Page 51 of The Rancher's Jilted Bride

The bed dipped, and her heart threatened to leap out of her chest. Hale finally had her under him, and every naked inch of his powerful body was pressed against hers.

"H-Hale..."

His name slipped out in a whimper.

And then she was crying incoherently as his fingers dipped between her legs and straight into the moist sweetness of her core.

"You're so wet, baby," he said hoarsely.

"Yes,"she sobbed out.

"Can I—-"

Her arms wrapped around his neck. "P-Please—-"

The rest of her words turned into a moan.

Because he was already inside her.

Claiming what was his in one smooth stroke.

And then he was moving—-

Oh, Hale.

Her nails dug into the muscles of his shoulders.

So, so good.

That she couldn't help clawing his back.

"Yes,"he rasped out.

Because her body was arching helplessly under his, her hips buckling as she strove to meet every deep, furious thrust of his body.

"Come for me, baby..."

She could only cry out as shudders of pleasure rocked her body, and when she heard him grit her name out as he, too, started to come—-

Oh, Hale.

It was the most beautiful thing in the world, to finally have their bodies joined as one, and to know...

This was the way their love would someday bear fruit.

MICAH FELT LIKE PUKINGthe next day when the newlyweds came down to join them for breakfast. They were holding hands like stupid teenagers, and they were even smiling into each other's eyes, also like stupid teenagers.

"Just go back to your room, will you?"

Hale, being the sourpuss that he was, immediately scowled at her.

Heaven, on the other hand...

Micah seriously thought she was about to be sick when the other woman threw her arms around her.

"You can't fool me now," Heaven said brightly. "So please stop pretending to be the B-word."

"TheB-word?" Micah echoed in disgust. "Why can't you just say b—-" She stopped speaking when she caught sight of Rush and Hale, both of whom were standing behind Heaven, and were now staring at her in a way that only older brothers could.
