I held her tightly for a long time. Hot water cascaded over us in a gentle flow. Annie continued to cry, but it wasn’t the heart-wrenching wailing that it had been on the beach. I had no idea what that bastard had done to her. She hadn’t told me specifics because she said she wasn’t ready to relive it. I now knew that whatever she’d experienced had been pretty fucking bad.
When the water started to cool and the storm of grief and horror had passed, I dried Annie carefully and took her to bed. She’d pulled me down to press her into the mattress and kissed me like she was starving for my touch.
“Dominic,” she whimpered as I kissed my way down her neck to lick a path down the center of her chest. “Oh, God! What are you doing?”
I continued until I got to her mound. Then I took a long, slow lick from her opening to her clit. Annie screamed, her body convulsing off the bed. I had to fight to hold onto her. She was always like this when I ate her out. Today seemed doubly so. She was wound so tight if she didn’t release all that emotion inside her, she’d shatter.
She wrapped her legs around my head to hold me to her. She shimmied over my mouth until she got friction where she needed it, then rode my face with quick snaps of her hips. Annie would never cease to amaze me how she embraced sex as easily as she had, especially given everything she’d gone through. I thought she used it as an outlet because of the pleasure the desperation brought her. It was something we’d have to work on, but we would do it together.
“Mmm…” I hummed against her clit before flicking it with my tongue over and over. Annie’s breathing came deep and fast and her body tensed around me.
Before she could come, I shoved her legs apart and crawled up her body. She sobbed in despair as she reached for me, pulling me to her once again.
“Please don’t leave me like this, Dom. Please.”
“You know I’d never do that, baby. I’ve got you.” I guided my cock to her entrance. She was wet and slick, her folds swollen and hot. I slid inside her with ease.
She closed her eyes tight and let out a long, shuddering breath. “Oh God,” she moaned. It was the tone of complete satisfaction. I was giving her what she wanted and she responded beautifully.
I kissed her, thrusting my tongue deep into her mouth. I moved in her, the delicious way her pussy tightened around me testing my control. She was tight and hot, clenching around me in a way that threatened to make me come before I was ready. I wanted to take it slow, give her the time she needed, but Annie had other ideas.
She immediately began to rock against me, meeting each of my thrusts with thrusts of her own. Soon enough, we were in perfect sync. The sounds of pleasure we both made became louder as my pace quickened. I was just as affected as she was, completely lost in the beautiful, courageous woman in my arms.
Annie cried out as she climaxed first, her body rigid beneath mine as she quivered and gasped for air. I waited until she’d ridden out the orgasm as far as she could and started to float back to earth before I followed her over the edge. I came inside her with a groan that rumbled through my chest.
Breathing hard, sweat beading over my skin, I collapsed on top of Annie, wrapping my arms tightly around her and rolling us to our sides. Sweat coated our bodies, cooling us as the warm, humid night air filtered through the open window to dry our skin as we recovered.
I held her close till she fell into a restless sleep. In the morning, we would deal with the aftermath of the fight. I’d check in with Rocket in a few minutes, but all I wanted was to hold my girl. Annie was mine. Forever. Mine. Rocket would let me know if there was anything that needed my immediate attention. He saw what happened and knew I’d need some time to take care of Annie. I had her with me, wrapped safely in my arms. Tomorrow, we’d head back home. Once I had her safely locked behind the walls of our compound, I’d breathe easier. I wanted Annie locked away and away from the reach of anyone or anything that meant her harm.
For now, though, we both needed rest. I had her with me. She was safe. In my arms, and that was all that mattered.
Epilogue
Dom
By the time I got Annie back home the next morning, Rocket had taken care of the prisoners. There had been no reason to interrogate. Venus and Piston had taken a couple of the Salvation’s Bane members to the Grace of the Divine camp. Apparently, Venus and Piston and they’d taken it from there.
