Page 50 of His Wicked Secret
He stared at her for a long moment, his eyes settling upon her lips, and he lifted his hips and slid his drawers off. His erect shaft was in full view. Audrey stared at it, amazed at its girth. The thing was…massive. She’d seen statues of men in their naked form, and they were all quite tiny compared to him. How was that supposed to fit inside a woman? Or her mouth?
“You don’t have to—”
“Shush. I’m learning.” She reached out and gripped him, stroking him. He moaned softly, his head falling back on the bed. “How do I start?”
“Any way you want. There’s no incorrect way…as long as you don’t bite down, that is.”
Audrey moved down his body and lay at his hips. She leaned over him, boldly drawing him into her mouth. The taste of his silky hard shaft was intriguing, and the way his hips jerked and he fisted his hands in the sheets was most gratifying.
I own him now, at least in this. Emboldened by his reactions, she moved her mouth up and down his length again and again, trying different paces and sometimes pausing to lick the tip, giggling as he cursed again and again.
“I’m not going to last, sweetheart. You need to stop—”
She used one hand to stroke the base of the shaft and used her mouth to cover the rest as much as she could, and then she sucked hard. She was startled at the sudden flood of a slightly salty taste upon her tongue. What wasthat?
He groaned, and then his rigid body went limp beneath her as every muscle in his body relaxed.
“Dear God, woman, you’ve done it,” he said, throwing one arm over his face. “You actuallykilledme.”
She released his shaft, and it fell against his thighs, no longer hard and erect.How interesting…“I can taste you,” she said, and licked her lips.
Jonathan lifted his hand up from his face. “Come here.” He gathered her in her arms, crushing her down on top of him. He claimed her lips hungrily, ravaging her mouth, even biting her bottom lip and tugging on it with his teeth, before he relented and his kisses turned more gentle.
“I’ve never met any woman like you.” He cupped the back of her head, his fingers massaging her scalp in the most delightful way.
“I’ve never met any man like you,” she echoed. She knew that once her sanity returned, she would feel some shame for what they’d done, not because she didn’t believe in passion, but because she still believed he didn’t really care about her, not the way she did him. There was a difference between affection and mere sport, but in the heat of the moment one might resemble the other.
Once this glow between us fades, he will regret sharing this intimacy, and I will regret opening my heart to him again.
They lay together for a long while before he finally sighed, his breath stirring her hair by her temple.
“I must get up and return to my chamber before breakfast, and…I need to shave.” He stroked his chin and jaw. The light stubble, darker than his skin, made him look rather devilish.
“If you must, but I would like to watch you shave, if I may.” She nuzzled her cheek against his. She wanted to imprint this on her memory. It may well be her only real chance to feelthiswith anyone else.
Even if I am the only one who feels this way, at least Ihave this quiet moment of intimacy to remember.
A knock on her door had Jonathan leaping out of bed and back into his clothes.
“Just a minute!” she called out. It had to be the maid her sister had assigned to her, Sarah. Audrey covered her mouth with one hand to keep from giggling at the sight of Jonathan’s bare backside as he jerked his drawers up.
“Don’t you dare laugh,” he warned.
“I’m not!” Now she was giggling because he’d told her not to.
He jerked on the rest of his clothes and finally faced her, hands on his hips.
“You best cover up unless you want your maid to see you lying there like the goddess Venus.”
Audrey pulled some of the bedclothes over her hips and flashed him what she hoped was a saucy look.
“And now?” she asked, batting her eyelashes.
“Somehow that makes it worse,” he said with a hungry look. “Having tasted heaven between your thighs, all you’ve done is now wrap yourself up like a present for me.”
“Very well.” She sighed and this time fully covered herself. Only then did Jonathan open the door and allow the maid to enter. Sarah’s gaze was downcast discreetly while she waited for Jonathan to leave. Once Jonathan had removed himself, the maid looked at Audrey with blushing cheeks.
“Shall I draw you a bath?”
