Her entire body trembled with such intense pleasure that she felt as though she were floating. Ivan withdrew his fingers before latching onto her core, lapping her honey like a hungry wolf, his eyes closed as if he were savouring a delicacy meant solely for him....only him.
While Evelyn was coming down from her euphoric state, Ivan had risen to his feet in front of the bed and in one swift motion, he shed his black briefs, standing tall and proud as he took in her beautifully unravelled state.
Not once did his molten red eyes left her as he absorbed every single detail of her undoing: the way she trembled, the way her body arched, her golden eyes rolling back, her lips parted as she cried his name, right down to the uneven rhythm of her breathing and the frantic beat of her heart.
Everything.
It gave him immense delight to know that it was solely because of him that she was like this. His gaze drifted lower, taking in the graceful curve of her neck marked by his touch, all the way down to her beautiful, supple breasts, rising and falling with each breath she drew. He loved her, every part of her, down to her toes, and he would not trade this moment for anything else in the whole wide world.
His mind was flooded with thoughts of loving her, worshipping her, and ravaging her all at once, leaving him utterly lost beneath the weight of emotions he had never felt for any other woman in his life.
For him, nothing and no one could ever compare to his Evelyn. No one could hold even a grain of salt against her, let alone measure up to her entirely. And tonight, he would give her an experience that would be forever etched into the deepest recesses of his soul.
As he watched her slowly come down from her state of bliss, he climbed back onto the bed, wanting her to unravel once more, but this time not beneath his mouth or fingers, but with him buried deep inside her. He ached to feel what his fingers had felt, and without further hesitation, he settled himself between her legs once again.
Bending down, he let his large, strong body hover over hers as he inched closer to her face, where her hazy golden eyes were already fixed on him. Staring into each other’s eyes, he whispered, "Are you okay?"
Eve gave a small nod and lowered her gaze shyly, making him smile softly at her. He caressed her cheeks with the backs of his fingers and called her gently, "Evelyn."
Eve’s eyes snapped back to his, as it had been a long time since she had heard him say her full name, and she studied his gorgeous face with bright, innocent eyes.
Leaning in further, he whispered, "You make me so happy....did you know that?"
She blinked as she read the raw emotion in his mesmerising eyes, then slowly lifted her limp hands to cup his cheeks, making him close his eyes briefly at her tender touch. He wrapped his hands around her wrists and pressed a kiss to each one, sending her heart fluttering like a bird’s wings against her chest.
A beautiful smile bloomed across her face at his gentle affection, and then she heard him say softly, "I want to feel all of you, Evelyn....may I?"
Understanding his words, she gave him another shy nod, the colour of his deep crimson eyes reflecting softly on her cheeks. Lost in her beauty, he wordlessly captured her lips with his in a kiss so tender it seemed to convey the thousand things he could not bring himself to say in that moment, and Eve embraced him wholeheartedly.
She wrapped her arms around his neck, letting her hands trail down to his muscular back, which flexed subtly beneath her touch.
Ivan wrapped his strong arms around her as well, embracing her soft, bare body completely, feeling every curve, every inch of her that sparked like electricity beneath his touch.
They continued their slow, heartfelt kiss as his hands roamed over her before gliding back to her inner thighs. He parted them gently, adjusted his hard member, and brushed against her sacred place, coating himself with her juices.
She moaned softly at the friction his actions caused and gasped, allowing him to deepen the kiss. She continued to feel his thick, hard length pressed against her weeping womanhood, where pleasure began to build once more.
After a few slow strokes, he stilled and drew back just enough to speak, his breath warm against her skin. "This will hurt a little....but I promise it will ease soon." His palm cradled her cheek, thumb brushing softly as he asked, "You trust me, don’t you, my Eve?"
Her hands continued to wander over the solid warmth of his back, feeling the flex of muscle beneath her fingertips as she whispered, "Always..."
At her confirmation, he gave her a devastating smile and wrapped one arm around her waist. With the other, he guided himself to her soaking entrance, brushing his blunt tip against her core once, then again, before finally pushing halfway inside her. At the same time, his hand found her sensitive nub, circling it gently, anchoring her in sensation and drawing her focus away from the sharp sting as he slowly claimed his place within her.
"Ivan!" Eve rasped, stiffening as she felt the sudden intrusion below. Beneath the sharp sting, all she could do was cling to him as though her life depended on it. She felt so achingly full that her fingernails dug into his shoulders, something he did not mind in the least. Ivan stilled, keeping his sharp gaze fixed on her, watching every reaction closely.
He continued to rub her nub gently, giving her time to adjust. He saw the pain etched across her features, her body trembling, her eyes squeezed shut, with tiny beads of tears clinging to the corners of her lashes.
"You’re okay, baby... just try to relax, Eve..." he murmured in a heavy, restrained voice, as though he himself were in pain. The sound made her flutter her wet eyes open, finally taking in his face clearly, and she saw how tightly he was holding himself back. The veins along his forehead and neck stood out starkly, a testament to the control he was forcing upon himself.
And he was. Ivan felt as though he was on the verge of losing his mind while sheathed within her, the way she clenched around him so tightly making him feel as if he might explode. Every instinct screamed at him to move with wild abandon, but Eve’s pain-filled expression was the only thing holding him back.
By God, it was bloody hard.
On meeting her eyes, he felt the tension in her body slowly begin to ease.
Bending down, he kissed the corner of her eyes before whispering, "I’m going to move completely in."
At his words, her eyes widened, and panic coloured her voice. "Completely in?" She shook her head. "I-Ivan, I can’t....it won’t-"
"It will, and you can." With that, in one swift movement, he pushed fully inside her, filling her to the brim and a low groan of ecstasy tearing from his throat.
Eve gasped sharply, the air knocked from her lungs by his size, and she heard him hiss under his breath, "Fuck....you’re so tight."
Ivan stilled at once when a sob escaped her, and she shook her head again. "I-Ivan, I can’t... it’s too much," she quivered, her nails digging deeper into the skin of his broad shoulders.
"Shhh... baby. Look at me," he spoke through clenched jaws. Bending down, he began planting soft kisses over her face, whispering, "You’ve taken me whole, don’t you realise that? You’re perfect for me... fuck. You were made for me, baby."
He tightened his grip around her waist, preventing the escape she instinctively tried to make in that moment.
"I-Ivan!" she exclaimed weakly, tears streaming down her face as she tried to explain just how full she felt. In her distress, she clenched around him even harder, and he thought he might climax from that alone.
Summoning every shred of restraint, he whispered, "Just breathe, Eve... you’re doing so well. I promise it will get better. Just look at me and breathe." He continued to coax her gently, urging her to focus on his voice. At the same time, he kept rubbing her sensitive bundle of nerves, trying to ease her once more.
Gradually, it began to work. Eve listened to him, taking slow, deep breaths as she looked into his eyes with her tear-stricken gaze.
It pained Ivan’s heart to see her like this, yet he knew this moment had to pass. All he could do was continue planting soft kisses over her face, whispering sweet reassurances to calm her, silently hoping it would be enough.
