Clark isn't as patient this time around. It's almost like he knows what he's doing now, not to mention there's a bit of a boost in his ego about all this. Eirene can thank her "amazing" comment for that.

So it's not too much longer before his hands return to her hips, tilting them just so, and then he's pressing into her again, a soft sigh of contentment huffing against the skin of her throat.
