Chapter 30

THIRTY

“Nova,” he murmurs as he stares at me. I’m sitting on the edge of the bed, hardly able to believe it’s him.

How?

Why?

“Louis?” I murmur, rubbing at my eyes as if to wipe away the vision of him. The door shuts behind him, the noise snapping us into motion. He rushes to me as I rush to him. We meet midway, our lips coming together in a sloppy kiss as he lifts me into the air.

“I’ve got you, baby. I’ve got you,” he promises as he kisses me and holds me tight.

“What are you doing here?” I murmur as I rain kisses across his face, unable to stop touching him.

“You needed us, you needed someone here, so I got captured. Don’t worry, we have a plan.” His grin is wide as he holds me tight, as if he will never let me go again.

I hope he doesn’t.

Pulling back, I eye him in shock. “You got kidnapped because I needed you?”

“Of course, baby, I’d do anything for you.” He groans, gripping me tighter and kissing me.

“I love you. I love you so much,” I mumble against his lips. “I’ve missed you so much.”

I’m slammed to the bed, my legs thrown over his arms. “I know you’re hurt, my love, so stop me if I make it worse, but I need to be inside of you. I need to feel that you’re alive. I’ve been going out of my mind.”

Gripping his face, I tug him close as he rips at my pants, his eyes desperate. “I’m yours,” I tell him, and I am. Fuck the pain. I want him to remind me of who I am and that I’m more than this living, breathing wound. I’m Nova. I’m okay. Just for a moment, I want to lose myself in his body.

Groaning, he yanks off the cheap underwear. His eyes flick back to my face and with a dirty grin, he spits on his fingers. He thrusts them into me, making me cry out as he works them inside of me, stretching me while his lips meet mine and swallow my moan. His thumb rubs my clit as desire slams through me, making my back arch off the bed. Grunting, he pulls his fingers from my wet pussy then shoves his pants down, and with one hard kiss, he thrusts into me. His cock stretches me as he sinks deeply inside me. The slight pain makes me groan as my body adjusts, and he moans as his head falls to mine.

“God, baby, I missed you so much. I was so fucking worried. Don’t you ever do that again,” he snarls as he pulls out and slams back in. “Say it, say you won’t leave us again.”

“Louis,” I beg, biting his lip.

Snarling, he lifts and drops me on his dick as he reaches between us, rubbing my clit harshly. The sudden desire and pleasure makes my eyes close as I jerk.

“Say it,” he orders, and just when I’m about to come, he stops. His cock is still inside me. Rocking, I try to get off, but he stills me and I slump. “Say it, Nova.”

“I won’t leave you again,” I snap. “Please.”

“Good girl,” he purrs, kissing me as he rubs my clit while rocking into me, making sure to slide over those nerves that have me clawing at his shoulders and gasping into his mouth. It’s too much. All the pain I’ve had fades into pleasure that explodes through me like fireworks. I scream into his lips, my body jack-knifing, and pain hits me from the movement in my stomach, but I don’t let him stop.

I lock my legs behind him to keep him inside of me as he kisses me through my release. “Such a good girl, Nova,” he murmurs as I shudder. He slowly pulls out of my pussy and shoves back in, hard and fast.

His other hand comes up and rips my shirt off to bare me to his gaze. I freeze then, and his eyes widen when he sees my new scars. I wait for his anger or disgust, but he slows, making sure I meet his eyes before he leans down and trails his lips over every single one until my throat is tight with tears.

“You are so perfect, my girl,” he promises, “then and now. No matter what, I will spend our lives kissing these better and loving the story they tell of my girl surviving to get back to us.”

Closing my eyes, I let him heal the wounds with his words and touch as his lips move up and down my chest. He licks my nipples before sucking them into his mouth. The zap of pleasure makes me fall back, and I grip the edge of the bed as he continues his assault.

His thrusts speed up. One hand holds me, while the other slides softly across my dripping clit. His mouth switches between my breasts as he murmurs, “Come for me, Nova. I need to feel it again. I need my girl’s cum on my cock, and I need to fill you with mine so deeply, we can never be separated again.”

“Louis!” I scream, uncaring who hears. Gripping his hair, I pull his mouth to mine as I fall off that cliff. He follows me this time, bellowing into my mouth as his hips flex, filling me to the point of pain as I feel him jerk and come inside me.

Shuddering, I suck in desperate breaths, my body alight with pleasure as he kisses my lips. “I love you. I love you so much, Nova,” he murmurs. “I told you that I would always come for you, and I will. There isn’t anywhere in this world where you could hide from me. It’s you and me, Nova, forever. No matter what.”

Whimpering, I fall into the kiss.

“I’ve got you, my love,” he promises, our bodies still joined as pleasure continues to course through me. “I’ve always got you.”
