Chapter Thirteen

D ante

I stood outside Ava's apartment building, the city quiet and still around me. My heart pounded in my chest, a mix of anticipation and nerves tightening my grip on the bouquet of flowers in my hand. It had been three long months since I last saw her, and every moment apart had only solidified my resolve. I took a deep breath, gathering my thoughts before ringing her doorbell.

The seconds stretched into eternity as I waited. Finally, the door creaked open, and there she was, standing before me. Ava's eyes widened with surprise, her breath catching as our gazes locked. The months apart melted away in that silent moment of recognition.

"Dante," she whispered, her voice a mixture of shock and emotion.

"Hi, Ava," I replied, my voice thick with the weight of everything I needed to say.

She stepped aside, allowing me to enter. I followed her into the living room, my presence filling the space. The air was charged with tension and longing, memories of our time together hanging between us like a high wire. We sat on the couch, the silence heavy with unspoken words. I could see the questions in her eyes, the need for answers. I took a deep breath, steadying myself.

"Ava, I know you must be wondering where I've been and why I disappeared," I began, my voice filled with sincerity. "I've been working on something important. Something that I believe will change everything."

She listened intently, her eyes never leaving mine. I continued, my passion for the project evident in my tone. "I've created a new circus show. One that doesn't travel. It's a permanent home for the performers, a place where we can build a stable, lasting community. A place where I can finally settle down."

Her eyes widened with surprise and hope, her lips parting slightly. The intensity of the moment drew us closer, our hands finding each other, fingers intertwining.

"You changed my life, Ava," I said, my voice dropping to a husky whisper. "You made me a better man, and I can't imagine my life without you. I vow never to leave your side again."

The sexual tension between us crackled, the air thick with anticipation. The months apart had only intensified our desire for each other, and the chemistry between us was undeniable.

"I've missed you so much, Dante," Ava murmured, her voice trembling with emotion.

"I've missed you too, more than words can say," I replied, leaning in closer.

Our words became whispers, our breaths mingling as the distance between us disappeared. Unable to resist any longer, I pulled her into my arms, our lips meeting in a fervent, passionate kiss. The world outside ceased to exist as our bodies pressed together, the heat of our longing igniting into a blazing inferno.

We stumbled to the bedroom, our clothes discarded in a trail behind us. Our hands roamed each other's bodies, every touch electric, every kiss a promise of the love we shared. The passion that had simmered beneath the surface erupted, consuming us both.

My body trembled against hers, my heart beating a rapid and frantic rhythm as I tasted the sweet wine on her lips. The cool air brushed against her skin, causing goosebumps to rise along her arms. I trailed my hand across her sleek shoulders, feeling the softness of her hair beneath my fingers as I pulled it to one side. She looked up at me with glistening eyes, a smile playing on her lips like an angelic gift. It was moments like this that made my heart flutter and sprout wings.

"You give me everything just by being here," I whispered before claiming her lips once more. The night was filled with romance and passion, our hands and lips devouring each other hungrily. The aroma of her perfume mixed with the sweetness of our desire. I slid my hands up her simple yet feminine dress, reveling in the delicate fabric and the curve of her body. My hands eagerly pulled down the white cotton of her panties, revealing more of her enticing skin.

Her hands roamed my back, igniting every nerve ending they touched. Her lips moved feverishly across mine, leaving a trail of fire in their wake.

"Dante..." she moaned repeatedly between kisses on my neck. Her nimble fingers worked quickly to undo the buttons on my shirt, eager to strip me of every barrier between us. As the cotton gave way to bare skin, I found myself completely exposed and kneeling in the grass with her, our bodies pressed together in passionate frenzy.

"Please," she pleaded, wild strands of hair splayed out beneath her as she panted and moaned. "I want you, Dante." Her words sent a jolt straight to my throbbing cock.

"So sweet," I murmured as I finally unzipped my pants. With no restraints left, my boxer briefs and gentlemanly inhibitions were cast aside as she eagerly wrapped her tiny hand around my length. She pulled and tugged, swirling her tongue over the tip of my cock with such skill and hunger that it almost took my breath away. When our eyes met, I saw the same lust and desire reflected back at me.

Unable to control myself any longer, I gripped her hair firmly in both hands to steady myself. I knew if she kept this up, I would explode down her throat in an uncontrollable rush. "Ava," I panted before pulling her off my cock. I wasn't ready to be done yet, but I had to make sure I did things right. This was about her pleasure, her desires.

This was our first time together and I wanted to make sure it was perfect. "Just relax and let me take care of you," I whispered as I laid her back, positioning myself between her legs. She watched me with rapt attention as her chest rose and fell with each shallow breath, her nipples hardening beneath the fabric of her dress.

I kissed a trail down her torso, my hands working the dress higher and higher until it bunched up around her thighs. The sight of her sweet mound nearly made me lose control. But I forced myself to stay focused, wanting to savor every moment of this intimate experience with her. The scent of her arousal hit me like a wave, sweet and heady, as I grazed my nose across the fabric of her dress. The elastic waistband snapped under the pressure of my teeth as I continued my journey down her body. Her breath hitched in anticipation, her stomach rising and falling rapidly as she waited to see where my touch would lead her next. Desire and arousal flooded through every nerve ending, making her shiver beneath my fingers. With one swift movement, I pushed the dress up her waist and over her shoulders, tossing it aside to reveal only her lacy bra. Her breasts were round and perfect, fitting perfectly in the palm of my hand.

"Jesus, you're stunning," I husked, unable to contain my admiration for her beauty. "Has anyone ever told you that? You're so sweet, I'm sure I don't deserve you." Without hesitation, I dove in with my tongue and lips, sucking and pulling at her perky buds until she was mewling and arching off the ground in pleasure. She gasped and clutched at the sheets beneath us as I moved my hands across her skin, teasingly dancing across her quivering clit.

As I continued to kiss and suck at her breasts, my own cock raged to be inside her warm body again. But first, I brought her to one intense orgasm with just my hand, before quickly spreading her thighs open to straddle my face. With an almost desperate hunger, I ran my tongue along the length of her folds, taking in the musky aroma of her arousal. Then with one greedy lick at her entrance, she bucked and groaned with pleasure. Her symphony encouraged me on as I swirled my tongue around her clit before sucking gently at it while adding a thin finger to tease at her entrance. Slowly, I primed and prodded her for the invasion that was to come.

But I couldn't turn away from her - she was too beautiful, too sweet, too kind and loving, and too perfect for me. She was mine, and she just needed to see that. She sighed my name as I stroked inside her hot pussy, relishing in the taste and feel of her. Adding another finger, I stretched her slowly, savoring every moment. "Dante," she cried out when I nipped at her clit and thrust my fingers deeper inside her body. And for a second time, her thighs went rigid around my face as I brought her to yet another release with my tongue.

"You taste so fucking delicious," I hummed before crawling up her body and kissing her again. This time it was slower, with reverence and appreciation. I trusted and respected this woman - hell, I loved her. And now, I wanted us to be whole in every way.

I lined my throbbing cock up against her slick slit, teasing at her lips and rubbing against her sensitive clit. "I can't wait to be buried deep inside you," I whispered into her ear.

Her eyes tightly closed, she murmured softly, "I'm ready, but I'm scared."

"Don't be," I reassured her as I gazed down at her with adoration. "I'll take care of you." And with that, I slowly entered her body, feeling every inch of her tightness enveloping me.

"Ava," I groaned as we moved together in a rhythm that felt like pure ecstasy.

"Dante...please," she begged feverishly.

"I couldn't turn away from you if I tried," I replied breathlessly as we continued our dance towards ultimate pleasure. "You're everything to me."

In the darkness, I whispered to her, my voice low and filled with longing. She shook her head before her eyes shot open, revealing the glimmer of love and trust shining in their depths. With one hand buried in my hair, she calmed every last ragged nerve I had with a touch. "I've waited a long time for you, for this. I couldn't imagine being with anyone else but you." My heart swelled with emotion as I spoke these words, knowing that they were true. "This is the beginning for us baby, this is my forever."

She soothed my anxiety with a slow kiss on my lips, cupping my stubbled jawline and reassuring me with every stroke that she felt this too. This thing between us was alive and real and pulsed just as steady as the beat of our hearts. Gently and with great care, I eased myself inside her inch by slow inch. Nerve-endings fired and all sense left my brain as I tried to control myself in those first few moments. Time seemed to stand still, the only sound coming from the cool breeze whistling through the trees. As we kissed, skin against skin, I pushed myself to the limit - with her, I pushed myself home.

With her hands tangled in my hair, she focused on the touch of my skin at her lips, savoring each deep and languid kiss that curled her toes and turned her blood to molten lava. Her body responded eagerly to mine as I ever so slowly invaded her inch by slow inch. It was a gift she had never given to anyone else - her innocence. As I paused inside her, our gazes locked and our breath mingled in the air between us. "Are you okay?" I whispered, concern lacing my words. A wave of tenderness washed over me as I saw the tears welling in her eyes, but she quickly reassured me with a nod and a tight grip on my shoulder blades. Such a foreign concept to a girl like her - kindness, generosity, and a heart that was too big for its own good.

With one final push, I entered her fully and the sensation was overwhelming. A thousand shooting nerves seemed to pierce me from the inside out, but I held onto her tightly, feeling her muscles clench around me. Our bodies moved together in perfect harmony. In that moment, I knew that we were meant to be together – two halves completing each other in a fiery embrace.

My tongue traced patterns along her sensitive skin, her eyes locked with mine, creating an all-consuming intimacy between us. I was fully in command of her body and emotions as I felt the tension in her muscles gradually eased and the arousal took over. I could tell she felt the slight discomfort of my size stretching her, but the overwhelming sensation of me filling her must have overshadowed all else as she moaned and whispered for more.

"You're so big," she said, as I arched my hips to hit a spot deeper inside of her. "You feel so good." She mirrored my movements with a slow rocking of her own, eyes closed and muscles strained in ecstasy.

"You're perfect," I whispered between kisses and thrusts, "you feel perfect." It was almost too much to handle, the feel of her in my arms, her mouth against mine, I don't know how I resisted her for so long.

"I'll take care of you for the rest of your life," I promised as our bodies moved together in perfect harmony. "I've been waiting for you for so long, and I'll wait forever if that's what it takes." My attention shifted to fulfilling her needs and desires, massaging her clit with skilled fingers before bringing them to my lips to taste her before returning them between us. I could feel her body building towards another orgasm with each touch and thrust. All thoughts were consumed with worshiping this woman.

"Dante," she moaned into the night air as another wave of pleasure crashed through her. I echoed her cries with deep grunts of pleasure as we became one under the silver light above us. Her body pressed against mine, skin to skin, creating an unbreakable bond only we shared.

"I've never felt anything like that before," she panted as I collapsed on top of her, enveloping her in my protective embrace. "I've waited so long for you, Ava."

Later, as we lay entwined in each other's arms, I brushed a strand of hair from Ava's face, my fingers lingering on her skin. "I promise you, Ava, I will be forever devoted to you," I whispered, my voice filled with conviction.

She looked up at me, her eyes shining with love and certainty. "As long as we're together, I'm happy."

My heart swelled with emotion, the future stretching out before us filled with endless possibilities. "We'll face it all together," I said, my voice a solemn vow.

The love we had found was strong, unbreakable, and we were ready to build a future side by side. Ava lay across from me in bed, her eyes wide with a mix of hope and trepidation. The sincerity of my words seemed to reach her, and I could see her heart swelling with love, her defenses crumbling. The intensity of the moment was magnetic, drawing us closer together. Our hands found each other, fingers intertwining in a silent promise.

"I've missed you, Ava," I said, my voice thick with emotion. "Every day apart felt like an eternity. You changed my life in ways I never thought possible. You made me a better man." Her eyes glistened with unshed tears, but there was a spark of something else too—desire. I leaned in closer, my gaze never leaving hers. "I swear to you, Ava, I'll never leave your side again. I can't imagine my life without you in it. You're everything to me."

The words hung in the air, heavy with meaning. Ava's breath hitched, her lips parting slightly. The sexual tension between us was undeniable, a tangible force pulling us together. Our faces were inches apart, the heat between us building with every heartbeat.

"Dante…" she whispered, her voice a soft plea.

I closed the distance, my lips brushing against hers in a tender kiss that quickly deepened. The taste of her, the feel of her, it was like coming home. Our mouths moved together with a hunger that had been building for months, our kisses growing more fervent, more desperate.

Her hands slid up my chest, her fingers curling into my shirt as if to pull me closer. I responded in kind, my hands roaming over her body, feeling the familiar curves that had haunted my dreams. The living room around us faded away, leaving only the two of us, lost in a sea of desire.

"Dante," she gasped as I kissed a trail down her neck, my lips and teeth teasing her sensitive skin. Her fingers tangled in my hair, pulling me closer. "I need you."

The intensity of her words, the raw need in her voice, ignited something primal in me. My hands traced over her, savoring every inch, every curve. The feel of her beneath me, warm and willing, was almost too much to bear. Our passion erupted, a fervent and consuming force. We moved together in perfect harmony, every touch, every kiss driving us closer to the edge. The chemistry between us was electric, the months apart only intensifying our desire for each other.

"Ava," I groaned as she arched beneath me, her body responding to mine in a symphony of pleasure.

"Dante, please," she whispered, her voice a mixture of longing and ecstasy.

I lost myself in her, in the feel of her, in the love that bound us together. Our movements became more urgent, our breaths mingling in the heated air. The world outside ceased to exist, leaving only the two of us, joined in an intimate dance that spoke of promises and devotion.

As we reached our peak, the intensity of our connection brought us to a shattering climax, leaving us breathless and entwined. I held her close, our bodies slick with sweat, our hearts pounding in unison.

"I love you, Ava," I whispered, my voice raw with emotion. "Always."

"I love you too, Dante," she replied, her fingers tracing patterns on my skin. "Forever."

In that moment, I knew that no matter what challenges lay ahead, we would face them together. Our love was a force that could not be broken, and as long as we were together, we would find our way.

We made love like our lives depended on it, our bodies moving in perfect sync, the connection between us deeper and more profound than ever before. Every touch, every kiss was charged with the intensity of our love and the promise of a future together. The way Ava responded to me, her body arching, her breath hitching, it was all-consuming. I kissed her deeply, savoring the taste of her, the softness of her lips against mine. My hands roamed over her body, feeling every curve, every contour, committing it to memory. Our movements were urgent, yet there was a tenderness beneath the passion, a raw emotion that underscored everything. We moved together, clinging like magnets, our bodies locked in a rhythm that was both primal and sacred. The world outside ceased to exist, leaving only the two of us, lost in each other. When we finally reached the peak, it was like a wave crashing over us, a release so intense it left us both trembling. We held onto each other, our breaths mingling, our hearts beating in unison. In that moment, everything was perfect.

Afterward, we lay together, our bodies entwined, the night wrapping us in its embrace. I looked down at Ava, her face flushed, her eyes shining with contentment. "You've changed my life in ways I can't even begin to describe."

She looked up at me, her gaze soft and full of love. "You've already given me so much. I want to be with you, wherever you go."

Her words filled me with a profound sense of joy and relief. I leaned down, kissing her gently. "Then we'll face everything together. No more separations, no more goodbyes. Just us, building a life together."

The night stretched on, but it felt like time stood still. We talked about our plans, our dreams, our future. The bond between us had been tested and proven, and now we were ready to embrace whatever came next. As dawn broke, casting a soft glow through the window, we shared a quiet, tender moment. Ava's head rested on my chest, her fingers tracing idle patterns on my skin. The city outside was waking up, but for us, it felt like a new beginning.

We lay there in silence, the world outside slowly coming to life. There was a sense of peace, of rightness, that settled over us. We knew that as long as we were together, we could face anything. Our love had been tested, and we had come out stronger, more united than ever. The future was filled with promise, a blank canvas waiting for us to paint our story. And as the first light of day crept into the room, I knew that this was only the beginning. Together, we would build a life filled with love, adventure, and endless possibilities. Our journey had been long and fraught with challenges, but in the end, it had led us here, to this moment. And there was nowhere else I'd rather be. With Ava by my side, I was ready to embrace whatever the future held. Our love was a force that could not be broken, and as long as we had each other, we were unstoppable.
