Highlander's Kiss (Clan Matheson #1)

“There is naught wrong. Your aura is saturating mine, fully enveloping me.”


“Well, about damn time.” He slid one hand around her nape and his warm breath whispered tantalizingly across her lips. “You are my true mate. Claim me, just as I wish to claim you.”

Her grandmother’s words reverberated through her mind. Live as you’ve never lived afore, my dear. There is warmth and an all-encompassing heat at the end of the tunnel. That is the place you seek. All your heart longs for will soon come to light and from that sacred place, your journey shall begin.

Aye, her journey had now begun, right here within the all-encompassing heat at the end of the tunnel. She slid her fingers into Tavish’s silky black hair and nuzzled his neck. She licked over the mark she’d given him that very morning, right there within the sensitive hollow where his shoulder and neck met. His pulse throbbed under her tongue and dizzy with need, she scraped her teeth back and forth, her only desire to bite him, to mark him fully and completely as hers. “I wish to live, Tavish, to be a part of you, just as you will be a part of me.”

“Bite me.” He rubbed his body against hers, his aura flaring with more need and flushing hers with the same. Holding her head against his flesh, he sucked on her neck and she clamped down on him and bit him just as he’d asked her to.

He bucked and moaned against her, slid one finger under the shoulder of her shift and eased her sleeve down her arm. A low rumble vibrated in his chest as he freed her breasts and gazed at them, then he dipped his head and licked the hard buds which tightened further under his hot and marauding tongue. “You skin is so flushed. Are you all right?”

“I’m about to lose my mind.”

“Then we’ll lose our minds together.” He curved his palm around her breast, flicked one finger over her nipple and smiled at her. “Say aye.”

“Aye.”

“Thank you, my love.” He covered her mouth with his, captured her lips in a wickedly scorching kiss, his hard body a powerful stamp of heat that embedded itself into each and every inch of her. He licked her tongue and she couldn’t help but respond. She sucked it into her mouth and when she did, he delved deeper and growled, his bear rising to the surface and rippling right under his skin.

Mmm, he tasted so good. She melted into a pool of liquid heat, wishing this kiss would never stop. Naught had ever felt so right and a desperate spike of need rushed through her, so strongly, so fiercely. She rubbed her body against his, kissed him wildly in return and reveled in their beautiful bond. Being this close to him was sheer perfection. She seized his biceps and held on as he kissed her over and over, until their breath mingled as one and the heat between them blazed into a fiercely hot fire. “I need skin on skin.”

“So do I. Hands up.”

She lifted her arms and he swept her shift over her head and tossed it on top of the pile of their discarded clothes.

“Hell, you’re so beautiful.” With one finger, he traced around her beading nipples then down between the valley of her breasts to her belly button. His aura heated further, as did the molten gold of his shifter eyes. “I can’t believe you’re all mine.”

“As you’re all mine.”

“Aye, always, from this moment forth and throughout all of time.” He clasped her bare bottom, dipped his head and sucked her nipple deep into his mouth.

“There will only ever be you.” She arched into him, desperate to rub against the hard length of his erection almost spearing through his black leather trews. She fumbled with the ties at his waist.

“Here, allow me.” He eased up, loosened the waistband then shoved the fabric down his heavily muscled legs. His cock bobbed free and brushed his belly, the shaft so thick and the plump head glistening on the very tip. Goodness. How on earth was she meant to fit all of him inside her? Obviously it must be possible since man and woman had been joining together since the beginning of time, only she had no idea quite how.

“What has that worried look flittering across your face?” He kicked his trews away, knelt between her legs, his balls pulling higher and firmer into the nest of dark curls covering the V at his groin.

“Every maid must be worried when first contemplating such a joining.”

“I never want to hurt you, only the first time there will be a little pain. I’ll do all I can to ensure it’s minimal.”

“May I touch you there?”

“I’d love nothing more.” He gripped her hand and spread her fingers around his long and full length. His cock was so velvety smooth yet also hot and hard.
