"Please, my love, I can't take much more."
Marian whimpered below him, his teeth nibbling roughly at her neck as his fingers pressed inside of her.
They had been making love for hours, but he still wasn't ready to quit.
Anders moved his fingers slowly in and out of her, rubbing on her nub with his thumb, all while casting a rejuvenation spell. He knew it worked when her moans were quickly replaced with the soft sighs and moans he ached to hear fall from her lips.
"You are insatiable." She smiled, running her fingers through his hair and pulling him up to kiss her as she wrapped her legs around his waist.
"You love it." He grinned back, pressing his forehead against hers as he slid inside of her again.
She threw her head back and laughed, and he loved her all the more for it.
He had many lovers, but no one was as much fun, or meant as much to him as his Marian.
When their bodies were finally sated, Marian curled up in his arms, resting her head on his shoulder and running her fingers casually through the fine hairs that covered his chest.
"I love you with everything I am, Anders. You know that, right?"
He squeezed her tight, tucking his hand under her chin so that her eyes met his.
"I've never been more certain of anything in my life, Marian. And I love you just the same."
It ached in all honesty, the weight of just how much he loved her. He would die for her, kill for her a thousand times over. And he had, but so had she. They drowned in the blood together, fighting for a world where their children could one day run free, without the fear of ever being taken away from their parents.
He squeezed her tight, letting their bodies meld together as they fell into a peaceful sleep.
It didn't matter anymore what tomorrow would bring, as long as they were together.
