Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you

[dharmalady]

Juliet Scott was married for five years. Three of them were good. She was young, Damien was too. They were in love and carefree; had fun and had a lot of sex, traveled to a lot of places. She'd been on track to start med school but when she met Damien, she wanted him instead, and she thought she'd always choose him over everything.

Until she got pregnant.

He stuck around for a few months but then, conveniently his job took him away and the stretches of time between being home and being gone were longer. He was never a bad dad to Mia, not once, but it was like a chore to be home, to be a husband and civilian again. Juliet missed him but she tried to talk to him about it and it was a fight, every time. He had a job, he had missions, he couldn't just give that up. So she decided a year and a half ago to not make him choose anymore. She sent him divorce papers, certified mail, with a letter explaining to him that she was tired of feeling like she and Mia weren't a priority. Like he didn't want to be there when he was back in the states. She wasn't surprised when she got the signed paperwork back with no note in response.

She and Mia have been solo ever since, the two of them moving to Miami to be closer to Juliet's sister. Med school finally happens, and now Juliet's an intern and Mia is five. It's been hard, harder than Juliet ever thought she'd have to do on her own, but she's doing it. She's never told Damien he can't be a part of Mia's life, she's never tried to keep him away from her. When she moves, she makes sure someone in his branch of the military, wherever he is, gets her address. She's not even angry at him anymore, just sad that it ended this way between them.

Every sound he makes spurs Juliet on, and she keeps going, more eager now as she solely uses her mouth so that her good hand can move to cup his balls, lightly squeezing as her mouth moves. She loves the feel of every single inch of him, and all she wants now is to taste him completely.

[inthewar]

"Fuck...fuck me, baby..." He makes plenty of sounds so she knows exactly what she's doing to him, how incredible she's making him feel, and he pants a little as the pleasure builds. It's when she touches his ball that he goes utterly insane, climaxing with a loud gasp of her name.

[dharmalady]

Juliet moans around him, pulling back just enough to swallow before using her tongue to lick him clean slowly and lazily before moving up his body and kissing his neck tenderly.

[inthewar]

His arms just wrap around her and he holds onto her, nuzzling against her cheek as he works to catch his breath. "I love you..."

[dharmalady]

"I love you, Damien Scott," she breathes out. "And I can't wait to marry you again. To be your wife."

[inthewar]

"When are we doing this? Tomorrow?" He grins at her, just so eager to marry her, to be hers again. Forever, now.

[dharmalady]

"Yeah? Go down to City Hall?" she asks with a laugh, raking her fingers through his hair. "Let's do it. Tomorrow afternoon."

[inthewar]

"Yeah, baby. I'm fucking serious," he grins, glad she is, too. He leans in to kiss her deeply, nuzzling against her forehead.

[dharmalady]

"Then we're doing it," she laughs, ready, more than ready as she snuggles against his side. "Get some sleep, because tomorrow I'm making an honest man out of you. Again."

[inthewar]

He knows he's the one who fucked it up last time, but that won't happen again, and he's just so damn happy and in love. "God, I fucking love you."

[dharmalady]

"I love you. I love what we have, right now. Mia and this baby on the way and...everything, Damien. Everything the way it should be," she murmurs, kissing him again softly before laying her head on his chest.

[inthewar]

"Fucking perfect," he breathes out, nuzzling up against her temple, kissing her skin, and falling asleep just like that with her in his arms.

[dharmalady]

The next day, with Mia in tow, they do indeed go fill out the paperwork and get married again, making everything official. It's perfect, and there's a sort of permanent smile etched on Juliet's face. They go out to a late lunch and Juliet lets Damien take care of everything. She knows a point of pride was not being able to pick up the tab, or say he was contributing much, and Juliet's happy now to let him take over as much as he wants.

"I was thinking, maybe we should think about a bigger place. It's not really fair to make a six-year-old share a room with a baby."

[inthewar]

"I'm gonna buy you a house, Jules," he nods at her. "You pick a place. Maybe with a pool, for the kids."

[dharmalady]

"....Really? Any place?" she asks, just wanting to be sure. "What's my budget?"

[inthewar]

"There's no budget," he tells her without hesitation. "Whatever you want. I'll pay cash."

[dharmalady]

Juliet's quiet for a second, just thinking before clearing her throat. "Damien, exactly...how much money is there?" she asks quietly just so no one overhears.

[inthewar]

He's equally quiet as he answers, leaning in close to her. "Almost a billion dollars, Jules."

[dharmalady]

She honestly feels like she can't breathe for a second but in a good way. She lets out a bubble of a laugh, takes a sip of water, then laughs again, covering her mouth. "Holy shit." Then she corrects herself when Mia shoots her a look. "Sorry, baby. Bad word."

[inthewar]

Damien smirks softly, just reaching out to cover her hand. "Told you. Just pick a house, baby."

[dharmalady]

She nods at him, still speechless, but now she's definitely planning on picking out the house of her fucking dreams.

As it turns out, she's not fussy at all, and while the house she picks is a million dollar home, it's not at all over the top. Five bedrooms, five full bathrooms, a good kitchen, and a beautiful backyard with a pool. The only thing she asks Damien to do is put a fence around the pool just to be safe. But she's happy. She's so fucking happy and by the time she's seven months pregnant, they're moving in, able to start getting things ready for their new baby girl. She still has her old, trusty SUV that's gotten she and Mia reliably around for the past six years and before that, was Juliet's car back when she met Damien. It's nothing to look at, but it gets all of their clothes to the new house.

[inthewar]

It's not that the car she has is in terrible shape, but he wants to spoil the fuck out of her now that he really can, and she deserves the best, not just something functional. So he goes to buy her a brand new Nissan Murano, the top of the line SUV with the best safety rating, and when she gets home from work that day, it's sitting in the driveway with a bow on the hood of the car.

[dharmalady]

When Juliet sees it, her hands cover her mouth and slowly she gets out of her car, just walking around the new SUV slowly. When she goes inside and finds Damien, she just stares at him with a lopsided grin on her face.

"Did you buy me a car?"

[inthewar]

Damien's grinning, standing in the kitchen with Mia as they both make a snack for the afternoon.

"Yeah, baby. It's all yours."

[dharmalady]

Walking to him, she wraps her arms around him and hugs him as tightly as she can before kissing him softly. "God, you have no idea how amazing you are. Thank you, Damien. Thank you for this."
