Renegades by Austina Love Page A

back in a powerful embrace. She welcomed the taste of his tongue into her mouth as a soft moan escaped her when the kiss deepened. Tension melted away and a burning desire drove the day’s stress from her mind, her body and her world. Everything felt right in his arms.
    Without breaking the kiss, he scooped her off the couch as he pushed to his feet. Her arms curled around his neck and she eagerly returned his ardent kiss. Delicately he laid her on his bed then stood back to undress. She couldn’t look away even as her cheeks flooded with heat from looking upon him. Though she’d seen his nakedness before, it had been by a glimpse or subtle glance during their lovemaking. Watching him disrobe in the light of day ignited a fire in her soul that craved relief.
    From the glistening long black hair to his lean powerfully built legs he was a superior example of pure male potency. Her gaze drifted over him, beginning at his seductive charcoal eyes set perfectly above a straight nose, then lingering on sensual lips that made her mouth water to taste them again. He possessed magnificent bone structure, fiercely masculine but not overly pretty. Her intense visual wandered lower. Every muscle in those long tanned arms flexed with the slightest movement. Rippling abs touched with the sheen of light sweat beckoned for her touch.
    An ache welled between her thighs as her gaze dropped below the soft trail of hair descending from his sexy navel. The sudden urge to feel him inside again deluged her.
    Once his clothes lay in a pile on the floor he moved toward her. His eyes never left hers as he eased her cutoff shorts down her thighs, caressing her ankles as he did so. Those long fingers glided up her legs, over her midriff then beneath her black half top. She released a quivering breath as he lovingly fondled her bare breasts.
    “Shadow…” he murmured. “You are so very beautiful, my love.”
    He bared her soul with his eyes just as easily as he’d removed her clothes. Tears pooled at the corners of her eyes when he laid over her, bracing his weight on bent elbows. Overcome by emotion, she didn’t speak but responded with touch. He watched her with half closed eyes and sensually parted lips in the most sexual expression she’d ever seen as her hands moved over his hard body. Long lashes fringed the smoldering gaze that made love to her before their bodies even joined.
    Nudging her thighs apart with one knee, he lowered his body to hers and his mouth dipped to the soft swell of her bosom. A gasp escaped her as his hard length pushed into the depths of her womanly heat and warm moist lips closed over one tingling peak of her breast then the other as he began to thrust inside.
    She moved easily with him. No awkwardness, just smooth rhythm as they settled into a steady pace. Loving arms slid beneath her back, crushing her to his chest as his lips found hers again. They merged into a heady kiss laden with tongue. He tasted amazing and she hungered to taste every inch of him as she’d done before. And she knew that his ravenous tongue would pleasure her in a way only he could do—something they would indulge in later, she had no doubt.
    Blissful tightening welled in her core. His pace increased. Rapt in passion, they entwined about one another, rising higher and higher. Soft groaning mixed with heavy breathing floated overher as he filled her with his love. His sex swelled inside, stretching and stroking every inch of her core, relieving the ache of desire.
    They couldn’t seem to get close enough. His hands went to her hair as he kissed her hard. She felt his fingers tangle in the strands and take a tight hold as his body tensed.
    Her nails raked up his back with her ankles locked behind his thighs. She wanted to scream, cry out or shout her pleasure to the heavens but his mouth held hers captive in a blaze of passionate heat. He drove into her repeatedly until her entire body felt ready to explode. Soaked in sweat, they slid
