“I should have arrested him for going completely rogue. He almost killed Neely and Stalker, plus he did kill an eastern overlord.”
“But you didn’t. How come?”
“His wife needed him. She didn’t deserve to be punished for what he did. I told Stalker, but he agreed the female needed Colton more than Stalker needed revenge.” Max explained.
“I think that was a good decision,” Falyn agreed. “I’m done out here, now. Let’s get the milk in the pasteurizer and go into the house.”
“We can have dinner, and you can welcome me home,” he said with a sexy smirk, nuzzling her neck.
“I knew you’d see it my way.” She giggled. “But I don’t know what we’re going to eat. I couldn’t fire up the stove with holes in the pipe.
“Exactly why I brought dinner from the mess hall. It will stay warm until we’re ready to eat.”
Chapter Twenty-Two
Max initiated another smoldering kiss once the milk was set to pasteurize. He ended it, carrying Falyn into the house with her wrapped around him. By then, the scent of her arousal had made him hard as a rock.
Getting her naked was even quicker than usual because she wore a standard issue khaki t-shirt and black cargo pants instead of handmade. The handmade cotton pants and tunics had ties and buttons, and haste could pop buttons off and rip seams.
Max shed his clothes in seconds, then went to work on Falyn’s. Pushing her cargo pants to the floor, he knelt in front of her after she toed off her new boots. That made him the perfect height to take one of her taut nipples into his mouth and suckle it while kneading her other breast and plucking that nipple with his fingers.
Falyn moaned, cradling his head and running her fingers through his short-cropped hair. As he moved to suck on her other nipple, he slid his hand between her leg, brushing her clit before he pushed a finger deep into her opening.
“Aah,” she moaned, holding his head to her breast. She murmured his name, and her knees nearly buckled when he pressed his thumb against her clit.
Max stopped what he was doing, scooping her up as he stood and laid her on the bed, climbing on with her. Laying over her, with a thick, muscular thigh between her legs, he nuzzled her neck, then drew his lips along her jawline and to her lips.
He slipped his tongue into her mouth as his lips settled over hers. She swirled her tongue around his in a sensual dance and stroked his back lovingly.
Max wanted everything from her, to kiss and caress her, to feast on her cream and fuck her long and hard until she screamed his name as she climaxed.
Falyn could feel his erection against her thigh as he moved between her legs. Her body throbbed with desire, and she would have been happy to take his cock then. Only it quickly became clear that Max was taking the full tour.
He worked his way down her body, paying homage to her breasts, kneading them with his hands and sucking each nipple until she squirmed beneath him.
“Oh, Max,” she crooned. “You make me feel so good.” He could make her forget her own name and the four thugs who terrorized her that day.
She murmured words of encouragement and made soft sounds of pleasure, caressing his head and shoulders as he moved lower on her belly. Then she felt his breath on her mons as he parted the dark curls, and she started to pant.
Drawing her knees up, Falyn spread her legs wide, giving Max full access. He drew his tongue up through her slit, lapping at her juices and eliciting heartfelt moans from her.
A wave of excruciating pleasure caused her to cry out when his lips settled over her sensitive clit. Max curled his arms around her thighs to hold her still while he worked his magic. Alternately licking and gently sucking, he was driving her mad with such intense pleasure to the verge of orgasm. Then he stopped.
“Omigod! Max, don’t stop,” she cried, ending with a whimper.
“Do you love me?”
“Oh, God, yes. Of course, I love you!”
“Will you marry me?”
“Huh? Aren’t we already?”
“I mean the way people used to with family and friends.”
“Ah, Max! Whatever you want! Please, I need to come…. I need. Argh!”
With her assent, he went back to flicking his tongue over her clit and alternately sucking it.
