I'm in no hurry to let her go. It probably shouldn't amuse me, but the fact that she thinks those little legs could’ve gotten her out of there faster than I did has me grinning.

Her eyes narrow furiously at me as I slide her down my body. Gripping her lush ass, I keep her pressed against my chest as I walk toward a large boulder and prop her against it. Her feet dangle, and she places her hands on my chest as she tries to wiggle free.

Toto huffs when she realizes I have no intention of putting her down, blowing some of her dark hair out of her eyes. "All you had to do was tell me the plan."

I can't help but tease her. "You think you could keep up with me? Not with these short legs, gorgeous."

I grip her thigh firmly and run my hand lightly along her soft skin.

Toto's breath catches, and her gaze lifts to mine. The skirt she’s wearing is completely impractical for hiking, but one of the Boncharme guards packed up all of Dottie's clothes, leaving Toto with nothing else to change into.

I certainly don't mind. It gives me easy access.

Toto's mouth drops open, and my mind supplies an immediate image of my cock sliding between those perfect lips. My hard length presses painfully against my zipper, every bit of adrenaline pumping through me turning into something hotter.

Toto narrows her eyes, nostrils flaring with indignation at my teasing.

Then she bursts out laughing.

Fuck, I love that sound. It might be my favorite sound in the world.

When her giggles finally fade, Toto braces her hands on my shoulders and looks down at me, her round breasts level with my face. I reluctantly slide her down the full length of my body, taking my time and letting her feel exactly what she does to me.

She's breathing hard by the time her feet hit the ground, but I still don't release her.

"You okay?" I ask softly, cupping her chin.

She nods, but her eyes are wide. "They could have killed us."

"Nothing will happen to you, Toto." I gently graze her cheek with my thumb. "Not on our watch.”

I hold her gaze as I lean in closer and lower my mouth to hers, hoping she doesn't stop me.

But I don't have to worry. Toto licks her lips, closes the last inch between us, and presses her mouth to mine.

Fireworks explode in my brain, threatening to take this entire forest with me.

Mine.

Chapter six

Toto

Granger moans and takes over, sliding his tongue into my more-than-willing mouth as his large hands pull me flush against him.

Holy shit. I'm kissing Granger.

I open my eyes as he presses me against the boulder behind us, needing tangible proof that this is actually happening. A rush of desire coats my panties as his tongue slides against mine, and a needy little whimper escapes me.

His answering groan vibrates against my lips.

One hand slides into my hair, angling my head back as he deepens the kiss. For one ridiculous second, I wonder if I took a piece of acorn shrapnel to the head.

Have I died?

Is this heaven?

Then Granger squeezes my ass possessively, and I no longer give a shit. Death can take me if this is what I get to do for eternity.
