Ginny came, her muscles fluttering around him, once, twice. That second one nearly did for him, but he held off on tipping over. One more, then he’d genuinely feel he’d satisfied her.

Ash’s brains were melting and in danger of bleeding out of his ears. Something else was building too, the pressure almost too much to bear. Just another stroke, two more… The damn burst. He was spraying rocket fuel everywhere, and burning like he had a thermonuclear device at his core.

Coming seemed to last forever. Yet ended all too quickly.

Drained of every last drop of energy, Ash collapsed against the kitchen cupboards, reseating Ginny on the granite surface. He buried his head against her breasts and licked the sweat from her skin. He was done. Still inside her, but done, but he didn’t want to move. Not yet, not until he absolutely had to. He wanted this connection to last as long as possible.

Ash nudged aside her bra with his cheek so that he could wrap his mouth around her nipple and suck. Oh, yeah! Life wasn’t so grim after all when he could spend it in this position.

“Take me to bed,” she whispered after a moment or two. Yeah, he had no objections to doing that. The thought of cuddling up tight to her sounded pretty heavenly. He did take a moment to whisk a cloth over the countertops before they vacated the kitchen. Spook would kill them if he knew how they’d been mistreating his home. Then again, you’d have thought he’d have anticipated such happenings considering who he’d invited to stay. Xane notoriously got around, even when he was being discreet. Still, he didn’t want to appear to be too terrible a houseguest.

As they went hand in hand to the bedroom, it occurred to Ash that having a future that he could look forward to was a genuine possibility again. He wasn’t sure if Ginny’s methods would actually fix him, but they’d made him feel a darn sight better about himself. For the first time since he’d toppled off the stage, he actually felt like a whole person again.
