Chapter 12 #2

palm against the flap of his breeches. He sucked his breath in as

she rubbed his already rigid cock. “I want to feel you rise again

and again.”

“You will, my tigress,” he rumbled, pushing

his pelvis against her hand and rolling her onto her back in one

swift motion. “You will.”

Leaning on his elbows, he covered her body

with his and cupped her face with his hands.

“You realize your father will likely kill me

for this,” he said, while he still had sense enough to think.

She twined her arms around his neck. “I will

kill you if you don’t,” she growled low.

“Then let us burn together on my funeral

pyre,” he whispered hoarsely, lowering his mouth to hers,

plundering with wet, hot kisses. When she gasped for air, he laid

claim with his tongue, dueling and dancing with hers until they

were both panting. He nipped her lower lip and trailed kisses along

the line of her jaw and down her neck to the hollow of her

throat.

Then he stopped and lifted his head.

“No,” she pleaded. “Don’t stop.”

Aleksi sat up, his hips straddling hers. “I’m

not stopping, my tigress,” he said, his voice thick and low. He

reached up and pulled his tunic over his head and tossed it to the

ground.

He motioned for her to lift her arms, and

then he relieved her of his oversized tunic with one long, slow

pull. Her nipples pebbled in the brisk night air, and grew hard

under his hungry gaze. He lowered his head and she moaned and

arched her back as he licked and suckled first one breast and then

the other.

He kissed and nibbled his way from her

breasts to her belly, rested his chin on her hipbone as he took the

tie to her breeches in his teeth and pulled, grinning when she

sucked in her belly and groaned. Slowly, he peeled her breeches

down to her legs, his mouth following, kissing and nipping a path

from the inside of her thighs to her spreading knees, her twitching

calves, and then to her ankles.

She was naked from head to toe, her body

exposed to the night and him. He stood and swiftly shucked his

breeches.

Sahar’s heavy-lidded eyes grew wide as she

took in the sight of his cock at full measure before she held her

arms out to him. “Come burn with me, my stallion,” she growled.

Aleksi lowered himself over her, covering her

body with his, skin to skin, heart to beating heart. At first, he

kissed her, softly, tenderly, then his kiss grew in need and

intensity as he ran his hands up and down her sides, her belly, her

legs. She matched him kiss for kiss, her body warm and pliant under

his touch, her hands exploring his chest, his back, his belly, and

his backside. He tangled his fingers in the black curls between her

legs and moaned as she opened to his touch. He cupped her mound and

groaned at her wet heat.

“You burn for me, my tigress,” he rasped, “as

I burn for you.”

He kissed her mouth, hard and hungry, her

breathless gasps urging him on as he kissed his way down her chest

and her belly. He nuzzled his head between her thighs and kissed

her burning flesh.

“Oh,” she gasped, and then purred,

“Ooohhh.”

“You like that, my tigress?”

“Oh yes.”

“You taste of smoked honey,” he said, drawing

slow circles with his tongue.

“I do?” she panted.

“Oh, yes,” he said, kissing the inside of her

thigh. “I knew you would from the moment I laid eyes on you.”

“I, oh, ooh, Aleksi…”

Her words melted into incoherent moans and

sighs as he licked and suckled her nub and she groaned and spread

her legs wider, moving her body in slow, sensuous circles until she

went stiff and still, her sweet juices melting on his tongue as she

gasped out his name.

Aleksi took her mouth with his, drinking in

his name on her lips, his hunger for her all-consuming. He covered

her face with kisses, moved to her neck, the hollow of her throat,

tasting the salty sweet sweat of her skin as her passions cooled

and his inflamed.

He brushed her tangled hair back from her

face and kissed her again, long, measured, and slow. He had wanted

her so badly for so long, and now that he finally had her, he

didn’t intend to come undone and spill his seed like some untried

lad.

Her breathing slowed, and he gazed into her

unfocused heavy-lidded eyes. He kissed her again, touching his lips

to hers as he settled his hips between her legs and gently probed

her with his cock.

“This may hurt a little at first,” he

whispered against her lips.

She smiled, slow and languid. “I’m

ready.”

Aleksi groaned as Sahar lifted her legs. He

plundered her mouth with his tongue, and her body with his thrust.

She flinched, and he stilled, his cock growing even harder inside

the warm, wet heat of her.

“Ahh, my tigress,” he murmured. “You

feel—”

“Wonderful.” She sighed.

“So wonderful,” he rasped, his voice as

ragged as his slipping control, “that I cannot hold back much

longer.”

“Then don’t,” she said, her voice low. “Let

yourself go, my stallion.” She smiled, slow, sensuous, and knowing.

“Burn with me.”

“I burn for you,” he whispered fiercely as he

pulled back slightly. “I burn with you,” he groaned, pushing back

in, licking his lips at the wet, hot friction of her. “We will burn

together, you and I,” he swore as the heat and friction increased
