"I swear I’ve never done that before."
He hides his filthy smirk in the still-quivering flesh of her belly, more smug than the cat that got the damn canary. Or, well, cream seems better in this case. Gingerly, he removes his fingers and wipes them on the driest part of their soaked bed. She's still riding out the aftershocks and it's the single most beautiful thing he's ever seen in his life. His wife, unabashed in her pleasure and still reeling from it--god damn, ain't nothing better than this.
Even the burn of his own arousal takes a backseat to seeing her finally tumble over the cliff of ecstasy, body bowing in rictus as she fell apart, blush traveling down to the tops of her freckled breasts as she realized just what her body could do with enough stimulation. Not that Remy allowed her to feel shame about that--non, not at all. She felt good, and he made her feel that good; shame does not exist in their bed. Especially not now.
Those sheets need to get to the washer. The mattress might be a lost cause. He huffs out a sigh, sweaty-sweet in the late night, and she pushes at his head with a groan, overstimulated and sticky in the syrupy heat of a Louisianian summer. He goes up on his elbows willingly, staring down at his beautiful wife bathed in the full moon's glow. God damn. Whatever hell he went through was worth it for these quiet moments between them two. That he swears.
She looks up at him, the green of her eyes blown out to a mere ring, curls slicked to the glistening column of her neck, a brave bead of sweat traveling down low, low, low 'til it disappears into her cleavage, and laughs, almost incredulously, at what the hell had transpired between them this time. Punch-drunk. Sensitive. Happy. Carefree in a way that he knows will not last the night; a fragile way that he cherishes with his long, long memory.
He leans in to brush a kiss against a peach-warmed cheek.
❛ Tu es magnifique, sha. ❜
