over.
He settled between her legs, lifting her knees so that one leg was around his waist. As he slid inside of her, he watched her face. She was surprised by the invasion, but her body was more than ready to accept him. He closed his eyes briefly as her heat closed around him, feeling so good he had to concentrate to not climax himself.
Zarah arched and shifted her hips, trying to relax and let her body accept all of him but this was too new for her. Her hands gripped his shoulders once again and she bit her lip as the pain stabbed her momentarily. Nervously, she glanced up at Derrick to see if he noticed, but his jaw was tight and his eyes closed.
When he stopped, Zarah took a deep breath, trying to relax her muscles and become more comfortable with him like this. But it was difficult. He was a large man and she was too new to all of this. When he started moving, she initially grabbed his arms, trying to stop him. But then the friction caught her and she gasped. All thoughts of stopping him flew away, replaced by the desire for him to move once again. She almost laughed when he did just that, without her asking him to. She lifted her hips this time, taking all of him once again and loved the way he felt as he shifted inside of her.
As he picked up the pace, there was no more thinking on Zarah’s part. All she could do was hold onto him, knowing that he would keep her safe. When her body exploded once again, this time more intense and longer, she cried out and wrapped her legs around him, holding him as closely as possible as the storm exploded.
Derrick couldn’t hold back any longer. As her body convulsed around her, he pushed into her harder, faster. And as she cried out, he felt his own climax overtake him. Nothing like this had ever happened to him and he held her close as they slowly drifted on the plateau of incredible pleasure before sliding gently, ever so softly back down to earth together.
Chapter 9
Zarah woke up to something tickling her back. She didn’t feel like opening her eyes because she was still so tired from the previous evening. “No,” she whispered and snuggled down into the soft sheets.
Derrick laughed at her stubborn expression but wasn’t relenting. “You have to wake up sooner or later, Zarah.”
“Later,” she sighed, still with her eyes closed. But consciousness was seeping in despite her best efforts to remain asleep. The light from the window was hitting her eyes as the sun made its way higher into the morning sky and she felt Derrick’s heat from his chest on her back. The heat was so intense, she was actually feeling uncomfortable and wanted to throw off the sheet. But that would give him more of a reason to think she was awake and she was just too tired right now. “Go away,” she growled.
In response, he nibbled along her neckline, teasing the sensitive skin he’d discovered on her back. “You should know by now that I’m not letting you get away with that.”
Zarah stretched out and tried to put just a few inches between her back and his chest. “You’re too hot,” she complained. “Move over.”
Derrick surveyed the beautiful back that was all he could see at the moment, contemplating how to get her out of bed. His housekeeper was downstairs with breakfast ready and he knew that she had a meeting with several of the village shop owners in less than an hour. But as his eyes moved down her back, taking in her adorable back side, he couldn’t stop himself. His hand moved slowly down her spine, tickling her as he made a path to her bottom, which he knew from last night she didn’t like him to touch for some reason. It was perfect, he thought, with a round shape and long legs. His hands had cupped that bottom several times in the heat of their passion and she hadn’t minded then. It was only when he wasn’t inside of her that she shook her head.
But she was asleep now. And he intended to take full advantage of her desire to try and ignore him. He considered it his civic duty to get her fully conscious so she could make it to her meeting this morning. He’d even go with her if it would help,
