Worth Every Second
Ben Edwards x Latina.
YALL GO WATCH MY MANS.
WARNINGS: SMUT MDNI 18+!!!
The plan had been simple. Be ready by six. Call the car. Arrive on time. Smile through the vows, the toasts, the small talk.
But plans didnât mean a damn thing when Ben Edwards had his hands on you.
You were supposed to be putting on your heels when his arms came around you, chest to your back, his lips grazing the soft spot just under your ear. One kiss turned into another, teeth grazing, his hands already roaming over the silk of your dress.
âBenjamin,â you gasped, trying to keep your voice steady, âweâre late.â
âMm,â he hummed against your throat, dragging the straps of your dress lower. âWorth it.â
Your phone buzzed again from the nightstandâdriver threatening to leaveâbut by then he had already turned you, pressing you into the wall, his eyes dark and hungry. âYou expect me to sit through vows, stare at you in this dress, and keep my hands to myself?â His grin was sharp, wolfish. âNot a chance, babe.â
By the time he finally sank into you, you were clawing at his shoulders, lips muffling your moans against his neck. He fucked you hard against the wall, each thrust rattling a picture frame nearby, his voice low and rough in your ear.
âSay my name. Louder. Let them hear why weâre late.â
When you finally staggered out of the apartmentâdress wrinkled, hair a little wild, lipstick smeared across his jawâBen looked smug as sin.
Charlie Platoon noticed immediately.
The moment you walked into the reception, Raifeâs smirk spread like wildfire. His gaze lingered on your throat, on the blooming hickey Ben had branded there.
âDamn,â he drawled loud enough for everyone at the table to hear. âGuess traffic wasnât the only reason you two were late.â
The boys erupted. Whistles, laughter, table-slapping. Even Raifeâs girlfriend chuckled behind her glass.
Mortification burned your cheeks, but Ben? He thrived on it. He slid his arm around your waist, pulling you flush against his side, his voice carrying easily over the noise.
âJealousyâs a bad look, Raife. Not everyone gets to go home with someone who looks like her.â
The table roared. Raife groaned, his girlfriend elbowing him with an I told you so look.
You muttered, âYouâre impossible,â but Ben leaned down, lips brushing your ear with a promise.
âCareful, beautiful. Keep saying that, and Iâll show you just how impossible I can be.â
Minutes later, you slipped away under the pretense of the restroom. Ben followed without hesitation.
The lock clicked, and suddenly you were bent over the counter, dress shoved up, Benâs hands gripping your hips hard enough to bruise. His thrusts were sharp, relentless, his teeth grazing your neck as he bit down to mark you again.
âYou think I was gonna sit there through speeches, through dancing?â His growl vibrated against your skin. âWhen I could be buried inside you like this? Not a fucking chance.â
You came undone against him, muffling your cries against your hand. He followed with a low groan, hips pressing deep as he spilled into you.
When you both slipped back to the table, flushed and breathless, Raife smirked knowingly. âReally couldnât wait, huh?â
Ben only grinned wider, pressed a kiss to your temple, and fired back, âWaitingâs never been my strong suit. Especially not with her.â
Later, the slow songs began. The lights dimmed, the noise softened. Before you could argue, Ben tugged you to your feet, ignoring the whistles from his platoon. His hand found the small of your back, his forehead brushing yours as you swayed together.
For once, he wasnât smirking. His eyes softened, his touch firm but tender.
âYou look like trouble,â he murmured, his lips barely grazing yours, âbut you feel like home.â
Your chest tightened. You kissed him, gentle this time, lingering, and the world fell away.
The spell broke when the DJ called for the bouquet toss. You tried to slip into the background, but Ben gave your ass a playful smack. âGo on. Letâs see what youâve got.â
The bouquet soared through the air, petals scatteringâand of course, it landed right in your hands.
The room erupted. Charlie Platoon was on their feet, cheering like it was a championship game. Raifeâs voice cut through the noise: âGuess we know whoâs next, Edwards!â
Ben didnât even hesitate. He crossed the floor, scooped you into his arms, bouquet still clutched in your hand, and kissed you like a man who wanted the whole world to know you were his.
âLooks like youâre stuck with me, baby,â he whispered against your lips.
And you knew you didnât mind at all.
The ride home was unbearable. His hand rested on your thigh the entire time, thumb teasing higher and higher, grin smug every time you shifted in your seat.
âYouâre already thinking about it,â he murmured low enough for only you to hear. âHow many times Iâm gonna make you scream before sunrise.â
And he was right.
The second the door closed, he shoved you against it, bouquet tumbling to the floor. His mouth claimed yours, his hands dragging your dress up, grinding into you until you whimpered.
âYou looked too damn good tonight,â he growled, sliding your panties aside. âDrove me crazy pretending I wasnât hard the whole fucking time.â
He took you hard and fast against the wall, then slower on the couch, then again in bed where urgency melted into something deeper. He kissed down your body, memorizing you with his mouth, his hands, like he needed to etch every detail into memory.
Because you both knew he was leaving soon.
âCanât get enough of you,â he groaned, flipping you onto your stomach, taking you from behind with a brutal rhythm. âNot with the time weâve got left. Gonna miss this. Gonna miss you.â
Your body clenched around him, his desperate words tipping you over the edge. You cried out, voice muffled in the sheets, and he followed with a guttural growl, collapsing against you.
But he wasnât done. Not tonight.
He turned you onto your back, slowed his pace, kissed you like he had all the time in the world even though he didnât. âEvery time Iâm gone,â he whispered against your lips, âyouâre all I think about. Youâre all I want to come back to.â
Tears burned behind your eyes as you clutched him tighter, wrapping your legs around him like you could keep him here forever. He made love to you until dawn, until your voice was hoarse from moaning his name, until your body trembled and begged for rest.
By the time you collapsed together, the bouquet lay forgotten on the nightstand, petals scattered across the wood.
Ben pressed a final kiss to your temple, his voice low and rough with exhaustion. âGuess catching that bouquet wasnât such bad luck after all.â
His arm tightened around you, already pulling you closer, unwilling to let go.
Because with deployment looming in just a few days, he wasnât wasting a single second.
