Chapter 405 - The proposal (1/2)

Almost an hour later, the couple lay breathless on the bed with Amy cuddled warmly inside Edward's n.a.k.e.d arms.

He held her so closely you would think someone else was trying to take her away. Her back was to his front and while both arms circled her shoulders, he had one leg locking hers to the bed.

His nose was buried in her hair and Edward was beyond comfortable breathing in the scent of her floral shampoo.

They were both quiet as they reflected on what had just happened.

S.e.x wasn't something Amy had as regularly as she suspected Edward did. He was the practical example of 'What Women Want'; if there were a poster to be made about that particular subject, Edward would probably make cover image.

She wasn't a v.i.r.g.i.n, oh no but she could never compare any of the men she had been with to Edward. He was a god in bed. He knew all the right places to kiss and squeeze.

He knew when to go very fast and when she needed him to slow down. Amy had felt giddy all over and the feeling had lasted even long after they were done. She didn't want it to end.

At first, when he had tried penetrating her, it had been painful, extremely. She'd hissed so sharply, he'd retracted himself to look at her.

”You're so tight. Are you a...”

She shook her head, she wasn't. She just hadn't been with a man in a while and when she explained this to him, Amy saw the glint in his eyes.

He was happy to be her first in a while. He expressed this with a very warm and long kiss.

”I need you right now,” he'd told her after releasing her lips then slowly, with practiced gentleness, he'd re-entered her.

The pain was sharp and lasted for a few minutes. Edward had rested in her until she got used to his size then he'd withdrawn himself and entered again.

He did it till she was really wet and entering her became easier. And then he started moving. Naturally, Amy's legs had gone round his waist pressing him closer to her.

Her arms remained in his hair and both m.o.a.n.e.d and growled as they exercised rights over each other's body.

They were a while and by the time both were done, Edward's back was a cl.u.s.ter of scratches from Amy's nails and her hair was at risk of breaking from the way it was tangled.

”That was awesome,” he had remarked as he rolled beside her.

Then, she had been too dazed to speak, but now as they cuddled, she whispered back,

”It was beyond awesome.”

From behind her, Edward smiled. He let out a deep breath and adjusted so that he could pull her even closer.

”Wanna go again?”

Amy laughed, ”Right now?”

”I mean the only thing stopping us is us.”

With a smile on her face, Amy turned around so that her b.a.r.e front was to Edward's. She looked up at him even as he wrapped his arms tighter around us.

”Time is also stopping us. I have to rest so that I am productive at the office today and work starts in–” she glanced at the clock on the wall opposite her bed. ”–about eight hours.”
