Olivia tightened her muscles to keep them in the position they were in and still be able to use her hands. She captured Alex's face between her hands and traced her lips with her thumbs. She smiled as Alex's lips parted automatically for her upon her touch. Olivia's eyes connected with Alex's as she slowly moved forward giving Alex a chance to pull back if she wanted.

Alex groaned when she felt Olivia tighten her muscles. Images suddenly flooded her mind of things those muscles had done to her in the past when they were contracted. She groaned when she felt Olivia trace her lips with her thumb. They seemed to open automatically as if they had a mind of their own. The gentleness Olivia showed her, which she always showed her, could always bring tears to her eyes.

Olivia halted just as her lips brushed Alex's.

"I love you Alexandra Cabot-Benson" Olivia whispered against Alex's lips before taking them in a slow sensual kiss.

Olivia traced the outline of Alex's lips slowly and repeatedly as if she was trying to memorize the shape and fullness of her lips. She groaned when she felt Alex open her mouth wider to receive her and then totally submit to the on sought she was receiving. Both women pulled back and gasped for air. Not only from the kiss but also from the amount of love they felt for each other through the kiss.

Alex ran her fingers through Olivia's hair then slowly ran her hands over her shoulders. Feeling her muscles jump and twitch at her touch was as intoxicating as it was the first time they made love. She flattened her palms against Olivia's chest and pushed slightly causing Olivia to fall back. The laughter she heard when she fell back was music to her ears.

"Hey' Olivia said laughing as she fell back.

"Like what you see Detective?" Alex asked her voice full of desire and love as she slowly unbuttoned her shirt exposing her creamy white skin.

Olivia could only nod as she seemed to have lost all the moisture in her mouth. She slowly reached up and brushed her fingers along Alex's stomach smiling as she arched into the touch and how the muscles jumped at her touch.

"You're beautiful." Olivia whispered once she finally found her voice again.

Alex allowed the shirt to fall slowly from her shoulders enjoying the look that crossed Olivia's face. After five years of marriage it amazed her that Olivia still looked at her like she was her last meal. Then again the love and connection they have and feel was unlike any other she had before.

Olivia sat up to again capture the lips of the woman she loved more than life itself. How she ever gotten so lucky she had no clue but she certainly thanked the lord above that she was given her. With the assistance of Alex she shed her shirt before flipping them over in the bed.

Alex laughed as Olivia flipped them over. There was nothing more she loved than Olivia dominating her in the bedroom. Hell she loved it when she was dominating outside the bedroom in their personal lives. As independent and controlling she appeared in the court room and elsewhere it was the exact opposite behind closed doors.

"I love you baby." Olivia said as she pulled back and ran her fingers through the blonde hair that felt like silk to her.

"I love you too." Alex whispered as she caressed Olivia's face with the back of her hand loving how she closed her eyes and leaned into the touch. "I'm sorry about everything."

"What was different about this time?" Olivia asked as she undid the clasp on Alex's bra.

"I'm not sure" Alex moaned out as Olivia took a rosy bud in her mouth and sucked gently.

"Not even a hint?" Olivia asked as she moved to the other breast that was begging for attention from her.

"I guess knowing you were alone with her and how relentless she could be." Alex gasped as she felt Olivia's teeth scrap across her sensitive nipple.

"You don't trust me to keep what we have?" Olivia wanted to know, had to know, before she continued.

"With my life." Alex said pulling Olivia up to her so she could look into her eyes "I trust you with every beat of my heart. I didn't trust her and we both know how relentless she could be. To know you were alone with her every possible scenario possible went through my head."

"I vowed to love, honor, and cherish you till death do us part." Olivia said as she pulled Alex's hand up to her lips and gently kissed the wedding band she placed there five years ago "I meant it then and will mean it till the day I die."

"I know" Alex answered as she ran her nails up and down Olivia's back "I know."

Olivia wagged her eyebrows at her which caused Alex to throw her head back and laugh. She playfully made her way down Alex's body laughing with her. She skimmed the waist band of Alex's skirt with her fingertip and groaned when Alex immediately stopped laughing and moaned at the contact. She found the zipper on the side and slowly lowered it.

Alex buried her hands in Olivia's hair. The playfulness and love she was showing her was the same as always when they made love. For them it was almost a game and never hurried. This time, because of the questions running through their heads, it was a way to silence them.

"Up" Olivia growled as she began to slid Alex's skirt off her hips. Alex instantly complied with the command, God how she loved that commanding tone coming from Olivia. She felt a new flood of wetness upon hearing it.

Olivia slowly pulled the skirt off Alex like she was unwrapping a present. In a way she was a beautiful present just for her. Alex was giving herself over to Olivia. The greatest gift she could ever be given.
