Laura fisted the covers in her hands as Charon’s tongue touched her. She arched her back, the pleasure almost too intense to handle.
Then he found her clitoris, swirling his tongue around the tiny nub until she shook with the ecstasy filling her. He held her hips steady, refusing to allow her to move.
He licked, laved, stroked.
Her body was not her own. He commanded her, and she was helpless to do anything but follow, giving him everything and more.
The desire tightened until she thought she would burst from it. She was on the edge of an orgasm—so close it was within reach. Laura craved the release, but the more she moved toward it, the more Charon pushed her higher.
Charon opened his eyes to see Laura tossing her head side to side, her body tight as a bow. He knew he could give her the release she sought with one lick, but not yet.
He gave one final kiss to the inside of her thigh before he reached up and grasped her breasts. He squeezed her nipples, wringing a cry from her.
His attention focused on her lovely breasts gave her a slight reprieve. He lifted himself up and over her, his gaze on her sex spread beneath him, open and inviting. Her hips moved, seeking him.
His cock jumped in response, and suddenly Charon couldn’t hold back anymore. He guided his aching arousal to her core, and then thrust.
Charon buried himself to the hilt in one smooth push. She was tighter than he imagined, and so incredibly hot. He held still, holding back the tide of his own climax, but Laura had other ideas.
She began to move beneath him, her hands at his waist urging him to join her. He met her gaze and couldn’t deny her. With a hand braced beside her head, he shifted his hips.
Laura couldn’t look away from Charon’s dark gaze. He opened himself to her, allowed her to see into his soul for a heartbeat, but in that moment she knew he was a man she couldn’t walk away from.
Ever.
Her legs wrapped around his waist, her ankles locked at his buttocks as his tempo increased. Her already primed body began to tremble with this new pleasure.
With her breaths coming in great gasps, she met him thrust for thrust. Body to body, heart to heart they gave in to their desires.
The longing within her was filled, her need met by a man who was much more than he admitted. The world ceased to exist. There was only the two of them, locked in a dance as old as time.
Each time Charon plunged within her, he went deeper, harder, faster. Her skin was drawn tightly over her bones as the pleasure coalesced into a fiery ball within her.
The orgasm hit her like a tidal wave. She was swept away and over into an abyss of pleasure so intense, so amazing she lost herself in it.
Just when she thought it might end, Charon continued to move and prolong her bliss until she screamed his name, the second climax taking her before the first was finished.
Laura held on to him, refusing to let go for fear that she might not come back to herself. The muscles beneath her hands moved and bunched as he continued to thrust.
He pumped mercilessly within her, until he plunged deep and gave a shout as he climaxed.
She didn’t know how long they lay there before she felt him pull out of her, and then tuck her against his body. She didn’t want to think of what was coming, but reality was quickly crashing down around them. Whatever time they had, she would take it and cherish it always.
A smile formed when Charon’s arms tightened around her. It made her feel special, something she hadn’t ever experienced before. But then again, just being with Charon had always made her feel like she truly belonged.
She knew he was awake by the way his fingers played along her skin, as if he couldn’t stop touching her. Laura squeezed his arms and saw the room begin to lighten from the coming dawn.
“There’s more to the story, isn’t there,” she whispered. She didn’t want to bring it up, but she had to know.
Charon’s fingers paused before he said, “Aye.”
“It’s a part you don’t want to tell me, why?”
“Because of what you’ll think of me.”
His honesty brought tears to her eyes. “I know what I think of you already. That won’t change.”
“I doona wish to test your theory.”
She sighed when he kissed her neck. “Our time is at an end, isn’t it?”
“Unfortunately.”
“It wasn’t long enough.”
“I fear an eternity wouldna be long enough for me to explore your body.”
Laura sat up and faced him. His words gave her the courage she needed to tackle what was coming. “I’ll go to the MacLeods, but I expect to see you there. Promise me you’ll be there, and I’ll go.”
The wicked grin he gave her sent chills along her body. “I’ll be there once I’m finished with Jason Wallace.”
