Gage reached out and pulled her to him and kissed her.

Oh, he didn’t miss the look in her expressive eyes.

Something was on her mind. He slowly broke the kiss and keeping his arm around her, led them to the front door.

He would be patient and let her speak up first. One thing he had learned about Stacey over the last two years was that once something was on her mind, she usually didn’t keep it to herself for too long.

Once inside, he dropped his bag on the table in the entry way along with his keys.

“Care for a beer?” he asked.

“A beer sounds good right now.” She answered, relaxing a little.

“How was your day?” Gage inquired as they entered the kitchen.

“It was productive. I received a book with potential and sent it to my boss. I really hope he takes it on. Oh, it needs a little work sure, but I think it would be a perfect fit for our romantic suspense line.” Stacey said, leaning against the kitchen counter.

“Krista said you finally got the bullet holes and stuff patched and fixed upstairs.”

“Yeah, me, Danny, and Tony got it all cleaned up and repaired last weekend. Right before the party at Blackout.” He nodded, handing her the beer. “Okay doll, spill. Why were you waiting for me? Did something happen?”

Stacey took a swallow of her beer before answering.

“Yeah, something did. And no, it’s nothing to do with the asshat.

Walt called me this afternoon. He’s being released tomorrow and said to tell you hi.

” She paused, taking another swallow. “Anyway, while we were talking, he said something, and it’s been bouncing in my head ever since. ”

Gage took a pull of his own beer. “What did he say?”

“He asked how you and I were doing, and I said we were doing great. He said it sounded like I may be in love.”

Gage’s heart skipped a beat then leap into his throat.

When she sat her beer on the counter, he mirrored her.

He was afraid to even breathe as he watched her think over what she was about to say.

He knew in the next few moments his world was going to change one way or the other.

He was either going to feel like Superman or he was going to feel like a piece of shit on the bottom of someone’s shoe.

“Gage, he’s right. I am in love with you.” Stacey stated, her eyes locking with his.

––––––––

––––––––

G age felt like Superman on steroids. In one stride, he closed the gap between him and Stacey.

Yanking her against him, his mouth captured hers in a kiss he felt clear to his toes.

When Stacey whimpered and sank against him, Gage cupped her ass, lifted her off her feet and started walking.

He groaned when her legs locked around his waist, and she pressed herself against him.

He was rock hard and wanted them both naked in his bed right now.

He walked into the bedroom, kicking the door closed and kept moving to the edge of the bed.

Gage pulled his lips from hers and stared into her eyes as they slowly opened.

“How’s that for an answer babe?”

“That’s...a hell of an answer big boy.”

Gage smirked, “I want you right now Stacey. I want you to strip except for those damned boots. Leave them on.”

Stacey giggled as he slowly set her back on her feet. “Then you better strip and get on the bed big boy.”

Gage watched her as he stripped first and now naked, climbed onto the bed.

Stacey moved at the edge of the bed, turned and faced him.

Keeping her eyes on him, she began to undress.

Reaching behind her, Stacey tugged at the zipper of her dress.

Slowly. She felt drunk as Gage watched her.

His eyes burning with lust and love. There had been no mistaking what his answer was when she told him she loved him.

That kiss said he felt the same. Now unzipped, Stacey began pealing the dress from her body.

On the bed, Gage growled when she cupped her breasts before pushing the dress further down.

She felt her nipples pebbling in the confines of her bra.

“God Stacey, you are so beautiful.” Gage breathed, fisting his erection.

“I could say the same about you Gage.” Stacey sighed; the dress now pooled at her feet. She stepped out of it and reached up to undo her bra. “I feel so drunk right now. The way you’re looking at me at this moment.”

“Good.” He smiled as the bra fell to the floor.

“Play with your tit’s babe. Imagine my hands on them.

My mouth.” Gage throbbed in his hand when she followed his instructions.

Her hands cupping her breasts. Her fingers teasing and rolling her hard nipples.

He couldn’t wait to get his own hands and mouth on them.

“That’s it Stacey. Are you getting wet for me? ”

“Y...yes...” she gasped, her hips slowly undulating.

“Take off that damned thong. Tell me how wet you are.” He ordered.

Stacey didn’t hesitate. Over the last year she had seen hints of this side to Gage and every time she did it drove her crazy.

She and Krista had talked, and Krista had told her that Ethan could be quite domineering in bed.

Gage was different. He liked to give her instructions but left it up to Stacey as to how she did or didn’t follow them.

Gage was aggressive in bed, and she loved it, but he wasn’t dominate in the same way as Krista described Ethan.

“Touch yourself for me Stacey.” Gage said, bringing her back to the moment.

Stacey gasped when she slid a finger inside herself. “Gage...”

“How wet are you? Tell me babe.” Gage ordered, stroking himself slowly as he watched.

“I’m soaked Gage...” she gasped adding another finger.

“I want you. Now.” He groaned.

She removed her fingers and as she slid on the bed with him, offered them to him.

Gage never took his eyes from her when he sucked her wet fingers into his mouth.

There was something in his eyes that shot through her and made her quiver.

His tongue was slipping and sliding around her fingers as he moved up and over her.

Her fingers slid from his mouth as he placed his palms on either side of her head.

“I love you, Stacey. I love you so much.”

“Oh Gage...”

“Wrap your legs around me.”

Stacey was helpless but did it. Her legs, still encased in her boots, wrapped high around his waist. Their eyes remained locked as Gage reached down and guided himself into her.

Both gasped the other’s name as he sheathed himself.

Slowly he pushed into her, letting her feel every inch.

Stacey arched her hips, giving him more access.

She could feel him throb as he moved deeper.

With one last thrust, Gage was buried to the hilt inside her.

Stacey’s arms wound around his neck, her back bowing.

“Christ...you’re so wet. Tight.” He gritted.

“You’re so deep Gage.” She gasped. “I love you.”

“I love you too.” He whispered before kissing her.

While initially Gage had wanted to fuck her senseless after she confessed her love, now that he was here, inside her, he changed his mind.

He would show her with his body what how much she meant to him.

How much he loved her. Keeping the kiss slow, Gage began to move.

Beneath him, Stacey matched his slow movements.

One hand started sliding over her body. Tracing the curve and swell of her neck, shoulders, the sides of her breasts.

Down her rib cage to her hips. Her legs tightened around him when he shifted slightly and thrust deeper.

Stacey cried out, pulling her lips from his as she threw her head back.

Gage couldn’t resist and started kissing at the column of her neck, his other hand cuffing her wrists over her head.

“Gage...please...”

“That’s it Stacey. Just enjoy what I’m doing to you.”

“So good. God, I love you, Gage.”

“Give in Stacey. Let go for me.”

It took all Gage had not to lose it when he felt Stacey spasm around his cock.

Her muscles clamped him deliciously as she bucked and writhed beneath him.

He couldn’t hold back. He needed her too badly.

Keeping her wrists over her head, he slid his free arm under her and lifted.

This new position allowed him to sink even deeper and made Stacey cry his name as her eyes flew open.

“I need you.” He told her.

“Yes Gage. Fuck me.” She all but pleaded.

Gage grinned and proceeded to do just that.

His hips rocked back and forth, driving harder and faster into her as Stacey cried out for more.

Her hips matched his rhythm, her need as strong as his.

She dug the back of her feet into his back as she rocked up when he thrust into her.

They both were being consumed by their need for each other and Gage just wanted more.

More of her body, more of her love, more of her.

“Gage...I’m going...don’t stop. Please!”

“Stacey...come for me. Now!”

Their bodies froze as their orgasm shot through them in perfect harmony.

Gage saw stars as he emptied himself into her.

He felt her shudder under him, her short nails digging into his hand that held her wrists prisoner.

As he felt the last of his orgasm seep from his body, Gage released her wrists and rolled onto his side.

His arms engulfed her still trembling body, holding her to him.

He sighed at the feeling of them still joined physically and now emotionally.

“Wow.” Stacey breathed. “That was...I’ve never felt anything like that before.”

“Me either babe.” Gage agreed, kissing her forehead. “I nearly blacked out there for a second.”

Stacey giggled, then groaned when she felt him slip from her body. “Oh, god.”
