Suddenly he jerked forward, pushing so deep into her that it scared her a little. There was a pin prick and some pain but nowhere near as severe as she’d been expecting. She breathed out and he pushed up with his hands so that he could look into her face, his own even more flushed. “Are you all right?”
She nodded jerkily, hanging onto him for dear life. Then he began to move and she forgot to breathe.
With every thrust, he seemed to set off a domino of aftershocks, moving through her body in waves until she could feel him at the tips of her fingers and toes. She could not help the loud moans that emanated from her mouth or the way her body undulated, urging him onward, clamping around him to hold him deeper inside of her.
It was unlike anything she’d ever experienced before.
And then the sensations she was feeling began to build, growing bigger and wider in a bubble that threatened to engulf her—she felt as if she was losing her mind.
“Bertram!” it was a plea for rescue, an inquiry as to what was happening to her, as well as an expression of wonder.
“Let go,” he whispered, hastening his pace. She did not know what he meant but released her shoulders and let herself lie back, allowing him to plunder her at will. Her moans grew louder as the bubble expanded rapidly before it burst into a kaleidoscope of ecstasy, whiting her vision and making every muscle in her body tense and relax in rhythmic completion.
Her back arched and she screamed, feeling her body spurt liquid, her inner muscles holding onto Bertram so very tight. He began to fill her with liquid, with his own shout as her body milked him of every drop.
She collapsed backward onto the bed, eyes closed, breathing hard as he slipped to the side and lay down beside her, his hand possessively over her belly. They caught their breath, Letty marveling at the sheer unexpectedness of their joining.
“If I’d known that it was like that, I might have indulged a lot sooner,” she murmured.
Bertram laughed. “Well, not to blow my own horn, but it’s not always that phenomenal.”
She turned to him, smiling. “Oh? So is it just you and me then?”
He huffed in amusement. “No. But many times…” he looked away towards the window, “the man takes no care for anything but his own pleasure.”
She ran a playful finger up his arm. “But you would never do such a thing.”
“Such confidence in me.”
“I know you well, Your Grace.”
His eyes met hers as he grinned. “Do you now?”
“I do. You are very circumspect and a considerate man. You take your gentlemanly duties too seriously to be selfish about giving pleasure.”
“I’m happy you think so. Now perhaps we can get some rest before seeing what’s to eat?”
She nodded. “It’s been an exciting day.”
He pulled her closer to him, turning her around so that her back was flush against his chest as his arm held her securely in place. Kissing behind her ear, he bid her a good night. She closed her eyes, still smiling.

He didn’t know what had woken him up but suddenly he was alert. He sat up, eyes on the door. The room was pitch black, with not even the moon to light it up. He slid out of bed and picked up his housecoat, easing it on before finding his slippers by feeling around with his feet. As quietly as possible he made his way to the door.
“Bertram?” Letty’s whispered question stopped him short.
“Hush,” he whispered back. “I think someone is here.”
He heard the bedclothes rustling and then she was by his side, her front plastered to his back. He was glad to feel the thin cotton of her gown and did not try to stop her following as he crept to the door. He turned the knob slowly, pausing to listen.
There was another scraping sound.
There it is.
Suddenly the door was pushed backward into him and they were surrounded by several people. Bertram kept hold of Letty, trying to put himself between her and the dark shapes. She did not cry out, much to his relief, and he snatched up a poker and wielded it like a weapon.
“Who are you? Get back!”
He could feel the rustling of their movements but did not know how many of them there were. Suddenly there was a loud thud and everything went black. He knew no more.
