“We shall rectify that. You, my wife, learned to love my touch, the hardness of my cock, the power of my thrusts, and the pleasure I bring you.” He lowered me onto the mink, letting butterflies and petals burst into the air as he loomed over my naked body, his lips never straying far from mine. “And you will learn to love me.”

I shook my head, yet our mouths refused to part, caught in a glorious kiss of stuttering breaths. “Not until you open your gates and rot the dead.”

“Love comes unbidden and has no care for precautions, turning us into fools for liars and monsters.” His swollen cock pressed against my heated center, telling me his breeches had vanished, but his hips made no further advance. “That much, I learned of love.”

So he likely knew that Njala had never loved him, which ached me somehow. “Neither is it a decision.”

“No, it is not. Love comes into existence between the flutters of a heart and grows awash in the heat at one’s core.” He cupped my face as our foreheads drifted together, submerging me in the scent of ash sprinkled over snow. “I dare you to look at me and deny how your heart beats faster at the undivided attention I give you.”

Me and no other, making me feel like a woman desired, worthy of this devotion he promised. “I’m not denying it.”

The ground trembled; it ran up along the trunks of the birch trees, letting the branches quiver until small twigs rained down. One caught in Enosh’s hair, which I fumbled from his black strands, only to stare at it in mute shock. Perhaps the god held my weak heart trapped in this moment of intimacy, but his was not as unaffected as he had claimed.

My gaze went from the twig to meet his. “Return to your duty.”

A smile curved his lips, quickly hidden beneath a kiss he pressed to my collarbone, and more toward my breast from there. His tongue trailed a circle around my nipple, rousing the bud into a hard pebble while he kneaded the heating flesh of both. My breathing quickened when his tongue trailed down along my belly. His hands splayed open my thighs, exposing me so fully out here in the forest, but only until his mouth covered the juncture between them in a warm caress of lips.

Arching my spine, I braced my heels against the bone, trying to escape the sudden onslaught of sensation only to shift toward it. His tongue stroked along my folds, lapped at my entrance, and circled my nymph, each movement a smooth answer to my body’s demand. I shifted away, and he eased the pressure. I spread my legs wider, and he buried his tongue ferociously inside my cunt.

I gave in to it all, allowing myself to succumb to the delirium of pleasure that was my husband’s sinful mouth. Glorious shivers wracked my body as his tongue dipped inside, only to draw back and play with the soft, sensitive edges. When my breathing turned to panting, his attention shifted to my nymph, where he gingerly lapped and suckled until a torrential wave of heat flooded my sex.

“Beautiful,” he mumbled against my cunt as he kissed me there until my breaths lengthened and slowed. Then he climbed between my legs, cupped my cheek, and brought my gaze to his. “Look at me.”

His eyes remained locked on mine as he reached between us, where his cock throbbed against my inner thigh. He placed the bulbous crown at my slickened hole, and then…

Nothing.

Instead of thrusting inside, he lowered his forehead to mine. He brushed his mouth over my cheek, allowing a moment between us not dominated by lust or overshadowed by my urge to escape it.

I was a willing captive.

He was a loving god.

Together, we were a man and a woman, making love in the forest, unconcerned with the snapping of nearby twigs or the passing of time as the sun peeked through the thinning forest canopy.

I clasped my legs around his waist, inviting him with a tug.Commencing the act.“Return to your duty.”

“Ah, and ride the lands while my family awaits me at home.” He slowly stroked inside me, adopting an unhurried pace void of his usual urgency. “My mortal wife shall sit on a throne of the dead, motifs of trees and birds and meadows carved into its bone. Is that what you wish?”

I moaned at the warm pressure as he worked himself deeper. “Yes.”

“And there, on your lap, shall sit our son or daughter, black of hair with eyes the color of the sea between the Kilafa mountains.” He nudged his pelvis tightly against mine, letting us share in a shudder that pebbled our skin. “And I shall embrace them, and kiss them, and take them into my arms. Yes?”

I swallowed past a constriction in my throat, only for it to form a knot of warmth beneath my sternum. “Yes.”

“Then, I shall rock our child and place it to sleep between us on a bed of bone while my beautiful, kind, and stubborn wife looks upon me with such ardor, eternity will seem like a blessing. Mmm… your heart, little one.” He pressed his hand against the valley between my breasts, letting the organ pound against the flat of his palm. “Right here is where it flutters, causing such warmth between the rapid flow of blood at everything I may lay by your feet… everything I could give you.” A kiss to my temple before he whispered, “If only you would love me.”

A task that seemed so easy as he let his words fill the void at my core, driving out this sad loneliness we shared. “If only you would treat me right.”

He drew his hips back and thrust again, working my body to a higher ledge of pleasure with the measured stroke. “Have I not shown you my goodwill since we gave our vows?”

Yes, but Enosh was unpredictable in his godly whims—a constant sway between delicate and domineering. “You hurt me many times.”

“Mm-hmm, yes, I hurt you.” He once more gripped my collar, exposing the sensitive skin above it, and laid siege to it with his teeth until it burned and set me ablaze. “And I would hurt you again. I would break your bones, sour your flesh, meld your skin to mine. I would do all that and worse, if only to have you for eternity. That, Ada, is how much I desire you.”

The sound of my name was my undoing.

Anchoring my arm around his neck, I lifted my lips to his, letting them slam together with such ferociousness, they trembled on impact—as did the ground. Twigs snapped, birds took flight with rapid wingbeats, and somewhere, pinecones must have thudded to the ground. Acrk-crk-ckrbrought my attention to the hairline cracks veining along the backrest of the daybed.
