Title: Not Just A Career Woman Chp2
A/N: Thank you to all who took the time to review. It always makes my day!
Slowly, I begin to open my eyes and take in my surroundings. Looking around I recognize that I am in Mike's apartment with his very warm body against mine. Fire begins to flow through me again when I think of last night. It was absolutely perfect. The feminine side of me is screaming in pure joy about my mate. Last night was tender, yet still intense...we needed to make up for lost time. We did that and more! It's the first time that I have ever been told that some one can't get enough of me. I remember tears flowing out of both our eyes when we made love over and over. I feel completely satisfied for the first time in my adult life. I shift my head so I can glance up at the love of my life, he's beginning to stir awake. I hope he doesn't regret anything that was said or done last night. We did put a lot on the plate, and it was very serious subjects that had come up through out the night. Mike Logan had surprised me to say the least. I mean, I had no idea of the depths of his feelings for me. I thought he was just another playboy and I was about to chastise myself for allowing myself to fall for him as hard as I did.
"Hey Caro..." his velvet voice washes over me, I am helpless in his arms. Never before has any man affected me and have this kind of hold over me.
"Yeah...." I try to find my own voice to answer him.
His hands roam over my body for....well, I lost count of how many times we've woken up and made love all over again. "For the first time in my life, I am happy. I now know what true love is, thank you Carolyn."
His admission temporarily stuns me, looking in his eyes I can see that it is a very heartfelt confession, it takes me a moment to gather my wits. "No, thank you." It comes out as only a shaky whisper. "Thank you for making my life complete."
Before I can register what is happening, his lips cover mine as we both put everything we have in to the kiss. Oh God! The feel of his rough hands roaming over my body makes me melt and I surrender to the sensations coursing through my veins. He has me coming in no time at all with those talented fingers. I have no words for how good it feels when he's inside me, filling me , and just stretching me out on him. I can't get enough of him, I have this intense need to be with him. I am so happy he feels the same way. No matter how many times we make love, he gives the same attention to detail of pleasing me. I lose count of how many times I silently thank heaven for him.
The man I love continues to whisper sweet promises in my ear, pleading that I stay with him always, and I reassure him through tears falling down my cheeks. I confess that I will never leave his side. He tells me that he wants me for life...I almost hyperventilate when I hear him ask me to be his and wear his ring. I can only nod is response and his pace speeds up, burying himself even deeper inside me. I can't believe that this is actually happening, it feels as if this is all a surreal experience. Is it possible to feel this much love for some one? I have fallen and fallen hard for Mike Logan. It makes me melt inside when he says he loves me. Yeah, life is perfect in this moment.
Mike grabs me in an embrace and holds me as close as possible. I feel his lips brush my ear in a light kiss, making his way down my neck to the base, gently sucking and nipping at my skin. I mentally scold myself when a giggle escapes from my throat. With Mike I know that I can let all my barriers down and feel safe around him. When I let my guard fall and my weaknesses shine through, he still loves me and supports me. He is all I want in a man, he fulfills every fantasy I have and more. His kisses are enticing, addicting...drawing me in, trapping me in a sweet trance. It's amazing how this man can put up a tough guy front yet be so attentive and loving in the bedroom. I am beginning to understand him, every face he tries to put up to block out others. I know that no matter how much he closes himself off, he'll still let me in with him. He told me that I am the reason his soul is at peace, that put a tear in my eye. He put himself out there, showed me the vulnerable side of him, and I embrace him fully to show him that I am here for him in every way.
"Hey Caro....guess what we are going to do today?" Mike asks, sleep still evident in his voice.
I chuckle at the excitement in his tone, the light shining in his eyes. "Hmm....I don't know. What are we doing today?"
He leans down and gently places a chaste kiss on her lips. "We are going to get you a ring. Not just any ring, no. My soon to be wife will wear a ring that tells every one else that you are mine. I want it clear that other men have no chance."
I fight the urge to roll my eyes at this macho statement. I guess no matter how sweet he can act, he is a man, and still acts like a neanderthal at times. While part of me is irritated a little by this statement, I try to figure out why the other part of me is getting so turned on by that macho statement of his. I can sit here all day and preach that I'm an independent woman and I can take care of myself, but at the end of the day I relish being taken care of by Mike Logan. For once I let the more feminine side of me be in control.
"I want what ever makes you happy, Mike. I want nothing more than to please you and keep you satisfied." I tell him, looking straight in his eyes so that he can see that I mean every word I say to him.
I let out a small gasp when he quietly growls. I shiver at his response to my words, instinctively grinding my hips in to his. I feel his hands grip tightly at my waist, his nails digging slightly in to my skin. His glare makes me tremble slightly. I wonder if he knows how he affects me. He probably does, and enjoys making me squirm. That sneaky bastard, but I love him any way!
"You want to keep me satisfied? You already have me completely satisfied, baby. Speaking of baby, I know from the bottom of my being that you will be the most awesome mom ever. I can't wait to watch you grow with our child, and then to hold them in my arms. Life will be absolutely perfect when that happens, Caro. Yeah, you will make the transition from career woman to beautiful mother." Mike pours out, speaking from the bottom of his heart. Already he has been so open in his feelings, and has been sharing them with me. It makes me feel wanted and needed when he opens up to me.
I try to not let the tears fall, but I fail at that task. He wipes away the moisture with a tender touch of his rough hands. "I'm sorry, the tears fall before I can stop them."
"That is okay. Let it out my love. You can't keep everything bottled up inside. You deserve some one to love you and always stand by your side. I will never leave you, or hurt you. I would rather die than hurt you in any way. I want you as my wife and mother of our children, because I believe that you are the most beautiful woman on Earth. I am so thankful and honored that you chose me." Moisture glitters at the corners of his eyes as the words leave his mouth in a flurry. He then leaves a storm of kisses all around my face, then claims my lips, melding his to mine in a searing kiss.
Only when we both have a desperate need for air do we part. Oh my God this man is amazing, thank you Lord for sending him to me. "Thank you my love. I am your beautiful woman and future mother of our children. I give myself completely over to you, you have my heart in your hands, please be careful with it."
"I will always be careful, sweetheart. I pray that you have already conceived our child. I can't wait to start out family." He says in a low yet powerful voice. "I love you Carolyn, with all that I am."
"I love you too. I can't wait to start our family either. C'mon, let's practice some more handsome. I need to feel you inside me...need you so badly." I whisper in his ear, enjoying when he twitches at the tone of my voice.
As we make love again, thoughts are flying through my head. I know that what ever the future brings we can face it because we are strong together. From this moment on,I am no longer just a career woman. I am also a wife, and will be a mother. I am so excited! I can't wait to see what happens next!
