Chapter 3 can we just pretend

A/N Okay, so finally updating this story. Sorry it took me so long to get around to this. I think this will be the last chapter I will write for this story. I'm going to work on some other stuff not within in the Lunar Chronicles universe but I hope you guys continue reading my work. Your comments mean a lot and I will always try to respond. Thanks and enjoy the conclusion of Can we just pretend.

Warning: be aware of the smut.

She kisses me as confirmation. Scooting my body down hers I place my mouth on her entrance. She sucks in a breath at the contact and I smile against her skin. Breathing in her heady scent I trace my tongue along her curves and circle the little bud at the apex of her thighs. Lifting my head up to steal a quick glance at her, I see a glorious sight before me. With her head thrown back and her back arched up, my Winter makes my heart swell with desire.

Covering her body with mine, I gently kiss her swollen lips. She deeps the kiss and hooks her ankles around my back. I run my hands along her bare skin and breathe her in.

Pushing the hair back from her face, I look into her liquid gold eyes and smile. I am rewarded with one of her sweet reassuring smiles.

Taking one of her hands in mine, I place kisses on her palm and wrist.

" Winter.. Are you sure you are ready?" I ask as I readjust myself near her entrance.

Her only response is a returning kiss on my knuckles.

I try to be gentle and cause as little amount of pain as I can but she winces as I enter her. She lets out a soft whimper and my heart sinks.

She places a gentle kiss against my throat and she trails them along my jaw to ease my worry. I still myself within her to give her time to adjust.

She starts arching her back for more, I hold her hips down with one hand and thrust in till the hilt. Pulling back her lip quivers and a moan slips from her mouth. How can I deny her what she wants?

Pushing back in, I feel even more now the heat and wetness of her core. I can barely contain a groan of pleasure. Her hands trail up sides and explore my chest while she takes shuddered breaths.

"Jacin.."

It is no small satisfaction, hearing my name on her lips. It awakes some primal need within me and I quicken my thrusts.

Flipping over so that she is straddling me, I push deep into her lifting my lips off the ground. With her head thrown back and thighs trembling I can feel her pulse around me and I know that she is close. She beings grinding her hips against mine and it takes so much restraint to not come undone from her ministrations.

I reach in between us and rub her swollen bud lightly with my thumb which makes her shudder with pleasure and is all the encouragement I need. I trace circles on her clit with my fingers while taking her with long deep thrusts.

I know my release is coming soon but not before hers. Carefully rolling her on to her back again, I take one of her nipples in my mouth. Suckling gently, while I roll my hips into hers she begins to shake. She tightens her grip on my shoulders and stills her hips which makes my thrusts deepen.

Her moans stick in her throat and only a deep breath escapes her lips as her core tighten around me. She almost collapses against my chest but I hold her up and let her ride out the waves her climax.

She stares down at me with heavy eyelids and seeing that lusty expression is when my climax crashing into me and stars explode behind my lids.

Panting I lean her down against my chest and hold her tightly.

A giggle escapes her as she nuzzles her face into the crook of my neck.

I can't help but smile and let out a breathy laugh. I never imagined I would ever get this close to Winter. This moment feels untouchable. I know this might be the only time that we have together like this and I won't waste it thinking about the consequences. Damn the queen… I only serve the princess.
