She wrapped her arms around his neck as he ran his hands up against her.This felt different.This was a closeness she hadn’t anticipated.
She didn’t want him to stop, and he continued to kiss her, and there was an answering pulse in her core as she felt his cock thicken within her.Astrid didn’t know how it was possible for him to get any thicker as he filled her.
He felt amazing to her, and she didn’t want him to stop.Their connection was absolute.Was she imagining this?It felt so real.She loved this man, she felt it deep in her soul, and it consumed her in a way she wasn’t ready for.This was magical.This was everything.
They made love.This was not fucking, but making love, and Astrid loved every second of it.It was the strangest feeling, and she was pretty sure she felt how Lord was feeling.That had to be wrong.There was no way she knew what Lord was feeling, because he could be feeling anything.But it was there, this flow of emotion so intense, it stole her breath away.She hoped she wasn’t imagining it.

“You’re not coming outwith me,” Lord said.
“You’re not going to stop me, and it’s late, and it’s dark, and you want to go and check on the cattle and the horses.Don’t argue with me, Lord.I know the ranchers would usually be here to help, and they’re not here, so you’ve got me.”
He didn’t like this.He needed to go and check on a few parts of the ranch.Astrid had dressed for the occasion which had pissed him off, because he liked her naked.For the past couple of days, they hadn’t even bothered to wear clothes.
He’d been able to sneak out to check on the ranch in the morning as she’d been busy with breakfast.This morning, she had already gotten breakfast prepared and was waiting to go with him, and he was a little pissed about it.It was cold outside, and Astrid did not run hot, like him.He wanted to protect her, but she was so damn stubborn.
“Fine, fine, you can come with me, but if you get too cold, then you’re back here, you got it?”
She stuck out her tongue, which was so cute, and she winked at him.He didn’t like this, but there was nothing else he could do unless he chained her to the bed, which did sound appealing to him.
“Come on,” he said.
He reached for her hand, and she took his without hesitation.
Mine.
There was that word.He couldn’t get it out of his head.Astrid belonged to him.She was his mate, and he had to fix what he had broken.They stepped out into the cold, and the moment they did, he felt her tense up.
“You can go right back into the house,” he said.
“No, it’s fine.It’s not cold.”
He was already sure her teeth were chattering.Lord didn’t like this.It was rare for him to feel the cold, and he knew this was cold.He pulled her close, wrapping an arm around her shoulders, trying to give her as much of his warmth as physically possible.
The horses and cattle were not too far from the main house.He was not interested in what he had to fix.With the intense cold and the volume of snow, he knew there was going to be something he would need to fix.The damage would be extensive, but he was only interested in close to the house where he had everything protected.
The teeth chattering started quite quickly.Quicker than he liked.He pulled her in close, but he just didn’t have enough body heat to help her.
“I’m fine,” Astrid said.
She was a stubborn woman.
It took over an hour, but he got to check on the horses, who were more than happy, as he had warmed the stables where they were kept.Same with the cows, which he had brought close, and provided warmth for them as well.
The food was fine.There was no sickness.He did a quick head count and was more than happy, but he had a horrible feeling Astrid was not going to be as well.Didn’t humans when faced with the cold, get sick?
By the time he was finished, he was done playing games with her, so he picked her up and placed her over his shoulder, gave her ass a nice little smack, then carried her right back to the main ranch.
“I can walk, you know.”
“I know, but why would I let you walk, when carrying you is a lot more fun?”For good measure, he gave her ass another little slap, and she let out a yelp.
“Lord!”
He gave her ass yet another slap, because she had a nice, ripe, juicy ass, and it would seem he just couldn’t resist.
The moment they stepped through the door, Lord didn’t give her the chance to be angry, as he pressed her up against the closed door, taking hold of her hands, and pressing them up above her head.She was cold, and he needed to get her in front of the fire.
