Chuckling, Dean rolled the strands of hair into a ball and flung it across the room. It landed in the smaller tub. “There.” He laughed and placed his other arm around her again. “It cannae hurt ye nae more.”
Sophia laughed, but she stopped when she realized that she was still clinging to him with her naked body. She suddenly took a deep breath and gazed into his eyes.
Dean was greatly surprised when she stayed where she was and made no attempt to move away. He became aware of their position with sudden clarity as his eyes stared into hers.
Her shapely legs were wrapped around his thigh, and her breasts were pressed to the side of his body. He was even more surprised when she leaned down and kissed him on the lips for a second.
She drew back and opened her eyes as if she couldn’t even believe what she had done.
His breathing quickened as he drew her closer to him and deepened the kiss, taking his time to search the innermost part of her warm mouth with his tongue as his fingers explored her body.
He slid his hands over her buttocks and squeezed when she let out a moan. Drawing back slightly, he looked into her eyes, which were clouded with desire.
She wants this as much as I do.
“Have ye really never been intimate with a man?” he asked her in a whisper.
“No.” She shook her head and placed her hands on his chest. “I never trusted any man.” She let her gaze fall to his chest before looking into his eyes again. “Until now.”
His heart skipped a beat as he drew her closer to him again and nipped her neck.
She moaned again and tangled her fingers in the length of his hair before he suddenly turned her around and pressed her back against his chest.
“Then yer goin’ to like this very much,” he said as he nibbled on her ear. He used one of his hands to cup her breast while massaging a path down her abdomen with the other.
She gasped slightly and parted her lips as he squeezed her supple breast and rubbed the inner part of her thigh with the palm of his hand.
He took his cue and nipped her neck again while gently pinching her nipple between his thumb and forefinger. Her breathing quickened when he placed his hand between her thighs and gently parted her legs.
“Dean…” she whimpered as he began to explore the most delicate folds of her body with his fingers.
“Aye?’’ he teased her and gently bit her ear.
Sophia brought her arm up and over her head as she tangled her fingers in his hair once again. Her body began to move with his fingers as they sought even deeper pleasures within the depths of her warmth.
Dean’s arousal was pressed against the small of her back, growing even bigger as her body moved against his.
“Do ye like that?” he whispered in her ear as she began to pant.
“Yes,” she breathed and whimpered as her head fell back on his shoulder, allowing him an open view of her breasts as he played with them and stroked her between her legs.
He picked up the pace and moved his hand from her breast to her mouth to stifle her moans as her pleasure began to build. “Just let go,” he breathed in her ear. “Let yer body do what is natural.”
Sophia cried out, her scream muffled against the palm of his hand, as her body shook and stiffened for a moment before falling back into his arms.
Dean took his time and kissed her face from her jawline all the way down to her chest until her body finally stopped shuddering and her breathing returned to normal. He wanted to do so much more to her body, but he knew that he had to wait. It wasn’t the time to take things further right now.
Her eyes fluttered open, and she gazed at him as she ran the tips of her fingers over his beard. “That was incredible,” she whispered.
“Aye, it was,” he whispered back before leaning down and kissing her with passion again.
CHAPTER15
Sophia fixedher hair in front of the vanity mirror before glimpsing the full tub of water that still sat in the middle of her room. The maids had yet to come and take it away. She blushed and bit on her lower lip thinking of what had happened between her and Dean.
Her heart beat a little faster at the thought of what had transpired. He had made her feel things that she never even knew were possible. It was as if her entire being had caught fire and exploded in wave after wave of sheer bliss and ecstasy. She’d never imagined that being with a man would feel like that. It had felt right in a way that made her want to be around him even more.
Dean had sat with her in the tub for a while until her tremors of pleasure had subsided, kissing her neck and whispering sweet nothings in her ear until the water had almost cooled. He’d carried her to her bed in the early hours of the morning, carefully tucked her in and left after she’d fallen asleep. The thought of how tender he had been made her blush despite the fact that she was alone in her room.
