Page 79 of Bound to a Wicked Duke

Madeleine blushed in response. “I very much doubt that.”

Percy shook his head. “Do not doubt it for a single moment. You steal the breath from my lungs. You rob the words from my mind. You rouse my body to excruciatingly painful need. You are beauty and love itself. You are Venus and Aphrodite in human form. You are the goddess of heart.”

“Percy,” she breathed, his words robbing her of all thought but for the need of his body upon hers. “Percy…”

Percy took off his jacket, untied his neck cloth, and pulled his shirt up over his head. Madeleine’s breath caught in her throat at the sight of his muscles rippling as he moved. He was pure masculinity. Everything about him screamed ‘male’. His eyes met hers as his hands went to his breeches. He held her eyes as he released the buttons and let the breeches fall to the floor. He stepped out of them and kicked them away.

Madeleine gasped at the sight of his erect member. It was larger than she had anticipated. She had seen Greco-Roman statuary and had expected something more along the lines of those men. Percival Hardy was significantly bigger in every way. She took a step back, unsure of herself. She had seen horses mating, but she had never thought a human man could come close to such virility.How did he contain that in his breeches?

“You look frightened,” he observed with concern.

“I am,” she whispered.

Percy gazed at her with loving compassion. “I swear that I will not hurt you, my love. Do you trust me?”

Madeleine nodded. “I do.”

“Do you love me?” he asked, smiling gently.

Madeleine nodded again, smiling in return. “I do.”

“That is all that we need.” He moved towards her slowly, as if he were concerned about scaring her further. This time, Madeleine did not move away. She allowed him to come to her. They stood in front of each other, naked and bare before each other’s eyes. Percy reached out and cupped her face with the palm of his hand. “You are perfect.”

“I am not perfect.” Madeleine shook her head in disagreement, but he stopped her.

“You are absolutely perfect in every way.”

He lowered his head to kiss her lips, tenderly at first, building in passion as he took her into his arms. The tips of her breasts brushed against his skin, causing shivers of delight to ripple through her. He deepened the kiss as if to savor every part of her mouth.

“Sweeter than honey,” he murmured as his lips lowered to nuzzle at her neck and throat. His tongue and teeth licked and nibbled their way down to her breasts. The hardened peaks of her nipples greeted him in joyous rapture as he lathed each one in turn, suckling each one into his mouth.

Madeleine gasped, her breath quickening as she threaded her fingers through his hair. She clung to her grip on his hair as he moved down her torso to the juncture of her legs. His tongue flicked out to caress her nether bud. Madeleine moaned, throwing her head back in pleasure. Growling possessively, hedelved deeper, taking the bud into his mouth and suckling it as he had done her nipples.

“Percy!” she cried out in lustful need. “I need you.” She gripped at him, pulling him as close to her as she could.

Rising up, he lifted her into his arms and carried her to the waiting bed. “You are mine now and forever,” he whispered as he laid her down. Starting at her feet, he kissed every part of her body, all the way up to her lips, until his naked form was hovering over her own. Every muscle in his body was tensed so as not to crush her with his weight. She could feel the hard length of his member against the inside of her leg. She looked up into his eyes and found nothing but love shining back at her.

“Always,” she whispered softly, reaching up to trace the side of his jaw with her fingertips.

Percy turned his head to kiss the inside of her wrist. “Are you ready?” he whispered, looking deep into her eyes.

Madeleine only hesitated for a brief moment. She was ready for this. She had loved Percival Hardy all of her life but had never been willing to admit it, even to herself. Now, she was his wife, and nothing but love stood between them. “I am ready.”

“I will be as gentle as I can,” he promised.

“I trust you,” she whispered, running her fingers down the length of his neck to his shoulders. She traced the muscles ofhis arms and chest, causing his nipples to harden. Smiling shyly, she ducked her head to flick one of them with her tongue as he had done to her. His hardened member jerked in reply against her leg, brushing against her nether regions and causing a fresh wave of feelings to course through her body.

“Madeleine,” Percy groaned as she moved her hips beneath him. “I am trying to go slow for your sake. Do not tempt me beyond what I can bear. I am but a man with a man’s willpower, not a god with infinite control.”

Madeleine smiled, pleased that she had such an effect on him. She liked that he desired her. It made her feel powerful and brave in a way that she had never felt before. Reaching out with her tongue, she flicked his nipple once more. His member jerked again, this time coming to rest against the folds of her most womanly places. She ran her hands over his shoulders and back, raising her hips in response to the pressure.

Unable to restrain himself, Percy moved his hips in response. His member moved to press against the entrance to her innermost heat. Claiming her lips with his own, his tongue dueled with hers as he thrust himself deep inside of her. A sharp pain caused her to cry out and dig her fingernails into his back. “Percy!”

“It will pass, my love. I promise.” True to his word, the pain did ease, and he began to move slowly inside of her.

The pain was quickly replaced by pleasure unlike anything that Madeleine had ever experienced before. She had thought thatPercy’s tongue and hands were the most enjoyable parts of his body. She had been wrong. The pressure inside her built higher and higher with every thrust. She wrapped her legs around his hips, driving him further, deeper inside of her.

“Madeleine,” Percy groaned as she moved beneath him. “Oh, my Madeleine.” Lowering his head, he suckled her nipples as he continued to move inside of her.
