Part 1: No Regrets(Divine Creek Ranch 2)(25)

Every muscle in her body tightened down, out of her control. “Ooooh!

Yes! Eli! Ba—by! Yes! Eli…I’m…Harder! Don’t stop. I’m coming!” She screamed as she flew apart in a million pieces, every ounce of tension in her whole body suddenly shattering. Grasping her hips, he thrust hard one final time and groaned in ecstasy as he came, his body vibrating with passion. He held her tightly to him and ground his hips against hers, sending her into a wave of aftershocks, and all she could do was hold on to him.

As the storm passed, she looked up at him in awed bliss, trying to catch her breath. For the moment, he was upright, his head tilted back, recovering from his release. His features were relaxed, though the muscles in his arms and chest rippled as he held her tightly to him. She reached for him, and he lowered his massive upper body to hers. He gathered her in his arms and rolled them over so she was on top, their connection unbroken. Breathing hard, she laid her head on his chest and smiled at the sound of his pounding heart.

“Are you all right, Rachel?” He smoothed a hand over her hair. It was his gentleness that released a rush of tears from her eyes. Their lovemaking had been amazingly intense and even more beautiful than she’d imagined.

“Yes, Eli. Thank you,” she murmured, not knowing what else to say as she snuggled into him. She had never experienced such a powerful orgasm before. She released a breathy, satisfied moan and sniffled.

“Look at me, honey.” He touched her cheek, and she lifted her face to look at him, making eye contact. His worried gaze became tender when he saw that she smiled at him through her tears. “Am I hurting you, still being inside you?”

Her eyelids slid closed, and her smile widened a little. She shook her head and laid it back on his chest with a thud, no longer able to hold her head up.

“No, you feel so good inside me. Don’t leave until you want to.”

He chuckled, squeezing her ass playfully. “I’d never want to. Was it as good as you hoped it would be?” She could hear the concern in his voice.

“Infinitely better than I could have imagined. I wish you’d been the first. I’m sorry you weren’t,” she whispered softly. She felt remorseful for rushing into that first time and basically throwing away something more precious than she could realize. She regretted even more all the emotional fallout that resulted from the night she lost her virginity.

She tilted her head up to look up at him as he murmured, “Don’t

apologize. Life is what it is. We’re here together now, loving each other, so there can be no regrets. I love you, Rachel.” He kissed the top of her head.

“I love you so much, Eli. I’m glad you didn’t give up on me.” She wiped away another stray tear and sniffled a little.

“There’s no one else for me but you, Rachel. No one could make me feel the way you do, the way you’ve captured my heart.”

“When you say things like that to me, it makes my heart ache, but in a good way. I’m very happy. You’re going to think I’m crazy, Eli, but I think in a way the fire was a good thing. It forced me to realize how much I needed and wanted you. I’ve gotten used to being independent and self-sufficient. But I know now I need you so much. Whatever we have to go through with those horny women at the club is worth it to me.”

“Remember that it’s you that I need, Rachel. It’s only you that I want touching me, no one else.” He glanced at the clock. “We lost track of time.

Why don’t you get yourself ready for tonight and I’ll take you out for supper before we go in? It’s five p.m.”

Her head shot up. “Five o’clock? I completely lost track of time. I’ll take a shower and get ready. What should I wear?”

“Whatever you’re comfortable in. I’ll bet there’s something pretty in one of those bags Grace brought from Macy’s.”

“Macy’s is Grace’s favorite place to shop, besides Hips and Curves,”

she said, grinning as she sat up while still straddling him.

“Hips and what?” he asked.

“Hips and Curves dot com. Plus-size lingerie.”

“Mmm, interesting. Does Rachel like Hips and Curves?”

“Mmm-hmm. Rachel likes a lot.” She gasped as he pulled out of her, noticing he’d started to get hard again. Eli groaned and smiled at her.

“I’ll probably be hard all evening, getting to be close to you.”

“Maybe if I’m good, you’ll give it to me again when we get home.” She chuckled as she climbed naked from the bed to retrieve the Macy’s bag and brought it back to bed.
