And then Alaric was kissing her. He cupedher face, his fingers tangled in her wild hair, kissing Hanna as if he would devour her whole.
She started trembling, the shivers running across her whole body.
The man wanted her, even after he knew the truth?Alaric had threatened a nobleslifeto keep her and James safe?
When Alaric pulled back his expression was different. Dark almost, as if the animal inside him has finally made itself known.
He bared his teeth, his hands finding the tie at her gowns neckling and with a sharp twist he ripped the cord loose, tugging down the bodice and cotton stays so that her nipples were bared.
Hanna was panting, her body frozen even as heat flared in her belly, desire twisting like a snake low in her hips.
Alaric ran his thumbs slowly across the heaving mounds of her breasts, watching with satisfaction as her nipples tightened with arousal in the cool.
His hands went to her waist, and his mouth to her ear.
“Are you mine, Hanna?” he whispered low and deep, his words brushing against her skin. “I want all of you, your body, your heart, every thought in your head,I want it.”
She shuddered, that rush of heat gathering into a molten ball that ached between her thighs.
He pulled back, leaving her momentarily bereft.
“Are youmywoman?” Alaric snarled, more forcefull now, as he kicked her legs apart and stepped between them, reaching down to hike her skirts and petticoats up in bunches up around her waist.
Hanna nodded quickly, her breath hitching and catching with the last of her crying fit and sudden nerves.
Alaric cupped her bottom under her skirts and hiked her up to wrap her thighs around his hips, trapping her there against the tree.
“I want to hear you say it,” he growled, unbuttoning his breeches with a sharp tug so that he could free his hard cock to press against the wet heat of her core.
Hanna arched in his arms as he bucked against her, reaching down to guide the head of his shaft against her nub and spearing himself through her folds.
Hanna’s thighs trembled where they clasped his hips, her body begging for him to take her as she ground herself against him desperately in return.
Alaric’s teeth flashed with satisfaction, leaning forward to nib her throat as he hitched her higher in his arms, his cock teasing the entrance of her core.
“I want you to say it, Hanna. I want to hear you beg for me to fuck you here in my forest, I want your pleasure ringing out for anyone to hear.”
Shame flared in her cheeks but she was so needy, so wanton that she stammered the words. “I am yours… Please-”
“Louder,” Alaric ordered, nothing himself into her heat and pulsing there, stretching her as she clenched around the emptiness she needed filled.
“Please, Alaric,” she sobbed, her eyes pleading him now, “I am yours, please take me.”
Alaric reached up to hold Hanna in place by the base of her throat, watching her ferociously as he flexed his hips and impaled her in one deep, hard stroke.
She gasped in relief, begging him for more as she shuddered in bliss.
Alaric groaned low and hungry with each rough, demanding thrust, his gaze devouring her as her breasts bounced and her skin flushed, his hand tightening in ownership as Hanna started to moan helplessly.
Alaric took her lips for a moment then he shuddered in her arms, his thrusts suddenly fast and hard until he stroked deep and held himself there, pulsing inside her as Hanna felt the heat of his seed fill her.
He sagged against her for a breath, his teeth and lips on her shoulder as he shivered through the last of his climax.
“I want to see you full with my seed,” he whispered, shocking Hanna as he lowered himself to his knees and guided her thighs over his shoulders, spreading her cunny with his fingers so that the creamy mess of his pleasure spilled out and ran down her thighs.
“Every inch of you is mine,” he groaned, spreading his seed through her folds and pushing his fingers inside while she squirmed as her torture rose again.
“And I want you to come undone on my mouth, Hanna, I want to drink every drop of your pleasure, just as you took mine,” and then he buried his head between her thighs, licking her clean of his spend as he tasted her heat, dipping his tongue into her channel then up to her bud, leaving no part of her unloved as she gripped helplessly to his shoulders, his hair, her hips bucking against him as pleasure stole her senses, took over her body completely.
