Marriage Training Ch. 19

Watching his face as he leaned over her, easing his ache between her thighs, she saw as the stony tension fractured and then fell apart, his lips parting as he groaned in passion. Her insides tightened around him, she was utterly fascinated by the way his face twisted as he thrust hard into her, his ecstasy practically glowing from his dark features. It set off a smaller spasm within her, causing her to ripple and massage the length of his cock as he filled her with his seed.

Vivian moaned helplessly as Gabriel allowed her legs to fall and his weight came down on her, pressing hard against her clit and sending her into paroxysms of delayed pleasure. Her body milked him as he hunched over her, back muscles rippling with the contractions of his own body, until he finally slumped, almost boneless.

The weight of him took her breath away, but she liked it too. It was a comforting kind of weight. She liked the way he felt on top of her, as if he was enveloping her instead of the other way around; she liked the way her body cradled his, the way he felt as she slid her legs over his, twining her limbs around him. Even if she couldn't hold him with her arms, at least she could do so with her legs.

Soft murmurs were followed by kisses up her neck and finally to her lips, laced with such tenderness that it nearly sparked tears in her eyes. Gabriel's fingers slid through her hair, pulling pins out as he went. She hadn't even realized how uncomfortable they had become until he began to alleviate it. Spreading her copper tresses across his pillow, he smiled at a fantasy fulfilled. Vivian in his bed, chained to it in fact, with that glorious hair gleaming against the white of his sheets.

Although leaving her chained was tempting, Gabriel decided to release her before he got up to wet a cloth in the basin of warmed water his valet had left them, foresighted man that he was. Fortunately Vivian hadn't bled much, but enough to tinge the cloth pink as he cleaned her. The lips of her pussy looked swollen and used, her delicate inner thighs were reddened from being wrapped around his body, and there were faint marks on her wrists where she'd pulled at the restraints.

The hazy, sated look in her eyes was that of a woman well pleasured. It was a look that made Gabriel's heart leap in his chest, he'd worried - after - that he'd been too vigorous, but if he had it hadn't mattered. She'd enjoyed it anyway.

"Are you sore, sweet?" he asked, dropping the soiled cloth to the side of the bed and spreading her thighs wider to look, enjoying that she still blushed at being revealed to him.

Fingers pressed against her nether lips and she winced.

"A bit," she admitted, his fingers bringing alive the ache in her muscles, unaccustomed to the use they'd been put to. But she didn't move to resist his touch, her hands laying passively by her head, arms up, and legs still spread to where he had put them. Gabriel couldn't resist gently caressing those sore, sensitive tissues until she gave a little moan as wetness spread across his fingers. "I'll be more gentle tonight."

Vivian blinked, surprised, but too pleasure-lazy to truly show it. "Tonight? Again?"

Laughing, Gabriel crawled back up her body and lay on his side, pulling her into his arms so that her face nuzzled into his chest. Vivian took advantage of the opportunity to wrap her arm around him, the other trapped between their bodies, and rub her cheek against the rough hair of his body. It felt as wonderful as she'd imagined to be held so by him, like this, unlike the other night when he'd kept the bed dressings between their bodies. His heat engulfed her, surrounded her in a cocoon of protection.

"Again... and again and again... as many times I can have you, in as many ways possible, at all hours of the day," Gabriel said, dropping kisses across the top of her head, winding her hair through his fingers. A shiver went through Vivian, her thighs tightening together against the sore ache that was still residing there and Gabriel laughed again. "Sleep sweet. You must be tired after this morning, and you'll need your rest for tonight."

For tonight and all the nights to come. And mornings. Hell, she'd be lucky if he let her out of bed any time in the next week. Idly caressing that soft back, feeling the subtle play of flesh beneath his hands as her breathing deepened, he realized that it had only taken her moments to drift off to sleep.

His wife. At last.

Gabriel's & Vivian's story has evolved and changed in many ways since I first started writing it... this is just another. I had originally intended to continue the story past this point, but when I reached it, I realized I had come to the end. Gabriel and Vivian agreed with me, although rest assured, they live happily (if kinkily) ever after. Thanks for the continual comments and feedback, it really did change the way this story ended up going, as did Gabriel and Vivian themselves... Moving on from here I think I'm going to go a little darker, which is what I had originally intended to do with this story only to be deterred by reader calls for romance and Gabriel and Vivian's own inclinations =) Look for the beginning of my next series, The Wolf, coming soon... and you can always check out my Blog for more information on characters, books and series.
