Maddie stared at the icing all over his fingers. She moaned in anticipation and started licking. She giggled at all the icing he had on his fingers.
Alex selected another pastry filled with strawberry jelly. He pulled her cloth down and squeezed the strawberry jelly over her nipples. She gasped as the cold fruit dripped over her tender tips.
“Do you know how much I love strawberry?” He lowered his head to her breast and proceeded to show her how much he loved strawberry jelly. Maddie grabbed his hair and tugged him closer. He left her nipple and took her mouth in a passionate kiss. He angled his mouth over hers and she gave a small moan in the back of her throat. Running his tongue over the inside of her mouth, he let her know how much he desired her. He pulled away and suckled her nipple again.
A knock sounded at the door. “Just a moment,” Maddie croaked in her pleasure. Her voice trembled and her face flushed. She ran her hand across her mouth to get rid of the icing. Pulling up the cloth, she stared at her husband as he bade Fiona to enter with the tub. Maddie blushed and turned her head away. Her behavior was wanton, he made her forget everything but the sheer pleasure humming through her body.
After the servants filled the tub with hot, steaming water and the door closed, Alex cradled her face. “Maddie, do not be ashamed of your passion. Passion for your husband is a wonderful thing. Come, I will wash you now.”
Alex urged her to step into the warm water. Confusion washed over her, but she decided to trust him, reaching for his hand. Stepping in cautiously, she attempted to sit, but he wouldn’t allow her.
“Nay, love, I shall wash you first.” He winked at her as reached into the water.
Grabbing a linen square, he found a slice of her lavender scented soap. First, he held the square up and trickled water down her body. Starting at her neck, he squeezed it over her front and her back, paying special attention to the round globes of her bottom. Maddie heard a moan and blushed when she realized the sound came from her.
“Oh my!” was all she could manage.
He rubbed the linen with the soap and slowly massaged her breasts, rubbing the lather over the hard peaks of her nipples. Opening her eyes, she watched as he trailed his hand down her belly, across her curls. Maddie placed her hand on his shoulder to steady herself. He picked up each long leg, one at a time, and washed from the ankle up, using his bare hand to caress the tender area behind each knee. When he washed her woman’s place, Maddie closed her eyes and moaned lightly.
“Alex, this cannot be proper.”
He chuckled, “There is nothing wrong with a husband assisting his wife to bathe.”
What was happening to her? He eased her legs apart and slipped a finger inside her.
“Ah, Maddie, you will be a passionate one. I see you are enjoying your bath as much as I am.” His eyes twinkled as he dropped the linen square in the water and his plaid on the floor.
Maddie gasped as she noticed his arousal. “Oh my!” She slowly slid her eyes back to his face. What would it feel like to touch him there?
“Aye, precious, see what you do to me?” Alex stepped into the tub and sat down, helping her onto his lap. He carefully set her arm outside the tub so they would not hit it.
Maddie’s eyes darted about the room. “Alex, what are we doing?”
“Hush, love, trust me,” he whispered into her ear.
He leaned her head back against his shoulder and softly caressed her upper body. “Close your eyes and relax, Maddie. I will not hurt you.”
He bent her knees up and caressed her legs slowly, easing them apart. With his one hand, he slowly caressed her breast, rolling her nipple between his thumb and finger. He slipped a finger of his other hand inside her and used his thumb on her nub.
Maddie shifted her position so he could have better access to her core. She didn’t understand the sensations flowing through her body. They were both wonderful and torturous at the same time. Without realizing, her legs moved apart and she moaned. Her eyes opened and she flushed with embarrassment at her position.
“Och, lass, you are torturing me.” Alex stood up, dried her languorously, then helped her into the bed.
Confusion settled in on her. Why had he stopped? Hanging over the edge of something, she didn’t want him to end the sweet agony. Desire made her frantic. She finally whispered, “Alex, I need more.”
“Aye, sweeting, we are not done. Now we will find our pleasure together.”
A slow smile crept across her face. He slid in beside her and kissed her hungrily. She pushed him away.
“Alex, can I touch you?” she whispered. “I want to touch you like you touch me. Show me.”
He pulled her hand down onto his erection. She grasped him carefully and he groaned.
