“So fucking incredible.”
He was still appraising me when I reached for his boxers and eased them down over his hips. Taking the hint, he stood and took them off, then reached into his jeans pocket for a condom. My mouth watered as I watched him roll on the condom. A sexy smirk crossed his face as he asked, “You like what you see?”
“Oh, yeah.” A smile crossed my face as I told him, “I like it a lot.”
“Well, that’s good.” He settled back on the bed next to me as he continued, “’Cause you’re going to be seeing a lot of it over the next fifty or sixty years.”
And just like that, he’d answered the question that had been burning in the back of my mind. Rafe wanted a future with me, just as much as I wanted one with him. “I like the sound of that.”
He brushed his thickness against me, teasing me as he ground his hips against mine until I wrapped my legs around him, pulling him to me. He eased inside of me, and my entire body was instantly consumed with need. I couldn’t focus on anything except the touch of his hands on my body, the soft whisper of his kiss, and the tingling sensation that surged through me whenever he shifted deeper within me.
At first his rhythm was slow, intense and demanding, but his pace slowly started to increase, faster and harder, until I felt like my entire body was on fire. “Yes! Oh God, yes!”
He was driving me wild with every hard, deep thrust, and it wasn’t long before I felt a familiar warmth start building in my lower abdomen. My fingers dug into the comforter, twisting and pulling, as my back arched off the bed. A deep growl vibrated through his chest as his fingers slipped into my hair, pulling my head back as he exposed my neck. His breath caressed my skin as he began nipping and sucking from the base of my ear down to my collarbone. My legs tightened around him as my hips involuntarily jolted forward, meeting his thrusts and taking him even deeper.
I inhaled a labored breath as my body shuddered beneath him. Every muscle clenched around him as my orgasm took hold. He continued his relentless rhythm as my body jolted beneath him. Each thrust was more demanding than the last as he came closer to the edge. I was still floating on the high of my own release when I felt his body grow rigid. A deep groan echoed through the room as he drove deep inside me, holding still as he found his release.
My body fell limp as my legs dropped to the mattress, and I let out an exaggerated breath. He eased off me, quickly disposing of the condom before settling on the bed next to me. I was still trying to catch my breath when I muttered, “Yeah, living with you is definitely going to have its advantages.”
“Ah, I’m just getting started, baby. Just wait and see.”
Epilogue
The time had finally come. Marlowe had made it. After busting her ass for the past two years, she’d passed all her classes and was going to graduate. The brothers, along with Gladys, Ada, and Ford, had all come to share in her special day. We all sat there watching as she walked out in her cap and gown. She looked so damn beautiful as she stepped out on the stage, and I couldn’t have been prouder when she took that diploma in her hand and held it high for us all to see. When the ceremony was over, she rushed over to me and lunged into my arms, hugging me tightly. “I did it! I actually did it!”
“Of course you did.” I gave her a tight squeeze as I told her, “Proud of you, babe.”
“I couldn’t have done it without you.”
“I had nothing to do with it.” I looked down at her and smiled. “You did this all on your own.”
“I don’t know about that but thank you all the same.”
I motioned my hand over to Gladys and the brothers as I told her, “You have a few folks who came to see you.”
“Oh my goodness! You all came!”
“No way we’d miss it.” Country hugged her, then stepped back with a shake of his head. “But dang, woman. That shit lasted like two hours. The least you could’ve done was trip or have the wind blow up your skirt. Something to keep us entertained.”
“Sorry to disappoint.”
“I got a way you can make it up to me.” He glanced around at the other graduates as he said, “You could hook me up. Damn. Seeing all these hot women in these robes has me wanting to go to church!”
“You could use some churchin’,” Gladys fussed. “Move over and let me give our girl a hug.”
