He pressed into her in a series of long, gliding strokes, his strong body lifting her with each thrust. She rocked to meet him, surprised by how easy and natural it felt. For so long she’d been afraid of this. But in Royal’s arms, with him buried deep inside her, she felt only incredible happiness.

She leaned over him, wriggling to increase the contact between their bodies. He clamped his hands around her waist, holding her still.

“What are you doing?” she yelped. “That felt wonderful.”

“I want you to feel even more wonderful. Sit up, love. Put your hands behind you and lean back.”

Frustrated by the interruption, she grumbled, which made him chuckle. But when she shifted, following his murmured guidance, she understood. The new position opened her up even more, and he slid in another inch. Now, it felt like he was touching the deepest part of her.

“Good Lord,” she whispered.

His smile was wicked. “You should always listen to your husband, Mrs. Kendrick.”

“I will take it under advisement, Mr. Kendrick.”

When he started thrusting again, she arched her back with a moan. Royal wedged a hand between their bodies, and his fingertips found her throbbing bud.

“Oh, oh,” she gasped as fire shot through her.

He stroked her inside and out, his body hot and hard beneath her. Desperately, Ainsley rocked against him, straining for the release that danced just out of reach.

“That’s it, my beautiful lass. You’re almost there.”

His hands roamed over her curves, tangling in the fabric of her nightgown. His erection touched her deep inside, in her most intimate part, and yet there was still a barrier between them. Suddenly, Ainsley knew she wanted that gone, too. She wanted nothing between them but their bodies, their hearts, and their love.

She batted Royal’s hands away before grabbing the hem of her nightgown and whipping it over her head. She tossed it to the floor, then boldly met his gaze.

For a moment, he looked stunned. Then his hands came back to her body, settling on her hipbones with careful reverence.

“You are the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen,” he whispered in a voice choked with emotion.

“Take off your smalls,” she ordered.

His grimace was slight. “I don’t think you want—”

“I don’t care about your scar, Royal. I don’t want anything between us.”

He gave a tight nod.

She lifted up, breathing a small sigh of regret as he slipped out of her. She’d beensoclose, and it had been better than anything she’d ever felt. But it didn’t matter. She needed all of him.

Carefully, he helped her shift onto her back. He stripped off his smalls, dropped them to the floor, and then turned to her, magnificently naked. She stroked her fingers over his scarred thigh, trailing her hand up to his twitching erection.

“My beautiful warrior,” she whispered.

He took her hand and pressed it flat over his heart. “Your warrior, my darling. I will always protect you.”

She smiled mistily up at him. “I know.”

Then she opened her arms, silently encouraging him to come to her.

Royal eased between her spread legs, slowly parting her flesh and slipping deep inside. As he started to move, Ainsley wrapped herself around him, burrowing her face into his neck, wanting to hold him forever.

His strokes came long and hard, his thick length rubbing her with delicious friction. Once more her passion spiraled, building to even greater heights. Now that there were no barriers between them, nothing to keep them apart, joy shimmered like the most beautiful star, close enough to touch.

When Ainsley’s body trembled on the edge of climax, Royal slid a hand beneath her bottom and tilted her up. He stroked one more time, going impossibly deep.

She clutched his broad shoulders, crying out. Fire raced through her veins, dissolving the last stubborn shards of ice that had gripped her soul for so long. In Royal’s arms, she felt free again. She felt loved.
