Tierra cried out in surprise, but her exposed nipples tightened under his careful scrutiny. "Youa"you ruined my tunic."
His gaze remained fixed on her b.r.e.a.s.t.s. "You have no need for it."
She had no chance to respond to his arrogant reply. His large hands moved to her b.r.e.a.s.t.s and she trembled at his possessive touch. G.o.ds above, he was going to drive her mad from the feel of his calloused fingers sc.r.a.ping against the silken skin of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s and the raspberries of her nipples.
He lowered his head, flicking his tongue all around the pale flesh of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s, staying clear of her nipples. Her quim tingled and flooded with moisture.
"From this point forward, you do as I say," he murmured. "And only as I allow."
"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d..." She grasped for his c.o.c.k with her bound hands, wrapping her fingers around his hard shaft, needing to feel it again. "You are not my master."
"Yes, denai, I am." Renn"s hands roved over her bared skin, caressing her waist, her belly, her arms. His tongue laved her nipple and she went wild from the feel of it, a choked cry spilling from her lips. He moved his mouth to her other breast and bit her nipple. "You belong to me now."
"Never." Her refusal sounded weak even to her own ears, and she added, "I belong to no man."
He grabbed her wrists, forcing her to release his c.o.c.k, then eased her back to lie upon the tree"s wide arms and the blue moss bed. "No man but me."
"Ha," she said as he knelt at her feet.
In a quick movement he yanked off her brogans, then tore away her breeches, yet in a manner that he managed to not hurt her.
"d.a.m.n you." She gritted her teeth and struggled to kick him away, just on principle. If she had succeeded, she would have been disappointed.
Renn merely smiled and straddled her, trapping her slender legs beneath him, his c.o.c.k pressing against her mound, his muscled a.s.s against her thighs. He ripped each sleeve of her garment then tossed aside the worthless cloth, leaving her entirely naked. Cool wind brushed her flesh. She felt raw and exposed and so incredibly wanton.
The flex of Renn"s muscles, the power in his body, mesmerized Tierra, no matter how angry she was that he had shredded her clothing. A part of her wanted to reject his manhandling, but another part enjoyed the erotic play. The thrill of being chased and then caught by her mighty warrior.
His expression was savagely sensual as he studied her naked form, pausing to rest on the red curls at her apex. With one finger he stroked the curls and smiled. "You are soaked with your juices. You desire me to f.u.c.k you, to drive my c.o.c.k into your tight core."
Tierra brought her bound hands to his c.o.c.k, brushing it with her fingertips as she watched his eyes. He pretended disinterest, but the desire in his gaze intensified.
"Take me now." She raised her hips, pressed her mound against his teasing finger and moaned. Her body was burning and she couldn"t stop from writhing beneath him.
"In the land I hail from, I am referred to as "my Lord."" He took both her nipples and rolled them between his thumb and forefinger. "You are to refer to me as such if you do not wish to be punished."
Tierra shook her head. "I will not."
He pinched her nipples harder and she gasped from the erotic sensation. "I command you, wench."
When she refused again, he slid one hand into her ma.s.s of fiery red hair. His smile was feral as he lowered his head and brushed his lips over hers. "You will scream it before I am through with you."
Renn gently nipped at Tierra"s bottom lip, small sensual bites that made her tremble with wanting for him. She parted her lips, wanting to taste him again, wanting to feel his tongue within her mouth.
Tierra moaned as his tongue explored her, his breath mingling with hers. The world seemed to tilt and spin and she became completely lost in his kiss. His stubbled face chafed her lips, her mouth, her cheeks. The kiss lasted forever, then ended too soon when he moved his lips to her neck. She struggled to catch her breath, wishing he would free her so that she could clench her fingers in his hair and draw him closer.
He flicked his tongue down her skin to the hollow of her throat, and on to the curve of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s. "What would you have me do now?"
"My nipples." Tierra sucked in her breath. "Lick them."
Renn trailed his tongue everywhere but those taut nubs that were aching for him. "And what must you do?"
The b.a.s.t.a.r.d was going to make her say it. She bit her tongue, not wanting to give in, but desiring his touch too badly. "Please suck my nipples," she paused before adding, "my Lord."
His smile was wholly sensual, erotically male. "Very good, wench."
Tierra wanted to slap him, but her hands were still bound. And then he captured her first nipple between his teeth and she cried out, arching her back and thrusting her breast more firmly into his mouth.
"So sweet." The thrum of his voice vibrated through her, straight to her quim. "Chocolatyl and raspberry wine."
Renn smiled as he kissed a trail down Tierra"s belly and she squirmed beneath him. The maid wanted him as badly as he wanted her. After what she had put him through, he would enjoy making her play this erotic game of Lord and wench. He would delight in having her beg.
"I cannot wait." Her voice was husky, her eyes heavy-lidded with desire. "I need you now."
"Yes...?" he prompted her as he reared back and knelt between her thighs on the bluewood tree"s fine moss.
"Please...my Lord." She actually looked contrite as she widened her legs. "f.u.c.k me."
G.o.ds but he almost groaned aloud. Almost gave in to her request. It was as though his c.o.c.k was a divining rod, pulling him towards her hot center.
He took a deep breath and reined back his l.u.s.t. "When I am ready, wench." Fighting for every last bit of control, he scooted down "til his face was above her quim.
"b.a.s.t.a.r.d," she moaned as Renn nuzzled the soft fiery red hair on her mound. The sweet scent of her woman"s musk made his c.o.c.k so hard he feared he"d burst and spill his seed upon the bluewood tree instead of within her womb.
He took his time, trailing kisses and light flicks of his tongue across her mound, to the juncture of her thighs. Tierra cried out, her juices flooding her quim. "What would you like now?" he asked as he slowly kissed the inside of her thigh.
"Touch me.. .my Lord." The way she said it this time told him it aroused her to play this game, too. If it had not, Renn would have stopped it and changed his tune.
In truth, he wanted to tease and arouse her, not upset her.
Perhaps I am losing my mind. No female should affect me like this. Even one so.. .incredibly desirable...
Renn flicked his tongue along the inside of her knee, a slow and teasing stroke. "Where would you have me touch?"
"My c.l.i.t." Tierra"s voice trembled as he moved closer to her mound. She grasped at his hair with her bound hands. "Please lick my c.l.i.t, my Lord."
"Good, wench." Renn rumbled his approval and dove for the silky flesh.
The moment his tongue laved the tight nub, Tierra gasped and thrust her quim against his mouth. "Yes, my Lord. Yes!"
G.o.ds but her taste was finer than he had imagined. A sweet elixir that threatened to intoxicate him. He swirled his tongue around her swollen folds, teasing the taut nub and then leaving it to dip his tongue into her hot channel. As her thighs began to tremble, it was all he could do to remember the game and stop before she climaxed.
When he raised his head to look at Tierra, her eyes were glazed, her breathing shallow. "Don"t stop, my Lord. I am so close."
"I wish to f.u.c.k you now." He rose up so that his hands were at either side of her head, his c.o.c.k against her belly. "Would that please you, wench?"
She nodded. Her emerald eyes were dreamy with excitement, but Renn still saw a flash. A bit of fire that told him someday, somehow, she would make him pay for his teasing.
The thought nearly made him spill again.
"Answer me out loud," he instructed. "I want to hear the words."
Raising her bound hands, she brushed her fingertips along his chest. "Please." Tierra"s voice was naught but a gasp.
Renn reached for his c.o.c.k with one hand, placed it against her c.l.i.t and rubbed the nub. "Please...what?"
A sheen of sweat coated her body, and she trembled from the force of her need. "Please f.u.c.k me, my Lord."
"You are mine, denai." Renn moved the head of his c.o.c.k to her tight core. "I will be the only man to possess you. Ever."
He stilled as his own words shocked him near speechless. By the G.o.ds, if he took Tierra now, would he ever be able to let her go?
Chapter Five.
No. As Renn stared down at Tierra, ready to claim her maidenhead, he knew with absolute certainty that he would never allow this maid to leave his side. G.o.ds knew he never believed he could desire a woman like he did this one.
As though she had been created just for him. His match. A female who could give him as good as he gave. Who challenged him and left him wanting more.
He nearly growled his possession aloud, feeling an overpowering urge to change to bird form, pump his wings and mate-cry for all to hear.
Tierra was his woman.
"Please, my Lord." She reached for his chest again with her bound hands, her face flushed, her eyes dark with pa.s.sion. "I need to feel you inside me."
Inhaling her sweet honeysuckle perfume and the scent of her juices, Renn fought back the incredible desire to thrust his c.o.c.k into her. The desire to make her his in one fast, deep stroke.
No, if he gave into his l.u.s.t he might hurt her. And he would never harm his sweet innocent in any way.
Instead, he lowered his head and brushed his lips over hers, tasting her breath, her unique flavor. Tierra moaned into his mouth as he gently bit her bottom lip. In return she nipped at him, taking the flesh between her teeth and flicking her tongue against it.
Renn"s arms trembled with the force of holding himself back, wanting to give her as much pleasure as possible. He plunged his tongue deep into her mouth and she took him with another greedy moan.
When he pulled away, she said, "Now. Please, my Lord."
He wrapped his hand around his c.o.c.k and gently pushed it into her slick quim, feeling the heaven of her channel gripping him as he reached her barrier. "You will feel pain, but it will ease." His gut clenched at the thought of giving his denai anything but pleasure. "Do you understand?"
Tierra shifted on the moss bed and pressed against Renn, her heart pounding with a touch of both fear and excitement. A breeze slid across her skin, cooling her heated flesh and rustling the blue tree"s leaves around them.
"Answer me," he commanded. "Are you ready for me?"
"Yes, my Lord." She wiggled and pushed her hips tighter toward him, feeling the intense pressure of his c.o.c.k against her maidenhead.
Renn reached between their bodies and found her c.l.i.t with his thumb, his gaze focused intently upon her. The sensation was incredible with his thick rod partially inside her, his sweat-slick skin against hers, his thumb teasing and stroking her c.l.i.t. His male scent and the smell of their s.e.x filled her, surrounded her, adding to the fierce sensations she was feeling in her quim as he stroked her swollen nub.
Her body began to vibrate and she started to close her eyes.
"Look at me, Tierra," Renn demanded as his thumb circled her c.l.i.t and she snapped her eyes wide. "Watch me take you."
His command, along with the possessiveness in his voice and in his gaze, threw her over the edge into oblivion. "My Lord!" she cried out as she climaxed, and at the same moment he thrust into her, tearing past her shield.
The quick burst of pain only intensified the o.r.g.a.s.m that continued to rock and shake her body even as he moved his c.o.c.k in and out of her. "G.o.ds but you grip me tight." Renn clenched his teeth. "I have never felt.. .anything.. .like you."
"Renn." Tierra could scarce form a thoughta"she could only feel. His thick length filled her, stretched her. Even as her o.r.g.a.s.m faded, another one swelled within. Her head grew warm, her vision blurred. "Please, my Lord," she begged, yet had no idea what she was asking for.
"Am I hurting you?" Renn slowed, but did not halt his thrusts.
"Don"t stop." She shook her head, feeling wild and dizzy and crazy for him. "Please, my Lord. It feels so good."
"I will f.u.c.k you "til you scream." He hooked his arms behind her knees, raising her a.s.s off the moss bed of the tree, pounding even deeper into her quim. The hair around his c.o.c.k mated with her fiery mound, his b.o.l.l.o.c.ks slapping her a.s.s. "Scream my name when you come," he demanded.
"Ia"I don"t..." Tierra glanced from his eyes to where they were joined. She caught her breath to see his c.o.c.k, wet with her juices, sliding in and out of her quim.
Oh, G.o.ds. The sight of him inside her was unbelievably erotic. This time her climax was so intense that sparks exploded all around her. "Renn!" she shrieked without even meaning to.
"Denai." His name for her tore from his lips in a powerful growl. His body jerked once, twice, thrice, and he came.
Renn"s mouth swooped down to possess hers, a fierce and pa.s.sionate kiss that stole away her very breath as his hot seed spewed inside her quim. Her channel continued to contract around him, feeling every throb of his c.o.c.k "til his seed was spent within her womb.
"Mine." His words were a throaty growl against her lips as he continued, "You belong to me."
Renn held Tierra tight as she slept in his arms, facing him, her b.r.e.a.s.t.s pressed against his chest. He had removed the leather strap from her wrists long ago, as soon as she had fallen asleep. She had pa.s.sed into the world of dreams almost at once, obviously exhausted from their intense bout of f.u.c.king.
Gently he stroked her naked hip, reveling in the feel of her soft skin beneath his calloused fingertips.
My heartmate.
The moment the words entered Renn"s mind, he frowned. He had always scoffed at fools of men who had found themselves besotted with a woman. Love between a man and a woman.. .it was an emotion he had never believed real.
s.e.x had been the only thing he gave credence. Mutual gratification between willing partners.
He continued stroking Tierra"s perfect flesh, trailing his fingers down her hip to her thigh and back up to her waist.
What was this feeling that burned deep within in his soul whenever he was near Tierra? Whenever he caught her scent...whenever he looked upon her...whenever he touched her? The feeling smoldered within his chest, a fire that grew more intense every moment he was in her presence.
And yet, the times she had run from him, did not the feeling almost suffocate him? As though a part of him had gone missing, and he had to retrieve her at once, else be incomplete?
Could this feeling be love?
Or was he confusing it with desire? The need to drive his c.o.c.k into Tierra"s hot quim, to f.u.c.k her "til she screamed his name, to fill her womb with his seed, and to see her belly swell with his child...
Renn"s hand stilled.
By the G.o.ds. He had become one of the sotted fools he had so oft taunted, like Aric and Jalen both.
