Sweet Hell (21 page)

And she needed him inside her now.
"Dionysus,” she begged, not caring about the crack in her voice. “Please."
He looked up at the shattered sound, his lips wet with her juices, and recognized her need. The need clearly echoing in his own eyes and fractured voice. “Yes, Josie. I'm coming."
He rose above her, a column of strength that had been tested, corded arms straining under his desire. He kissed her once. A hasty, luscious joining of their lips. And then he sank deep inside her.
Appeasing her yearning as only he could. Feeding her with his love and energy and spirit. Two mortal bodies wrapped around each other, on a heavenly journey none could ever replicate. A passion flavored with honeyed wine and sparkling sugar.
As Dionysus spent himself, spilling into her, she took him on a wave that was as gentle as it was powerful. Throwing her to the shore, yet catching her in its soft hand at the same time. Raising her up. Making her new. Erasing every doubt and fear she'd ever had about loving.
And as their heartbeats steadied, he held her. He kissed her. And said, “You know what would be really awesome right now? One of your cannoli."
Josie laughed, hitting him playfully in the chest until he pinned her to the bed and began to love her all over again, not letting her out of the bed until nighttime descended.
Only then did they pad downstairs, giggling like children. They sneaked into the bakery and fed each other that cannolo. Or four.
