Part 23: A Journey of Separate Hearts – Fulfilling Dreams
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

AN: This part will be NC-17 rated. First of all the story will also fit without reading part 23, I’ll take care of it. The next part will be normal PG-13 or PG rated.
It has been a while since “Surrender my Soul” – my last NC-17 rated story…but Carrie told me, “writing smut is like riding a bike or having sex (or so I've been told): it's something you never forget, no matter how long it has been.” And I agree…I completely got lost in writing it and the part is probably longer than expected. But I guess you won’t mind… *lol*
A special thank you to Lee Ann!! And Coucoune,s iss is for you, girl!

2330 Zulu (00:30 hrs West EDT)
Hilton Paris Hotel
Harm’s room, number 306
Paris, France

“…Yes, that’s it.ase,ase, Harm, don’t stop! Yes…yeeeessss…Oh my God …Please, Harm…”

“Haaarm!!!”
Mac sat up abruptly, breathing heavily, eyes wide open. It took her a long time to slow her breathing and to figure out why she had aned ned so unexpectedly. Her whole body was sweaty all over and she didn’t know why. She’d never slept that well in her life, but the few times she had been with Harm in one room or even in one ‘bed’, she had felt safe. No horrible nightmares disturbed her sleep when she was with him. It wasn’t any different with this time, she still felt like she was home, although she knemethmething had awakened her.
When Mac looked down at herself, slowly realization slipped in and the memory of the dream that she’d had before waking up, came back.
Even though she wore Harm’s oversized US Navy t-shirt, the sign of two erect nipples were visible. Furthermore an aching heat around her most sensitive point wasn’t deniable either.
Her skin was still sensitive and flushed as if Harm’s touching her whole body hadn’t been just a part of her last wonderful fantasy.
Surprisingly, as if Harm sensed her change of mood, he tightened the hold of his right arm around her waist.
Mac had to bite her lower lip and to remember all her marine discipline so as not to wake hp anp and seduce him this minute. But Harm didn’t respond any further. He still lay on his stomach, one arm around her with his head hidden under his pillow.
*He’s so sweet…handsome…and…damn sexy!*
Again Mac forced herself not to continue with these thoughts – it would only get her into trouble. She took a deep, hopefully calming breath and nervously tried to think of something that would distract her from this gorgeous looking sailor next to her.
*I’ll go into thehroohroom. Some cold water will cool me down!* thought Mac and nodded to convince herself.
“For sure it will…” Pause. “Great, marine, now you’re already talking to yourself!”
She glanced at the sleeping body lying next to her and admitted, “I’m already going insane because of you, flyboy.”
Cullyully she tried to loosen the grip of Harm’s hand on her hip without waking him up. Succeeding, she slipped out of bed and disappeared behind the bathroom door.

Some minutes and few splashes of ice cold water in her face later, Mac emerged from the bathroom believing that she could get back to sleep, but stopped immediately when she saw Harm.
He was still sound asleep, but now lying on his back. His left leg was bent, so that now the sheet only barely covered Harm’s upper body and groin. Both arms lay straight to each side – both hands grabbing the sheet under them as if he were gathering strength in order to bring his emotions under control. He wasn’t being very sssfussful with it because he tossed and turned his head and arched his back.
His eyes were still tightly shut, but murmurs from his slightly opened mouth echoed through the room.
At first Mac couldn’t understand what he was moaning so she listened to his ‘sounds’ more closely and gasped when she finally realized what he wasmurimuring.
“Mac…Sarah…OH Saraaaah...“
She had to lean on the wall behind her, suddenly very shaky on her feet.
*He’s dreaming…better, fantasizing about me, too. Oh my god, that’s so amazing and it’s turning me on all over again.*
Watching him dreaming made her hot, her body longed desperately for his touch.
The neck of her t-shirt had slipped so that her one shoulder was bare – uncovered. The sounds that Harm made drove her crazy and she started to caress and touch herself through the thin material. But that wasn’t enough – that wasn’t what she longed for now, hell, had longed for since that kiss on a pier in Norfolk that cold, foggy night.
Suddenly she realized what she had to do. This time Mac wouldn’t run and she for sure wouldn’t let Harm back away. Not this time.
Slowly she walked to the bed and stopped in front of it. Leaning down she grabbed the sheet still covering Harm, figuring he wouldn’t need it anymore, and tugged on it. To her surprise, Harm easily let go of it and Mac pulled it away. To memorize Harm’s imposing appearance Mac leaned back again. She took in every part of his incredible body:
the soft, deep black hair;
his male, angular face with those beautiful green-aquamarine eyes she knew so well and could drown in them so easily, now hidden behind his eyelids and lashes;
his strong shoulders, which she loved to lean on;
his well- muscled arms, which used to hold her when she needed it;
the broad chest with its steady rise and fall, hiding the most important treasure she hoped he would give her one day: his heart;
his muscular abs, which she longed to touch and feel under her fingertips,
the well-formed strong legs and his most sensitive and definitely most hidden spot she hoped to see soon.
Sure, he wasn’t 20 anymore, but everything about him did its best to conceal that fact.
Mac couldn’t stop herself anymore, so she placed a hand next to each of his legs, steadying herself when she leaned down and kissed the leg that was still bent. Magically he straightened it so that Mac easily could move forward not stopping her attack of feather light kisses on her way up. While alternating the sides of his legs she whispered softly, “I need you…desire you…long for you…want you…all of you!”
Harm stirred slightly, but didn’t wake up.
“Ok, sailor, you don’t want to cooperate? Guess, I need to convince you a bit more that reality is a lot better than your dreams,” she whispered in a husky tone.
On her way up his body, she slipped one leg between Harm’s. Kissing, caressing, teasing and biting his soft, male skin. But she avoided – at least for now – his manhood, vowing to herself that she would come back to that.
When she reached his naval she paid special attention to it – tracing her tongue in and out of it. Playing with the few hairs around it, leaving a hot wet trail. Finally she reached his chest with his already erect nipples. First she only rolled each nipple between her fingers, then she lowered herd tod to take one in her mouth, while one hand never stopped teasing the other tautly peaked nipple. First she softly kissed it, then kissing turned into nipping, sucking and gently biting.
Before Mac’s lips could envelope Harm’s other nipple, two strong hands pulled her suddenly, completely upwards, so that her face was only mere inches away from Harm’s.
“Mac…what are you doing?” he croaked, sounding shocked. But as she looked into the endless depths of his eyes, she only could see passion, desire and hunger. He definitely enjoyed what she was doing to him and truth to be told, he wanted more from her…so much more.
Mac pressed her body fully against his skin and his eyes darkened even more with desire, sparkles of pure lust shining in them. She took his face gently in her hands and answered him with a naughty grin around her lips. “Gee, Harm, I thought I’d made myself perfectly clear what I’m doing here? It’s not very charming to tell a woman that she doesn’t affect him in some way.”
Pure horror and shock was written all over his face, but before he could open his mouth to say anything, she claimed his mouth with hers, kissing him hard and demandingly. As her tongue begged for entrance he his lips parted willingly. Her tongue tasted and conquered every single corner of his warm mouth, loving the taste of him and never wanting to let go. But when the need for air became life saving, she broke the kiss.
Harm took the chance to finally respond to her previous statement. “Oh, Mac, if you knew exactly how ‘much’ you affect me…I just wasn’t sure if it still was only my imagination or real…”
Mac arched a brow and grinned mischievously. “So, you were fantasizing about me? Tell me what I was doing in yourams,ams, Harm!” Lowering her head again, she nuzzled his neck, biting teasingly on his right ear lobe and swirling her tongue inside his ear.
A deep, husky groan came out of his throat when she continued her assault on him. Harm had to concentrate hard not to come right now.
Closing his eyes and enjoying the feel of her warm soft lips on his aching skin, he found his voice to answer her question.
“Well, … first of all, you weren’t overdressed like now, Mac!”
With a macho grin on his face Harm pulled at the hem of her shirt. “You were completely nude and your skin was shining in the moonlight.”
Surprised about his honesty, she stopped her teasing and whispered seductively in his ear “Mmm, Harm, and are you planning to change that?”
Before realizing what had happened, he had lifted her leg from between his legs to a place next to his hip. Harm sat up, and she was now cradled on his lap, her legs encircling his waist.
His strong arms held her closely while his mouth plundered her mouth again.
*He is definitely the best kisser, I know!*
Harm kissed her senseless; she completely drowned in him. When he broke the kiss, she almost whimpered from the loss of his sweet lips on hers. The whimpering turned into lustful moaning when he placed kisses from her chin over her jaw to her neck. She had always loved to be kissed there, but it had never been as arousing as it was with Harm. He seemed to sense where she wanted to be touched, kissed and caressed.
Her one shoulder was still uncovered. When he first kissed then gently bit her collarbone, Mac sucked in her lower lip and dug her nails into his muscular shoulder blade.
A muffled “uh” reached her ears, but Harm only lowered his head deeper. But still Mac couldn’t feel him skin on skin – the cotton fabric was still in their way. She felt his hands moving under her shirt and shivered slightly at the unexpected warmth of his palms.
Even though him touching her was wonderful and paralyzing, Mac needed to feel his lips on her skin, longed for his mouth to suck on her breasts. She couldn’t stand it any longer and ordered him impatiently, “Rip it off, Harm.”
He slowly looked up to her face, pretending disbelief at what ad jad just heard. “You can’t be serious, marine. I ‘can’t’ just rip off a ‘property of the US Navy’ shirt. I would be charged for being disrespectful to the United States Navy. I can’t risk that!” He grinned mischievously back at her, not even starting to undress her.
A frustrated “aaarrgghh” was her first response.
“Get a rid of it! And that’s an order, Commander!!”
“Uhhh, are we pulling rank now, Colonel?”
“How dare you! You haven’t seen me fully pulling rank yet. So don’t risk it if you don’t think you can take it, squid.” Pure lust and fire sparkled in her eyes.
“Oh, as I told you before, Navy officers don’t back away from challenges. So I’m convinced I can take it.”
His arrogant grin and her uncontrolled desire made her furious. Mac pressed him back against the sheets and scooted backwards down his body to straddle him over his thighs. Not waiting one more moment she put her hands on the waistband of his boxers and pulled them down in one swift motion, not caring about taking them off completely. Her left hand grabbed his member firmly but gently while the other hand caressed his balls. Taken by surprise, Harm cried out her name.
“Ah, Sarah…noooo…uh…”
Mac looked back at him and teased him “Mm, Commander, can’t take this challenge??”
“No, I can…Please, don’t stop…oh my…”
Mac lowered her head back to his shaft, reducing the distance between her mouth and the tip of his hard penis.
Taking in its shape, length and scent entirely, she admitted to herself how she longed to feel him close. So she placed her lips so on on the sensitive skin, brushing and kissing it. But she couldn’t resist the urge any longer and took Harm’s incredible manhood into her mouth.
She sucked and licked on it, swirled her tongue around it, longing to taste every inch of it.
He had watched her every movement and was amazed by the feeling that Mac sucking on him gave him. He was even more aroused, although he didn’t think that was possible.
“Oooh baby…you’re the first… woman…who was ever able to take…me in from to…bto…bottom.” Harm let Mac know between his panting breaths.
To encourage her to suck harder on him, he arched his hips, sending his rod deeper into her warm, wet mouth.
Honored by his compliment, she obliged by quickening her pace on him, again using one hand to squeeze his balls.
Harm knew that he couldn’t hold back much longer, but he didn’t want to end it like that. Lovemaking should include both partners and he planned to fulfill exactly that.
“Mac…please…I’m close…I…want…please…”
She understood him even when he couldn’t say all the words to make her understand what she needed to do. So she released his cock, kissing the pre cum away.
When she licked her lips, tasting him on every level, he almost lost it. He sat up and pulled her close again, his mouth crashed down on hers, plundering it with a deep hunger only she could satisfy.
He was hot and driven wild only by her and when he made his way down to her breasts, this time Harm ripped the t-shirt off. Mac gasped slightly when the fabric was gone and she felt the chilly air on her bare skin.
But it wasn’t long before the heat of Harmon Rabb, Jr. warmed her up again. Kissing the valley between her breasts, inhaling all the female scent of her, he lingered there for a while. Definitely a while too long for Mac, so she whimpered “Please…Haaarmm…”
Harm looked up when she nearly cried out his name. She had closed her eyes and thrown her head back.
“Look at me, Mac.” he asked her softly, but when she didn’t react, his voice became a bit more demanding – better, commanding. “Mac! Look me in the eyes and tell me what you want me to do!”
Slowly she opened her eyes and connected with his eyes. He could swear that a light pink blush crept around her cheeks, but she followed his order and whispered, “I want to feel you, I want you to kiss and suck my breasts…please, Harm…”
Without thinking about it any longer, he dived into the feel of kissing her full, round breasts. He teased her already hardened peaks, swirled his tongue around each of them and made them even harder.
When he left this spot to conquer other parts of her well-trained, sexy body, he left her breasts and nipples in flames.
While getting closer to her core, Harm pushed her upper body down, so that she lay between his legs.
He realized in amazement that she wasn’t wearing panties. He never imagined that Mac was the type of woman that liked going commando. It was a side of Mac that was totally new to him – but damn sexy as well. He planned to find out everything about her. He wanted to know what she preferred or ikediked when making love, where her most sensitive spots were…
When he reached her womanhood, he backed away a few inches only to burn the view of her V-shaved vagina into his mind. He loved the way she shaved herself and the thought that he might do that for her sometime brought him close to the edge.
He softly blew on her skin and her whole body shivered because of this sensual feeling. Mac sighed deeply when his nose brushed her short curls and aroused skin. Leaving soft feather kisses on her inner thigh Mac became wetter and hotter than she already had been. She could no longer stand his teasing, so she tangled her hands in his hair, pulling him down and at the same time arching her back to welcome his mouth. Feeling her need, Harm lowered his mouth, opening the sensitive lips with his hungry tongue. When Harm’s tongue found its way deeper into her warm wetness a loud lustful moan escaped from her mouth, and she pressed Harm’s head even deeper into her center.
Harm himself was lost, helpless, drowning in her, taking in everything he could get. He lifted one hand to caress the special knot of nerves that made every woman wild and disoriented. First he barely came in contact with it – but even that caused a deep, husky “oooh” from Mac. Then he increased the pressure on her clit, massaged it, even traded his fingers’ place with his longing tongue to lick it.
Now it was Mac’s turn to toss her head, digging her fingers into his shoulders.
“Uh…Harm…ah…oh yeah…”
But he wasn’t finished with pleasuring her yet. Instead of his tongue Harm slipped two fingers inside of her, exploring the depths of her core as far as he could. Harm felt Mac tightening around his fingers, felt how strained and relaxed her inner muscles became and he could hardly wait to feel his cock inside her.
Sucking on her female, moist center again, she completely lost control, let go like she had never let go before.
Crying aloud, she was in heaven, flying on wings of love…Harm’s love.
Harm hungrily took in wave after wave of her sensual juices, left not a drop, licked every bit of her clean. He never imagined how wonderful a woman – this woman – could taste.
It took a while until she regained some of her composure and he soothed her, creating patterns of soft circles on her skin.
When she finally came dfromfrom her high, Mac looked in Harm’s eyes and could see the longing for more. She couldn’t deny it to him so she pleaded, “Harm, fill me. Come inside me!”
Without hesitation, Harm pulled her up to a sitting position. He grabbed her hips, lifted her up and positioned her wet center over his rock hard shaft. Then he lay back against the pillows. Slowly and softly she slid down his shaft moaning until his me fil filled the very depths of her core. Allowing her time to adjust to his size, Harm waited for Mac to start the rhythm.
He didn’t have to wait too long.
Mac placed her hands on his chest, squeezing his nipples when she slowly rotated her hips. Within seconds that wasn’t enough and she quickened the pace. Mac changed her motions from circle rotations to up and down strokes. Harm helped to lift her up and with his hands on her hips slammed even deeper into her.
Neither of them knew how long they were connected as one; they completely lost track of time. But they didn’t care. It felt so right to finally be lovers as if they were fulfilling their destiny.
They moved as fast and hard as they could, driving each other wild as demonstrated by the moans, groans and sighs that they made.
Both knew they were getting closer and closer to the edge, but neither wanted to miss any reaction from the other. So deep brown eyes met a pair of aquamarine-green eyes. Wherm qrm quickly looked down at her body, his gaze was forced to stop at her beautiful, perfect breasts, bouncing up and down at every stroke. Automatically one hand found its way to Mac’s breasts, kneading and pinching them, while his other hand slipped down to her core, finding her clit and massaging it, hoping that would increase her sexual experience.
Looking up again he found Mac’s eyes closed and her mouth open, letting out the sexiest moans he had ever heard from a woman.
Feeling Harm watching her, Mac opened her eyes and said in gasps “Harm…I…close. Oh…ah…I’m about to come…can’t…hold it…any…longer…”
“Don’t hold back, Sarah. Let it go, my beautiful. I’m here to catch you…”
Harm couldn’t say anything more, because a rush of joy forced him to forget everything around him. Only Mac and Harm were important now. No more words were needed.
Feeling herself tumbling over the edge she cried out Harm’s name over and over again, her whole body trembling with the pleasure both had created. When Mac’s inner muscles tightened around him one last time, he was las tas their two bodies melted into one in their own sexual finale.
Mac collapsed onto his chest, both were gasping for air, enjoying the all new feelings which came when two separate souls united like they had just done a few seconds ago.
Neither of them knew how long they lay there, but suddenly Harm said out loud more to himself than to Mac “Oh god, no!”
Worrying that Harm regretted what had just happened she asked anxiously, “What’s wrong, Harm? Tell me…Is it me…? Did I do something wrong?”
Realizing that Mac had heard him, there was no way not to tell her what was on his mind without giving her the feeling he regretted anything about this night.
“No, Sarah…you did nothing wrong! It was perfect – ‘you’ were perfect. It was so much better than anything I’ve ever dreamed. It’s me… I mean…” he struggled with words.
“I didn’t ask you if it…if it was safe…I…I didn’t think about any protection…I’m sor…”
Mac giving him a passionate, melting kiss stopped him.
When she left his lips, she smiled at him.
“Don’t worry about that. It’s all right. ‘I’ was the one, who started all this and I took care of the protection. I’m on the pill, Harm. It’s ok…don’t worry…” she soothed him, gently caressing his cheek.
Harm relaxed and tightened his grip around her waist, needing to hold her as close as possible.
Suddenly both felt very tired but before they finally drifted into sleep, she looked up at him again.
“Happy Valentine’s Day, my Love!”
A broad smile was on his face when he placed a soft kiss on her forehead.
“You are my everything, Sarah. I love you…”
Touched by his words and the fact that he had finally verbalized his feelings, tears of joy made their way down her cheeks.
“I love you, too.”
Gently, he thumbed them away. Harm wasn’t worried about her tears – he knew what those three words meant to her and he felt relieved to finally be finally able to say them to her. Although he knew long before this night, how he felt about her. And now he also knew how she felt about him. He was the luckiest man alive.
Mac watched him in amazement, then placed her head on his chest and sighed softly in delight before her lids got heavy and closed.
Sleep came easily to Harm and Mac – both had wonderful dreams of their first night together – as lovers.
