Twenty-Two #2
Camilla felt the air stir around her as he moved, closing his mouth over the peak of her breast, where it pressed against the soft fabric of her nightgown. The unexpected heat and wet of his mouth sent a shock of pleasure through her as his teeth grazed over her again.
A moan slipped past her lips as Synton’s erotic kiss soaked through her nightgown, causing a different sort of wetness to form between her legs.
He held her steady, his big hands gripping her waist, nestled just above the curve of her bottom. His tongue began stroking softly, drawing as much pleasure from her body as he could.
He moved to her other breast, licking and sucking over the thin material until she could no longer think straight.
Too soon, she felt him straighten, her damp nightgown now clinging to her.
“My lord…”
He let out a low sound of amusement, and she could have sworn he whispered he was anything but before he walked her backward until her thighs brushed against the edge of the bed.
“Sit.”
Camilla did, her body tingling and eager for his next kiss.
She couldn’t see him, but she felt his gaze on her, searing and heavy like a physical caress. She knew with certainty that if she could see him, there wouldn’t be anything cold or dark in his eyes now. He would be ravenous, filled with need. Just like her.
Perhaps that was why he wanted her eyes covered—so she wouldn’t know the effect she had on him. She loved and loathed the blindfold—loved how it allowed her to anticipate his next move and loathed that she couldn’t watch him perform it.
“Unless you’d like me to stop, I’m going to kiss you again, Camilla.”
“Please,” her voice was low and husky, “don’t stop.”
He firmly pressed her back until she lay across the bed. Strong hands closed around her ankles, tugging her closer to the edge of the mattress.
His touch sent shivers of pleasures through her.
Silence stretched, the air growing thick with tension.
Camilla wondered if he was staring down at her, and if he was, what his expression looked like now.
Another whisper of movement. Was he kneeling?
She jolted at the unexpected sensation of his mouth on her leg, her gasps turning sharp and uneven. He traced little lines of pleasure from her ankle to her calf, tasting his way upward.
Her breath caught when he paused behind her knee. His powerful hands settled on either thigh, palms flattened there for a moment, rubbing gently. Comforting. Seducing.
Camilla fidgeted, wanting to see him.
Then his hands were moving again, slowly pushing her thighs apart, exposing her aching flesh. She stilled. She’d forgotten that she’d taken her underwear off, wanting to sleep with nothing between her skin and soft lace.
He cursed, and she wasn’t sure he’d meant to. The harsh word igniting her desire even more.
Then he waited, as if testing to see if she would balk. A woman of her station was taught to demur, to deny her passions. To feel shame when she shouldn’t.
The blindfold made her bold.
She slowly widened her legs. Cool air kissed her most sensitive area, her heart pounding as she waited to see what he would do next.
He groaned, as if he could no longer hold himself back, the sound a tortured growl of pure need.
Then his mouth closed over her sex. The first swirl of his tongue was delicate, chaste almost. The second was criminal. His stroke more powerful, demanding. A lazy lick that turned decidedly wicked.
Camilla arched up from the bed, moaning as his tongue parted the folds of her, swirling and then stroking deeper.
“Fuck,” he said, pausing for a moment to kiss the inside of her thigh. “You taste incredible.”
His mouth was on her again, his teeth grazing the bundle of nerves.
A slight nip, a jerk of her body, then he lapped up her desire.
It was pleasure with an edge of pain, and nothing had ever felt so good.
Her body throbbed as he suckled her flesh, spreading her legs wider so he could feast like a king.
He teased her by kissing along her inner thighs, grazing over her sex to the other leg, his breath hot against her arousal.
He certainly liked drawing out each move until she almost cursed.
He blew across her clit, then pressed another chaste kiss to it. Teasing. Maddening. Her flesh growing so slick and engorged it almost hurt.
“Please.” She fisted the sheets, trying to remember why moaning was a bad idea.
“So proper and polite,” he purred against her, his tongue touching her lightly.
She bucked as his mouth closed on her again, his tongue curling slightly inside her.
He did not seem to share her worry about noise. His groan was more animal than human when his tongue touched her again.
Then he kissed her again there, his tongue sliding over the most glorious place she’d ever felt, alternating between flicking and lathing. She arched up from the bed again, panting.
He kept up that wondrously sinful lathing, but her body needed more. She wanted him deeper. Inside her. Pounding in time to that growing, throbbing, aching sensation.
“Oh, my…”
He penetrated her with his tongue, driving deep inside her, and she swallowed a cry of pleasure. His tongue was glorious, thrusting, stroking. Heat bolted up her spine.
The Lord of Syn was making love to her with his wicked mouth. Camilla’s legs opened wider, needing him to press closer, the fire lashing along her body as he owned her with his sinful kiss.
“Oh, my God.”
Another growl.
“I assure you He has nothing to do with this.”
Synton’s hands hardened their hold on her hips, keeping her in place. As if she would move away now. She’d stay prone for all eternity as long as he kept doing that with his unholy, lovely mouth.
She still couldn’t see him, but the image filled her mind—Synton kneeling between her legs, hands buried in her lacy nightgown, head bent to her as if he were an acolyte to her body.
Her hips bucked upward, needing more.
Synton tended to her with renewed vigor, his warm tongue gliding over and inside her with such perfection that Camilla didn’t care if God or the devil himself was involved. This man could drag her down to hell and she’d gladly burn for eternity.
She wanted him to go deeper, to never stop.
He replaced his tongue with his fingers, sliding them across her folds.
It felt so good, Camilla had to bite down on her lip to keep from crying out. She thrashed as that delicious feeling continued to crest into a wave of pleasure, gripping the sheets so tightly she feared they’d shred.
Synton gently hoisted her legs over his shoulders, pinning her to the bed with one large hand as he feasted.
“Come for me, Camilla.”
It was a command.
“Come all over my tongue. Now.”
And she loved it.
Each glorious stroke had that bundle of nerves growing tighter, hotter, coiled and ready to send fire through her veins as her release found her.
Camilla rocked her hips forward, fingers threading into his hair, tugging his face closer, earning a growl of approval that vibrated so deeply, she went tumbling over the edge, her body taking flight as pleasure rippled through her in one hot wave after the last. She’d orgasmed before, but this was unlike anything else.
This made her want to stay in this bedchamber forever.
He didn’t let up, his fingers and tongue continuing to ride her through the sensation until another orgasm barreled through her. She cried out as the next orgasm sent her straight out of her body, floating somewhere far away.
Synton’s ministrations slowed to languid strokes, not stopping until the final wave broke, leaving Camilla feeling boneless and spent. She collapsed back, breathing heavily.
“That…” Was a religious experience. If he was the Lord of Syn, she’d happily become the worst sinner there was.
He kissed her inner thigh one last time, then gently set her trembling legs down.
She felt the heat of him leave. His jacket rustled, the air stirred. Then all was quiet.
He couldn’t have…
Camilla sat up, ripped off the blindfold, and blinked. The room was empty. She stared around her, emotions whirling from one extreme to the next.
There was no way he’d done that and then left. Without a word.
“Synton,” she hissed, furious.
And unless she’d been in some suspended stupor from his talented mouth, he’d moved faster than anyone should be able to.
Still, he didn’t return.
The immeasurable ass had in fact given her an orgasm to end all orgasms, then left.
She stared at the door, body still trembling from the aftershocks, wondering how Synton could go from such burning passion to cold indifference that swiftly.
If he was playing a game with her, he would regret it.
Camilla decided right then that instead of showing him how angry she was, she, too, could play. She’d adopt his mask of indifference. Let him be humbled too.
She tossed herself back onto the bed, staring at the ceiling, rethinking the whole encounter. It took far longer to get her annoyance under control than she cared to admit. But once she did, she puzzled his behavior out more clearly.
The blindfold.
The mention of only tonight.
The abrupt departure.
In some way, she was certain, he’d bared himself more than she had.
There was something he desperately didn’t want her to see, which only made her more curious to unravel the mystery of his past. Forbidden things always intrigued her.
And Lord Synton, mercurial moods, gruffness and all, was very tempting indeed.
