He felt her response. The shiver of anticipation. And when he lowered his mouth to hers, she arched up to meet him.
As Ash’s lips came down on hers, Lily forgot everything else. She let go of the questions that had been swirling in her mind, the worries about others’ intentions, and her fears surrounding herself.
The way this man felt, his touch, silenced all of her questions.
She wrapped her arms about his neck as he slanted her lips open, his tongue probing hers in a way that made her entire body shiver with desire. Need like she’d never known coursed through her, making the place between her legs throb and pulse.
As if he sensed her ache, he slid his hand down her body, cupping first her breast, his thumb skimming over the already stiff nipple. She cried out, more pleasure radiating from the spot. Ash hadn’t bothered to replace his shirt and she began exploring too, running her hands down his back, and then skirting his waist, up his abdomen.
The muscles rippled under her fingers, enhancing her own excitement, and when she reached his nipple, she skimmed her fingertip over the flesh just as he’d done to her. They both gasped as his skin tightened in response.
Touching him this way made her feel powerful, and she repeated the touch, loving his reaction nearly as much as she enjoyed her pleasure.
For the first time in her life, she understood why women succumbed to a man’s seduction.
His hand slid lower, skimming the flat of her belly and then trailing over her hip. That sensitive place between her legs pulsed with his hand so nearby. As if to answer her call, Ash cupped her mound, his fingers applying pressure to the ache in the most delightful way. Her parts were still covered by her chemise, but that didn’t stop her body from responding, arching up to meet the touch.
He smiled against her lips. “Feel good?”
“Yes,” she gasped, raking her hands back up to his shoulders. She wanted more. But how to ask for it?
He moved his hand away and she whimpered in protest, her fingers digging even further into his skin.
He smiled against her lips as he slowly lowered his weight on top of her. The feel of his chest against hers made her cry out, his weight a comfort she’d never imagined. But even better, his hips pressed into hers, the hard ridge in his breeches applied pressure just where she needed it most.
Her legs naturally spread as far as her chemise would allow. He settled deeper between them and they both moaned into each other’s mouths.
She held him tight, their mouths joined as their hips moved together. Lily broke away, looking into his eyes while wave after wave of building pleasure rocked through her. “This isn’t coupling?”
He blinked, his hips slowing. “No, love. This isn’t that.”
“What is it, then?”
He wrapped one arm under her back, lifting her closer. “It’s just touching. We can both experience our finish, but I have to take your maidenhead and plant my seed inside you to risk a child.”
That only led to more questions. “Then why don’t people just do this if they’re not wed?”
He chuckled. “Because the other feels even better.”
“Better?” Her eyes widened as he grinned wolfishly down at her.
“Don’t worry. This will be enough for both of us for tonight.”
Was there a promise in those words, of other times, other acts?
Ash slid the chemise higher, allowing her legs to spread wider, rocking against her, the pressure better, fuller. Lily gasped, tugging him close as a wave of pleasure threatened to pull her under, to overwhelm her.
The hand under her back slid lower, grasping her buttocks and pressing their hips so close together that suddenly her desire broke apart, filling her with a beautiful sort of pleasure that left her gasping for air as she clung to Ash’s neck.
In response he made a rumbling groan, his body also spasming as well before he collapsed on top of her.
“Ash?” she murmured close to his ear, wrapping her arms tighter about him. Her insides had turned to jelly, allowing her emotions so close to the surface she could hardly hold them in.
“Yes, love?”
“Being together like this changes things, doesn’t it?” The words trembled out of her. Had she weakened her position? She already wanted to be with him all the time. How could she need this man any more? But now that they’d done this…
Before, she’d thought she might be able to leave. Continue on with her life. But now…
