He released her braid, and within moments, the bodice loosened and sagged over her breasts. His deft fingers hooked on one narrow sleeve and lifted it up to where he continued to shackle her wrists, releasing one to tug the sleeve from her arm.
She took advantage of the freedom, swinging her arm back, looping it around his neck, and pulling him into her. God, the man could destroy a woman’s will with his smile. An intoxicating blend of mischief and sensuality. Unspoken desires and promises of immense pleasure. She held him close, but he resisted her pull to close the gap between their mouths.
“Stubborn, Rori.” His fingers caressed the side of her exposed breast, trailing beneath the heavy mound until his thumb crossed over her nipple. She gasped, a fierce tremor stealing more of her strength. Thaddeus chuckled, the sound pure sin.
“I’m nothing if not stubborn.” Her voice thickened, her breaths shallow.
“Shall we see how stubborn you can be?” His free hand slid along her arm, unhooking her hold from his neck and raising it to the bedpost. “Show me”—he drew her other arm down, low enough for the remaining sleeve to droop to her elbow—“how stubborn you wish to remain”—he manipulated his hold on her wrist, lightning fast, to relieve her of the sleeve. The gown billowed around her feet, leaving hercompletely naked except for a pair of thin silk panties—“as I taste every inch of your beautiful body.”
He lifted her hand to the bedpost once more, but this time, guided her fingers around the post.
“Hold tight. The moment you let go shall be the moment I cease my feast.”
Rori swallowed against the knot in her throat. He held her gaze as his fingers brushed down her arms, her chest, her breasts, her belly, tickling her skin, fanning her fire brighter, hotter. He caught the edges of her panties with his thumbs and didn’t hesitate to pull them down her legs, leaving them at her ankles as he settled on his knees.
He pressed close to her, his palms curving to the backs of her thighs, rising to crest the globes of her ass. She stared at him, unable to speak, breathe, her heart racing so fast her head felt light. Arousal dampened her core, leaked against her thighs.
With a little pressure against her ass, he tipped her hips forward. “How long can you withhold your pleasure, sweet queen?”
“Can’t.”
She shook her head, digging her fingers into the bedpost as his hands dipped down to her thighs again, curled between her legs, and opened her to his starved gaze. He spread her arousal over her skin while licking his lips painfully slowly. Only with Thaddeus did she feel no shame being so exposed. Being herself. Embracing her desires.
“My first taste of you, I was addicted. You’re an elixir I can’t live without.”
One of his hands came around to the front of her body, dipping into the wet crease of her core. She hissed as his fingers pulled across her aching clit. He chuckled, the damn beast. Chuckled as she suffered. Those cruel fingers pulledaway, glistening wet, and he brought them to his mouth. He inhaled deeply first, his eyes fluttering closed, before his fingers disappeared within his mouth. Raw, carnal pleasure crossed his face, and he released a deep, guttural sound that shook her foundation.
The man was the epitome of eroticism and seduction, determined to drive her insane.
His eyes opened to slits. The curl of his lips lifted.
Then he pulled her hips forward and drove his mouth between her legs, drinking from her core like he’d die of thirst.
Slow, deep, light, quick.
Rori cried out, bowing off the bedpost, opening herself to be unraveled completely by his hungry mouth and skillful tongue. She rode each deep probe of his tongue inside her body, the need for more mounting faster than she could control. He teased her with his teeth, gentle scrapes along her folds, only to lap at the new rush of arousal he produced.
The moment his tongue flicked over her clit, her knees threatened to give out. Those merciless lips sealed around her nub.
Sucked.
“Thaddeus!”
Rori grappled for his hair, fisting tight, pulling him closer.
Thaddeus lifted her from his mouth and sat back on his heels. He watched her as she tried to comprehend what just happened, drawing a thumb across his bottom lip and chin, glistening wet.
“Mm, so little willpower.”
“Why…did you…” Her gaze flitted to where she held a handful of his hair. Thaddeus chuckled, untangling her fingers from his hair, and rose to his feet. The onset of a mind-blowing orgasm wracked through her body, tremors and quakes threatening to drop her to her knees. “Ohh, you’re fucking mean.”
“Mayhap had I used magic to bind your hands, you would have come to orgasm on my tongue. Alas, I’m quite disappointed to have such a delicious meal end prematurely. Pity.”
Rori scoffed, shoving him back. He laughed until she grabbed his pants and tugged them down. The sight of his thick cock dripping at the tip unleashed her own beast. His short-lived humor morphed into insatiable hunger. A hunger that consumed her as she shoved him again, pushing him onto the bed. She crawled over him, mindless with need, ready to explode.
“I’m about to pity you,” Rori murmured, wrapping her fingers around his cock, dipping her head, and taking him into her mouth.
Oh, sweet heavens!
