A tender amusement gleamed in Gavriel's eyes at Evie's statement before a quiet laughter escaped from his mouth, and he kissed her deeply, burying the low, and gravelly sounds in her mouth. He could not help himself as he thought of how adorable his wife was acting. There was no way on earth that he would ever tire of this woman!

He could not even blame her of thinking that way. Because it finally occurred to him as well that they do somewhat have a history of being interrupted whenever they are engaged in or about to engage in something intimate.

"Don't worry, my love," he assured her, "if anyone dares to interrupt us again, I'll kill him." A wicked and dangerous gleam flared in his eyes that spoke of nothing but real threat. And then he smiled, a smile that nearly made her heart stop. His gaze sensuously gliding from her face to every curve of her body as he looked at her, seeming to worship the very sight of her. Due to her hands being pinned above her head, Evie's breasts were lifted and completely exposed. Her pink nipples were taut and wet and erotic. Gavriel growled softly as he stared at the buds that were peaking due to his stimulation as well as the cool air.

"Nothing can interrupt us anymore, I swear. No matter what happens, even if another war broke out right now, I'm still taking you tonight." He declared with a more than confident grin and Evie could only hold her breath. She was at the peak of her anticipation now.

"So, relax my love. Don't worry about anything else and just let me love you." He whispered before he planted butterfly kisses all over her milky skin. The fire that they started in the garden and was forcefully extinguished is now back at full force once again. And in the blazing moments that followed, Evie let herself surrender her body and soul fully to him, letting the pleasure that he aroused come flooding over her until her senses malfunctioned and all she could feel, hear and taste was him and the unbearable pleasure and sensations he was unleashing on her.

He coaxed and explored her body until she was utterly helpless and so soaking wet. When Gavriel slipped his fingers inside her, it slid easily into her, and Evie's insides eagerly clamped down on it. Her responsiveness elicited an even more wicked smile on Gavriel's lips. He slid another finger, spreading her, as his thumb playfully teased her taut bud and all her sensitive spots. He already knew where to find her sweet spots and it would be impossible for him to ever forget.

"Please… Gavriel," she said between her moans, "I can't wait any more."

"Not yet, my love. Come for me first," his whispers came out hot and heavy and his mouth fell onto and sucked at her breast, stoking the heat in her to go even higher. His rhythm quickening inside her until Evie was moaning wildly, her head trashing from side to side. Her heartbeat sounded so loud in her ears. Her toes were curling from the pleasure and wildness he had aroused.

When her hips began to move itself against his hand, Gavriel knew she was already very close. He kissed her ravenously all the while whispering her to come for him, whispering her name, with a tone so hoarse and gravelly and excessively seductive.

Lost to shame, Evie's body arched sharply against him, and a cry was torn from her mouth. Pleasure seized her so suddenly and her body then spasmed and shuddered violently in Gavriel's protective arms.

Gavriel watched as Evie rise up to the heights of pleasure and also as she slowly calmed down after the explosive high that she had reached. He thought to himself that he would absolutely never tire of watching her drown in pleasure, as it aroused him to an excruciating degree. And the look on her face as she helplessly relaxed as the blissful shudders faded was, for Gavriel, such a gratifying sight to behold. He could honestly say that he could be as gratified or even more so, when she reached her high rather than he did. She was such a breathtakingly beautiful mess as she was spread naked and languid beneath him. This is a real goddess. And this goddess fully belonged to him alone. And now… he could no longer wait.

His hand finally let go of her wrists and they travelled determinedly down to her knees. She felt his strong and powerful hands firmly grasp her knees and pushed her leg open further before settling himself comfortably between her widespread thighs. Evie could only languidly lift her head slightly and peek at him kneeling there in anticipation, eyes glittering intensely as he stared at her.

"Oh Evie, my love… I'm finally… going to take you," his voice was hot and unsteady. He had hungered for her for too long. Or perhaps, it was not really that long a time… but to him, it might as well be an eternity of waiting – that was what it felt like. He could hardly believe that this day is finally going to happen. Oh gods, it is finally going to happen, at long last… she is finally going to be his completely! She would officially be his woman!

Gavriel's heartbeat raced uncontrollably. He was so hot… he had never felt this hot in his entire life. My god… he groaned… everything felt so surreal…

"Evie…" he uttered her name as his hardness settled at the entrance of her wet mound, "I'm… putting it in… tell me if it hurts, okay?"

"Evie nodded, swallowing. She lifted her weakened hands to touch his chest, but Gavriel caught them, and he pinned them above her head again.

Gavriel had to murmur to himself to be patient and be gentle despite the primal need that was overpowering him. Entwining her fingers with his, Gavriel slowly and gently pushed himself into her wet entrance.
