An Officer and A Gentleman Contest,
Semper Fidelis, o/s

I love this story!

Let's start with the obvious. The sex in this story is MOLTEN. Surface of the sun HOT! I think it is so, because it is the love between seasoned lovers. Once you are with someone for so long, you know just where to touch them. Just what to do to make them come (or cum) undone. There was also that wonderful element of teasing and demanding that you are only comfortable testing the boundaries of with someone you trust.

Then just their story itself unfolding on either side of the physical reunion. Her obvious pride and commitment to him and their relationship. I love that you noted that they don't always agree fundamentally, but when both parties have an absolute idea of self, you can respect their steadfastness. Bella doesn't doubt Edward nor he her, because they are so unwavering in their character.

Wonderful, wonderful job.

Good luck in the contest!
