up, between her thighs, and spread her legs wide as he placed his body over hers. She shivered in anticipation.
"Yes, V'Aidan," she breathed, arching her hips in invitation. "Please fill me."
His eyes feral and possessive, he drove himself into her.
Erin moaned at his hardness inside her. She'd never felt anything better than all his strength and power surrounding her, filling her totally. As he moved against her, she feared she would pass out from the bliss of it.
He touched her in ways no man had ever touched her before. As if he truly treasured her. As if she was the only woman who existed for him.
His moves were untamed as he thrust into her. Slow. Deep. Hard.
She wrapped her legs around his, sliding them up and down to feel his leg hairs caress her.
He dipped his head and captured her breast in his mouth, teasing it mercilessly as he stroked her with his body. She moaned deep in her throat, cupping his head to her.
Then, he leaned back on his legs so that he could stare down at her. Erin swallowed at the sight of him above her as she looked into his eerie silvery-blue eyes. He held her legs in his hands as he continued to drive himself even deeper into her.
His sublime strokes were primitive and hot and tantalizing. And they tore through her, spiking pleasure so intense it went all the way up her back and down to her toes.
V'Aidan licked his lips as he watched her watching him. Erin couldn't move. His eyes held her paralyzed. All she could do was stare at him. Feel him, deep and hard inside her.
She saw his pleasure mirrored in his eyes, saw him savoring her. And when he looked down to where they were joined, she shivered.
"You are mine, Erin," he said between clenched teeth, thrusting himself even harder and deeper into her to emphasize the words.
He took her into his arms and cradled her to his chest as if she was unspeakably precious.
Erin clung to him while she felt her pleasure building even higher. In white-hot sparks she came again in his arms. He buried his face into the crook of her neck and cried out as he joined her.
She lay perfectly still while he shuddered around and in her. His breathing heavy, he didn't move for several minutes.
Pulling back, he looked down at her. "I am with you, akribos,'" he whispered. "I will always be with you."
A strange wave of heaviness came over her. She closed her eyes. Even so, she could still feel and understand what was going on.
V'Aidan draped her over his chest as he lay on his back. She could feel his hands gliding over her while she inhaled the warm, manly scent of his skin.
Even asleep, she felt him near and knew he watched over her, protecting her from the others. And for the first time in weeks, she rested in total peace and comfort.
"Sleep, Erin," he said quietly. "The Skoti can't reach you here. I won't let them."
Erin smiled in her sleep. But as the darkness came for her again, an odd voice rang out in her head.
Now who poses the greater threat to you, Erin? Krysti'Ana or V'Aidan?
Part Two CHAPTER 2
Erin came awake slowly to find herself flat on her back, outside her cube. For a second she couldn't move at all; then her body slowly began to function again.
The first thing she saw was Chrissy's worried frown.
The second was the two EMTs sitting next to her. Her boss, along with several other co-workers, stood off to one side frowning down at her. John's face told her the only thought in his mind was how much paperwork he'd have to fill out over this.
"What happened?" Erin asked.
"You passed out," Chrissy said. "It was like you were frozen or something."
Erin covered her face with her hands as embarrassment filled her. Just her luck to have the most erotic dream of her life witnessed by half her office.
Oh God, shoot her now!
"How do you feel?" the paramedic on her right asked as he helped her sit up.
"I feel..." Her voice trailed off. She felt incredible, actually. Better than she had ever felt before.
"Ma'am?" the paramedic insisted. "Are you okay?"
Erin nodded, trying desperately to hold on to the image of V'Aidan, but it faded and left her feeling oddly lonely. "I'm fine, really."
"I don't know," Chrissy said. "She's been acting weird a lot lately. Hasn't been sleeping. Maybe a short hospital stay where she
