Amara – Reunion

Author's note: this is from Seraphina's point of view

- - -

The sun was setting, and the cart with food that Maria brought earlier that day was full of empty dishes.

Duke was lying on the bed, running his fingers through my hair, and I was sprawled on top of him.

We were both sweaty after an afternoon of lovemaking which we stopped only once to eat and shower, and that ended up with us making love again.

The whole day was amazing, and I hoped it will never end.

We were lying in silence, feeling each other and I relished the sensation of his skin against mine. It felt like this was the way we were supposed to be. Just the two of us. Naked.

I took a deep breath, inhaling the scent of pine trees mixed with the ocean and I couldn't believe that I just barely picked up the sweat. How can a man smell so good?

"Duke…", I called lazily.

"Hmm?"

"How do I smell to you?"

He craned his neck to look at me. "Smell?"

"Yes. You see…", I thought how it must sound ridiculous. I probably smell of whatever perfume I'm wearing and right now it's Chanel-sweat edition. "Nothing."

"No, no. Please, continue.", he urged me.

His eager expression dissolved my reluctance and I spoke. 

"I think that I can identify your scent. No matter where we are, I know when you are nearby. There is this scent that only you have. Even now. Do you think I'm crazy?"

I thought that he will tease me, or think that I'm making it up, but he looked at me seriously with a small smile on his delicious lips. "How do I smell?"

"Like pine trees on a sunny day, and there is a dash of the ocean. When I close my eyes and take a deep breath, it's almost like I'm on the beach surrounded by pine trees."

"You must have a good sense of smell."

I shook my head. "Not at all. I can't smell anyone else, only you. You are special."

Duke's smile widened. He obviously liked that I said he is special.

"Jasmine, Japanese wisteria, rain."

I didn't get it. "What?"

He inched closer, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath. "Mostly jasmine, a bit of Japanese wisteria, and there is a hint of rain. When I close my eyes, it's almost like I'm among jasmine bushes under the Japanese wisteria, after the rain."

I wanted to confirm. "Is that how I smell to you?"

Duke nodded in confirmation. "On the first day I met you, the scent of jasmine hit me, and I followed it to you."

"I thought that you came to my desk because the seat was empty."

Duke shook his head. "I followed the scent as possessed and when our eyes met, I don't remember if there were any other people present, or empty seats. If someone was sitting next to you, I would kick him out."

I stifled a laugh while imagining Duke kicking a person so that he can sit next to me. Somehow, I could imagine that happening.

Duke looked at me and smiled dreamily. "I think that we are destined to be together. From the day we met, no other woman ever entered my eyes or my heart. It was always only you."

And there he was again, melting me into mush with his sweet words.

I moved to kiss him, and he returned my kisses eagerly, the lovey-dovey mood turning hot and steamy within a second.

"I can't get enough of you.", I spoke into his lips.

He smiled. "I'm glad to hear that. Because I feel the same about you."

Duke's arms moved around me, and he moved in such a way that I ended up completely on top of him.

That gave me an idea.

We made love many times, but he was always in charge. I wanted to try taking the lead this time.

I pushed myself into a seated position, straddling him.

Duke caressed my thighs as his hot gaze traveled over my body, leaving scorching marks behind.

I could feel his impatience and I knew that if I delay it much longer, he will flip me on my back.

I lifted myself slightly and he stared at me unblinkingly as I held his erection and positioned him at my entrance. And then I went down slowly, savoring every glorious inch of him while confirming that I can't get enough of Duke. It's never enough.

This was too addictive. Without him inside me and all around me, I felt like a huge chunk of me was missing. Duke was a part of me, the two of us made a whole.

Duke held my hips and guided my movements until I got it right.

His hands roamed from my breasts to my hips, caressing, pinching, and teasing, and I focused on small circular movements that became bolder every time I felt him deep inside me.

I was pleased that I'm in control, but it didn't take long before Duke started moving and thrusting from below.

He grabbed my buttocks and lifted me slightly, and then he pounded himself with a blissful grin on his face.

I wanted to be in charge, but even with me on top, he took over the lead.

He is such a control freak. My control freak.

Through my haze, I realized he was enjoying the sight of my breasts that were bouncing under his merciless attacks.

The wonderful friction made me throw my head back and cry to the heavens as came violently and I felt him throb as he filled me with his seed, just as I collapsed on top of him.

That was mind-blowing, and I was sated, yet at the same time, I wished for more.

"It will be difficult to return home…", I shared my thoughts while drawing small circles with my finger on his shoulder.

I didn't want to part from Duke. I wanted to stay like this, forever, just the two of us.

"Then don't go.", Duke said. "Or take me with you."

I was not sure if he was serious. "You would leave all what you have in London and come with me?"

Duke shrugged. "I already told you that I have no problems leeching off you. Besides, if I move, that doesn't mean I will just abandon things here to rot. Eclipse can easily open offices wherever I am, and pretty much everything can be done online. What's mine is yours and what's yours is mine. You are my girlfriend, my love… and soon, I hope, my wife."

"A wife?"

Duke's eyes widened in panic, and he started talking quickly. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that. I mean… It's not that I'm not thinking about it, but… not like this. I will get you a ring and flowers and make it romantic, and get on my knee, and…"

I burst into giggles. How can such a handsome man be so adorably dorky when we are completely naked, and he is still inside me?

Duke pouted. "Don't laugh, Serina. I'm serious."

I knew that he was serious, but I had to tease him a bit.

"Now I don't know if you proposed marriage or not. Are your intentions with me honorable Mr. Orsini, or are you just playing?"

Duke frowned as his hand moved lower, and he slapped my buttock.

It was not painful, but it caught me by surprise, and I jolted. That movement made me slide up and down his shaft and I gasped.

"If you thought of punishing me, that achieved the opposite.", I said smugly.

Duke cocked his handsome eyebrow at me. "So, you like spanking or…?"

He stopped talking when I rotated my hips slightly.

"I don't know what I like.", I said breathily as familiar arousal overtook my senses. "I guess we will need to try all kinds of things so that I can pick my favorites."

In one swift move, Duke rolled us over, ending up on top of me, and I could feel him inside me, fully erect, ready for another round.

"Alright…", his smile told me that he accepted the challenge. "Out of the things we did so far, which ones are your favorites?"

"I'm not sure.", I said honestly. "Everything was wonderful."

I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him lower.

"I love it all… ", I spoke into his lips, "I love you, Mateo…"

Duke smiled into the kiss. We both did.

His hips moved and I wondered if there is such a thing as too much lovemaking. I knew that with my physique I can go for quite some time, and I was definitely not complaining but... doesn't he get tired?
