his stomach. He was furious with himself for hurting her in the first place. If only the circumstances were different, she’d be inside his arms right now instead of being pushed away.
Little did she realize how hard he struggled to control himself. How he fought to resist the urge of lifting her tempting, voluptuous body in his arms and carrying her away. How he longed to lay her down on the cool green sod and take his time and make love to her. If only the circumstances were different.
The burning desire to explore every inch of her naked flesh set his mind ablaze. He envisioned parting her legs, his fingers stroking her woman’s moist center, lingering inside and arousing her. How desperately he longed to gaze in those emerald-green eyes while he watched satisfied jolts of pleasure flicker across her smooth, perfect face. He yearned to unbridle the restrained wild filly from deep within. To arouse her wanton desires and ignite the raging fire inside that burned to be quenched.
His animal instincts sensed the turbulence of passion storming through each of their bodies. He must get her back to the safety of the campfire and Colin’s company before he got carried away and lost total control.
“Do ye think ye can find yer way back to Colin and the fire on yer own?” The erect, throbbing shaft between his legs needed release. And soon .
“Yes, we’re not that far. I can see the curls of smoke from here.” She pivoted and pointed back to the direction of the makeshift camp.
This might be me last chance. He fled before the animal in him couldn’t restrain itself and overpower his senses. He didn’t look back. He heard Keara calling out his name.
I canna look back. I must go on. His heartstrings tugged at the sound of Keara’s voice.
The lass would never realize how much he wanted to take her that very moment. His blood boiled through his veins. His entire essence craved for her intoxicating body beneath his own. He struggled to contain the urge to turn around and sweep her up into his arms. Clenching his fists, he resisted the final temptation to carry her off in the dense, wooded forest, the one place he felt safe enough, where he could claim her for his woman. Where their bodies and souls could become one.
The twilight sky was filled with stars. The rolling hills seemed so distant beneath the cascaded light of the full moon. Any minute now, his beast would emerge, and once again he would be all alone. His keen hearing picked up Keara’s soft, velvet voice speaking with Colin. He even heard the contented purrs coming from Samson. At the sound of Keara’s calmed tone, he felt more content also. They should be safe now for the rest of the night. He would keep a close watch and make sure of it.
Bloody hell! What am I gonna do with the lass ? Not only did he have his hands full with young Colin, but now he needed to decide what he was going to do with Keara for the next day or two until he found a village to leave her at. Until then, he must protect her from the beast at all times. There was a strong bond between them now that he couldn’t deny. The sooner he got her far away from him, the better off she would be.
An intense burning pain began ripping through his bloodstream and he doubled over in pain. He grabbed his forehead. Sharp bumps protruded through his scalp. His fingers grasped the tips of the spiraling cold ivory between clenched fists, while silky long hairs rippled down his legs. The bloody curse had come to claim its victim, yet again.
Keara’s innocent, delicate face flashed in his mind. He concentrated on her freckled cheeks and those twinkling green eyes. The pain seemed to subside. He closed his eyes and remembered the feel of her warm skin next to his own and the taste of her sweet lips touching his. For the first time, the agony didn’t last as long as usual. The curse may take over his body, but he’d be damned if he’d let it touch that precious spark now tucked deep inside his
