Harrison felt bad for wanting her too. Because an argument could be made that that was all he wanted from her too.

But he knew, deep down, that wasn’t true at all.

He removed her hands from his temples, and held them as he stared into her eyes.

“You’re a sweet, wonderful girl, Jayda. You deserve better than me.

You deserve better than any man walking the face of this earth. And don’t you forget that.”

Jayda smiled that smile again, although he could tell she doubted what he was saying. Her experience had been the complete opposite. But he could also tell she appreciated him saying it. “Thanks,” she said. But then that sadness came over her again.

“What’s wrong, Jayda?”

He said it so heartfelt that it touched her. And tears appeared in her eyes. “I’m so tired of going nowhere. I try so hard in every job I’ve ever had, but I keep ending up with nothing.”

“And the guys in your life?”

She shook her head. “Like I said, they never wanted me. Nobody ever wanted me . They just wanted what they could get from me.” Then she looked into his eyes. “Like you,” she said honestly. His heart dropped.

Then she frowned. “But it’s okay,” she said when she saw his reaction. “I’m a realist. I’m no air-headed romantic okay? I’m one of those people that people use. It’s just the way it is. But . . .”

“But what, Jayda?”

But I’m tired of being used , she wanted to scream. But she knew that man didn’t give a damn about her screams. So she smiled instead. He was her home, but that didn’t mean she was his home. “But even though I didn’t last very long as a massage trainee, I still can give good massages.”

Harrison smiled too, although he knew it was the way she coped. “Damn good massages,” he said. “My headache feels better already.”

She was pleased. “Really?”

“Absolutely. I wouldn’t lie to you.”

The way he said those words warmed her heart for some reason. And she smiled again.

And that smile was too much for Harrison. This girl was one of a kind and he knew it. That was why he didn’t hesitate, or wait for her to resist. He pulled her into his arms. And held her there for what seemed like a lifetime, but was only a few minutes.

And then they both got out of the tub, he handed her a towel and got one himself, and they began drying off.

“You do realize,” Jayda said with a smile as they dried off, “that we didn’t bathe at all?”

Harrison smiled and then he laughed a booming laugh. “That’s right!” he said with a grin. “Maybe next time.”

She nodded. She loved his grin. “Yep,” she said. “Maybe.”

But what she loved most about that evening was when he escorted her to his bedroom, turned down his fancy satin sheets, and they got into bed. Just the two of them. And they laid on their sides facing each other. Somehow she knew she was safe with this man.

And she also knew as she stared into his eyes, that he was somebody she could fall madly in love with. Which could be her undoing. He didn’t believe in love, at least that was how she interpreted what he’d said to her. If she fell, she was going to be falling down a one-way street.

But even that didn’t scare her. She felt too good. Too relaxed around him. And she smiled.

Which made him smile too. “What’s funny?”

“You broke your promise.”

Harrison’s smile left. “What promise did I break?”

“You promised me that no clothes would come off, and here both of us are laying in this bed naked.”

Harrison laughed. He could love this girl! “It wasn’t just me,” he said. “You broke your promise too.”

Now it was Jayda’s time to be concerned. “What promise I broke?”

“You said you were never going to sleep with me. Now look at you. In bed ready to close your eyes and go to sleep with me.”

Jayda laughed too. “You know what I meant! I didn’t mean sleep sleep.”

He nodded. “Duly noted.” Then he rubbed the back of his hand against her soft cheek.

But as soon as he touched her face something happened. Something changed. Because their lighthearted banter turned suddenly serious. And neither one of them were smiling any more. Those feelings became too intense.

And although Harrison knew he had promised her, and although they had just joked about it, there was nothing funny about it anymore. He looked down at her beautiful lips, and he knew there was no stopping him now.

As he moved his lips toward her lips, hoping she would not resist him, he stared into her eyes.

It would not be her body, because he could feel the heat generating off of her too, but it would be her eyes that answered his question.

And when her eyes softened as he purposely slowly moved in closer, he had his answer.

She was afraid, he saw the fear in her eyes, but she was willing too.

She had feelings she could not suppress any longer either.

And that was the end of his caution. Because as soon as his lips touched her lips, it was all over for both of them. He wrapped her into his arms, slamming her body against his body, and they kissed a long, hard, deeply penetrating kiss. So deep that neither one of them wanted to stop.

For Harrison it was all in her taste. He couldn’t believe how wonderfully she tasted.

For Jayda it was all in the way he was holding her, and his rock-hard rod pressed against her, and how badly she wanted so much more of him.

She got more than she bargained for.

He moved down the length of her body, kissing every inch of her, until he was between her thighs.

And that was when he moved in so hard that he lifted her butt off of those sheets.

It was as if it was too intense for her to bear.

She squeezed the sheets until her fingers hurt.

That was how hard Harrison went down on her.

But when he couldn’t hold out much longer, he moved back up the length of her and looked at her closed eyes, her head leaned back, her elegant neck. He wanted her so badly that he wanted no barriers between them. But would she allow it?

He pressed his mouth to her ear as if what he was about to say to her was so private that he didn’t even want the universe to hear it. “I need you to trust me,” he whispered.

Jayda’s eyes opened wide. “Trust you?”

“I need you to believe me when I tell you that I have never, in over twenty years, had any type of intercourse without a condom. Not in all those years. Not once. But right now,” he said so heartfelt that she leaned back and looked into his eyes. They were bright with anticipation.

“But right now,” he said again as they stared into each other’s eyes, “I need you to believe what I just said to you and to trust that I won’t lie to you.

I don’t want any barrier between us. I want us to be raw and honest with each other in every way.

” Then an anguished, sincere look appeared on his face. “Will you trust me, Jayda?”

Jayda stared into his eyes. “I haven’t had unprotected sex in years either,” she said to him. “After I found out that every man I let in always cheated on me, I never went unprotected again. They didn’t like it, but I made them do it if they wanted to be with me.”

Her face displayed a hard no. How could she believe him?

But somehow she did. As Harrison held his breath, expecting a no, she spoke again. “But I’m going to give you a chance,” she said.

When she said those words, Harrison’s face lit up in a way that transformed it. Which made Jayda feel even better about her unusual decision. But she was still serious. “You better not misuse that chance,” she added.

He went back to her ear, which only heightened her arousal. “Oh my dear,” he whispered to her, “I will never misuse it. You just made my day.”

And with her permission, he did her.

Because of his size, he knew he had to go hard from the outset or she wouldn’t be able to take it inch by inch. One shock to the system was what she needed, and that was what she got.

He guided his big, meaty penis to her opening, felt the tip of that opening, and then he thrust it inside of her with such a hard thrust that it momentarily took Jayda’s breath away. She lurched her entire body, and felt as if she was going to explode, when he thrust it in.

At first the pain was so excruciating to her that it produced immediate beads of sweat on her forehead. And Harrison could see the alarm all over her face. She didn’t think she could take it. But he had prepped her well. He knew she could.

Because once he was all the way in, he didn’t move. Although he was throbbing, his penis just sat there. Until he could see, on her face, in her terrified eyes that was now staring into his eyes, that the pain was subsiding. She was getting accustomed to his size inside of her.

And then, when her eyes gave him the permission to move, he didn’t hesitate.

Because he couldn’t hold out another second anyway.

He began sliding inside of her with such tenderness that it took all he had not to cum within moments of his movement.

But he didn’t want to hurt her again. He didn’t want to shortchange her.

He took it as slow, and as easy as he could. He took his time.

Jayda knew he wanted to go hard on her. She knew that was his way.

But she so appreciated his patience that she hugged him tightly and began to enjoy the ride.

It was still achingly tight, and he was expanding even more, but the more he moved, the better it felt.

Until it felt so good that she couldn’t even remember it feeling any other way.

She gave in to him, and let him lead them there.

The moment he knew he had her was when she hugged him so tightly that it touched to his heart.

So much so that as he moved slowly within her, he looked into those big brown eyes again.

And although they were completely closed, he could see that glow all over her face.

She was enjoying it now. The pain was gone.

But it was that knowledge that took him over.

He still tried to keep it sweet and slow. But that wasn’t his natural way. And within minutes he was increasing his movements. When he looked and saw that she was taking it, he increased even more.

But every time he was on the edge of cumming, he would slow it back down.

He didn’t want it to end and he could tell she didn’t want him to end it either.

That was the best feeling ever for Harrison.

Other women just wanted that feeling he gave to them.

That ultimate cum. And that was all he wanted from them too.

But with Jayda it was different. He wanted that ultimate cum, alright, but he also wanted to experience her. To feel every inch of her. To enjoy just being inside of her. He wanted that intimacy that he’d never wanted with any other lady before.

And it was that need that kept him from going over.

And for nearly half an hour they were able to lay in that bed, hold each other tightly, and make a long-lasting love that neither one of them wanted to ever end.

Their moans, their groans, and every inch of their bodies reaffirmed just how different it was for both of them.

They were both experienced adults. They’d had sex many times before in their lives. But never anything like this.

And that was why they came so thunderously. He poured into her and filled her. Both of them were shaking it was such an electrifying orgasm. They had never experienced anything like it before. Not even Harrison, who was well-experienced. It left him reeling.

So much so that it took several more minutes for him to stop throbbing, and for her to stop pulsating, and for both of them to settle back down.

But once they settled down, Jayda immediately felt empty and Harrison immediately wanted back in when he eased out of her.

He rolled off of her onto his back, and she remained on her back. Because they were both sweating and breathing heavily and still coming back down to earth.

Then he looked over at her. It took her more time, but then she turned on her side and looked at him. And both of them smiled.

“Think we’re more comfortable with each other now?” Harrison asked her.

She laughed. “If we aren’t shame on us,” she said, and he laughed too.

Then her look turned serious. “It was a good idea, Harrison.”

Harrison was pleased to hear it.

“Did all of that work make your headache return?”

He smiled again. “Are you kidding? That was the best work I’d ever done,” he said as they both began laughing. “Bar none,” he added. “My headache is gone.”

Then he pulled her against him. She laid her head on his chest, and they both felt the weight of their activity and the draining effects of it. “Good night, Jayda,” he said to her.

Then she looked up at him. “Does anybody call you Harry?”

“They’d better not,” he said, and she laughed. “In that case,” she said, “good night, Harrison.”

He pulled her closer against him, kissed her on the top of her head, and closed his eyes. He was no spring chicken anymore. He was exhausted.

And something remarkable happened to Jayda.

Although she had hoped she wouldn’t end up giving away her milk for free again, she didn’t feel like she usually felt afterwards.

She didn’t feel that sense of regret and mistake.

Being with him didn’t take her comfort away, her home away, but just the opposite happened.

She felt more comfortable, more at home afterwards.

She felt as if she was exactly where she should be. Which astounded her.

But for the first time in her life she didn’t overthink it. She just let nature take its course. She closed her eyes and relaxed too.

He held her. He held her even when he fell asleep. He was still holding her when she fell asleep and woke back up, early that Saturday morning, with a smile on her face. His arms were still around her. His arms felt like home too.

And she couldn’t stop staring at him as he slept so peacefully.

And in that moment, as she stared at him, the truth was revealed.

She had been telling herself all night that she could one day fall in love with this man.

But who was she kidding? As crazy as it seemed to her, and as improbable as it could probably ever be, that one day had arrived.

She was in love with this man. She was already there.
