“Come for me,” I demanded, sliding my hand between us to circle her clit. “Let me feel you.”

Her first orgasm hit her hard, her entire body tensing beneath me as she cried out my name. I didn’t slow down, didn’t give her time to recover before pushing her toward another peak. This was what she’d asked for, what we both needed.

“Demetrius,” she moaned, scratching at my back just enough to send sparks of pain and pleasure down my spine. “I can’t—”

“You can,” I insisted, shifting to hit that spot inside her that I knew would send her flying again. “One more time, baby.”

It was even more intense than the first when it hit, her walls clenching around me so tightly it nearly pushed me over the edge. I gritted my teeth, holding back, not ready for this to be over.

I flipped us, putting her on top while still buried inside.

“Ride this dick and cum for me again,” I ordered, watching her adjust to the new position.

She whimpered and placed her hands on my chest for leverage. I let her take control for a moment, then planted my feet on the bed and thrust up hard, meeting her movements. The change had her crying out, her head thrown back as she chased her third release.

I wrapped one arm around her waist while the other gripped her bun, pulling her head back to expose her throat. My mouth found her pulse point, and I sucked hard.

“Echooo,” she sobbed, her entire body trembling around me. “Please.”

Her third orgasm seemed to tear through her, her nails leaving trails of fire down my back as she convulsed around me.The sight of her coming undone, combined with the exquisite pressure of her body, finally broke my resolve. I buried my face against her neck as I followed her over the edge, emptying myself inside her with a groan that came from somewhere deep in my chest.

We stayed like that for several minutes, tangled together, sweat cooling on our skin as our breathing gradually returned to normal. I couldn’t tell where I ended and she began, and for those precious moments, the world outside our bedroom ceased to exist.

Eventually, she stirred, pressing a gentle kiss to my temple before disentangling herself from my arms. She winced slightly as she moved, and I felt a pang of guilt at how rough I’d been.

“You okay?” I asked.

She hummed sleepily and curled into my side, resting her head against my chest.

“More than okay.”

I wrapped my arm around her, holding her close as her breathing began to even out. Within minutes, she was asleep, and I lay there for a while longer, stroking her hair and listening to her soft breaths. But as the pleasure-induced fog cleared from my mind, my thoughts returned to my aunt.

To her betrayal. To what needed to be done.

Carefully, I extracted myself from Forever’s embrace and tucked the blanket around her sleeping form.

I pressed a kiss to her forehead after cleaning up and murmured, “I love you, my forever.”

CHAPTER 47

FOREVER

I woke to an empty bed,but the sheets were still warm. Telling me I hadn’t been out for long.

A smile curved my lips as I stretched; My body ached in all the right places.

“Echo?” I called out, voice still husky from sleep and screaming his name earlier.

The silence of our home answered back, confirming what I already knew.

He’d gone to deal with his aunt. After what we’d learned about her involvement with Solomon and how it connected to me, there was no way he’d let the night end without confronting her.

I sat up, wincing slightly at the tenderness between my thighs. My husband hadn’t held back, hadn’t treated me like I might break. He’d given me exactly what I needed, what we both needed.

The t-shirt I pulled on was his, but smelled of both of us. I moved through our darkened home, checking each room despite knowing I wouldn’t find him. The kitchen was empty. So was the living room. The bathroom light was off, the towel he’d used earlier still damp on the rack.

“So impatient,” I mumbled.
