tongue slipped alongside hers, coaxing it to
react, she lost her sense of concentration and instinct took over. She wound
her tongue around his and at the same time shifted in his lap to where she
straddled his waist. It didn’t matter she’d exposed the center of her thighs.
Nor did it matter the moisture flowing from her body absorbed into his
loincloth right where his hard organ pressed against her flesh. She wanted to
snuggle beneath his skin but she couldn’t seem to get close enough.
He retracted his hands from her face and placed them on her
lower back and neck. Their lips remained interlocked as he carefully flipped
her backward onto the ground. She sank quickly into the furs from his weight
bearing down on her body. The fibers brushed against her shoulders and spine.
Her skin became so sensitive she was aware of every single strand tickling her
flesh.
She latched on to his upper arms. Thick muscle hardened
beneath her palms as he propped himself above her, his elbows bearing the brunt
of his weight. She’d never felt so small or in lack of control but an exciting
thrill rushed through her veins. She was secure, protected and she turned her
body over to him completely, trusting he’d treat her gently regardless of his
size and strength.
He broke the kiss and rested his forehead against hers.
“Ivy, I’ve changed my mind,” he said, his breath shaky as it sawed in and out
of his broad chest. “I have only one thing to say.”
Oh no. He couldn’t change his mind. He couldn’t. She
hadn’t led him this far to let him back down. Her heart plummeted. She laid her
hands on the back of his head and stroked his hair, holding him in case she was
drawn to beg. “Yes?” she reluctantly asked.
“If you’re going to run, do it now because I won’t give you
another opportunity.”
Those words were so final and had the potential to scare her
yet they enchanted her to the bone. Maybe she’d misunderstood them but she
certainly hadn’t misunderstood his tone. Could she handle it if he got carried
away or unexpectedly became rough?
A smidgen of reluctance mixed with excitement wiggled along
her spine. The thought alone of bringing him to this point made her tummy spin
in pride and no way would she bail now. “I’m not going anywhere.”
He rolled off her, rising to his haunches between her
thighs. “That was your only chance.”
His dark gaze displayed hunger as it caressed her body from
her brows to her thighs. The same raw hunger she’d witnessed only in the cave
lion’s eyes.
“Don’t move,” he commanded as he started to rise.
“Where are you going?”
Rather than take a full stance he relaxed into a squat. “To
get a condom.”
“What is that?”
His gaze strolled across her breasts to her hips then to her
face. “It will prevent me from planting my seed inside your womb,” he explained
as he stood.
“Wait.” She sat up and took hold of his hand. “You don’t
want a child?”
His features softened. “I want a lot of children.”
“Then why would you prevent it from happening? I can give
you many babies.”
He returned to a squat. “You would risk abandonment by your
people to cross bloodlines with me?”
“Yes,” she said stroking her palm lightly across his cheek.
“Only with you.” She lowered her lashes and swallowed. “But if you don’t want
me to birth your children I’ll understand.”
“My God, Ivy,” he said as he began to lay her down, “before
you, life and children were just a dream. You’re the woman I want. And the only
woman I want to have my babies.”
Her emotions swelled. “Then we don’t need the condom,
right?”
“Right.” He gently rested her head on the ground. “ Be
warned. Now you’re mine.”
She gulped. The fire crackled but she’d barely heard it
above his sharp intake of air. With a smile that encased her heart, he rose
onto all fours above her body, placing his hands on either side of her
shoulders. Possessively. Like the
react, she lost her sense of concentration and instinct took over. She wound
her tongue around his and at the same time shifted in his lap to where she
straddled his waist. It didn’t matter she’d exposed the center of her thighs.
