I groan. “I don’t have a condom.”
She lifts up. “I don’t want anything between us.”
I let my head fall back with a groan. Just the thought of being inside her with nothing between us sounds like heaven to me. “I want that too.”
She raises up and positions me at her entrance. Slowly, she lowers herself on me, inch by inch, and she grunts the deeper I go. She’s so tight it takes everything inside me to not to drive inside her.
Her hands go to my chest as she lowers herself on me. Maya’s head is thrown back, her eyes clenched shut. “Look at me, baby. Eyes on me.”
She tilts her head forward to look at me. I brush the hair away from her face. “You okay?”
She smiles at me as she slides the rest of the way down my length. “Yes,” she moans with a full body tremble.
I give her time to adjust. She rotates her hips, grinding into me.
My hands go to her hips, and I help guide her. She groans as I pump into her. “Fuck, you feel so good, Maya.”
I’m going to come. My brow is sweating, my muscles pulled taut, and no matter how hard I try to hold back, it’s going to happen. I reach between us and press my fingers to her swollen nub. Her hips jerk erratically. “Oh God, I’m close… I’m…”
She’s grinding into me, and I can’t take it. I flip her to her back, and she gasps as I lift her leg over my shoulder and pummel deep inside her. Her nails are digging into my shoulders, but I ignore the pain and drive into her. I lift her hips up, and as soon as I hit her G-spot, she grips me like a vise as the climax hits her hard and fast.
A guttural groan erupts from inside me, and I bury my face in her neck as I paint her insides with my release.
We’re both breathing hard, and she’s smiling as she looks up at me. “Wow.”
I reluctantly pull out of her and lie down, cuddling her against me. “I know, baby. It’s the same for me. Are you okay, Maya?”
She burrows into me. “You’re safe, you’re here with me… I’m more than okay.”
I yawn, and she raises up to look at me. “Get some sleep, Legend. Have you slept at all?”
I shake my head, and she gasps. “Go to sleep, rest.”
I circle my arms around her and lock my hands at her back. “Don’t leave me, Maya. I can’t sleep if you do. Promise you’ll stay here with me.”
Her wide eyes are glued to my face. “I promise. I won’t leave you.”
I kiss her and then rest my head against hers. I know she promised me she wouldn’t leave me, but I don’t let sleep take me until I feel her melt into me and I hear her soft snores. I don’t loosen my hold, though. I won’t tonight… and I probably won’t ever. She’s mine now, and I’m going to do whatever I need to do to keep her.

MAYA
I wake up, and it feels like I’m lying against a furnace.
I don’t dare move. I went to the bathroom last night, and Legend woke up, calling my name. As soon as I got into bed, he took me again.
Any time I made a move, he would wake up, so I lie here stiffly wondering what the new day is going to bring.
I need to go to my house and see how bad the damage is. I need to grab my computer, find a new place to live, and probably call my agent to ask for another small extension. But I don’t dare move. All of that can wait. I’m not sure how long I’ll have the right to lie in Legend’s arms, so I’m going to take full advantage.
There’s a phone ringing, and it takes me a second to realize it’s my brother’s ringtone. Legend groans next to me and points to the corner of the room. “It’s in the bag.”
I disentangle myself from him and then jump out of bed naked and run to answer it. I unzip the bag and am surprised to find my laptop in there too. Ignoring it for now, I grab the phone. “Hello. Maverick, is that you?”
“Maya, are you okay? I just heard. I’m coming home—”
I walk back to the bed and sit down on the edge of it. “I’m fine, bub. I promise, I’m okay. You don’t have to come home.” Why do I feel so guilty? I would love to see him, but the first thought I had is that he’ll come home and Legend will leave, and I don’t want this to end.
The bed shifts, and Legend leans up behind me, kissing my shoulder. I jerk and look at him in surprise. Is he really kissing me while I’m talking to my brother? He just smiles at me. “Let me talk to Maverick.”
