“What are you doing?”
His eyes were warm. “Trust me. I promise you’ll like this.” He laid his body between her legs and spread her thighs wide.
Gisela felt heat explode over her cheeks as she realized he was staring at the center of her body.
He ran his finger down her cleft. She shivered. Then, he used his fingers to spread her open and dipped his head down.
Gisela jerked as his mouth covered her. Every nerve ending in her body sizzled as she cried out in surprise. He stroked her with his tongue and lips.
She hissed and moaned as she cupped his head to her. No longer able to speak, all she could do was feel each and every luscious lick he gave her.
Who could have imagined? His breath was hot against her bared flesh, and when he slid a finger deep inside her and rotated it, she thought she would die.
She looked down to see him staring up at her while he tormented her with ecstasy.
He pulled back but left his finger inside her. A strange sensation of intimacy that overwhelmed her.
“Don’t be embarrassed, my lady,” he whispered, then he returned to taunt her with his mouth.
With a mind of its own, her body writhed to his touch and kisses. And as he continued, she found herself unable to speak anymore. Unable to do anything other than feel him. Feel his tongue sliding around her, his finger swirling.
Her pleasure built to an unimaginable height. Until she was sure that she would explode with the weight of it.
Then, in the span of one heartbeat, she did explode. Her body splintered apart and she cried out.
Even so, Xaydin didn’t stop. He stayed there, licking and teasing until she’d come for him twice more.
When he seemed content to tease her more, she begged him for mercy. “Stop! Enough!” she whimpered. “If I do that one more time, I might die from it.”
He chuckled at her plea, then turned his face to suckle the tender flesh of her thigh.
Gisela lay there, completely spent and weak. She breathed raggedly as Xaydin gathered her into his arms and held her close.
“I had no ideathatexisted.”
He kissed her brow and cradled her head with his hands. “Neither did I,” he whispered softly.
Gisela smiled and snuggled against him, wanting to be as close as she could.
Her breathing ragged, she was so grateful for this night. It’d been the single best one of her life.
Tomorrow might divide them forever, but here for a moment she’d been really happy. She finally understood why some were willing to die for this intimacy.
So many things made sense now.
She would treasure this always.
Xaydin listened to Gisela’s breathing as she fell back asleep. He covered them with the blanket and ran his hands through her hair. He had nothing to offer her. All he knew was what he felt when he held her like this.
Possessive and protective.
It really didn’t make much sense. He’d been with plenty of women in his life. But none of them had ever touched him the way Gisela did.
Overwhelmed by the depth of what he felt for her, he traced her scars in the candlelight. It was obvious that Meara hadn’t spared her daughter her cruelty any more than she’d spared him and his friends.
The bitch is going to pay.
Whatever it took, he was going to help Dash remove that bitch from her throne. He didn’t care who sat upon it. But he wanted justice for what Gisela had been put through.
