To Love a Prince (Knights of Valor Book 1)(45)
Then he thrust forward and took her.
A whimper escaped her as she clung to him. He filled her, completely and totally, stretching her so she could take all of him.
Eli held her close as he waited for the pain to ebb, cradling her against him as he found her little bud.
He stroked her hair and caged his own need as he waited for her, as he eased her discomfort and replaced it with desire. Her body felt like hot silk wrapped around him, and as much as he wanted to finish what they’d started and take her completely, he also wanted her there with him. He wanted to share the ecstasy of their first joining.
He waited until her hips moved beneath him and need replaced pain before he eased back then filled her again.
Moving inside her, slowly, carefully, he waited for her to get used to the rhythm of this dance.
She gasped as she clung to him, the whimpers of pain fading into the quiet moans of growing desire.
He focused on her, watching need tighten her face, listening to her ragged breathing, and feeling her legs wrap around him. He understood her need and increased the intensity and speed of his rhythmic thrusts as he pushed them both towards the golden glow that beckoned.
She was so soft and fit tightly around him, amplifying all he felt. Need built within him and merged with the golden heat that promised the heights of pleasure.
She’d shown him how much she wanted him, and he gave, taking her, filling her, giving all of himself as he took all of her.
Need pooled like golden fire around them, and it exploded through her, shattering her and carrying her away on its golden tidal wave.
As she climaxed, she tightened around him and shuddered with fulfilled desire. The intensity of her release pushed him over the cliff with her, and with one final thrust, he lost himself in her.
Eli wrapped her in his arms as their pleasure quieted. His conqueror was satisfied, and his strategist was plotting how to deal with royal succession.
One thing was non-negotiable.
Auburn was his, and he was never letting her go.
Chapter 28
Auburn awoke with Eli’s arms wrapped around her as he held her close. The sun had yet to break the horizon, and she enjoyed him naked beside her.
A sleepy smile stole over her lips as she stretched her arms over her head and rubbed her bottom against him.
Eli groaned.
Her smile widened as his body responded to her provocation.
“Minx,” he said against her hair. Skating his hands along her sides, he teased over her full breasts then dipped lower and stroked the curve of her hip before tracing the long column of her thigh.
Lifting her leg, he draped it over his and eased into her.
A moan escaped Auburn as he stretched her, filled her, and touched her core. By the gods, he was so hot and hard inside her, but it felt so amazing. It was strange to be so exposed, so vulnerable, yet so protected.
Eli teased her flesh, tracing his fingers in almost reverent circles as he explored her. Palming her breasts, he thumbed over their sensitive peaks as he kissed the back of her neck.
Sensation shot through her, and molten heat stirred at her core, amplified by the fullness of him inside her. She gasped and pushed back against him, taking him deeper into her as he filled his hands with her breasts.
Desire swirled through her as his calloused fingers pressed against her soft mounds and his rigid length tapped her core. The clean rich scent of him intoxicated her, and she reveled in his hard masculinity surrounding her, filling her, completing her.
Eli lavished attention on her bare flesh as he moved inside her.
Heat bloomed inside her, sensitizing her skin and snaking through her limbs. Desire intensified the feel of his touch, making each kiss, each caress add to the rising need inside her. As he continued to taunt and tease her, his other hand moved lower, parting her womanly folds and finding her hidden pearl.
A gasp escaped her at the sizzling contact, and thought disappeared as she gave herself over to sensation. Reaching her arms back, she clung to him as he rubbed her tiny bud in time to his rhythmic thrusts.
The heat built faster, filling her, swirling through her senses as she moved her hips in time to his ministrations. She met his thrusts then arched forward to press more firmly against his hands.
“Eli,” she said, his name fading into a whimper of aching need.
He smiled against the smooth column of her neck and propelled her upward and onward, closer and closer to the golden glow of pleasure.
Desire, passion, and molten heat coalesced then crested, carrying Auburn with it into the brilliant waves of fulfilled passion.
With a final thrust, Eli held her against him as he joined her in golden bliss.
