Chapter 24

Jo woke up early in the morning, as was her custom. And that was the only thing that felt routine about her day.

This wasn’t the first day she had woken up in Richard’s bed. But the last two days and nights had blended together as they spent most of it in his chamber. They didn’t even leave the room for meals, preferring to feast inside so they wouldn’t need to dress.

They’d picked a Saturday for their wedding day exactly for that purpose. So that they could spend two days enjoying each other’s company and not worrying about anything.

But Monday came and with it all the worries. She whimpered and burrowed farther into the bed.

A hand snaked around her and then Richard pulled her closer to his chest. His hand stroked her breasts as his cock pressed against her buttocks.

“Not now, darling,” she mumbled. “I need to get to the theater.”

“Just a quick one,” he whispered against her shoulder and then kissed her there, while his cock moved to prod at her center.

“I shall be late,” she moaned as she widened her legs to let him in.

He pushed his length against her feminine lips, grinding himself against her, enticing her to yield to him.

As if he needed to.

The moment his cock touched her skin, she was already wet and ready for him. There was no need for seduction. She was already seduced.

Richard’s hand moved lower to the juncture between her legs and started playing with her swollen nub as he entered her in one swift thrust. He kept rocking against her, his wicked fingers swirling around her nub.

Jo bit on her knuckles, but he placed his lips against her ear and whispered, “I want to hear you scream.”

His thrusts became more forceful, his finger more insistent, his lips played with her earlobe, then moved on to her neck.

She couldn’t contain it any longer. Her passion spilled out in a fiery cry as she came, her muscles contracting, spasming around his hard cock.

Richard hastened his pace and, a few moments later, pulled out with a growl, spilling his seed against her buttocks.

He rolled off the bed and came back with a towel. After he cleaned her up, she turned to him with a grin. “Armor?”

He looked forlornly at the used animal-skin sheathes by the bed. “They need washing. Or else I need to procure about twenty more. Apparently, three is not enough for a night of pleasure.”

Jo hid a smile. “And morning.”

She scrambled off the bed and went to take her morning ablutions. She came out of Richard’s dressing room in one of his shirtsleeves. She hadn’t even unpacked her clothing yet. Had someone unpacked for her? She had a slew of servants now. But she hadn’t even been to her room, or anywhere really, except for Richard’s bedchamber since she arrived.

“So, do you want to break your fast here, or finally see the breakfast room and the rest of the house?” Richard asked.

Jo smiled, walked up to her half-clad husband, and ran her hands up his chest before kissing his neck.Husband. She liked the sound of that.

“I am afraid I can’t eat with you today,” she said, and he frowned at her.

“Why not?”

“I am already late for rehearsals.”

Richard groaned and nuzzled her shoulder. “Is that how it’s going to be?”

Jo chuckled. “You married a working actress, what did you expect?”

He looked at her, his mouth turned down in a pout. “A honeymoon, at least.”

“I am sorry, my lord,” she said softly. “Not yet.”
