Layan

It’s been a year since Elijah claimed me, an amazing, happy year. We’ve spent the time slowly getting to know each other, mentally and physically.

True to his word, Elijah has taken his time, letting me go at my pace when it comes to intimacy. I’ll admit, I had no idea there were so many ways to find pleasure without ever having actual penetration. But he and I explored them all, learning every possible way to make the other come undone.

When the time had finally come and I was ready to try to have him inside me, we had gone very slow. It had hurt.

Not as much as the first time, but I have enough scar tissue that it had hurt to have all of that broken up and stretched. I had cried and Elijah tried to stop several times, but I wanted this. I wanted to have everything with this man, so we pushed through. In the end, he had thrust into me quickly, breaking up some of my scar tissue and after the initial sting and throbbing subsided, Elijah took my body into a whole other world of pleasure.

After that first time, it had gotten easier and every time we were together, the pain was less and less until now, there is only pleasure, and I can’t get enough of my man. He loves it, always willing to oblige me when I tell him I need my dose of Elijah, which is pretty much every day.
