Chapter 278
~Zara’s POV~
We reached our peaks together, his name tumbling from my lips as he filled me with his essence.
His hands cradled my face, his forehead resting against mine.
"You are the most precious thing in this world to me, Zara," he breathed, his gaze searching mine.
Deep down, I nodded, not trusting my voice because he was all I wanted.
I kissed him again, this time gently, just like he did. His body shuddered as the last wave of his orgasm washed over him.
He pulled me close, his arms wrapping around me. My head rested against his chest, his heartbeat thundering in my ear.
The steady rhythm soothed me, and I felt myself relax, the day’s fatigue finally catching up.
As the night unfolded, our connection deepened, the bond between us stronger than ever. It wasn’t just passion—it was love and trust.
The warmth of his arm wrapped around me and his steady breathing against my hair brought me a sense of peace I hadn’t felt in weeks.
"I needed this," I murmured, tracing small circles on his chest.
"So did I," he replied softly, pressing a kiss to my temple.
I closed my eyes, letting his warmth envelop me. "Snow?"
"Yes, love?"
"Thank you," I whispered.
"For what?"
"For loving me this much."
Snow pulled me closer, his hand stroking my back soothingly. "It’s impossible not to."
I smiled, looking into Snow’s eyes. "Is that so?" He wriggled his brows playfully. "Hmm. I said to make me breathless. I wasn’t expecting a slow..."
He cut me off before I could finish. "You said to make you breathless, and I did love. I made love to you and not just mindless fucking."
My smile grew into a faint blush as Snow pressed a soft kiss to the top of my head.
"I love you and that’s what matters."
"Love you more, honey."
"I love you most."
"I smiled at him, knowing I may win. "To infinity and beyond."
"To eternity, babe."
"Forever, honey." My smile broadened.
"And ever, my love."
"Kisses." I pressed my lips against his swiftly before pulling back."
"Looks like I won. I got the last word."
"No, I did," I argued.
Snow had a slow smile on his face. "Sleep, love. You need it."
"Will you be here when I wake up?" I asked, fighting to keep my eyes open.
