that escaped her lit up her entire face.

“You’re beautiful, darling.” I pulled her close to

me, pressing a soft kiss to her forehead. “I’m so fucking proud of you.”

She kissed me, hard but quick. “Thank you.”

The basketball arena was packed, all here to

celebrate the PhD and master level students. Davis and Aife sat together, part of the social work program. The rest of us watched and probably cheered too loudly as their names were called. I couldn’t help it; that was my girl.

The ceremony was surprisingly quick and then we

were back at my place—alone. The others knew I’d planned something, and nerves wracked my body as Aife left the bathroom.

Her dress flared as she walked, hooking an arm

around my neck as she sat on my lap. Her breathing evened, matching mine. My heart pounded though, rapid and hard against my chest.

“You good?” Her tone was worried, her eyes

catching on my face.

“I am. I’m so proud of you, Aife.” I cupped her

face. “I love you.”

She stilled for half a second before our lips

connected, tongues meeting in an intricate routine. Her hands landed in my hair, pulling me closer. I kissed her back fiercely, pouring every once of love into my lips before picking her up and walking us to the balcony.

Aife pulled back, chest heaving as she took in the

surroundings of my isolated balcony. “I love you, Talon.” Her eyes connected with mine. “You’re stuck with me.”

“Nowhere else I’d rather be.” I intended to show her

just that, trailing kisses down her neck.

Aife moaned, her hips already working against

mine. She pulled my shirt off, burying her face in my neck and sucking hard. My hands tangled in her hair as my head eased back. I gathered her dress in my hands and tossed it aside. She pushed me down on one of the chairs so I was reclining, losing her undergarments on the way. Her mouth met mine before she finally moved to sit on my face.

I moaned deeply against her slick pussy, first taking

a second to just breathe her in. Aife wasn’t patient though and began to grind her hips, seeking friction. I sucked her clit as I helped her find her rhythm. My tongue delved deep into her wet cunt as I ate, dining like she was my final meal. My name left her lips like a prayer, content and satisfied.

My cock strained against my pants as I ate, and I

gripped it through my pants. Aife seemed to notice as she leaned back, palms landing on my chest as she thrust against my tongue. She came suddenly, all over my face.
