Page 59 of Her Faithful Protector

She took three deep breaths and the pain drifted away. It was like it had never happened. Instead, she was connected in the most primal way possible to the man she loved. She pulled back so she could look into his eyes and smiled.

He searched her face. She knew what he saw—nothing but love.

A slow smile spread across Nic’s face. She felt him pulse deep inside her and her eyes widened.

“Are you ready?” he asked.

“I’m ready for anything.” She grinned. She gasped as he slowly retreated, his cock caressing every part of her, then he pushed back inside just as slowly, watching her intently. Had anything ever felt so good?

“That’s my line,” he smiled.

She must have said that out loud.

He continued to caress her channel with delicious strokes of his cock. She gulped in a huge breath when he pressed even deeper, then pulled back out, scraping against a magical place.

“Again,” she begged.

His strokes got faster and stronger, and her legs wrapped around his waist. He moved the hand that had been beside her head and slid it down her body until he was once again touching her clit.

It was too much pleasure, but she greedily grasped every bit of it. She looked up into his handsome face, memorizing him, memorizing this perfect moment in time.

“I want everything,” she begged. “I want you to give me all of you.”

She loved his look of surprise.

“Let go, Nic. I want us to fly together.”

It was like she had unleashed a thunderstorm. His kiss was ferocious. His tongue delved deep, exactly matching the rhythm of his cock, his chest glided against her breasts, making her nipples feel like they were going to burst.

Higher and higher he pushed her. So high she could see the clouds, the sky, the stars.

She burst through to the edge of the galaxy, lost in wide emerald green eyes that were dazed with pleasure.

“You’re my everything, Cami,” he whispered as his thumb traced her bottom lip. “My everything.”

“What took you so long to get here, Mrs. Ross?”

It was Nic’s voice, and he sounded pissed. Wait, she’d told him to leave, hadn’t she?

“I had to give a speech, if you must know. I’ve been in constant contact with Camilla’s doctors as soon as she was admitted. If I thought her situation was critical, of course, I would have canceled and come immediately.”

“Where’s Mr. Ross?”

Oh, he sounded so pissed. She needed to open her eyes. This was not good.

“Clifford is on a dig. I contacted him, but it will be a couple of more days before he can get here.”

“Jesus Christ, you people are fucking amazing.”

“Nic,” Camilla called out as she opened her eyes. “What are you doing here?”

“Camilla, you’re awake.” Her mother walked over to her side before Nic had a chance to answer. “How are you feeling? The doctor said you might need to have another surgery, he’s not sure, it depends. The damage was extensive.”

Camilla looked into eyes that were a mirror of her own. “Hello, Mother. What country is Dad in?”

“Mongolia. He should be here the day after tomorrow, that is if you’re still in the hospital. I think it would be best if you came home for a little while. I don’t think you’re in any condition to take care of yourself. I can hire in a nurse.”
