Axel smiled.
“Bell complained a lot about sleeping while pregnant, and Galen gave me more than a couple of reading suggestions for how I could ease your worries in pregnancy,” he said.
Axel reached out and moved one of her curls behind her ear. The slight touch of his finger against her cheek was warm.
“I’ll stay until you fall asleep,” he said softly. “If that’s all right.”
Alice swallowed.
“No,” she said. “It’s not.”
Axel turned away but did not object.
“Stay until I wake,” she said.
Axel looked back with eyes wide and a lump in his throat.
“Can I stay with you?” he asked slowly. “Is that really all right?”
Alice nodded and looked away from him to get comfortable against her pillows. The overhead light turned off, and soon she felt a shifting weight on the bed. The blankets were pulled down slightly as he got under them. He pulled them back over her shoulder as his thumb grazed her skin.
He lay down on the pillow, turning to face her. Even in the dark room, with only a soft moonlight glow coming in through the window, Alice could see his eyes on her.
She took a deep breath; his scent was comforting. She was tired, and she knew he was too. Alice reached her hand out to Axel’s cheek. He instantly leaned into it.
“Let’s sleep,” she said. “Let go of all those worried thoughts, and for tonight, just rest.”
Axel nodded and turned just enough to be able to kiss her palm.
“Good night, Sweet Boy,” Alice smiled.
“Good night, Sweet Girl,” Axel whispered.
It was the first peaceful night either of them had had for a very long time, even before Alice had left home.
She had almost expected to wake up feeling uneasy or like the distance between them had returned. But waking in his arms, and now as she looked down at his restful, sleeping face. His hair was loose and free. She never felt closer to him.
Of course, she knew that a conversation was still to be had. He needed to vocalize his apology. He needed her to hear him and see that he meant every word. It didn’t matter that she already knew. That for her, his actions had already spoken clearly.
She would hear every word and apologize and express her desire to never again experience a moment without him by her side. She would say those words in the way that he could hear her best.
Alice sat up, careful not to wake him. She smiled as she looked down at his peaceful expression.
Her eyes roamed over his familiar scars and those plump tempting lips. At the thick muscles of his shoulders and the deep grooves of his chest and stomach just before he disappeared under the sheets.
She licked her lips and felt her breath shorten.
Yes, she would speak the words he needed to hear. But first, she would express that desire in the language she understood best.
Alice gently pulled the sheets away from him. She already knew, of course, that he was naked. Still, the sight of him sent a rippling of pleasure and anticipation over her body that caused her to let out a shaky breath.
She was tempted to reach out and touch him, but she knew he would wake up as soon as she did. Just at a glance, he was more than ready to participate in whatever activity she chose.
He had taken his time in the bath to make her feel good. To draw out every moan and cry to the best of his ability. And while Alice had been more than satisfied, he had only used his hands and not experienced any of that release himself.
So, she had a decision to make. Would she wake him with her mouth? Or by swallowing him whole with her body?
It didn’t take long for Axel to respond to her.
Alice had debated for several minutes before deciding what she wanted. But once she had, his body reacted to her instantly. He was already half stirred when she pulled back the sheets, but as she hungrily leered at his naked body, he began to react to the desire between their bond.
She grinned as his shaft stood almost fully erect and twitched as she got closer. She licked her lips and glanced at his face, suspecting he might already be awake. But his chest’s gentle rise and fall told her he wasn’t.
Moving her body between his legs, she leaned forward and ran her tongue over the tip of his shaft. Axel took in a heavy breath but didn’t wake. Alice smiled and proceeded to wrap her lips around him.
Axel let out a sleepy moan as her hot, wet mouth drew him in further. His breath increased, and she could hear the change in the rhythm of his heart. Each moan, breath, and the small instinctual movements of his hips encouraged and pleased her.
She sucked and increased her pace as her fingers found his perineum’s soft, thin stretch of sensitive skin. Axel gasped as she ran her nail gently down the line.
His body was hot, and his pleasure spread over him with every movement she made. Axel’s mind was doused in lust, and it was challenging to find a clear thought. Even opening his eyes seemed like an arduous task as he leaned his head back into the pillow with a hiss when her teeth grazed his shaft.
He gripped the sheet below his fingers as she took all of him into her mouth, and he hit the back of her throat. He licked his lips and clenched his jaw hard to keep himself from thrusting.
“Alice… stop… I’m close…” he whispered between his panting breaths.
Alice felt his struggle. She felt how close he was to his release. She moved her hands to his thighs, squeezing his muscles and digging her nails into his flesh as she moved her head up and down his shaft.
Axel groaned and let out a heavy pant as he could no longer hold back. Finally, he released himself into her throat.
“Alice…!” He called to her in a gasp of pain and pleasure as she continued to suck and pull every drop from him. “What… are you… doing?”
He had thought it was a dream at first. There had been so many just like it. But he quickly recognized it was far better than any dream he had experienced before, which meant it had to be real. If he had realized sooner, he might have tried to stop her.
Axel opened his eyes as he struggled to catch his breath. He looked where she still sat on her knees between his legs. His breath hitched as he saw the flush on her cheeks and the misty look in her eyes as she wiped her mouth with her thumb.
“Alice…” he whispered, rising onto his elbows.
She met his eyes with a dark gaze. Alice licked her lips and then rose up on her knees. Axel felt his heart pounding heavily in his chest as she moved her hands down and lifted her nightgown up to her thighs, just enough that she could move unimpeded.
She climbed over his thighs to straddle him. The soft cold fabric of her nightgown cradled his still-hard cock as she moved further up his body.
Alice rolled her hips to press firmly against him. Axel swallowed as he stared down where their bodies were almost connected. The fabric against him felt strange and exciting, but his growing desire to be inside her made him impatient.
She smiled as he moved against her with small thrusts.
“What am I doing?” she asked with a soft smile.
Axel licked his lips and looked up at her mischievous eyes.
She bit down on her lower lip as she reached down and slowly gathered the fabric of her gown into her hands, drawing it up from her thighs until his cock no longer felt the soft coolness. Instead, he felt the heat of her core.
She reached down and grabbed him. Axel took a deep breath and licked his lips as he watched her. Alice lowered herself just enough for him to feel the heat and wetness.
“I’m expressing how much I’ve missed you,” she whispered, lowering herself only a bit more as she let out a soft breath.
Axel groaned and clenched his jaw. He dropped from his elbows onto his back, his hands reached out and held to her thighs. He wanted desperately to thrust into her and become submerged in her heat.
He drew sharp breaths through his teeth as he struggled to hold himself back. Alice looked down at him, and he could see the enjoyment she was getting from watching him. She lowered herself again, just a little.
She took a slow breath, and Axel could see she was struggling too. She wanted more. He felt the trembling in her thighs. If this was just another day, he would play along, and they would torture each other until neither could move from the exhaustion of their satisfaction.
But it wasn’t any other day. They had been apart too long. He missed her in a way that he couldn’t put into words. He needed to feel her, be with her, connect to her, and she needed him too.
“Alice…” he whispered, looking up at her.
She looked down and met his eye.
“I don’t want to miss you anymore,” he whispered.
Alice swallowed. Her heart was racing again. She smiled and nodded.
Axel’s hands moved up to her hips. He held on to her and helped her ease onto him until he was buried in her. He took a slow breath as she tightened around him and moaned. She reached down to his shoulders and took a breath to steady herself.
Her walls continued to spasm around him. She was already so sensitive. Axel knew she was ready. He held her and moved his hips, thrusting himself deeper inside her. Alice cried out and dug her nails into his shoulders.
A few more quick thrusts, and she squeezed around him as he pushed himself deeper. Finally, Alice cried out, and her body convulsed. She fell against him and bit his shoulder as the pleasure radiated through her in a scorching blend of pain and pleasure.
She felt tired and weak, but she wanted more. She needed more.
She panted against his shoulder. He put his arms around her and sat up. He moved his legs over the edge of the bed while he kept her in his lap, still sheathed within her.
Axel reached up and moved the hair from her face. He nuzzled against her cheek and whispered in her ear.
“Hold onto me. I’ll do the rest.”
Before she could respond, Axel was already moving inside of her again.
Alice had always known pleasure when she was with Axel. Never had they failed to satisfy each other. But that morning spent apologizing and expressing their longing was unlike anything they had experienced.
Though their lovemaking was cut short by the limited stamina of her pregnant body, they stayed in each other’s arms the entire day. They slept, they talked, they enjoyed each other.
By sunrise the following day, Alice was ready to return home, and Axel was ready to let go of the burdens that were not his to carry.
Once Axel and Alice had worked through the breakdown in their communication, their relationship grew stronger than ever before.
Free from the guilt and responsibility he felt toward Selene and the pain she carried. Axel was able to enjoy the anticipation of becoming a father. He took care of Alice and her needs, as well as the things she claimed she didn’t need.
Alice complained that he was too fussy and overbearing, but she loved every moment.
As the due date drew near, Alice had a more challenging time getting around. She was tired, and she ached. There were moments when she felt such a lack of control over her body that she had nightmares of her time as a doll.
But during those moments, Axel would sit with her, gently stroking her hair and reminding her of their life and the bright future they still had to come.
When Bell and Galen arrived in Winter, Alice was not surprised that Selene was not with them. And though he smiled and said he understood, she knew Axel was disappointed.
They talked, and he admitted that he had hoped Selene would surprise them all and come to Winter for the birth of the twins. But he did understand why she hadn’t.
After Bell told them about her leaving, it settled him a little. Alice was surprised, thinking it might send him back into worry and fear for his sister. But instead, he told her of all the things Selene had done and how she had reacted, this was the only one he truly understood.
