Chapter 106 - 108
Kelsey POV
His name pours from Avara’s lips, a cry of strained passion and raw desperation, resonating in every octave with an intensity that shakes the air. It is outmatched by Colton’s guttural cry that bridges plea and longing, a symphony of surrender bound in the aching notes of his yearning and the feverish ferocity of his need.
No matter what I do, I can’t shut out a sound with my hands pressed to my ears as the bed nearly breaks with me beneath it. I make the mistake of peeking to see if it’s almost over, only to see his teeth clamped on his lower lip, holding onto a fistful of her hair with his dick in his mouth—which her mouth is not big enough to hold all of that.
With the stamina of a stallion, suffocating in silence until everything comes to a climatic end. And with some surprisingly gentle aftercare that seems jarring to the almost barbaric penetration I bore witness to.
His voice is a soft murmur against the stillness of the room, threading through the quiet like a confession. "I hope I didn’t hurt you," he whispers, his fingers grazing her bare back in languid, tender circles, a silent apology in every motion. "I never wanted to hurt you."
Her breath hitches, and her voice carries the weight of disbelief. "I’m... in shock. I never knew you felt so much for me."
"There’s so much you don’t know," he says, his tone dipping into a depth that feels almost infinite. "Including how I feel about you. It’s a depth not even the universe can measure."
Avara shifts, lifting herself so her face hovers just above his, her eyes searching his for truths she didn’t dare imagine before. "If you felt that way... why did you push me toward someone else?"
His hand stills on her back. "Your father would have never allowed it—and honestly, I wasn’t sure if you would want me either. So I chose the next best thing... to have you in my life, even from a distance. It was enough, or so I thought."
She lowers her head onto his hand, purposefully intertwining her fingers with the same hand adorned with his wedding ring. The silence between them swells with the unsaid. I go back down and wait...it’s when I hear her stifled moans as she struggles out of the bed that I’m alerted that he’s asleep. I crawl back out, grabbing her underwear on my way up before I toss it at her as we creep back out of the bedroom.
