Bowen had probably had it hardest of any of them He&039;d believed his mate was dead, had mourned her loss for well over a century Then, just this year, he&039;d un to fall hopelessly for her, he&039;d hated hi hi a spell over his weren&039;t always as they seemed with Mariketa

Emma asked, "Do you think it ork out for Aunt Luce and Garreth?"

"I do know this - h head over heels for your aunt"

He could feel her grinning against his chest "If he&039;s anything like you, thento be head over heels for your brother"

"Let&039;s hope Garreth has long needed a good woer under her chin, lifting her face - "did you happen to wake thirsty?"

Chapter 26

Though exhaustion weighed on Lucia, she had no hope for sleep

A storht, the bow collided with log after log, keeping her on edge Now she understood why the fore cabin wasn&039;t preferred

Long after MacRieve had left, she stared at the door, i ould have happened if she&039;d ht with a virilebetween thehted future

If the Scot was disgusted by her vow of chastity, hoould he react when he knew she&039;d bedded the devil?

She was lying in the dark, peering at the cabin&039;s new fist-sized porthole, when MacRieve returned, soaked through Without a word, he grabbed a shaving kit out of his bag, then headed for the shower

Shaving? And he took my boith him?

When he exited tenbut a towel and his cuff His face was smooth, now clean shaven He set her bow case by the cabin door, then shook out his hair - wolflike

Dear gods, the man was fine His daolden hair on the center She wanted to rub her face against it

At the an to fade, her traitorous body readying against her will She dug her curling claws into her palhs

"My path is clear to me," he said, his expression inscrutable

"You&039;ll leave?"

"Nay, beauty Was thinking" He sat at the edge of the bed "You weren&039;t coure we can do whatever we did then"

"Whatever we did?"

"You can still be chaste, just no&039; have intercourse That&039;s why you stopped me in the swamp - if I had no&039; tried to take you, I&039;ll bet you would&039;ve let me continue to my own end"

Her lips parted "No, you can&039;t know that"

"You said you will no&039; take a male into your body Does no&039; mean I canna suckle and stroke you Does no&039; mean you canna do the same to me"

"We&039;ll lose control" He could seduce her - she would surrender to that wild recklessness inside her "You&039;ll try to get me to do more"

"Will no&039; I&039;ll wait until you tell me you&039;re ready You&039;ll have to tell et caught up and say soret"

"Then you&039;d have to say it e are no&039; in bed"

He was getting that look in his eyes Her heart began racing, drowning out any lingering fatigue Before her mind shut down, she needed to extract a vow from him "No matter what happened No matter what I said Or did?"

"I&039;d never do anything you dinna want Why I got this cuff from the bluidy witches"

"I mean it! You would vow to the Lore?"

"Aye, I vow it," he said "Are we agreed?"

"I don&039;t" She trailed off, staring up at his aze What woman could turn away a ave a shaky nod

He wasted no ti for her clothes "Let&039;s take this off you" He pulled her halter top over her head, seeht of her dark red bra She hadn&039;t chosen red because she&039;d known he&039;d see it tonight - truthfully, alerie was now scarlet and cri them For him

He pressed her back on the bed, then reaze, but everywhere else on his body was titillating too She wanted to sigh at those thick olden hair

As he eased his towering, naked frarazing kisses When he bared her breasts, his lips were only inches away fro before his eyes

He flashed her a wolfy, dangerous look, knowing his effect on her "They want to be sucked" He leaned down and wrapped his lips around one, flicking his tongue all over it She helplessly arched up, gasping with pleasure as it pebbled in his ain and again

Once he moved to her other nipple, he left the first one achy and da her but hadn&039;t acknowledged she was naked in a bed with hiaze over her, his voice a deep ruid penis pulsed, and a shining drop beaded the broad crown

He began ski his hand down her belly, but once he reached her sex, she stiffened She couldn&039;t help it, even after his suckling had made her body boneless with need

"Let me pet you Or take my hand and show me how you want me to touch you"

"Just just do it like you did that night in the cell"

"Was so long ago, I canna quite reaze catching hers, he sucked her forefinger between his lips, wetting it Then he placed it against her throbbing clitoris, er you prefer, if memory serves"

She was too aroused to be e herself there

His lids went heavy, and he growled low in his throat "That&039;s it, lass" Heto his riveted gaze, spreading moisture all around, she undulated her hips to her hand, her other ar her inner thighs, spreading her legs wider and wider, while her eyes fluttered shut

Yet soon she felt his fingers stroking her folds, probing her opening "MacRieve!"

"Keep goin&039;" His chest was heaving "I&039; more Just my - "

"No!" She slammed her knees shut

He forced theue" With his callused pals open, he leaned down and set his mouth directly upon her sex

She sucked in a shocked breath Lightning lit the roo her up and down "I&039;ve waited ainst her, his accent so thick "Will never get enough of you" Shuddering with pleasure, he began flicking, teasing, nipping

She moaned - loudly Rain and wind pounded the balcony doors open A fine ed with bliss, he asked, "You&039;ve never had this?"

"No!"

"You&039;ll be wantin&039; it again?"

Another thorough lick had her back arching "Ah, yes!"

"Good lass" He wrapped those brawny arhs "Your tastethis tae you" He circled his tongue over her clitoris "Have you i you here?"

"Yes," she moaned She had, but had never dreamed it would be this wicked

His pace was slow, savoring, but his body was taut, tension in every line of his cordedhi upon her in a frenzy His knee was drawn up, and his narrow hips were grinding against the bed She wanted her hands on his rock-hard ass, wanted to feel hirew closer to her cliainst her His eyes had flickered blue, and she&039;d seen a gliht that he couldn&039;t quite control his reaction didn&039;t frighten her - it aroused her even an, pleasure as she&039;d never iined

Just before he took her clitoris between his lips, he growled, "Come hard for your hs fell wide open as she wantonly bucked to hisflashed like bo to screaainst

She did Over and over

He didn&039;t stop licking her orgasm the first or even the second tirinding his aching cock into the bed

Finally, he tore hi up on his knees Already he was on the verge of co - even before he saw her spread out before hihs were still parted, revealing her drenched sex Her soft folds glistened Her breasts were rising and falling with her hectic breaths

Her eyes silvery and filled with lust as she stared at his swollen cock

"Touch it"

She rose up, reaching for hi his shaft

"Cupbollocks, hefting them, he choked out, "Now do both" As she fondled his sac and stroked, he went nigh dizzy with pleasure Soed to utter the words, "Put your lips on it"

She leaned in, looking like she was considering it but then hesitated

"Have you ever done this?"

She whispered, "No, never"

"Do you want tae?" When she gave a tentative nod, he said, "I&039;ll show you" She&039;s going to suckle it? A dream? Another fantasy to join the thousands over the last year?

Holding the back of her head with one shaking hand and his cock with the other, he guided her closer "Tastehe&039;d spontaneously lose his seed

He inhaled a ragged breath as her tongue darted out She licked the slit; his eyes rolled back in his head, and he bucked uncontrollably to her tongue When she drew back, he said, "Nay, Lousha, I&039;ll hold still Just takehis shaft to her once more, he rasped, "Suck it between your lips"

With his gaze holding hers, he pressed his cockhead into her hot, wet reeted hi up at hi -

No, no canna hold roan, he tucked his hips under, sory heat "&039;Bout tae come" He pressed her back on the bed, then took his cock in his fist "Do you want me tae come atop you?" If I canna asped at his words, then nodded eagerly, arching her back

After a single pu his semen over her As he ejaculated, her body quivered with each drop of his hot seed Again and again, he lashed her torso and breasts, her nipples

Once he&039;d finally finished spending, he wiped her off with his T-shirt, then drew her tight into his ar

Between kisses on her neck, her ears, her face, he said, "I&039;ll do this to you till there&039;s so to take the place of your vows - until you see the two of us together as your religion Markforstruck directly outside, a boom that shook the entire boat But Garreth was already awake

It was just after four in the- the tiet a jump on her If he&039;d even bothered to sleep

Earlier, he&039;d petted her hair until she&039;d passed out, then he&039;d dozed fitfully himself - until he&039;d awakened with his shaft hard as wood

After debating whether to wake her with his tongue back between her thighs, he decided not to push her too quickly So he sat in the cabin&039;s chair, ignoring the ache in his shaft, and gazed at her, his favorite sight

He&039;d never seen her like this before - still In sleep, she panted her breaths, her brows drawn

Another bolt In the beginning, he&039;d thought all the lightning coht wrong He craved seeing it, knew it meant she was near, and it alerted hi had struck every time just before she&039;d attacked hiret

Now things were looking up for them The unbelievable pleasure they&039;d just shared was only the beginning He&039;d seduce her to surrender more

Wait, had she moaned? Maybe she had the same subject on her ain, and louder No, it was aworse More lightning blasted down, then came a whimper

"Lousha, rest easy" He cli her across his chest to run his fingers through her hair again Though she never woke, she calmed

Yet not before he felt tears on his chest "Ach, love, what&039;s this?" he murmured, but she slumbered on

He needed to uncover what had befallen his mysterious little mate Lykae reveled inhe could about her But with care For Lucia, he would be patient, would teression

Ah, lass, your secrets&039; days are nuedly handso his eyes, "as you found ging the sheet with her Luckily he hadn&039;t seen her hand poised just above his cheek She&039;d been an inch away froainst his stubble

He finally cracked open his eyes "But look all you like Happy to show you the whole package again"

"Funny, Scot" When she&039;d awakened to a cloudless dawn, her first thought had been that she needed to run - MacRieve would be closing in on her! Then she&039;d reht before

She&039;d already been caught Yet her worst fears hadn&039;t been realized - because he&039;d vowed not to take her Relaxing a shade, she&039;d quietly turned to watch hinificent male she shared a bed with
