Page 71 of A Courtesan Countess Worth the Scandal

Together, they cried out as his member slid inside her, parting the petals of her sex in a way she had never experienced. Overwhelmed by the euphoric sensation, she clung onto him, breathing hard as he pushed himself the rest of the way into her slick sheath, all the way to the hilt. There, he stilled for a moment, as if allowing her some time to grow accustomed to the new feeling.

Slowly, he withdrew his length to the tip, his shining gaze holding hers as he sank into her once more. Her hips rose to meet his slow, sensual thrust, as a groan of absolute pleasure slipped from her lips. Why had nobody ever told her that such bliss existed in the mortal realm? It rather felt as though the world had been keeping a secret from her, and now she was finally being allowed to hear of it.

Limbs entwined, and mouths connected in feverish abandon, they moved together on the soft mattress of their marital bed, oblivious to the volume of their impassioned cries of ecstasy. No one outside this room existed anymore. It was only the two of them, in their own garden of Eden, delighting in one another.

And yet, he was considerate of her past. He did not plunder her without thought. Instead, he thrust inside with her with measured, slow strokes that allowed her to feel every inch of him, until she began to feel a swell of something powerful, rising up in the muscles of her abdomen. The mounting wave of pleasure only increased as he slid his hand down her stomach and found her secret bud. There, his fingertips moved in small circles, igniting a veritable inferno within her.

“Liam!” she cried out, her body trembling violently as the wave of pure euphoria crashed through her, sweeping through her veins and turning her limbs to aspic. And deep within her sex, she felt her muscles constrict around Liam’s length, as he pushed himself inside her again and again, making her tingle all over as that raw explosion of pleasure subsided into a bristling spark.

She had heard of such experiences from courtesans who indulged in men’s carnal desires, but she had always thought they were trying to trick her, to make her more forthcoming. Now, she knew it had not been a lie. Sex, she realized, was not merely for a man’s pleasure. There were ecstasies to be discovered for women, too.

Spurred on by her own delicious conclusion, her hands found Liam’s taut buttocks once more, and she urged her hips to move faster. Apparently sensing her intention, Liam plunged into her depths with increasing speed, though there was no pain, only a continued flow of intoxicating sensation.

His breaths quickened in time with his thrusts and, a minute later, his own groan of ecstasy filled the bedchamber. “Nora… oh, Nora!” He pushed his hips forward until he could not go any further, and his body stilled as she felt his member pulsate inside her, encouraging latent shivers of bliss to prickle through her stomach.

She held onto him as he collapsed against her, his arms wrapping around her as he buried his face in her neck, both of them panting and grinning with contentment. Indeed, she rather liked the weight of him upon her, while she still had the sensation of his length inside her. Here, like this, they felt like one entity.

“You are my destiny, Nora,” he whispered against her skin. “And I am so happy that I have found you.”

She smiled and held him tighter, relishing in the warmth of their bodies pressed together. “This is love,” she murmured back. “This is what I’ve been missing, all these years. And there’s no one in this world who could’ve shown that to me, but you.”

He kissed her neck and, as they lay there together, basking in their contentment, Nora knew that two broken hearts could, indeed, make one whole.

The End?
