She shook her head, though she knew he was right.
"Is there something you would like to tell me?" he asked.
"Nay." Did he sense she held a secret that would shake him to the core? She was going to have to do a better job of hiding her thoughts and feelings. Rebbie so easily breached her defenses and knocked down the walls she had erected around herself these last few years. His intelligent, midnight eyes could almost see through to her very soul. "Is there something you wish to tell me?" she asked.
"Aye, stop worrying. All will be well." He kissed her lips, snatching any rational thoughts from her mind. She could never get enough of his hot, delicious mouth. She stroked her hand over his sculpted chest muscles to his ridged abdomen and the narrow trail of dark hair that ran down his stomach and beneath the sheet.
He breathed out a soft moan.
Inhaling his appealing masculine scent, she pressed kisses to his chest and ran her tongue over one small, hard nipple.
"Mmm." He buried his hand in her hair.
Feeling emboldened by his favorable response, she continued. What would Rebbie like for her to do to him? Considering what he'd treated her to, nothing would shock him. Would he think her a strumpet if she…? Heat rushed over her in a scorching blaze. She should not, but his tempting male scent lured her lower. She flicked her tongue into his navel, just as he had done to her.
He hissed a sharp breath between his teeth. Glancing up at him, she found him watching her, his eyes almost closed. His face taut with need and his jaw clenched tight.
He removed his hand from her hair, then latched it onto a turned post of the headboard.
The hair on his lower abdomen tickled her lips. The muscles beneath tensed. Under the sheet, his shaft moved.
"Oh, saints, Calla," he whispered. "You're driving me mad."
She kissed him again, right above the sheet, then smiled up at him.
"Don't tease me," he said between clenched teeth.
"Very well." She slowly tugged the sheet down, exposing him. His shaft was at full mast and raring to go. She had caught glimpses of it before, but never truly examined it at close range.'Twasa most appealing sight that made her want to crawl atop him and have her way with him, but… not yet. Leaning forward, she kissed the tip.
He growled a Gaelic word she couldn't understand, his muscles hardening like granite.
"Calla," he breathed in a desperate tone.
"Aye,m'laird." She glanced up at him with her best innocent look. "What do you wish?"
He muttered a nonsensical word and squeezed his eyes shut, teeth grinding.
She'd never seen him more aroused, and she feared he would break the headboard post if his muscles tensed any further.
She grasped hold of his shaft and kissed the tip again, then licked it.
He rasped a guttural curse, his body trembling as he watched her with a dark and dangerous gaze.
She had never done anything like this before, and wondered what else he might enjoy. What she might enjoy. Opening her mouth, she drew the tip inside and marveled at the smooth but velvety texture of him and the sensual taste.
Suddenly, he grasped her shoulders, pulling her away. "Damnation, I can't take it," he growled, near out of control. He pushed her down onto the bed, spread her legs and thrust into her depths.
"Aye." She lifted her hips, encouraging him to do what he would. Now holding onto the bed posts herself, she thrust her hips. Her legs hooked over his arms, he went wild, hammering into her. Such erotic rapture that lashed through her, she could hardly fathom.'Twasa raw passion that eclipsed all reason.
"Ahh, Rebbie!"
Seconds later, the pleasure bombarded her, just as he held himself deep within her, shuddering at the peak of his own release. The ecstasy ebbed gradually as her mind came back to her.
Gasping for breath, he fell to the mattress beside her with a curse. He breathed hard as if he'd just rushed up a mountain. "Saints above! You're trying to annihilate me."
She giggled. "Aye,m'laird."
He rolled atop her, captured her wrists and held them above her head. Looking into her eyes, he placed a sweet kiss upon her lips. "You near drove me mad… truly. I've never…" He groaned.
