Grace felt as the hand on her waist begin to roam. It trailed up her back before sliding down to rest on her hip. His touch was firm and ignited a trail of fire wherever it went.
She shivered as his lips left hers, only to travel down the line of her jaw. He placed slow, deliberate kisses along her skin and each one sent jolts of electricity through her body. When he reached the sensitive spot just below her ear, she gasped softly. Her fingers dug into his hair as she felt his lips brushing against the spot once again.
"Rune," she breathed. Her voice was trembling with a mixture of need and astonishment at what was actually happening.
Hearing his name on her lips only seemed to spur him on. He shifted and his lips started trailing down her neck, leaving a path of heat in their wake.
"You have no idea how long I have waited for this," he murmured against her skin. His voice was a deep rumble that sent shivers cascading down her spine.
Her body responded to him instinctively, arching toward him as if begging for more. Her fingers tightened in his hair further, pulling him closer as another soft moan escaped past her slightly parted lips. Every nerve in her body was alight and every sensation was heightened.
Rune pulled back slightly and his gaze raked over her flushed face. His eyes were filled with a mixture of desire, admiration, and something deeper, something that made her heart clench.
"You’re so beautiful," he said, his voice coming hoarse but sincere. "I can’t get enough of you."
Before she could have form any words to respond, his lips were on hers again, this time softer but no less passionate. The kiss was slower, more deliberate, as if he was savoring every second.
Grace felt her walls crumbling, her carefully constructed defenses falling away under the weight of desire. Her hands moved from his hair to his chest and she felt the steady thrum of his heartbeat beneath her palms. It was a grounding presence, a reminder that this moment was real, that he was real.
On the other hand, his hands continued to explore - one remained on her hip while the other slid up her back to cradle her neck where he brushed his thumb against her jaw. It was a small, tender gesture that contrasted with the intensity of their kiss.
When they finally broke apart, both of them were breathless, their chests were rising and falling in unison. She stared into his eyes while her mind spun and her heart pounded. She didn’t know what to say, how to put into words the whirlwind of emotions coursing through her.
Rune didn’t speak either, but the look in his eyes said a lot. The two of them just stared into each other’s eyes for a while before he stood up, taking her along with such ease that she felt surprised. She immediately wrapped her legs around his waist, locking them in place as he started walking.
She kept her gaze focused on his as he headed somewhere while holding her closely. Before she knew it, they were kissing again. It seemed like they couldn’t get enough of each other. Their tongues danced together in perfect sync, igniting a dangerous fire deep within them.
He finally stopped walking a few moments later, but she didn’t pull back at all. Their kiss continued as he lowered her until her feet touched the floor. His arms circled her waist once again as he forced her back until she felt the edge of the bed behind her.
With one more push, she was falling on the bed while he followed right after her. His lips found her all over again, kissing her like there was no tomorrow. She was able to feel his weight as he hovered over her, his lower body settling between her legs.
The moment their lower bodies came in contact, she was able to feel his hard erection right against her inner thigh. Not holding herself back anymore, she reached out to unbutton his dark green silk shirt. Her fingers took no time as they unbuttoned the top three buttons, but then he took over the job.
She watched as he pulled back and unbuttoned the rest of the buttons before taking off the shirt, allowing her a full view of his perfectly built upper body. She didn’t hold back as she took him in, but she wasn’t given enough time to enjoy what she was seeing as he once again distracted her as he lowered himself and kissed her again.
And while the kiss was deep snd passionate, it didn’t last for too long. His lips left hers and started trailing a sweet path down her throat. He kissed her collarbone and the swell of her breasts before stopping at the neckline of the top she was wearing.
He looked up and locked his gaze with hers as he pulled her up into a sitting position and reached out for the hem of her top. In one swift motion, he pulled the top off her and threw it down the bed.
He was then following her down on the mattress as he trailed kisses down her collarbone, the valley between her breasts, and then down her belly. One of his hands made its way behind her, unhooking her bra and pulling it off, revealing her perky breasts to his hungry graze.
Grace’s heart was thumping wildly as she watched him taking her in, noticing how his gaze turned darker. The next moment, he lowered his face and took her left nipple in his mouth.
She gasped out loud as his warm tongue attacked her already hard bud. Sparks erupted all over her body and she arched her back to press herself more into him. He showed no mercy as he devoured her like he had been starved for way too long.
