I know this is a hasty update, but just wanted to let you guys know that I have only one more chapter to write…all the rest is already written and proof-read, and the story is going to be about 9 chapters long. Possibly 10, but at least 9. Thanks to all my readers!

Erik

I awoke in the morning to see my beautiful wife laying beside of me. She was laying on her side facing me with her beautiful blue eyes closed and her golden curls falling all around her. I buried my nose on top of her head and breathed, taking in the scent of her hair. As I lay there beside of her, completely content, I began to reminisce about the night before. It felt so good to be inside of her. I never dreamed a woman would allow me entrance into the most private and sensitive part of her body, but Sabine had. It felt like heaven as I gently but forcefully pushed into her. I enjoyed the pleasure I was receiving and the small gasps that came from her lips in the process. But I wish that I had never hurt her, even though she said it had been worth the pain.

Suddenly, she moaned and her gorgeous blue eyes began to open and immediately focused on me. She smiled when she saw me looking down at her and when I whispered, "Good morning my dear," she gently placed a kiss on my lips.

"Good morning, darling," she answered.

Even in the early morning she looked breathtaking.

"How did you sleep?"

"Very well. You?"

"I had my beautiful wife wrapped up in my arms, so I slept very peacefully."

She smiled and buried her face in my chest. I could have stayed like that forever with her so close to me, but eventually I rose and went to the window. It had snowed all night and the trees outside were heavy with it. The sun shone now and it looked like diamonds in the trees and covering the ground. Everything looked a little more beautiful today in my mind.

"Draw the curtains and come back to bed," I heard my wife whisper, lovingly.

I did as I was told and received a kiss for it. She then gently turned me over on

my back and moved on top of my body, sitting up and straddling my lower abdomen. I hardened automatically. Slowly, she slid herself over on top of me and began to rock gently. I reciprocated her actions.

"Does it hurt?" I asked.

"No," she whispered. "Don't stop."

"I won't darling. It's too wonderful to stop."

My hands were placed on her hips and she was running her fingers through her hair with her head tilted back. She looked like a goddess, and when we finally climaxed, it was even better than before. We both cried out in pleasure and when she gently laid down on top of me and her tongue explored the inside of my mouth, I was in heaven.

"You are amazing," she whispered when we broke apart.

"You are as well, my love."

We lay like that for what seemed an eternity. Finally, our breathing became normal and she looked into my eyes.

"Are you hungry?" she asked.

I nodded.

"Wait here," she replied and kissed me. "I'll be back."

She stood up and looked down at me. I gazed up at her beautiful naked body and held out my arms to her, worshipping her body. She laughed and turned to leave.

"Wait darling," I pleaded.

She turned back around, giving me a front view look of her gorgeous body.

"I've changed my mind," I whispered. "I am not hungry. Please come back to bed with me. I don't want to let you out of my sight."

She laughed her crystalline laugh and pounced on me, her chest pressed against mine passionately. I kissed her beautiful lips and stroked the side of her face gently.

"We can't stay in bed all day, Erik," she whispered.

"Why not?"

She shrugged and then smiled down at me.

"Why don't we go take a shower together?" she asked hopefully.

"Sounds good."

She leapt off of me and began running down the stairs with me close behind. She was in a very playful mood that I had never seen before and I knew then that married life was going to be anything but boring. When we reached the shower, we both climbed in and began letting the water run, trying to get it warm. She turned to me and playfully threw cold water onto my body.

"That's to cool you down," she exclaimed and laughed.

"You little…"

I wrestled her to the floor of the tub as it began to fill up with warm water and kissed her passionately. God, she looked gorgeous laying beneath the weight of my body. Her golden curls were just starting to get wet and I could have stayed in that position forever just gazing into her eyes.

When the tub was filled with enough water, I began to scoop water up onto the rest of her body, letting my hands linger on her flesh longer than I originally intended. Almost in a state of trance, I began rubbing soap all over her and I enjoyed hearing the small gasps that escaped her lips as I continued my task. After rinsing her off thoroughly and nibbling at her breasts in which she rewarded me with the most delightful sounds, she gave me a look as if it say that it was her turn to please me.

We changed positions without saying a word and she slowly began to wash my body in the same manner I had washed hers, giving special attention to the areas that pleased me the most. After she was through with her task, she gently climbed on top of me and began making love to me, running her fingers through her soaked hair. It was the most romantic and touching experience I had ever had in my life.

After it was over, she lay on top of me, both of us panting for breath. We stayed in the tub talking and kissing and touching until the water started to turn cold and we decided to get out and dry off. It was only then that I reluctantly allowed to her dress and make me breakfast.
