The steady sway of the carriage as they moved was enough to be her undoing. Pleasure burst inside her with every rock. Neil’s hands tightened on her hips, holding her in place as he started to move slowly beneath her. When she could breathe again, shestarted to roll her hips to match his pace. If it weren’t for his hands guiding her, she might have melted.
This was what she had been missing all this time? Never again. She could do this forever.
“Oh, Neil—oh!”she gasped as they found a rhythm, rocking as one. She cupped the back of his neck, using it to keep herself upright.
Neil lowered his hand between them, the tips of his fingers drawing tight circles around her swollen nub until she started seeing stars.
“Let me hear ye. Ye feel so perfect around me,” he groaned.
There was something magical about knowing that she would be the only person to ever see this vulnerable side of him, and she loved it.
She tried to show it as much as she could as she righted herself and kissed him with everything she had, pouring her soul into his lips as she climbed closer and closer to her peak, the pleasure inside her reaching unspeakable heights that she had never been able to push herself to before.
“Neil—oh!” she cried, the sound strangled as her climax ripped through her.
Neil thrust harder and faster into her, his breath coming in short bursts as her walls rippled around him. She felt him climax, warm and deep inside her, as she tried her best to keep rocking her hips despite her growing exhaustion.
Neil rested his forehead against hers and pressed a soft kiss to her lips. So tender that her heart could have shattered as he pulled out of her and turned her sideways on his lap so that he could cradle her to his chest.

This was something that he could get used to.
Neil had never really given much thought to having another person in his bed. But last night, he couldn’t take his eyes off Ceana. Once again, he wanted to behead any man who laid his eyes on her. She was driving him crazy and she didn’t even know it. Until he invited her to their carriage. And she had been oh so willing.
She was finally his.
After he claimed her, he brought her home and carried her to his bedchambers. With his first wife, after their encounters, she always headed back to her rooms. It was always like that. He had never been opposed to the idea, but it had felt like more of a chore than anything else.
But with Ceana? It was the most natural thing in the world.
Her leg was thrown over his, her body was curled into his side, and she was using his arm as a pillow. Her hair was a mess all around them, and he was quite certain that she was drooling on his chest… and he didn’t care even one tiny bit.
The morning sunlight just started filtering through the window, making the room brighter. But, most importantly, it gave him a much better view of the woman in his arms. She looked so peaceful that he almost didn’t want to wake her. Almost. He tightened his grip on her, dipping his chin just enough to kiss her forehead.
Ceana hummed in her sleep and shifted against him, so he did it again. He kissed her forehead, her nose, and finally her lips. Her sleepy moan aroused him far more than it should have. His cock was already aching with need for her. She shifted her leg slowly, seeming to come to that realization. Slowly, she blinked her eyes open, then kissed him back.
Neil didn’t wait for her eyes to open fully before grabbing her leg and pulling her further over him so that her slight frame was lying on top of him. He couldn’t get over how responsive she was. Even half asleep and groggy, her body rolled against his. His hands found her hips and pushed her lower until he felt the heat of her sex over his cock.
Slowly, almost lazily, he pulled her close and then flipped her over, deepening their kiss as she wrapped her legs around his hips and her arms around his shoulders. Their bodies were a tangled mess of limbs, the blankets restricting their movements,but her perfect, soft body was underneath him and that was the only thing in the entire world that he needed right now.
He was a fool for waiting to do this.
“Neil, please,” Ceana moaned as he cupped her breast and started to kiss his way down her body. She would just have to be patient.
His lips trailed down her chest and closed over her nipple. He flicked his tongue against the stiff bud, and her breath hitched. It was like a little reward each and every time. He glanced up at her hungrily, his teeth scraping over the sensitive peak as she arched into him.
“Please!”
“Please what?” he asked, his hand moving to her other breast and massaging it.
She bucked her hips against his in answer.
He was fully planning on teasing her again when a knock sounded at the door.
Whoever it was, they must have a death wish if they meant to interrupt them.
Neil didn’t even have a chance to say as much before the knocking started up again, much more insistent this time.
