Her orgasm only just triggered his own, so close was he to the edge just feeling her wrapped around him, arms and body and knees pressing against his hips...he was back in that paradise where death was forgotten, and all that existed was the woman he loved and the things she made him feel.

At that moment, it was bliss, the greatest pleasure he had ever known. Coming with a growl as his own head fell back against the rim of the tub with a dull thunk, body arching just a little as he rocked up into her, his arms wrapped tight around her to keep her from slipping as he lost control, spiraling straight into heaven and coming slowly, so slowly back down to himself.

"I love you." he rasped with a small smile, gently tugging her forward as the last tremors of pleasure slid through both of them so that she could rest her head against his shoulder. "I know lotta men say that in the heat of passion...that you can't trust a word comes out of a man's mouth when he's in bed, but that ain't true for me. You know that. When I tell you I love you...that I can't endure without you...that I'd move Heaven and Hell in your name, I mean every goddamn word of it."
