CHAPTER XIV
Stiles and Terri went back to their dream house - Terri's house by the cliff. Stiles kept on looking at Terri as if he was afraid she would vanish from his life once again. As soon as they entered the house, Stiles backed Terri against the wall and held her captive with his eyes. He reached for the first button on her blouse and slowly slipped it from its hole.
Desperate to say something to alleviate some of the heat flowing through her whole body she said, "So what would you like to do, want to talk?"
The second button was freed, then the third and the fourth. His smiled slipped over his lips as easily as the buttons slipped out of its holes.
"No, definitely no talking unless it is to express your desires or to ask for more."
She swallowed, but there was no moisture to be had within her mouth. It had gone drier than the sand on the beach. "More of what?"
The blouse undone, he tugged it out of the waistband of her skirt, and then pressed a single kiss to her throat. He felt her pulse beating erratically beneath his lips. Anticipation danced along her body like a top whirling out of control.
He was about to answer but she ordered, "On second thought, jut shut up and kiss me", unable to wait a single second longer.
Catching her hands and holding them above her head, against the wall, Stiles threaded his fingers through hers as he pressed his body against hers. The heat that shot through him was like a warm 150-proof whiskey or eating a raw habañero chili. "Yes, ma'am, I am to please", he said.
Over and over again, his mouth slanted across hers, his body trapping her between him and the wall. Releasing her hands, he let his roam her sides, reveling in the familiar feel. Reveling in the sweet homecoming. He missed her so much. He hadn't realized the depth and gravity of his loneliness for Terri until this very moment. Until desire all but threatened to completely shred him apart. He made love to every part of her, making sure that he leaves no part untouched.
After making the greatest love they both had, they just stayed on the couch in the living room cuddled up. "Have I told you that I love you very much?", Stiles said.
"No, not for the last 30 seconds", Terri said smiling.
"Then I'll tell you again. I love you. I love you. I love you." Stiles said punctuating each word with a kiss.
=================
Stiles woke Terri before dawn. He wanted her again. Needed her in such a desperate way that he felt frightened. He had lost control last night, when he'd taken her so savagely on the floor of the living room, totally forgetting about protection. But even now, hours afterwards, he knew if he had to do it over again, he would still be powerless to change what had happened, to do anything differently. As he lay beside her in the couch, he watched while she slept, cuddled against him, so peaceful and so beautiful. He'd never felt such a strong desire to possess and protect a woman. His feelings for Terri were as intense, as powerful and as fierce as a volcano ready to erupt. He was grateful for this second chance. She was his and he is not going to lose her again.
Stiles leaned over and kissed her naked shoulder. She sighed. Illuminations from the moon reflected on the ocean was enough for him to see her. He lowered the sheet covering her and eased them down until he revealed her naked body. He called her name softly and drew her body close to his, nuzzling her neck and intimately explored the rest of her body.
Fully satiated Stiles could only smile and utter, "That was awesome, even better than my dream a few days ago."
"Really, you dreamed about making love to me a few days ago!"
Stiles nodded, " I dreamed that we were in my hotel room and while I was asleep you were kissing my lips, my cheeks, my forehead, even my nose and we made love that was pure magic."
"Well I'll let you in on a little secret, it wasn't a dream. I really went inside your hotel room and we did make love."
"Man, those painkillers must have really knocked me out. I can't believe I slept throughout the whole thing! And the blue martini?"
"Guilty", Terri said smiling sheepishly.
"Why didn't you approach me?"
"I honestly didn't know what I want. I just had to see you but then I didn't want to jeopardize your life in case the CIA or the North Koreans are still after me."
"You have nothing to worry about anymore. Jin Gui Kim and his people are already dead. Even Robert Quinn. He was brutally murdered 4 years ago. Tom Gage won't cause you any problems anymore. He was transferred to Norway as US Ambassador."
