Chapter 139 Taking the next step
Logan’s lips were hot and hungry as he kissed her. Serena moaned into the kiss, wrapping her arms around Logan’s neck, pulling him down on top of her. Her entire body hummed with desire and unfulfilled need. She’d wanted to be closer to him for a while, and he’d set up the perfect scenario. Logan’s weight on her felt good. Something she’d missed since their first night together, but she hadn’t even known she missed it until that moment. He kissed and nipped at her neck and throat. Serena’s head fell back in the grass. She moaned again as he kissed her breasts and then moved back up to her lips. She wrapped her legs around his waist, urging him to take her completely. Logan gave a pleased grunt and sank down to Serena. Breaking their kiss, Serena cried out in pleasure. She arched her back off the damp grass, sliding their naked bodies together. Logan grabbed her wrists, pinning her arms into the grass as he kissed at her neck and shoulder. Serena rolled her hips up, increasing the speed of the motions that brought them together. Every fiber of her body flooded with pleasure. She surrendered to him, and he took her to pleasurable heights she had never reached before!
With a heavy sigh, Logan collapsed on top of Serena. She cradled his head against her breast, running her fingers through his hair. “You were right,” Serena muttered. “Better not to be intoxicated.” Logan chuckled. Slowly, he got to his feet and helped Serena up. He pulled her against him and she sighed, wrapping her arms around his neck. The feeling or bare skin on bare skin tickled her wolfish instincts. She kissed Logan’s shoulder and he kissed the side of her head. Without a word, Logan pulled her in the direction of the back door to his house. “What are you doing?” Serena asked him. Logan looked over his shoulder at her and smirked.
“The night is young, yet,” he teased. “It occurred to me that we‘ve never had a bed before” Serena’s cheeks flushed in the darkness. She looked away from Logan as he laughed at her “What about your mother?” Serena asked when Logan quietly let them into the house. Logan shrugged. “We could go back to your place with the kids instead,” he said. Serena shook her head,
“I need to call Dana and let her know I’ll be out late,” she hissed. Logan hadn’t stopped. He was pulling her through the kitchen, down the hall, towards the stairs. “I already told her you’d be gone all night,” Logan assured. Serena raised an eyebrow
at the back of his head. “What?” she asked in a harsh whisper. Logan chuckled again. “I had plans for tonight,” he said. “And you obviously did too.” Serena rolled her eyes as they went up the stairs. She hadn’t really spent much time in Logan’s room before, even when she was staying there temporarily. His bed was far more comfortable than hers.
Logan crawled across the bed towards her, a hungry, predatory smirk on his lips. Serena’s stomach twisted. It was hard to resist someone who desired her so strongly. It made her feel special.
Logan wrapped an arm around her waist as Serena leaned back on the pillows. He kissed her lips again. Serena smiled against his lips. She nipped at his lower lip, causing him to grunt in surprise and pleasure. “Did you forget, I like control too?” she teased. She pushed at Logan’s chest, forcing him onto his back. Logan grinned as she straddled him. He held her hips in his hands. Serena leaned forward, kissing his lips as he positioned her to slide onto him. She moaned, moving her knees to take control of the pace and movement. Logan put a hand on the small of her back and the other on the back of her neck, keeping her body pressed against his chest. It had been a long time coming, but Serena was glad she had decided it was time to take things to the next step. After an exhaustive night of lovemaking, Serena blissfully curled up in Logan’s arms, pressing her head against his chest. She listened to the steady thump of his heart as she drifted to sleep. Ticklish kisses against her neck and face woke Serena up. Giggling and groaning, she turned away from Logan. She grabbed the comforter
and pulled it over her head, trying to hide her eyes from the bright sunlight shining through Logan’s windows. “Time to get up,” Logan told her. “Why?” she groaned. “Well, we still have a day of the fall festival to enjoy with the kids,” Logan reminded her. Serena chuckled, pushing the blanket off her head. She turned on her side, looking at Logan. He was propped up on his elbow, the blankets hanging loosely around his hips. Serena bit her lower lip and looked him up and down. “Do we have to go right now?” she asked. Logan chuckled. He put a hand on the side of her face and slipped closer to her. “I think we can spare a few minutes,” he said, licking his lips and bouncing his eyebrows. Serena slipped her leg over Logan’s hip and tightened her knee to pull him closer. He gave a pleased grunt and kissed her.
She didn’t want to get out of bed. It had been the first time since the twins were born that she’d had a night completely to herself. She knew she had to get back to them, but she wanted to enjoy every moment of her time alone with Logan. Up until the night before, she had felt like their relationship was incomplete. He was courting her, taking her on dates, and being romantic. He was spending time with the kids and bonding with them. But most of their relationship had been about the kids. Even on their dates, they talked about the future and the kids. It was the first time that Logan and Serena had been truly alone together and been able to focus on their relationship with each other, not the relationship with the kids and the family “Umm…I sort of left my clothes out in the woods,” Serena laughed when she got up. Logan chuckled. He was already dressed. “You can barrow some of mine for the time being,” he offered. Serena shrugged. “I guess I don’t really have a choice,” she laughed. Logan tossed her a plain t-shirt and a pair of sweatpants. Serena put them on, pulling the drawstring on the sweatpants as tight as she could. Logan slipped his arms around her waist. “You‘re still beautiful,” he told her, kissing her on the forehead. Serena giggled. “Thank you, for pushing me last night,” Serena said. Logan shrugged. “All good things are worth the wait,” he said. “But I think at some point, waiting is just boring.” Serena smiled at him. “Well, I guess we should get back to the kids,” Serena said. “I
should call Dana and see how things are at the house.” “Everything is fine,” Logan assured. “I texted her already.” “You really took care of everything,” she told him, her voice impressed. Logan nodded.
“I told you I wanted this weekend to be special for you and for the twins,” he reminded her. Serena nodded. She was really impressed with the initiative that Logan had taken. Not just with the kids, but with making sure Serena could step away for a night and not have to worry about anything. “I think it was special for you too, and for us,” she pointed out. Logan nodded. “Absolutely,” he said.
“I should really get home and shower before we take the kids out again,” Serena said. Logan nodded.
“I’ll clean up here and meet you guys out there,” Logan offered. Serena nodded. She kissed him quickly headed out of his house. The sun had risen, but it was still early. The whole walk home, Serena kept smiling giddily. She had a bouncy skip in her step. She was glad that Logan had talked her out
of drinking. Being fully in her body, in the moment, present with him completely, she thought it was a much better experience then their first time. She could remember everything, the way his lips felt, his skin and hands on her. The closeness that it had created between them. Logan was her mate, and even though they weren’t mated in the ceremonial sense, yet, Serena felt like they were emotionally and physically.
Serena sighed to herself, the smile on her face permanently attached. She slipped through the front door quietly, tiptoeing up the stairs. First, she peaked into the twins’ rooms to make sure they were asleep. They both slept deeply and soundly. Then, she got herself a fresh outfit and hopped in the shower.’
She didn’t want to wash Logan’s scent off of her, but now that they had taken the next step, she was sure she would have it on her again.
