God, he was so big. The way he stretched me felt so fucking good, but it also hurt me a little bit.

Rune could tell. He froze right away.

“Is it painful?” he whispered against my lips.

I nodded. “I think I need a moment to adjust.”

He squeezed his eyes shut and kissed me gently. “I’m sorry, Wildcat. I lost control.”

“It’s okay. I just need a moment, that’s all.”

“Do you want me to move away?”

“No!” I said, way too fast, genuinely panicked that he would. “No, please don’t. You feel so good.”

And the pain was already starting to fade away.

With a growl, Rune wrapped an arm around my waist and gripped my ass. “You’re so fucking tight, I’m going to lose my mind.”

“Don’t you dare come,” I said, and my muscles squeezed instinctively at the thought of him coming.

Like that, I felt all of his length inside me, and it was fucking delicious.

Rune moaned and dug his fingers in my ass harder. “Don’t do that, Wildcat. Don’t squeeze me like that.”

I tried to say something, but all I was able to get out of my lips was a moan. He felt really,reallygood inside me—how is this even possible?!

“Do you have any idea how you feel to me?” he whispered.

“I can guess,” I said because I knew howhefelt tome.

“Fuck, it’s so easy to forget.” He leaned his head down to kiss my shoulder, then the side of my neck.

“Then let’s forget.” I pressed my lips just below his earlobe and feltthe shivers that erupted down his back clearly against my hands.

“Forget your world and mine,” Rune said, stretching his neck to the side so I could plant kisses all over it. God, he tasted just as good as he felt. “Forgeteverything.”

“Everything.” That sounded like a dream come true—and exactly what we both needed right now.

As I kissed him, I began to move, slowly at first, just to see if the pain came back. It didn’t—on the contrary. He was so deep inside me, so thick that the pleasure erupted in me like a fucking volcano. I cried out again, held on to him tightly and bit the side of his neck.

Rune didn’t complain, didn’t move a single inch as I pushed myself a little farther away, then back down on his cock again. If there was any more pain left, I didn’t feel it. I could move faster, holding onto him with my limbs and my teeth while Rune moaned, never moving an inch, giving me time to find my rhythm.

And, by God, I did. My eyes were closed, and I moved on him faster by the second, my attention on where we connected, how easily he slid in and out of me each new time, howsexythe water and our skin sounded when my thighs slapped onto his pelvis.

Then Rune growled, fisted my ass and pulled me to him until he was buried inside me to the base again.

He stopped me from moving for a good moment, then whispered, “Does it hurt?”

“No,” I breathed. “Not at all.”

Slowly, he leaned his head back to look at me with a wicked grin. “My turn.”

All of a sudden he grabbed me, pulled me out of the water and sat me on the ground, right there between the bushes. He climbed out of the lake, too, and the bird still flew over us, just as bright, so I saw all of his naked glory. His shorts weren’t on him, and while I dragged myself back to give him more space, he stalked toward me on all fours, watching me like a damn predator.

My lady parts fucking adored that. My pussy squeezed so hard I thought I might come even before he put me against the ground and kneeled between my legs. Grabbed the backs of my knees and spread them as wide as they’d go. Pushed my wet dress up to my stomach and looked down at me as he touched me, gripped my flesh, digging his fingers in my skin.

I wasn’t embarrassed. On the contrary—something about being spread wide open for Rune. Something about the fire in his eyes as he looked at me, then slowly lowered down and kissed my knee.
