The sun shone brightly in the cloudless sky, its rays streaming through the glass and warming the room. I blinked open my eyes, feeling the heat against my tanned skin as I stretched my arms above my head, letting out a soft yawn.
Xavier lay next to me, his body relaxed, one hand tucked behind his head while the other rested on my thigh. His chest rose and fell with each slow breath, his lips slightly parted in peaceful slumber. I couldn't help but admire him-his body sculpted perfectly, a testament to the hours he spent in the gym. I caught myself squeezing my legs together, my gaze drifting downward before I quickly looked back up.
I traced my finger lightly across his warm skin, and he stirred, his chocolate-brown eyes snapping open and locking onto mine.
"Good morning, beautiful," he murmured, his voice thick with sleep.
My heart fluttered at the sound of his words, and I couldn't help but smile as I leaned in, pressing a soft kiss to his lips.
"Good morning," I whispered back. "Sleep well?"
"Very," he replied, still watching me intently. "How are you feeling?"
I paused, assessing myself. "I'm okay. Just a little pain, but nothing I can't handle."
Xavier's gaze softened, his concern evident as he leaned up on his elbows, studying me closely. Then, without warning, he pulled me beneath him, caging me in with his arms on either side of my head, his body pressing against mine, but careful to keep his weight off me.
I felt the undeniable heat of him against my stomach, his hardness pressing into my skin. My top had slid up just below my breasts, exposing more of my skin.
His eyes darkened, following the curve of my body before meeting my gaze again.
"What are you thinking about?" I asked and something shifted in me at the intensity of his stare.
A smirk spread across his face, seductive and knowing, and my stomach fluttered in response.
"My sex drive is way too high for the amount of sex I'm not having," he muttered darkly, his voice laced with hunger.
I swallowed hard, but before I could reply, he teased, "Are you regretting saying you'd wait?" His lips hovered near mine, the words sending a shiver down my spine.
"I don't regret it," I whispered, my breath hitching slightly. "I respect that you want to wait, and we will. Our wedding night will be unforgettable, but God, I want you now. Even if it's just a taste."
The words spilled from my lips before I could stop them, and the moment they did, a wave of heat washed over me. I had been in situations like this before, but this-this felt different. I felt flustered, vulnerable in a way I hadn't expected. His gaze was intense, full of adoration, lust, and something else, something deeper, that made my heart race and my skin flush.
Why did it feel like the first time all over again?

His eyes darkened, the brown shifting to a deep, molten black as his hand slid beneath my top, cupping my breast with a possessive grip.
The muscles in his arm flexed as he braced himself above me, his fingers teasing my nipple, sending jolts of pleasure through me. When he tugged, my back arched, a low moan escaping my lips.
I pulled him down, crushing my lips against his, both of us battling for control. The kiss was urgent, hungry-like we were desperate for each other, as though we might implode if we didn't get closer.
We broke apart for a breath, but his lips lingered near mine, brushing against me as he spoke, his voice dark and heavy with intent.
"I hope you're ready for more," he whispered, the heat of his words making my body react before he even touched me.
