you’re happy about something. I love that sound.”
“You love it, huh?”
“I do,” she said.
“Good, because I plan on doing it a lot more.”
She looked right up at me with those big doe eyes, and I found my face gravitating toward hers. Our lips interconnected in a swirl of romance and passion, and soon, we were removing each other’s clothing. Our clothes were cast onto the carpet as the fire roared behind us, flickering a blindingly beautiful glow off Abby’s skin. She glistened as I laid her down, our lips devouring each other in a desperate attempt to taste more. Soon, we were clad in nothing but our skin as I sank between her legs, feeling her luscious heat radiating against my pelvis.
My hands planted beside her shoulders as I raised myself up. I locked my gaze with hers, watching the flames of the fire dance in the reflection of her eyes. I smiled, a chuckle falling effortlessly from my lips while my dripping thickness stood ready at her entrance.
Then she wrapped her legs around me and pulled me close.
Groaning, I dipped my face into the crook of her neck. I could feel her hands running along my back, tugging and gripping at my muscles as I slowly coated my skin with her arousal. She felt just like I remembered. She felt just as tight and just as sweet as she did in my dreams. The plush cushions held our weight as I slowly dipped in and out from her body, feeling her tremble against my skin.
“Colin, please,” she said. “Please, go faster.”
Peppering her skin with kisses, I rolled my hips harder into hers. I could feel her toes caressing the backs of my legs, shivering my entire body. I couldn’t get enough of her. I couldn’t taste enough of her skin between my teeth. I could smell her scent and feel her dripping down my cock. I could feel her massaging me in ways I’d only ever experienced with her. Goosebumps were lining my skin as my body flushed with her efforts.
Soon, she was raising her hips to meet mine as my lips danced all around her bosom.
Her hands wound into the tendrils of my hair before our lips crashed together again. I swallowed her moans as her heels dug into my body. I could feel her clinging to me, hanging on with every ounce of strength she had as her body vibrated against mine. I raked my tongue against the roof of her mouth and pulled a groan from her body. Then I smirked against her once I felt her shiver.
I pounded into her harder as the couch rocked, my snapping hips scooting the couch across the plush carpet with every thrust I gave her body.
“Please. Colin. I’m almost… don’t stop.”
Reaching down, I picked up one of her legs and slid it over my shoulder. I felt her exposed clit rubbing against my pelvis as I ground into her, burying my length inside her body. I collided my hips with hers over and over while her body shook, and I watched as her beautiful brown eyes rolled right into the back of her head.
“That’s it,” I said. “Let it go. Let me have it, Abby.”
“Oh, Colin.”
The way she choked upon my name as her bosom arched into my body caused me to stop. I sank myself into her depths as her pussy pulled me deeper, begging for me to fill her body as I held her close to my chest. Her fingernails scraped along the top of my head as my lips sucked in patches of skin along her neck. She shook and jolted as her legs clamped around my hips, trapping the whole of me against her as I soaked up her warmth.
Her back collided with the couch once the force of her climax was finished, and I could feel her dripping onto the cushions. She was heaving for breath as a sheen of sweat covered her brow, and soon,
