Chapter 52 WHAT ARE WE?
We moved through the calm sea, completely surrendering to each other. Every touch led us to intimate and pleasurable moments. My body was exhausted and satiated by the intense sex and multiple orgasms. I felt like I could split in half from so much pleasure.
On my knees on the bench, with my back to him, I felt Patrick passing ice over my neck, letting the cold liquid trickle down my back to my buttocks, where he bit eagerly. I let out a moan of ecstasy from the new sensation. Every moment with him was unique, and when his warm lips met my chilled skin, my body quivered with pleasure.
When he plunged into me, I gasped and threw my head back, seeking his mouth for a deep kiss. Patrick increased the pace of his thrusts, and I moaned loudly as he squeezed my breasts with desire. His thrusts became more rhythmic and intense, and I braced my arms on the bench, pushing my hips back and grinding against his wet, pleasurable length.
“Lis, you're driving me crazy!”Patrick growled, breathless. “What a beautiful sight.”
I smiled, encouraged by his praise, and after pausing briefly, I thrust back again, digging my nails into my buttocks. He held my hips in delight, going deeper, more intense, more pleasurable, and more thrilling!
“Patrick, I'm going to…” I bit my lips, moaning hoarsely.
“Yes, give in to me,” he whispered, thrusting a few more times until we reached our climax.
I went completely limp, feeling sleep overcome me. Smiling proudly, Patrick picked me up in his arms and carried me into the cabin. Gently, he laid me on the bed and grabbed a cloth to carefully clean my body, attentive to every detail.
“You don't have to do this.” I said it sleepily, embarrassed by being cared for in this way.
“I'd never miss the opportunity to put my hands on you, Miss,” he smiled mischievously, placing a kiss on my forehead. “Rest a little; I'll start heading back with the boat.”
“I don't want this day to end.” I whispered, almost asleep, just in time to hear him say,
“I wish none of this would end.”
His steps echoed away, and I drifted into a deep sleep, completely exhausted.
POV: PATRICK
Driving the boat back, I sighed happily. Elisabeth was exactly as I imagined: an insatiable woman with restrained desires. I didn't expect so much pleasure from her.
“What a woman.” I bit my lips, recalling the most stunning sight of her buttocks meeting my intimacy minutes ago.
For years, I hadn't found reasons to move forward. Greg was right about getting involved. I found myself making plans with her. The truth is, I didn't just want Elisabeth to take over my legacy and become a great writer. I needed to be honest with myself. I always wanted more from her!
Furthermore, I longed to walk through the streets holding hands, to have her warm body in my bed every night, and to protect her from all the harm life had caused her. Also, I wanted her in every way, and that could be a big problem. In the end, I might hurt her in ways I never intended.
The sunset painted the sky, and I decided to call her to enjoy it with me. Today, there would be no past or difficulties, just her and me until our bodies begged for rest.
I went down and stopped at the door, admiring her perfect curves. Lis was sleeping completely naked, clutching a thin sheet, her face serene and relaxed, and her lips red and slightly swollen. It was almost torture to stay away from her. I smiled, approaching her. I placed a kiss on her forehead while caressing her silky black hair.
“Wake up, my beautiful; I have a surprise for you...” I whispered in her ear.
Groggy, Elisabeth stretched, pouting:
“Five more minutes,” she replied sleepily.
I laughed at her laziness and gently pulled her up.
“Come on, or you'll miss the most beautiful view we can behold in this life.” I kissed her mouth softly, tracing the outline of her face with my fingertips. “I'll carry you.”
I picked her up and carried her upstairs. We sat at the edge of the boat, facing the sea. The sun was slowly bidding the day farewell, painting the sky with shades of orange, pink, and gold, reflecting its soft colors on the blue waters of the sea. The waves danced gently, as if keeping time with the tranquil melody of the evening. A light breeze blew, carrying the salty scent of the ocean and the soft sound of seagulls in the distance.
As the sun approached the horizon, its golden light intensified, creating a breathtaking scene. The sun's rays seemed to gently caress the waves, transforming the water into a shimmering mirror that reflected all the beauty of the sky.
“What a magnificent view,” she said, resting her head on my chest.
I wrapped my arms around her, pulling her closer and lifting her chin to look at me.
“You are magnificent, Elisabeth.”I brushed my lips against hers, and she smiled. “Will you be my girlfriend?”
In shock, she furrowed her brow, confused. I pulled a small box from my pants pocket and opened it in front of her.
“Patrick, are you crazy? We just had our first time together,” Lis replied, blushing.
Laughing, I took her hands, kissing their backs. Provocatively, I licked the finger where the ring should slide and firmly made my proposal.
“As far as I remember, we did it more than once...” I joked, getting a playful slap on the shoulder. “I told you I'd propose properly. Don't deny what we both want... And I don't want to hear that we're nothing when we want to be everything to each other!”
“Patrick... This is moving too fast. There are things about me you still don't know...” Elisabeth sighed. “And I'm afraid you won't accept me once you do.”
“I also have a past that's not easy...” I said, drawing her attention. “Of course I'm afraid you'll hate me and walk away because of it, Elisabeth. We can't change what we've been through, but we can create new memories, good ones, like you on your back or on my lap.”
“Do you ever talk seriously?” Lis rolled her eyes but smiled, more relaxed. “You pervert.”
“For you.” I caressed her neck, biting her lips. “Is there anything else that's bothering you?”
“Well... You're known for dating multiple women. I have to admit I don't compare to the models I've seen you with.” Biting her lip, Elisabeth turned to the horizon. “I'm not good at relationships. I don't want to get hurt again.”
