“Take it, sweetheart,” Kade rumbled against her flesh. “Come apart for me.”
Kade’s teeth clamped gently to her clit, flicking it over and over again with his tongue. He thrust two fingers into her channel, fucking her deep and hard, while his tongue created waves of pleasure that had her moaning and thrashing on the bed, so desperate to come that she was focused only on Kade.
Her climax hit her like a speeding freight train…fast, hard, and devastating. Her whole body shook as Kade kept rocking her body with his tongue and fingers, pulling every drop of pleasure he could from her.
Asha lay there panting after it was over, feeling raw, vulnerable, and completely loved. She watched as Kade climbed up her body like a dangerous animal—strong, powerful, and incredibly male. His expression was almost feral, and Asha felt an answering carnal need rising inside her. “Fuck me, Kade. I need to feel you.” She needed to be joined to him in the most primal of ways, and the urge was soul deep.
“I love you, Asha,” he groaned, his cock thrusting into her with one deep, long stroke.
“Ah…” She sighed, her body opening to him immediately, naturally. “I love you,” she echoed, needing to tell him again and again. She’d had to stifle the emotion for so long that it was a relief to finally be able to share that part of herself with him.
With her ass already elevated, Kade had only to grasp her hips and thrust. He wasn’t gentle or easy. He rode her with the ferocity of a man who was coming completely undone. “Fuck! You’re so damn beautiful,” he rasped as his cock pummeled into her. “So hot. So tight. So damn mine. Never another woman. You’re all I want. You were always meant to be mine.”
Asha’s heart thundered in her ears, her body quaking as Kade spoke the passionate, possessive words that clenched at her heart.
Wrapping her legs around his waist, she savored his hard possession, feeling a sense of finally being exactly where she was supposed to be. “Harder,” she demanded, wanting to surrender completely to him.
Kade buried his cock inside her in deep, forceful strokes, dominating her senses until she reached her peak with volatile intensity. “Kade. Kade. Kade.” She chanted as her body convulsed around him, her core milking him, causing him to flood her with his hot release.
Releasing a strangled groan, Kade leaned forward and quickly released her wrists. “Shit. I marked you.”
Asha’s breath was sawing in and out of her lungs as she felt the circulation returned to her fingers. “Worth it,” she gasped, knowing the only reason she had marks was because Kade had sent her over the edge of reason.
“Never,” Kade growled, rolling to his back and pulling her half over him and half beside him. “I never want to leave a mark on you.”
Asha looked up at the faint lines and smiled. “Call them love marks. I couldn’t help myself,” she told him breathlessly. “I needed something to hold on to.”
“Next time you can hold onto me,” Kade answered irritably, kissing the faint line on her wrist.
“I don’t know…that was pretty hot.” Asha sighed and snuggled up to Kade’s body.
“I can’t fuck you into submission,” Kade answered, wrapping his arms around her body and pulling her skin-to-skin with him.
“You can. Anytime you want to,” Asha answered eagerly.
Kade grinned down at her. “That good, huh?”
She nodded and smiled. “I changed my mind. My answer is yes. You can’t fuck me into submission for any reason other than pleasure, but you made love to me until I saw sense. I realized that we do belong together. I think we’ve both seen enough heartache in our lives. I just want to be happy together. And I can still heal and find out who I am when I’m with you. You’re actually part of who I am. One of the best parts.”
“You mean it?” Kade asked gruffly. “Tell me you’re going to marry me.”
Asha leaned up and beamed at him. “I’m going to marry you,” she answered obligingly.
Kade rolled her under him and held her wrists over her head. “Say it again,” he commanded.
Asha glanced up at his face, so strong and stormy, yet with a hint of vulnerability in his eyes.
“I’m going to marry you,” she said louder and with even more conviction.
“It was inevitable, you know,” Kade replied in a more cocky tone.
“Was it?” Asha answered happily. Really, how could she not be ecstatic when a man like Kade loved her and wanted to marry her so desperately?
“Yep. I would have hounded you until you said yes. I never give up.”
She smiled at him, her love shining from her eyes. Kade’s tenacity was one of the things she loved about him, and she was pretty sure he would have done just that.
He lifted himself off her and slid out of bed, coming back with a velvet box. He sat naked on the side of the bed and flipped the lid open. “You deserve a real proposal with flowers, candlelight, and a romantic dinner. And I’ll give you all of that. But for now, could you just say you’ll marry me one more time?”
