.She moaned and arched againsthis clever mouth, certain she would die if he stopped and fearing she would burn in hell if he continued.Itwas torture.It was rapture.It was heaven and hell.Fire surged through her veins, mixed with her blood,spread through her nerve endings.Stiff with mounting tension, Rose clung to the pinnacle, then splintered into a thousand pieces as sharppleasure pierced her body.She drew a shallow breath and moaned helplessly163as Dragon slid upward, parted her damp cleft and drove inside her while her body was still vibrating.Shearched her hips against him, clinging desperately as he began a savage rhythm that carried her still higher.What she felt was primitive, raw, feral.Her body responded to his with renewed passion as Dragonreleased something wild and tumultuous inside her.******************Dominic felt Rose reach for the peak and deliberately slowed his pace.He waited until she steadied, untilshe was one step away from the edge, then went in deep and held still.Her hips thrust up against him."Dominic! Please.""Do not move."Another long in-and-out slide sent her into spasms.Hot honey bathed his cock, and the evocative scentof their loving spurred him to the pinnacle as her muscles locked tightly around him.He wanted toprolong her climax, but his own was coming too fast.She came apart in his arms.After that, he lost touch with reality.The woman beneath him was his world; he recalled no other.Shewas everything that was sensual and lush.He sank into her, again and again, driving himself so high hefeared the fall back to earth would destroy him.And in a way it did.Shattered and broken, Dominic returned to reality with the frightening impression thathe would never be the same.Dominic flung himself away from Rose and settled down beside her.He could still feel his heart thuddingagainst his rib cage and he tried to make sense out of what had just happened.He had been certain thatthe 164passion he and Veronica shared was unparalleled, but he had been mistaken.Making love to Rose farsurpassed his most memorable moments with Veronica.Convincing himself that Rose was no differentfrom any other woman he had bedded was not going to be easy.Lord help him if Rose suspected howhe felt.He knew from experience that some women turned shrewish and demanding once they gainedsexual power over a man, and Dominic had too much pride to let his passions rule him.******************Rose realized that something of tremendous import had just happened.She wanted to deny it, but todeny the significance of what she and Dragon had just shared would be to label herself a wanton.Herheart and mind told her that no man but Dragon could wring the same kind of response from her.Thethought of kissing another man and doing the things she and Dragon did together was revolting.A sob found its way to her throat, and she choked it back.She did not want to like Dragon, foughtagainst it, but her will had betrayed her and her flesh was weak.Dragon created a fire in her blood thatmade her want him, made her forget that he served the king who had murdered her father.Turning away from Dragon, Rose forced herself to relax.When he moved close to her, she scooted tothe edge of the bed.She did not want him touching her, starting another blaze inside her.Rose closed her eyes and searched for sleep.She did not find it until she heard the even cadence of165Dragon's breathing and realized he would not attempt another assault upon her senses this night.******************Dragon was gone when Rose awoke the following morning.The fire had been kindled in the grate, andcozy warmth filled the chamber.She washed, dressed and hurried to the hall to break her fast.Dragonwas already enjoying a hearty breakfast when she joined him.As always, Raj stood behind him, his darkgaze scanning the hall for potential danger."I trust you slept well," Dragon said as she slipped into the chair beside him.He sounded rather distant,as if his mind were occupied elsewhere.Had he already forgotten the passionthey had shared last night? She hoped he had, for she intended to do the same.Dragon's ego was inflatedenough; he did not need to know that his loving had changed her life."I slept just fine, thank you," Rose answered with the same cool reserve."I rode out early to make sure your uncle and his kinsmen had returned to Scotland," Dragon said."I sawthe place where they had camped, but they were gone by the time I arrived [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
