She could feel his warm breath against her ear; his body was perfectly aligned to hers. She laid there, not quite awake, not really asleep, pleasantly cocooned in piles of down filled bliss. The room was still dark, though she knew it must be morning. She stuck a foot out from under the covers to test the temperature, and then quickly pulled it back in and snuggled deeper into the blankets as he pulled her closer to his warmth.
She knew they should get up soon, but her last thought before she fell back to sleep was a feeling of contentment she had not felt in a long time. She woke to a kiss on the shoulder and the sound of a crackling fire. “Mmmmm you lit the fire, you are absolutely wonderful.” She whispered, as he crawled back in bed with her. She turned into the crook of his arm and laid her head on his chest, her eyes still closed, she could feel his heart steadily beating in her ear. While she listened to the low rumble of his voice as he talked of the things they had planned for the day (most of them obligations) her fingertips, absently trailed a path down his chest and across his stomach. She drank in the musky scent of his body. His hand was moving up and down her back and the heat from his body was making her lose her train of thought. And then she realized his voice had turn deeper and raspier and his heart was beating faster than it had been.
She lifted her head and, when she finally opened her eyes she looked up through sleep tousled hair and into a sexy pair of green eyes filled with a lust so fiery, it sent shivers right down to her soul. His lips covered hers before she could form another thought, seeming to devour her very being. His mouth left hers and started traveling down her body, each stop creating an inferno hotter than the last. When his lips had traveled down to her toes and oh so slowly back up her body his hot mouth found hers again. He was ready for her, she could feel his hardness against her soft skin.
“I want you now” he growled, but she was not going to let that happen just yet and flipped him over on his back letting her mouth sear a path down his body paying special attention to some parts more than others. She took her time exploring his body and when he could stand it no more he flipped her back over. Pulling her arms above her head he looked into her passion clouded eyes smiled devilishly, winked and took her with a passion that branded her soul. He was at once, playful and serious, tender and rough, submissive and domineering.
They spent a long while enjoying each other until once again sleep beaconed. They fell asleep wrapped around each other and her last thought before drifting off “What a perfect day this was turning out to be.”
