Native American History Month: Fiction Recommendations
And Then She Fell by Alicia Elliott
On the surface, Alice is exactly where she thinks she should be: She’s just given birth to a beautiful baby girl, Dawn; her charming husband, Steve - a white academic whose area of study is conveniently her own Mohawk culture - is nothing but supportive; and they’ve moved into a new home in a posh Toronto neighborhood. But Alice could not feel like more of an impostor. She isn’t connecting with her daughter, a struggle made even more difficult by the recent loss of her own mother, and every waking moment is spent hiding her despair from Steve and their ever-watchful neighbors, among whom she’s the sole Indigenous resident. Even when she does have a minute to herself, her perpetual self-doubt hinders the one vestige of her old life she has left: her goal of writing a modern retelling of the Haudenosaunee creation story.
Then, as if all that wasn’t enough, strange things start to happen. She finds herself losing bits of time and hearing voices she can’t explain, all while her neighbors’ passive-aggressive behavior begins to morph into something far more threatening. Though Steve assures her this is all in her head, Alice cannot fight the feeling that something is very, very wrong, and that in her creation story lies the key to her and Dawn’s survival.... She just has to finish it before it’s too late.
Bad Cree by Jessica Johns
When Mackenzie wakes up with a severed crow's head in her hands, she panics. Only moments earlier she had been fending off masses of birds in a snow-covered forest. In bed, when she blinks, the head disappears.
Night after night, Mackenzie’s dreams return her to a memory from before her sister Sabrina’s untimely death: a weekend at the family’s lakefront campsite, long obscured by a fog of guilt. But when the waking world starts closing in, too - a murder of crows stalks her every move around the city, she wakes up from a dream of drowning throwing up water, and gets threatening text messages from someone claiming to be Sabrina - Mackenzie knows this is more than she can handle alone.
Traveling north to her rural hometown in Alberta, she finds her family still steeped in the same grief that she ran away to Vancouver to escape. They welcome her back, but their shaky reunion only seems to intensify her dreams - and make them more dangerous. What really happened that night at the lake, and what did it have to do with Sabrina’s death? Only a bad Cree would put their family at risk, but what if whatever has been calling Mackenzie home was already inside?
Empire of Wild by Cherie Dimaline
Joan has been searching for her missing husband, Victor, for nearly a year - ever since that terrible night they'd had their first serious argument hours before he mysteriously vanished. Her Métis family has lived in their tightly knit rural community for generations, but no one keeps the old ways... until they have to. That moment has arrived for Joan.
One morning, grieving and severely hungover, Joan hears a shocking sound coming from inside a revival tent in a gritty Walmart parking lot. It is the unmistakable voice of Victor. Drawn inside, she sees him. He has the same face, the same eyes, the same hands, though his hair is much shorter and he's wearing a suit. But he doesn't seem to recognize Joan at all. He insists his name is Eugene Wolff, and that he is a reverend whose mission is to spread the word of Jesus and grow His flock. Yet Joan suspects there is something dark and terrifying within this charismatic preacher who professes to be a man of God... something old and very dangerous.
The Seed Keeper by Diane Wilson
Rosalie Iron Wing has grown up in the woods with her father, Ray, a former science teacher who tells her stories of plants, of the stars, of the origins of the Dakhóta people. Until, one morning, Ray doesn't return from checking his traps. Told she has no family, Rosalie is sent to live with a foster family in nearby Mankato - where the reserved, bookish teenager meets rebellious Gaby Makespeace, in a friendship that transcends the damaged legacies they've inherited.
On a winter's day many years later, Rosalie returns to her childhood home. A widow and mother, she has spent the previous two decades on her white husband's farm, finding solace in her garden even as the farm is threatened first by drought and then by a predatory chemical company. Now, grieving, Rosalie begins to confront the past, on a search for family, identity, and a community where she can finally belong. In the process, she learns what it means to be descended from women with souls of iron - women who have protected their families, their traditions, and a precious cache of seeds through generations of hardship and loss, through war and the insidious trauma of boarding schools.

YOU WLL NOT EXPECTED THIS ONE FROM ME
but here i am, your writing convinced me to this: 22 for the gesture + 19 for the dialogue for auston and mitch, the toronto boyfriends, goodbye and thank you for your service ily
MILOU! Welcome to the dark side hahaha ily2
Mitch Marner x Auston Matthews - "Let yourself cry, I'm here now."
Prompts: While someone demeans your lover, standing up for them. Either in word, or by physically placing yourself right in front of them as a protective barrier. + “Let yourself cry, I’m here now. You’re safe.” Warnings: Homophobia and gay slurs. And angst Tag list: @donttelltheelff, @zackcollins, @calermakar08
Tumblr media
“I’ll be right back,” Auston said, kissing Mitch’s cheek softly. “I’m just going to use the washroom, then we can leave.”
Mitch hummed. “Okay.”
He smiled and watched his boyfriend walk off towards the back of the bar. He stood from the table and stretched his arms over his head. Behind the bar, the battle of Alberta game played on several screens. It pained Mitch to see that. To have that reminder that they didn’t make it, that their season was over.
He looked away and took out his phone to mindlessly scroll through social media until Auston returned.
“You shouldn’t even be in the NHL,” someone said loudly to Mitch’s right.
He stiffened, but kept his expression neutral. He ignored them, opening his Instagram app.
“You suck,” the man sneered and he stepped closer. “The only reason you’re on the Maple Leafs is because they were so desperate, they’d even take someone like you.”
Mitch’s throat burned with unshed tears. He cleared it, but it only made it worse.
“Hey, fag, can you hear me? Or are you deaf as well as a terrible player?”
And there it was. The f-word that had followed Mitch around ever since he and Auston came out publicly as a couple. Mitch gripped his phone so tight, the plastic case dug into his palms.
He tore his gaze from his screen and dared to meet the eyes of the man. He didn’t say anything, he just stared him down.
The man was bigger than him. He wore an Oilers jersey and matching hat and held a beer can in his hand. “What?” he taunted. “Nothing to say, fag? You know, you should be ashamed of yourself. It’s bad enough that you’re one of them, but to flaunt it in everyone’s face? It’s disgusting.”
Mitch’s vision blurred with tears.
“Hey!”
Mitch nearly sobbed at the sound of his boyfriend’s voice.
Auston quickly stepped in front of Mitch, gripping his arm to thrust him behind him. “Leave him alone.”
The man snickered. “Or what?”
Auston straightened his shoulders. “I’m a hockey player. I know how to fight.”
Mitch made a soft noise and gripped the back of Auston’s shirt. “Let’s just go,” he whispered. “Please.”
Auston turned to face him, and his expression softened. He wrapped an arm around Mitch’s waist and steered him towards the exit. The man shouted something at them, but Mitch couldn’t hear him. His ears felt like they’d been stuffed with cotton balls. He just needed to get outside.
He practically threw the door open and stepped out into the mild spring air. Taking in a deep breath, he gripped Auston’s hand tightly.
Auston brought Mitch to the side of the building for a bit of privacy. “Are you okay?” Auston asked softly. He leaned down to be at eye level. “Baby, look at me.”
Mitch met Auston’s eyes and his jaw trembled. “I’m fine,” he croaked unconvincingly.
Auston sighed and wrapped his arms around Mitch’s frame. “Let yourself cry, I’m here now,” he cooed, reaching a hand up to run it through Mitch’s hair. “You’re safe.”
Mitch leaned against Auston and buried his face into the crook of his neck. Clenching his eyes shut, he let out a shuddered breath.
“I’m okay,” Mitch said, voice muffled. “Really, just… overwhelmed.”
Auston hummed and gently combed his fingers through Mitch’s hair with one hand while rubbing his back with the other. “It’s okay. I got you. That man is wrong, about everything. You’re incredible in every way, you hear me?”
Mitch nodded slightly. He sniffled and hugged Auston tightly. “I just… wish that didn’t happen.”
“Me, too,” Auston said with a slow sigh. “But I’m here now. We have each other, and the opinion of some jackass in a bar does not matter. What matters is how we feel about each other.”
“And what do you feel?” Mitch asked. He knew the answer, but he still wanted to hear him say it.
“You know how I feel,” Auston said lightly. He kissed the side of Mitch’s head. “I love you.”
Mitch smiled. With Auston, he could get through anything. “I love you, too.”

'Peter Pan & Wendy' star calls filming in Newfoundland 'magical'
The classic tale of Peter Pan has been reimagined in Disney’s new live-action adaptation.
A portion of “Peter Pan & Wendy” was filmed in Newfoundland and Labrador. Actor Alyssa Wapanatâhk, who plays the role of Tiger Lily, says the area felt like a true Neverland.
“The greenery is so magical, and everywhere you look it’s almost like a different landscape. I love that about it,” says Wapanatâhk.
Despite growing up in Alberta, Wapanat��hk says she was unaware how picturesque the eastern part of the country is.
“I had no idea Canada could have these beautiful landscapes, I’ve never been to the East Coast before,” she says.
“That kind of blew me away. Especially the whales, seeing the whales just kind of playing in the water… it was really beautiful.”
Wapanatâhk says she is grateful for the opportunity to take on such an iconic character.
“I tried to handle it with grace as much as I could. I really reminded myself every day that it was just a really special gift that I was given,” she says.
“When I think about carrying a gift such as Tiger Lily, I knew it had to be taken care of.”
A member of the Bigstone Cree First Nation, Wapanatâhk says representing her people was an important part of her experience.
“Our people, they have my whole heart and I want them to feel all of this with me,” says Wapanatâhk.
“When I was given the opportunity to share our culture, I knew that they were right there with me the whole time. I knew that they were going to see this, that our children and our babies, our grandmothers, everybody is going to see this thing. That means the most to me I think, just that they are going to be seen and represented in a good way.”
Wapanatâhk says playing the role of Tiger Lily is a once in a lifetime opportunity.
“It’s so special, it’s a big opportunity, and I just welcome it with open arms.”
According to Wapanatâhk, fans of Peter Pan can expect the adaptation to stay true to the essence of the original.
“The same greatness that Peter Pan had, just exploded with colour, with beautiful landscapes and the right representation. Everything is there that we could ever have wanted,” says Wapanatâhk.
“Peter Pan and Wendy” begins streaming on Disney+ on April 28.

“I Am YEG Arts” Series: Derina Harvey
Tumblr media
Gather around you that which you need to produce what you want. Oh, and while you’re at it, get to work! To Derina Harvey, there’s not much more to it than that. Except, of course, making music—something she and the Derina Harvey Band can’t do without. If you’ve never caught a live show, just imagine a “rockier” version of Great Big Sea, if fronted by Adele. Intrigued? It’s hard not to be. Harvey’s masterful storytelling and soaring vocals are nothing short of a call to action. An invitation to laugh more, celebrate more, and feel alive. This week’s “I Am YEG Arts” story belongs to Derina Harvey.
Tell us about your connection to Edmonton and how it has influenced your path.
Well, I grew up playing country and folk music, and Celtic classics, with my musical family in Wabush, Labrador. Then, when it was time for college, I followed my mother’s and sister's footsteps and went into post-secondary for the arts. In 2000, after graduating with a diploma in Music Industry and Performance from the College of the North Atlantic, I promptly headed west to follow the friends I made during the program who were moving to Alberta to pursue careers in the music scene. I may have had other ulterior motives for moving west too, as my best-friend-and-now-husband (and bandmate), Steve Pinsent, was one of these migrating classmates.
I arrived in Edmonton in 2002 and found work as a sound engineer for an Edmonton-based hotel-events team and with Sinclair, the band my college friends had formed. Touring around Alberta with Sinclair, I’d occasionally join them onstage playing and singing covers and originals, which was so much fun! We started attending Alberta Music seminars and began networking and soaking up industry information.
In 2004, Steve and I welcomed our first (of three) wee Albertan babies. As my maternity cheques were running out in the early weeks of January 2005, Steve looked in an actual paper copy of the Edmonton Yellow Pages and got me an audition at the East-Coast-themed Atlantic Trap and Gill. Manager Tanya Thorne gave me my first opportunity as a solo performer on weekdays, and I played both popular tunes and the traditional songs I grew up with. This helped keep a roof over our heads as I looked for more work. Eventually, I was asked by The Trap’s manager to put a band together for the weekend spots, and the Derina Harvey Band (dHb) was formed.
When two members of dHb moved back east, Scott Greene stepped in on electric guitar and harmony vocals. Scott’s long-time friend and bass player, Edward Smith, also joined us! Instantly, our audience begged for an album. We are completely independent, so it took some time to put together but, dHb released our first album in 2013 and then another in 2016…. By 2017 we had played with a few fiddle players: Matt O’Connor was in the mix, Alex Kusturok was with us in Tacoma adding his superb Métis and folk style to our sound. The uber talented Jessica Blenis also joins us on stage and lends her soaring harmonies and fiery fiddles on all our recordings since 2017.
We had all grown up on Celtic music but had focused on our other musical educations and collaborative projects until dHb was formed. The authenticity of returning to our roots, the dedication to musicality, and the blend of genres lent us a fresh take on traditional favourites, while maintaining the integrity of the covers. In songwriting, our original material has flavours of country, blues, rock, and pop—but wrapped in a woolly and woven East Coast Celtic tartan blanket! So, I suppose you could say that I walked off the plane in YEG with intentions to find my musical path, and Alberta’s audiences from Fort McMurray to Medicine Hat—and, of course, Edmonton—kept me on a road of authenticity.
How did you get your start as a singer/songwriter? Did one come more naturally than the other?
I was born into a musical family of four—five if you count the dog who played piano from time to time. Being on stage at five-years-old and being raised in a household where music and visual art were created and discussed daily, gave me an appreciation for the process. My parents, Ron and Sheilagh, wrote and released honest, observational-type songs and always had instruments all over the house that we were encouraged to play. My sister Kyna and I would also help them write and lend a hand in editing lyrics or arranging instruments and harmonies. Watching my father rehearse and perform with Labrador Black Spruce also gave me insights into industry do’s and don'ts.
When I was twelve, I visited my sister at the Ontario Institute of Audio Recording Technology and realized that creating music could be a real job! I was hooked! I wrote little songs and performed them with my friends and bandmates in high school. By the time I was in college, I’d received my first SOCAN cheque (while I was still in my teens) for a recording of a song I’d written for a college songwriting course! I was so grateful—and perhaps in shock.
What narratives are you drawn to as a storyteller?
With dHb, the songwriting feels like it's always maturing, yet still feels new, because the processes, plots, and prose often change. Sometimes songs are based on real-life situations, like the retelling of the resettlement process in the title track off our second CD, Rove and Go (2016), about a house that moves to a new home and the strength of the people who moved it. It came about as Steve played a progression on an acoustic guitar one evening and asked me, “what would you sing over this?” I came up with the chorus pretty quick, but the story came much later.
“The Fallen Man's Daughter” (2018) was the result of a collaboration with Ed Smith writing a tribute to his uncle and the men lost at sea when a fishing vessel went down off the coast of Newfoundland in 1994. A story sadly all too familiar is the loss of family, those who take care of us, and the legacy of love they leave behind. We worked with Alberta’s own Barrett Kelsko and created a music video for this song that was shot in both Newfoundland and Alberta.
Some of the songs we’re working on now for the new album range from fun, in-the-moment-driven party tunes, like “Up All Night” (already released), to deeper, inward, raw reflections, like another single we released, titled “Grow,” which reminds us to remember our strength when navigating obstacles in our path. Writing sometimes flows out in an unstoppable torrent, and “Grow” was like that—lyrics first, then progressions and accompaniment many months after—a true exercise in refinement over months and years. When it comes to narrative, I’d say the most important part for me is to have a story and a musical landscape that matches—to tell a story through song that I believe and can deliver with my entire heart.

What is a Derina Harvey Band live show like? How do you hope to make people feel?
I want to invite you to relax in a friendly environment, and tap your toe, and sing along. No matter where we are, in Malibu or Marystown, in Cold Lake or Canmore, I want you to walk away after the show still humming a lilting, lifting tune. Depending on the venue, you may get a barrage of high-energy tunes or a night of dancing, perfect for twirling in tall festival grasses! Or perhaps, in a theatre setting, you could expect a few more moving ballads and stories—in this seated setting, I want to make you laugh, maybe make you cry, and then make you laugh again before sending you home. Music can call us to action. It can help us celebrate or grieve, it brings us together, and all of that is what I want to offer at a dHb show!
Where have you seen your music show up that’s surprised you?
Somehow, somewhere in the world, one of our songs ended up as a sound used on TikTok, and as a result, this Edmonton-based band has listeners all over the planet! As tracked in 2022, about a million streams a month for dHb songs stems from our version of Tom Lewis’ classic, “The Last Shanty.” Our choice to put this song on our second album was made based on performing at Edmonton’s events and the crowds’ reactions to our set list! Our gratitude is unending.
Tell us about someone whose support and advice have guided your career.
So many wonderful pieces of advice over the years have been bestowed, and I try to remember them as often as possible. Encouragement from friends and family are, no doubt, on the list. My mother (Sheilagh Harvey) often quotes Dr. Wayne Dyer’s, “Gather around you that which you need to produce what you want,” and I find myself using this as a mantra.
When I attended a seminar with Kevin Blackmore of the legendary touring music-and-comedy act Buddy Wasisname and the Other Fellers, I asked what should be avoided in the industry. He responded, “negativity.”
Wade Pinhorn was my professor in college, and he would often remind the class to “leave the ego at the door—if you weren’t great you wouldn’t be here,” followed by, “Now get to work.” Also, about being true to yourself and not giving in to fits of extravagance or greed he said, “We don’t need much, do we?” All of these are grounding, and they bring me back to a purpose and ring with truth.
What’s the first song you ever remember wishing you’d written?
I’m not sure that I have ever wished I had written someone else’s song. I’m always happy that someone wrote a song that slaps or touches my heart. If a writer delivers a story that aligns with mine or makes me cry—which is the litmus test for me feeling a song—I just enjoy their work and am inspired by their brilliance!
Tumblr media
How important has collaboration been throughout your career?
I often have to pour over my choices for a while before making decisions. I think there are benefits to collaborating that range from encouragement and to refinement, to maybe helping me get out of my own way… past a block.
I love seeing how an idea blooms… although I’d be lying if I told you that I didn’t experience some anxiety about bearing a deep personal message or a foolish idea to a group or individual for the first time. It helps to understand that an idea, perhaps a crappy idea, when reviewed or shared can lead to a less crappy idea and, perhaps, to something you feel is near the right fit or owns some level of brilliance—I'm sure I read something like that in a Write Better Lyrics handbook.
We work, write and record together, and all dHb albums and singles have been self-produced by dHb and engineered and mixed by Scott Greene (a dHb member). But having outside help does give us inspiration. The late Mike Wells mastered all our recordings, and his input was invaluable. He will be missed for his many talents, and we are better for his gifts to us. Having another set of ears and eyes on your work and then evaluating their considerations can help breathe much needed fresh air into a project—and lend opportunities for depth.
Is there a particular piece of feedback you lean on when days are tough?
We don’t always know the impact of our work; however, with social media we’ve received such kind messages and moving stories from our friends through music. Recently after a show in Washington, we met a young person who shared that she’d been in a very low, very dark place emotionally for a while. She said that about a year prior to that very day, a music platform randomly added one of our songs to her playlist, and she liked what she’d heard! She told us she then found everything we’d released, and that the more she listened, the better she felt—that it made a difference that changed—and maybe helped save—her life. I’m paraphrasing it all, but this kind of message is one that hits me, and I have tears in my eyes now thinking about her and the other folks who have shared similar messages with us. It makes me feel tiny but very connected in a significant and beautiful way to have had some impact on a person’s experience of joy. It’s indescribable. It pushes us forward on days when I forget myself and start to tumble or spiral in my own issues. I keep that moment close to my heart.
What are you currently working on or hoping to explore next?
Currently we are writing to finish our third album, which will include the singles that have already been released. We have hopes for a concept album to follow.
What excites you most about the YEG art scene right now?
The awakening and reopening of venues with lots of music and dancing! The mix of established and new artists sharing stages of all sizes! Summer patios filled with song, festivals wafting music through the river valley, and the upcoming theatre season bursting with local acts and touring groups from all over the world, inspiring the next generation of performers within its audience! Sharing unifying experiences and making new memories together, in person, from backstage to the back row! The front of house, sound crews, and support staff all getting back to doing what they love best! The show that must go on! What could be better?
Want more YEG Arts Stories? We’ll be sharing them here all year and on social media using the hashtag #IamYegArts. Follow along!

The Spaniard & I
Part nine
Pairings: Pero Tovar x reader
Warnings: Smut 18+, fluff, angst, tricking husband during sex, angst.
Summary: you and Pero arrive at his Spanish home for your honeymoon.
A/N: I’m so sorry this took so long lost inspiration but I’m on a roll. Have three chapters written so should be updating more regularly.
{Comments and reblogs really appreciated}
Tumblr media
Arriving at Pero’s Spanish home, you are greeted by his house staff, who are overjoyed so see him. The welcome you as the new lady of the house with open arms and are very kind to you. Pero gives you a tour of the house before stripping you naked and having you writhing beneath him. Pero had arranged to have dinner outside that evening allowing you to enjoy the cool Spanish breeze.
“I am having tea with Maria tomorrow, I want to ask her a few things about running the house. She has done such a great job, I don’t think I could do better.”
“I am glad mi amor, Maria is very dear to me. She was like the mother I did no have.” When dinner was finished Pero took you again the dining room floor.
Tumblr media
Maria had provided a beautiful lunch and you were both currently sitting on the deck sipping iced tea.
“I am surprised Pero let you out of his bed chambers. I would have thought he would keep you there until his seed to root.”
“What do mean?”
“Dear girl, did your mama no tell you have women bear children?”
“Eh…yea but it was so long ago, I have forgotten.”
“A man must lay with his wife emptying his seed inside her. If no she will no bear children.” A rage burned inside you at this information. As you sat sipping your tea, an idea struck you, you were going to test out Maria theory tonight.
As night came you entered your bed chamber to find Pero already stripping. You move to quickly remove your dress before walking towards him, pushing him on the bed.
“Mi amor, what are you doing?”
“I want to be on top tonight.” A devilish smirk splays across his face. “Hop on mi amor, have your way with me.”
You crawl up the bed towards him and straddle his waist. His hands take purchase on your hips as you slowly sink down onto him. His head falls back into the pillow as he moans loudly.
“Mierda.”
“Are you ok?”
“Si, keep going, do no stop.”
You move slowly, dragging out Pero’s pleasure. You can tell he is close and to distract him you lean down and kiss him passionately. He comes deep inside you. You move off of him and quickly put on a robe wrapping it around yourself.
“Y/N, what did you do.”
“You lied to me.”
“What? I did no lie.”
“You told me you couldn’t have children. Not that you didn’t want them. There’s a difference. I love you Pero I want to have a family with you, why won’t you give me a baby?”
“I swore on the late dukes death bed I would not sire and heir, that the title would die with me.”
“That is ridiculous Pero. You would sacrifices family for a grudge on a dead man.”
“You do no understand..”
“Oh I understand perfectly.”
“Where are you going?”
“To sleep somewhere else.”
Tumblr media
The following days were filled with either awkward silences or harsh words. Sitting at dinner one evening a letter arrives from home. William is engaged to be married to Lin Mae. You stand and as Maria to help you pack. Pero stands abruptly from his seat, “where do you think you are going?”
“Oh so now you care? William is engaged to be married, I want to go home.”
“This is you home.”
“Is it. Anyway I’m going home to England to help him organise.”
“No without me your no.”
“So your coming too.”
“No.”
“Well I am.”
“What will William say when you arrive without your new husband?”
“I’m sure he will be livid, with you, for allowing your wife to travel alone.”
“You will let me know if your scheme worked and I am to be a father.”
You glare at him before storming off to your room. The following morning you set off without saying goodbye to Pero. Let him stew.

Did someone say Thirsty Thursday?! May I pretty please have some shower or bathtub sex with the TF boys?
Tumblr media
Of course you can! Thank you so much for the patience. :D 
18 + Only for shower sex with a female reader. 
You pushed the head of the vibrator against your clit, other hand braced on the wall keeping you upright as the water poured over your inflamed skin. You gasp as the pleasure builds low in your belly and you’re so distracted you miss the sound of the door opening and closing with a small click. You whimper when warm hands grasp your breasts pulling you back against a hard cock. 
You go to pull the vibrator away with a surprised gasp but his hand wraps around your wrist keeping it on you. “Please, don’t stop on my account.” The scuff on Frankie’s chin rubs your shoulder as his lips move over the skin on your neck, “are you close, pretty girl?” You nod leaning your head back onto his shoulder, his right hand gliding down and slowly inserting two fingers inside your dripping pussy. “Fuck, baby, you are so wet.” 
He pulls away and you whimper quickly letting out a deep moan as he turns you around and wraps his hands around your neck kissing you deeply. You take a step back and arch when your back hits the cold wall. “Wrap your leg around me baby, don’t you dare take that off your clit,” his order has you clenching around nothing as you follow his orders. 
Frankie helps lift your left leg to wrap around his waist as he lines his cock up with your aching core. “Fuck,” he mumbles as he slides into your tight heat, “you’re so fucking perfect.” He’s so fucking thick and he stretches you just right, filling you completely. He sets a quick pace, fucking you into the wall, the vibrator sending sensations up his cock as he pounds into you. 
“Frankie,” you let out a sob and he nudges his nose against yours slanting his lips against yours. The kiss swallows your moans as his tongue entangles between yours. “Frankie, fuck, I’m cumming,” you scream and soak his cock and he cums with you with a groan, his hips snapping with each thick rope of cum. You pull away the vibrator and turn it off putting it in the basket hanging on the wall. 
He gives you a languid kiss, his cock twitching inside you as he softens. “I love you,” he mumbles against your lips, “so fucking much. That was something wonderful to come home too.” You giggle and wrap your arms around his neck his arm lowering your leg back to the floor and slipping out of you. 
“Well then, welcome home soldier. I love you Frankie Morales.”
