As the crowd dwindled and the phone chat eventually ended with thank yous all around, my mother came and gathered our sleepy princess for bed.
“I’m going to take this little miss to get a bath and go to bed. You two go get some sleep. It’s been a long day for you both.”
We both kissed Ameria goodnight and then went through the house to the bedroom Finn had occupied for the last few weeks. Alone. I had only had one night of sleeping by his side, but I missed it when I couldn’t be next to him. Now he was here with me, and I was nervous—excited, but nervous.
“Henry, go take a shower and get ready for bed. I’ll go after you.”
Feeling bold, I slowly let my linen robe fall to the floor, then pulled my shirt over my head and dropped my pants. I was standing in front of Finn naked and hard before I answered, “I think it would be more fun if you joined me.”
I sauntered to the bathroom, putting a little more sway in my hips than normal. All the warning I got was a low growl from behind me, and then I was hoisted over his shoulder to the shower.
Finn was a dedicated lover and knew exactly how to make me moan with pleasure. He washed every inch of me reverently, and then it was my turn to get him clean before we got dirty. While I was washing him, his hands wandered, eventually finding my ass, using the soap to slip one, then two fingers inside. I was hard and leaking by the time he worked his way up to three.
“I don’t ever want to hurt you, Henry.”
I melted from his sincere love and concern. When his long finger reached in and found my prostate, I nearly howled with pleasure. He knew my body already, and it was amazing.
After the shower, Finn toweled me off and took his time carrying me to the bed and laying me down. He took one foot in hand and then kissed the instep, then the top, then the ankle. He kissed every part of my leg, then when he got to the upper thigh, he went back to the other foot and started again.
“You tease! Kiss me where I need it, Finn. Please?”
Finn smiled through that thick gorgeous beard and just kept kissing my leg one inch at a time. His lips were so soft, and his beard tickled in places. He wouldn’t let me giggle or get distracted. He’d slow down and wait until I was paying attention again. This time when he got to the upper thigh, he bypassed my raging hardness and leaned up to kiss my belly, then my chest, finally settling on my nipples. After he drove me crazy, sucking and licking and nipping each one until they were red with need, he kissed my neck and then nibbled my ears. He kissed and loved every single part of my body, except the part that was begging for attention.
“Finn, please. I need you. Please.”
He smiled and kissed me long and deep, our tongues dancing in unison, not fighting for dominance, but playing with each other like we’d been practicing for years. As he kissed me, I felt him reach to the side and use the lube I’d put there earlier before the shower. Once he had lubed up, he lined himself up with my entrance and kissed me lovingly once again. As he slid in and made us not two, but one, he spoke against my lips. “I love you, Henry. Now and always.”
When he pushed all his length inside for the first time and said the words I loved to hear, I threw my arms around him and told him words from my heart.
“Fuck, I love you too, Finn.” I squeezed my canal and forced a deep moan from him, making me smile in triumph. “Now that that’s out of the way, fuck me like you mean it, big guy.”
And damned if he didn’t fuck me, make love to me and everything in between all night long. And then the following morning, we started all over again.
It was heavenly.
Chapter 13
Finn
“I can’t believe our time is up already.”
Henry was having a hard time with the fact that Ameria would have to go to the next Mage today. I’d texted with Jemma already and told her I would summon her to this realm to make a safe transfer. We had spent the last few days playing and exploring the forests that were so different than the ones I was used to. It was fascinating that even here, the trees and plants bent to get nearer to her.
I looked up from the journal where I was making my last entry to let Jemma and the others know what we’d done and what milestones she’d reached this month. Granted, I had been involuntarily asleep through some of it, but Henry had filled me in on the details.
“I know. It’ll be hard to let her go, but it’s for the best that she not get too attached to anyone while they’re solving the crime. Her parent’s murderer is still out there somewhere, and like they say, a moving target is harder to hit.”
Henry sighed and rested his head in his hand on the outdoor table, watching Ameria play with the other children in the grass. There were no harmful bugs here, which was very nice. The
