he released her hands, grabbing hold of her hips as he pumped into her.
“Riley,” she cried out. “What—” she shook her head, unable to finish her thoughts as heat consumed them both—the same heat that they’d felt when touching the book earlier. It consumed them. Bound them together in a way she’d never experienced before. As if it were more than just his cock buried inside her. But that he was actually a part of her.
She collapsed onto his chest, unsure if she could survive the intensity of the emotions rioting through her. She felt what he was feeling—the deep love he had for her, the lust that consumed him when he touched her, and the confusion at what was happening to their bodies now. But neither of them could stop.
Their mouths found each other as the hunger raged inside them, their tongues melding and stroking. Perspiration soaked their skin and hips clashed. Desperation took hold as their flesh became one, and the white hot lightning of release crackled across her sensitive skin—from the tight bundle of nerves at her clit to the edge of her cervix where the head of his cock kissed with every deep thrust.
“I’m going to come,” she said. And then she rose up and planted her hands on his chest, riding them both to the finish. Her head tossed back and his fingers bit into her hips as pleasure consumed them. And when the storm broke free inside of her, wave after wave of pleasure destroyed what was left of her control.
The heat went hotter and higher than she thought possible, until she was surprised they didn’t combust into flames, and then his seed erupted inside of her and she cried out against at the intensity. She’d never felt him like that. But she was so sensitive to everything happening with their bodies all she could do was marvel at the wonder. As his seed planted itself firmly in her body. She couldn’t explain it. But she knew without a shadow of a doubt that they’d just conceived the child they’d both longed for.
Tears fell from her cheeks to his chest and when she looked down into his eyes, she saw the dampness there as well. He’d felt it too.
Maggie collapsed on top of him, exhausted, and he wrapped his arms around her as they both fell into a sound sleep.
CHAPTER SIX
Riley heard the rumble of an engine in the distance just before dawn, and he shook Maggie awake and motioned for her to get dressed as quickly as possible. He’d had a feeling sometime during the night that he needed to be on alert and ready for whatever was coming. And despite the fact that he knew he couldn’t really trust anyone but Maggie, he’d woken Sam out of a sound sleep and filled him in. Because he’d had to trust someone.
He’d returned the Book of Souls to the room they’d taken it from during the night. The power was undeniable. But it wasn’t a magic he wanted to mess with. It said danger would come to any who possessed the book, and after what had happened during their lovemaking the night before, he believed the legend.
They didn’t need danger in their lives. They had a child to think of now. He knew there was a child with a conviction he couldn’t explain. And he’d do whatever he could to protect it and Maggie.
Dawn was just breaking over the horizon when the Jeep came to a stop and Dr. Bekhit got out of the driver’s seat. Riley was surprised to see he was alone, and doubt went through his mind that maybe he was overreacting. But then he remembered the blood on the edge of the platform.
“Dr. MacKenzie,” Bekhit said as he got out of the Jeep. “Sorry to disturb you so early, but I thought you might need my help since you are men short.”
“How’s Walker?” Riley asked.
He saw Sam out of the corner of his eye move to start a fire so they could get coffee going. It was just business as usual as far as anyone was concerned. Bekhit didn’t noticed the gun Sam hid in his lap as he stoked the fire.
“He is much better today,” Bekhit said,
