“Oh God, Roarke, I’m so close!”
She climaxes with a sob, her pussy clamping tightly around my cock, triggering my own release. I thrust twice into her before stilling as I flood her with my cum, grunting heavily into her hair as she milks me of every drop, her pussy clenching around my cock until I’ve poured everything into her.
“I love you,” I say into her hair, my breathing labored. “So much. More than my heart can take!”
Elena doesn’t respond right away, her breathing as heavy as mine as she turns around to face me. “I thought you’d be bored with me,” she says, those beautiful blue-green eyes searching mine. “I’ve read that love is a fleeting emotion, andfive years ago, I was convinced that you would wake up one day and realize how boring your life is with me. You don’t even get to do the exciting stuff anymore, working behind a desk all day.”
My brow arches at her words. “And you think that’s because of you?”
“Isn’t it?” she challenges.
I laugh, cupping her chin and brushing my lips along with hers. “You’re not wrong, but not right altogether. You think I miss the adrenaline-infusing stuff?” I laugh when she shrugs. “Well then, let me put your mind at ease. I don’t. Before you, I chased the rush because that’s all I had, but then you came along, and we had the boys. I don’t need to toss myself into dangerous situations to feel something anymore. I’ve found my fulfillment in you and our boys, Elena. You’re all the adrenaline I need to get through life.”
I brush away a tear that falls down her cheeks. “Besides, I know where to go if I ever miss getting shot at. Matteo has me covered in that area.”
It does my heart good to see her smile, laughing when she dives into my arms, burrowing into my neck. “Now I understand why all those men went to war and destroyed cities for the women they loved.”
I feel her tears on my skin. “I love you, Roarke. More than my heart can take.”
“Then we’re even.”
