Chapter 87 Joining The Mile-High Club
Skylar smiled against his lips. She would gladly energize him if only he would allow her to. Lately, they failed to revive the magic they used to share earlier. She didn’t know what went wrong between them, but after the accident, Christian seemed to have changed a little. Maybe she would address the issue after they returned from New York.
He claimed her lips in an intoxicating kiss. It was a slow one, a magical one filled with passionate longing. Both of them desired one another acutely, yet couldn’t consummate their relationship. While Skylar had conquered her battles and accepted her feelings for Christian, he had a different mental struggle to combat!
“Kiss me, Skylar!” His raspy, frustrated growl aroused her, and she fisted her hands into his hair and kissed him back hungrily. Her tongue swirled against his causing a fiery need to course down his body. He groaned and cupped her cheek, angling her head well to dominate the kiss.
His kiss turned hard and demanding when he plunged his tongue aggressively into her mouth. His fingers unbuttoned her jeans and dipped inside, gently easing her legs wide apart.
“I love you so much, Skylar,” he murmured against her lips.
“I love you too, Christian. Let me show you how much.” It was a pleasure he couldn’t ignore. He knew he desired her even more. Skylar had just realized her feelings for him, but he had known his feelings for her all his life. All his dreams and desires were always centered around her. So it was actually frustrating that he couldn’t turn them into reality.
“I too want to show you how much I love you, Skylar. You have no idea how much I’ve missed you. But I’m afraid to make love to you. What if I can’t? My pelvic area is still weak post-surgery!” Skylar stilled at his candid admission! So that was the reason he restrained himself! Why hadn’t she thought of it before?
Christian was shocked at himself. He hadn’t meant to blurt it out to her, but now he couldn’t do a thing. The cat was already out of the bag!
“You have nothing to fear, Christian. We can take it slow. I know your body needs time to recover. If you hadn’t saved me that day, we wouldn’t have known how much we love one another. So, let’s connect as much as we can. Why waste time on speculation? If you can’t, we’ll go at a snail’s pace.” Christian chuckled at her description, a surge of relief pervading his senses. He was glad she understood him so well!
“No, we don’t have to go at a snail’s pace.” Her admission alone had made him rock hard, beyond control. In a split second, he took off her clothes, the urgency to plunge into her tight feminine folds driving him crazy.
His hands roamed all over her naked body while she worked on his shirt. “Can you take this damn thing off?” she groaned with frustration, unable to unbutton his jeans. Christian chuckled, stripping off his jeans at last. When he stripped off completely, Skylar stared at his massive arousal, waiting to plunge deep into her. She had craved this for so long!
She touched his throbbing shaft, but he hissed in response. “Don’t! I can’t hold on much longer.”
His mouth started working on her body while his hands roamed all over her. He flipped her on the bed and hovered over her, kissing, biting, sucking, and marking her everywhere like an uncontrollable Alpha mate. A moan of pleasure escaped her lips as his movements became desperate. His warm mouth devoured her breasts with a hunger she had never experienced before. It caused a throbbing deep inside her and she arched her body to give him more access.
“Touch me, please.” He responded immediately to her urgency, plunging his fingers into her weeping slit. Soon his mouth followed suit, and he hungrily lapped up her sweet nectar.
A gasp of pure pleasure escaped her. Christian forgot all his inhibitions, his fears, and his postoperative limitations. His body was on fire and he needed her. All of her right now! His mouth worked on her urgently while his fingers worked in tandem, thrusting in and out of her with increased rhythm. Skylar’s eyes rolled to the back of her head as an intense fire started building at the pit of her stomach, inching towards her core for an explosive release.
“Don’t stop, please!” She was almost on the brink of an earth-shattering release when he increased his pace.
“Let go, Skylar! Come for me, baby!” he whispered hoarsely. Immediately, her body rocked with an explosive release as she came undone. It was a mind-blowing feeling indeed! Christian lapped up all her nectar and came up to give her a heated kiss.
He eased off her and went to fetch a packet of protection from the pocket of his jeans.
“You came prepared!” She gasped with surprise.
“I always am. I want lots of children with you, but right now, I want to be selfish. For the next two years, at least I want you all to myself. I want us to soak up all the love we can give each other.” He sheathed his throbbing shaft and came over to join her on the bed.
“Part your legs, baby. Now watch me enter you.” Skylar’s breath hitched as she watched him with awe. She shivered when his hard length glided into her slick feminine folds for the first time. A searing pain filled her body and mind, making her close her eyes. Christian stilled, stroking her hair off her face, whispering apologies into her ear.
“Did I hurt you? Do you want me to stop?” he asked her, his eyes wild and distressed, but she shook her head slowly, still with her eyes shut.
“No, please. Stay still for a minute.” Christian watched her battling with the excruciating pain. At that moment, he forgot his own fears. It filled his mind with happiness, a gratifying completeness. The feeling of being embedded deep inside her was so overwhelming it pushed all his inhibitions aside.
At last, she opened her eyes and gazed back at him deliriously. “Make love to me the way you always wanted to.”
He smiled at her tenderly, slowly thrusting deeply inside her. Everything happened like he had always dreamed of. He didn’t have any problems so far! Maybe his fears were indeed psychological!
She reached up and caressed his face with both hands. The overwhelming realization that they were really one filled her senses. Besides the pain, there was joy in their union. This was what they had been waiting for since the day they got married. If the accident hadn’t happened on their wedding day, they would have consummated their relationship on their wedding night itself.
Christian parted her legs wider and rocked into her the way he wanted to. She moved with him as one, experiencing, savoring, and living every stroke, every sensation. A deep throaty groan escaped him as he slowly built up his pace, riding her faster and deeper. He forgot himself totally as thrust roughly inside her, the pleasure deepening, soaring with every passionate stroke of his.
He captured her lips in a wild kiss, thrusting his tongue into her mouth. At that moment, with his tongue and member working in sync, thrusting in and out of her, Skylar cried out his name as her body convulsed around him.
Her climax aroused him more, and he quickened his pace, slamming inside her with renewed vigor. Before she could catch her breath, she felt his explosive release as he climaxed inside her.
Fatigue washed over him, and he collapsed heavily on her with a deep sigh. Skylar stroked his hair, comforting him, and helping him catch his breath.
He looked down at her, his hair tousled, his eyes delirious and heavy-lidded, yet he looked blissfully happy, satiated. It tugged at her heartstrings and she held him against her heart.
“That was so beautiful, Christian! I now know why it’s called ‘throes of ecstasy’!” she whispered, her eyes glazed with raw emotions.
“Yes. I’m so glad I could satisfy you.” He helped her wear her clothes and then put on his. It was then they realized what they had done. They consummated their marriage on a flight!
“Welcome to the mile-high club, Mrs. St. James!” he said with a wink. Skylar chuckled and rolled off the bed.
“I’m hungry now. Feed me something or you won’t get another round.” Christian chuckled and followed her.
“So, are you promising me another round afterward?” he teased her.
“Not here. We’ll reach in another hour. So, where will we stay?” The flight attendant arrived with a tray laden with food. They thanked her and tucked in hungrily.
“At my house with Seb and Erica. She’s three weeks pregnant and critical. Seb informed me in the morning.” Skylar gasped with shock, unaware of the news.
“Oh, why didn’t you tell me earlier? I could have called her to take an update.”
“She’s admitted to Bellevue Hospital. So she wouldn’t have been able to take your call.”
“Is she that serious?”
Christian nodded, and they discussed more about Erica’s pregnancy. After two hours, they reached New York.
“We’ll dump the luggage and head for the hospital first. Later, you can meet your friends. Will that be fine with you?” asked Christian as they climbed into a cab.
“Sure.” Skylar had a feeling their stay here would stretch a little more than they had anticipated.
