Page 30 of The Orc's Stolen Shepherdess

Fades, how was it that just hearing himwhispercould make my body melt like this?

“You can still say no, sunshine,” he said, and my toes curled. “I can still take you back to your crook. To your father. To your high walls, where you’ll be safe from all predators. Even me.”

My breath hitched at the sharp hint of worry that darkened his tone. I reached around his neck, gathering his cropped hair in my hands as I held him. Our noses were almost touching as I murmured, “I’m not goinganywhere, Caivid. You’re the one who’s supposed to keep me safe now.”

His exhale was laced with pure relief, and then he chuckled. The warm sound tipped me on my axis and lit a fire in me until Iburned.

“Then I will, sunshine, and I’ll protect and please you so that you’ll never want for any other protector for as long as you live.”

My breath caught in my throat. That should be too much, shouldn’t it? I’d just met him earlier that day. He was basically a stranger.

But as I took his hand in mine and rubbed my finger over his knuckles, I looked into his glowing green eyes, and I couldn’t help but think that this was where I was meant to be. Right here. With him.

I turned and crawled into the shelter, pulling him along behind me. The inside was so dark I couldn’t see a thing, but I trusted Caivid would tell me if he saw a threat. I found the blankets near the back and laid them out on the packed dirt floor. The warmth theyprovided was decent, but it was nothing compared to the heat Caivid brought with him as he crawled inside.

“There’s a door made of moss there on the side.” My voice was shaky. “Keeps the heat in.”

“Good,” he murmured. “The last thing I want is for you to get cold.”

I doubted anything could make me chilled at this point. My pussy pulsed with heat.

He placed the door over the opening and all the light from the moon and stars was cut off completely. I could only see the glowing of his eyes now. He crawled toward me.

I reached out and stroked down his bare chest, outlining each of his abs.

He sucked in a breath. I could feel him trembling under my fingertips, and I didn’t think it had anything to do with the chilly ground. My mind reeled thinking about such a powerful male bending to my touch.

I leaned in to kiss him, and instead, he flopped down next to me. I only had time to blink with surprise before he gripped my hips and pulled me on top of him. My legs straddled his torso and my hands rested on his bare chest.

“The ground is too cold for you,” he murmured in the darkness and my heart skipped a beat.

Wool and wails! I could feel every trembling breath he took between my legs. My pussy clenched. I wanted to get closer to him, neededto get closer.

And my dress was getting in the way of that.

“I’m going to take this off.” I adjusted so I could start unbuttoning my dress.

His eyes went huge and his breath came out shaky.

Fades, he had a right to be shocked. I’d never been so wanton in my entire life. I’d had a few men in the past, but mostly because they pursued and I was curious. They’d always taken the lead.

I got the front of my thick, woolen gown open. The air was chilly on my overheated skin. My underdress was a thin cotton that did nothing to hide my body. The way Caivid’s eyes fixed on me with such longing made me squirm.

He hissed and gripped my hips tight to stop me. I could feel the swell of his cock, already hard, against my ass.

How big was he? Should I worry about it?

“Fuck, Susara.” His fingers stroked the curve of my hips. “You’re so gorgeous you make ithard tobreathe.”

I chuckled. “You sure that isn’t because I’m sitting on your stomach.” I shifted my hips, purposefully moving back to rub his cock.

He let out a groan and his hold on my hips became so tight it was almost painful. “Careful, woman.”

My brows pinched. “I thought that was where we were going?”

He exhaled slowly as if trying to get his bearings.

“I’m going to use my tongue onyou, Susara.” He growled low and shifted me further up his body. I let out a yip as he had me straddle his chest, far away from his jutting cock. “We aren’t going to do anything withme.”
