“Scaring you?” she whispered only to have him tug her close again.

“Don’t ever do that to me again.” The command was muffled as his face was hidden in her neck.

He was kissing her before she could say anything and Kianti forgot all else. He lifted her higher against him, kicking the heavy door shut and carrying her into the house.

Chapter 11

A series of hushed directions whispered against Therin’s shoulder led him to Kianti’s bedroom.

“How’d you find me?” she asked once he’d set her to her feet and proceeded to undress her.

“Casey told me after I went to your place and found you gone,” he grumbled while tugging the sweater from her shoulders. A sunflower-yellow tank top followed.

“Why didn’t you try my cell?” She shivered as more of her body was bared to his sights and touch.

“Wanted to surprise you.” He squeezed her calf, silently urging her from the sweats and panties he’d tugged down to her feet. “Wasn’t until I came all the way out here that I got pissed as hell.”

“Why?” she whispered even as he lifted her bare form and settled her to the middle of the bed.

“What are you doing all the way out here in the middle of nowhere with a snowstorm barreling down on you?”

“I…” Kianti found she couldn’t lock in on the words she needed. She could only stare in awe as he stood over her, rugged and pissed off while shrugging out of his boots, jacket and toboggan.

“I have neighbors.” The words were slow in coming. She wanted to moan instead when he tugged the sweater over his head to reveal his muscle-cut abdomen. He was half-undressed, garbed only in the dark low-rise jeans.

Kianti left her explanations and snuggled into him when he covered her on the bed. She shivered anew at the sensation of his toned chest against her. The friction of the rough denim next to her bare thighs only enhanced her pleasure.

Their kissing resumed deep and heated. Therin cupped her neck in his hand to hold her still while he rotated his tongue around hers. She locked her legs high about his back and ground down on the delicious bulge straining behind the zipper of his jeans. Tingles riddled her body, but she reached down to help him out of the confinements.

Therin refused her assistance, preferring to drive her insane with his hands and mouth. He left no part of her untouched, raking his nose over and under her breasts. He paid extra attention to the dark firm nipples and inhaled her scent when his nose dipped into her belly-button. When she’d orgasmed twice, and believed she could stand no more, he proved her wrong.

Jerkily, he came out of the denims, grabbing a pack of condoms from one of the back pockets before he cast them aside.

Therin pressed a packet into her palm and indulged in more kissing and caressing.

It was no easy task, considering his every brush to her skin had her aching and moaning open-mouthed into the air. She emerged victorious, however. Once protection was in its place, she guided him inside her. A trembling sound filtered past her lips when he thrust long and deep.

No thoughts of going slow occurred to either of them. The room was illuminated by the falling snow and by the robust sounds of their impassioned voices.

“This is incredible.” Therin admitted to the beauty beyond the tall paned windows in Kianti’s bedroom. It was much later and they lay cuddled there watching the snow continue its descent. His arms tightened about her and he hid his face in her hair to inhale the fragrance.

“I don’t see how they can leave you out here alone, though,” he murmured.

“Remember the neighbors I told you about?” Kianti’s voice sounded slow and sleepy as she savored her contentment. “It was the only way I could convince the guys to give me time out here.”

“Still…”

“Therin, I’m pretty sure the guys have already been aggravating Wren and Vern like crazy—asking if they can see any lights burning over here and crap like that.”

Therin couldn’t help but give in to laughter.

“I don’t know what all they can see two miles up the road anyway but…” She yawned.

“Two miles.” Therin tensed.

“They’re the best neighbors anyone could ask for.” She nudged his abs with her elbow and smiled. “Wren’s a nurse and Vern’s a veterinarian. I’d say that covers me on the healthcare end, wouldn’t you?”

He gathered her closer. “What do you do out here?” His voice vibrated against the back of her neck.

She laughed. “Therin, I’m not on the moon! We do the same things as everyone else—shopping, movies… We just have to travel a bit farther to do it. Chicago’s not far, then there’s Winnipeg.”
