A/N: Thanks so much for all your wonderful thoughts.

Most characters belong to S. Meyer. The rest belong to me. All mistakes are mine.

Chapter 36 – Mutual Surrender


Edward's scent…taste…touch…all reminders of that weekend. But…just reminders.

This Edward is older…assertive…and…primal.

He pins me between his hips and the doorframe.

"Edward…"

"Lift your hands over your head."

He locks my wrists in one hand while the other cradles my jaw…fingertips kneading, guiding my mouth, hard hips flattened against me.

"Edward…"

It's a breathless whimper…a surrender, but not one born of fear. Any ferocity is tempered by his languid tongue, its wet path dipping lower…

"Edward…"

...by the tender gaze that meets mine…

"Bella…"

…by his question…

"What do you want?"

…yielding control...…because, yes…we'll take turns with control…

Now, it's mine.
