But he had a problem. He had no idea if it was because of her incredible tightness or that he was her first, but he knew instinctively that he would not last long. She completely sheathed him, his cock throbbing madly as the warmth and moistness of her flesh played havoc with his entire nervous system.

He started to move then, slowly at first, giving her time to get accustomed to the strangeness of having a man inside her and then building up quickly as she started to move with him, giving thrust for thrust, her slender curves molding to his in the age-old mating ritual.

His body shuddered, and his heart was beating so hard and fast it was drowning out everything else. Her hands came around his neck, her fingers tangling with the thick strands of his hair as she returned the kiss with a passion that had him going mad.

Kendra moved her body in tune with his; the pain she had experienced at the beginning was now only a distant memory to be replaced by a pleasure so exquisite she could hardly stand it. The pressure started and increased steadily in the pit of her and seemed to take over until she was yearning for something just out of reach.

But sensing that she was ready, he increased the pace, driving into her with long, steady strokes until he felt her body reaching toward his, her fingers digging into his shoulders and his back. Dragging his lips from hers so that he could offer her encouragement, he urged her on.

“Let go.” He whispered against her mouth, one hand reaching down to cup her hip so that she was practically forged against his body. “Let go, baby.” he urged huskily. “That’s it.” His fingers tightened on her flesh when she arched against him, her fingers biting into his flesh. “That’s it.”

Her body arched, her head drifting back as the violent climax slammed into her with a force that had her crying out in shock.

“I can’t.” She cried into his neck.

“You can.” He drove into her, taking her from the brink until she was trembling, destroyed by a pleasure she had never dared dream of.

She had barely drifted down to earth before he was shuddering on top of her. With one last powerful thrust, he drove into her and shot his load inside her. Seizing her lips again, he kissed her roughly as the climax continued to take hold of him.

As soon as he was able, he shifted, afraid that he was crushing her, and brought her almost on top of him, his body still intimately joined to hers.

His heart was still thundering inside his chest, his body still shaking from the aftermath of the most incredibly powerful climax he had ever experienced. Running his hands up and down her back slowly, he stared at the intricate pattern of the ceiling, his thoughts in disarray.

He was unwilling to delve into what was happening between them, but soon, he would have to do just that. He had turned the farce into a real marriage by the simple or not-so-simple act of consummating it, and it had been done without him using anything.

Kendra had no idea what to say or how to act. Her face was buried on his chest, her body still vibrating. He had gone from being a man she despised to one she had conflicting feelings for, and she had no idea what to do about it—about him.

“Tired?” His deep voice rumbled against her cheek.

“No. Yes.”

His chuckle teased her cheek. “Which is it?”

“No, I think.”

Dipping his head down, he studied the top of hers, the short, glossy hair lying close to her scalp. Tipping her chin up, he searched her face quizzically. “That was unexpected.”

“It was.” She agreed, looking anywhere but in his eyes. “I suppose you should go to your room.”

“Is that what you want?” He asked her quietly, ultimately putting her on the spot.

“I don’t know.” She tried to twist her chin away, but he held fast.

“I would like to stay if that’s okay with you.”

“I suppose.”

A smile touched his sensuous lips. “Not a very enthusiastic response, but it will keep.”

“Can you stop looking at me like that?”

“Like what?” His voice had dropped, his silver eyes turning hooded as he stared at her.

“You know, like what.”

“Like I am about to make love to you again?” he shifted swiftly, his body covering hers. He laughed softly at the startled look on her exquisite face.
