Highlander's Seduction (The Matheson Brothers #3)

“It will mean naught.”


“Not to me it won’t.” He palmed the back of her head and held her mouth to his neck. As he did, he licked her erratic pulse point in the same spot.

“I shouldnae be doing this, only I cannae think straight right now.” She clutched his shoulders, her nails digging into his flesh then she shoved his collar to the side and exposed his skin.

“Don’t think about anything, only about doing.” He razzed her skin with his teeth then bit her.

“Oooh, that I like.” She arched into him, then dipped her head and sank her teeth into his skin in return.

Arousal hit him hard and fast.

“More, I need more.” She rocked against him and likely the same surge of desire raced through her as it did through him. Their bite wasn’t just a mark of claim but also a bite that brought on fierce sexual desire.

“If I do anything you don’t like, then tell me.” Slowly, he eased his hand inside the fabric of her bodice, the silk sliding sensuously across the back of his hand. He palmed her full breast and thumbed her peaking nipple. He needed to taste her. Gently, he eased the fabric over her shoulder and exposed her breast. He certainly damn well wished he could see her. Swiftly, he drew the bud deep inside his mouth and played the tip with his tongue. She tasted exquisite, and as he imbibed on her, she clung to him and pushed the sweet morsel even deeper into his mouth. He couldn’t halt his desire, didn’t even have the chance of doing so. He freed her other breast from its silken bond and gave it as much attention as he’d laved on the first.

“Dinnae stop. Bite me again, Kirk.”

“I’d love to.” He nipped the upper swell of her breast as he swept upward then sucked on the sensitive skin where her shoulder and neck met. “Ready?”

“Aye, I’m beyond ready.”

He bit down and she cried out, her gasp so sweet, as if she was on the brink of an orgasm. Damn it. If she was close, he intended to take her right over the edge and to the heights he desired for her to soar. Everything within him demanded he see to her every need. She’d given up her life for the care of her people, and he would do the same in a heartbeat for her as well. He rolled her onto her side, patted down her body and scrunched her gown’s hem up.

Even though he’d never touched a woman before, he certainly wasn’t unaware of what she’d need in order to reach the heights of ecstasy. Few would be who lived in his time. He slid his palm along her inner thigh and nudged her legs farther apart. She widened them and her heat and honey scent called to him. At the entrance to her core, he halted, his fingertips touching the soft curls guarding her most private place. “I need to touch you,” he rasped. “Deep inside. May I?”

“Kissing you is clearly dangerous.” Softly whispered words as the ties of his pants loosened at her invisible touch. “I’ve lived a long time, past, future and present included and there is little I’m unaware of that can happen between a man and a woman. I mean, I’ve never slept with a man, but if you touch me right now then I intend to touch you in return. I want to give you what you desire, or at least what I can for this one night.”

“I desire you and whatever you need.”

“And I desire the same for you, Kirk. Touch me.” She wrapped her hand around his cock and he nearly exploded at her touch right then and there.

“I’m all yours. Touch me too, as you please.” He eased his fingers between her folds and rubbed her slick nub. “And I mean for all time, Cherub, not just this one night. You’re my mate, the only woman I’ll ever touch, the only woman I’ll ever desire.”

Her need called to him, her sweet scent swirling seductively around him. All he wanted to do was wriggle down, flip her skirts higher and imbibe at the very heart of her. His bear fairly raged at him to do so. Instead he plunged one finger inside her hot channel and bumped his nose against hers as he tried to find her lips.

“I’m right here.” She angled her head and captured his mouth and kissed him, just as ravenously as he kissed her. She was the only one who could provide him with the ultimate sustenance he needed.

Aye she was his one and all, the only woman his soul would ever seek. He stroked deep inside her then pulled out to caress her clit, his desire to give her everything she needed roaring through him.
