modesty.”
He smiled to himself. A fire lived in his wife. He had not married a meek and submissive woman. Bold. Challenging. She would be a handful to handle, he was certain.
“I want you only not to be afraid of me.”
He swept her in his arms and claimed her mouth in a kiss. Desire burned through him. She responded, reaching for him and began unbuttoning his robe. He obliged her, helping her dispense with his clothing. Then his lips locked with hers; they fell upon the bed.
“I am not afraid.” Her words spoken in a whisper echoed within the stillness of the night’s air.
For a moment, his gaze burned into her. The translucent gown revealed all he fantasized about the last few days in the most erotic light. Her dark nipples, tight and hard. He reached down and caressed her long legs upward to her full hips, briefly teasing her mound. She moaned, sending spasms of want…lust through him.
Her breath caught when he kissed her breast through the material. The anticipation had her reeling in his arms. A need swelled within her for his man. Unexplainable …indescribable hunger. The whole of her body betrayed her mind.
She should have run long before she exchanged those tying vows. She should have never allowed herself to get caught in this trap. Had she not contrived to withdraw from far worse circumstances? But at this moment, her only fear was that he would leave her. She wanted him so badly, consequences be damned. This man she had only just met…had threatened her with exposure…had awakened dormant emotions. She pleaded, “Make love to me. Don’t leave me this night.”
He paused. For a moment, she thought he was going to say something. Instead, he pulled the ribbon that held her gown together and peeled it from her body, revealing her breasts. He latched his mouth on the tip of her nipple, sending a cascade of pleasurable sensations through her body. She abandoned herself in his essence, his kisses that lured her and claimed her with his own desire.
H is every touch excited her…thrilled her. She pressed her body to his, accepting him, aching for him. His every movement made her crazy with a yearning for more of the promise he held with his kiss. Swallowed up in her desire, she lived for the moment in a world of reawakening passion, where nothing outside of it seemed of any importance.
His head rose and gaze d at her. He was no longer smiling. Cupping her face in his hands, he crushed her mouth, ravaging her until a sound of pure ecstasy escaped her lips. She felt his breath and hard muscles. Lost in his touch, she sank into a mist of pleasure. His arms wrapped her tighter into an embrace.
She touched his arm and shoulder before her arms wound around his neck. Entwining her fingers into his hair, s he lost her reasoning. Yet not for one moment did she forget who held her, even as she reached for a remembrance. She melted into him.
He tortured her with caresses as he moved down her body , from her breasts to the core of her being. Her breathing was shallow and rapid as his fingers stroked that part of her that cried for him. Her skin quivered, with his every touch building a tide of unrelenting want.
His lips hovered over hers, savoring the warmth of her mouth. She sighed as his lips left hers. Her eyes gleamed in the candlelight as she gave him a long, lascivious look. He feathered her with kisses, wandering over her lips, cheeks, and buried himself in the nape of her neck. She smelled of lavender and he soaked in her aroma as his lips wandered between her breasts. He flicked his tongue over her nipple, teasing her so until she arched against him, begging for the sweet torture he now inflicted upon her.
He breathed in sharply when he felt her hands reach for his heated shaft. The whole of his being throbbed as her fingers caressed his man’s body. Igniting his hot blood, his need exploded within him, restraint lost in his pulsating desire. He mounted her then. Hot and wet, he plummeted into her
