toward her, power and grace emanating from him like a tiger on the hunt. She sucked in a breath just as he took her in his arms and pressed her into the mattress.
Hot, steamy kisses trailed over every inch of her exposed skin, from her neck and shoulders to the swell of décolletage peeking from her bodice.
Dina hummed in pleasure as he unlaced her dress and pulled off the top layer. Watching wide-eyed as he stripped off his own shirt and undergarment, she let her gaze lower down to his pantaloons. She’d never seen a man’s penis before, apart from sculptures, and she was very curious.
Reaching out, she pulled open the top button of his falls. His hand stayed her.
“We will get there my sweet, but first you must be good and ready for me.” Climbing back over her, he settled down so that they lay chest to chest, and then he took her mouth with a fervor that she’d never seen in him before.
His tongue begged entrance to her lips, and she parted for him, eager to see where it would lead. The slow, seductive swirl of his tongue over hers overpowered all thought, so she barely noticed his fingers loosening her short stays.
When his thumb circled her nipple, she cried out. The sharp sting of rapture was almost too much to bear. He rubbed the peak between his fingers with enough pressure to make her writhe under him. While she did not want him to stop, she did not know how to handle the intense sensation of pleasure mingled with a hint of pain.
She’d never realized how sensitive her own body could be, but then again, she’d never been touched so intimately before.
Easing the pressure, Chevalier continued to toy with her nipple as he kissed his way down to the curve of her neck. The soft lick of his tongue was heaven, but when he sucked the skin, her sex clenched and desire lanced through her, piercing her to the core.
Dina panted and wrapped her arms around his back, gripping him tightly. So many sensations jumbled together, it was impossible for her to discern what she was feeling—apart from need.
A warm hand ran up her thigh, massaging as it went. Then, it slipped below the fabric of her petticoat and chemise, caressing her bare flesh. Her hips lifted, and moisture gathered between her legs.
“Open for me,” he whispered, and she obeyed, not knowing what he was about until she felt his hot fingers on her slit, stroking and teasing.
When his finger skimmed the tight, sensitive nub, her body clenched and convulsed. If she’d thought her nipples were sensitive, she’d been mistaken. Nothing could have prepared her for the fierce ecstasy of a hand on her bud. How had she not known this before?
She lowered her hand above his. “May I?”
He nodded and she slipped her fingers into her cleft, which was slick with her body’s dew, pausing when she found the little knot just under the hood of her sex. When she touched it, everything around her went dark, and all sensation flooded to that one spot. She moaned and clutched the sheets with her free hand.
Inside, it felt tight and coiled, but as her finger circled her spot, she realized how soft it was. She played with the hood and labia, then made her way back. When in her entire life had she known such rapture? Yet, she wanted more, she needed more. For as she stroked, her body grew tense, and her longing intensified.
“Let me,” he whispered, kissing his way down her chest and belly. He pulled her hand away, and she waited to see what he would do.
Chevalier kissed her cleft, his warm breath fanning its heat over her sensitive flesh. She giggled and opened her legs wider to accommodate him.
The first touch of his tongue was magic, transporting her to another world, and she could only grip his head and shoulders and hold on as he kissed and licked every inch of her tender skin.
The swirling over her pearl made Dina lose control. Her whole body arched as she reached out and grabbed the pillow behind her, her hips lifting into his face. He flicked his tongue
