“Jonan,” Nora awoke with his name on her lips. She glanced out the window to see how much time had passed. It was dark outside.
Oh Lord… I have overslept!She scolded herself.
It was then that she noticed Jonan's large figure standing by the edge of the bed.
“I hope I didnae startle ye. I didnae ken whether to wake ye or nae.” he said calmly. “I can start a fire,” he suggested.
“Thank you,” she said before remembering there was no wood in the small fireplace before she fell asleep.
I have waited for him all day. There is little time to fetch wood. “You need not fetch wood. We can just sit and—”
“I fetched wood after tastingyer delectable supper.”
He fetched wood by himself for me. Though it was a simple task, she was grateful.
“Thank you,” she said again.
The fire crackled, and she observed Jonan's handsome smile. He stood up and approached her, removing his shirt as he approached her bed.
“You are a different type of woman,” he said, kissing the back of her hand. “You are kind.”
Nora felt goosebumps wash over her flesh as he said those wordsso close to her. She desired to kiss him.
His hand crept up her thigh and into her slumbering chemise. Herbody shuddered as his fingers grazed her skin and moved closer to her heat.
His breathwhirled around her ears and fell like cold snowflakes onto her skin. That made her shiver with delight. She wanted more.
His hand. Nora was aware of his fingers on her thigh, unsure if she was ready, but he did not go any further.
“Nae until ye ask it of me,” he whispered in her ear.
"I wanted to get back to yeas soon as I could," he said quietly.
Nora expected him to kiss her then, but he didn't. His gaze was fixed on hers. He wanted her to know that he had been thinking about her all day; thathe was telling the truth.
"I waited for you until I fell asleep," sheadmitted.
Then he lowered his gaze from her eyes to her lips. "I couldnae help but think of yer lips," he said, gently rubbing his thumb over them.
He hungers for me as I do.
She closed her eyes, anticipating his lips, but he drew back. Instead, helowered his head and placed his mouth beneath her belly, then lifted one of her legs onto his shoulder, placing himself between her thighs.
Her thoughts raced as she wonderedwhat he intended to do.
Jonan traced soft kisses down her calf while holding her leg up against his shoulder. Nora closed her eyes and let her body fall into hiscapable hands. Then, his lips glided reluctantly off her calf before grazing the back of her knee.
“There is much I could teach ye about yer body,” Jonan whispered in her ear.
His words made her mouth dry. There was no doubt in his eyes that he could make her feel evenmore. He kissed her lips, and Nora grabbed his hand, pulling him closer ashe lowered her back onto the bed.
His hand wrapped around her slender waist, drawing her closer to his warm body. As he stared at her, the light from the fireplace cast a shadow on his face, giving him a softer appearance.
He is beautiful.
“Ye are beautiful,” he said gently and returned his lips to hers.
Nora cravedhis body. She drew his hand fromunder her dress to touch her breasts. Her nipples had been aching since he left her that morning. They desired the sensation of histender hands. His hand brushed against her bosom before he squeezed it gently.
