With gentle yet firm hands, he guided my head under the water, massaging away the soft lather enveloping each strand.
Cupping water in his palms, he addressed the lingering suds.
Cooling water cascaded down my back and I couldn’t stop my delighted shiver.
I meant to step away, but a hand on my shoulder stopped me while his other hand carefully combed through my damp tresses, untangling any knots with ease.
“That feels nice,” I said, giving my voice words to work with rather than issuing moans of pure pleasure.
“Good,” Hakkar murmured, and I felt the warmth as he stepped nearer.
His hands left my scalp to move to my neck and shoulders, massaging away the stiffness.
There was a silly old television show my ex loved that touted the axiom that massage always led to sex.
I’d always thought it silly, but here, standing naked in the warm water, Hakkar only inches away and my body throbbing like a bomb about to explode, it didn’t seem so insane. At least I hoped it wasn’t.
“Does this feel good too?” Hakkar’s deep voice came close to my ear, his breath teasing my cheek.
“Mmmm,” I whisper-moaned.
Hakkar fingertips traveled down my arms, sweeping up again to knead over my shoulders and neck.
“There is something else that felt very nice. I would like to try again.” Hakkar’s voice sounded positively guttural.
“What?” Curiosity made me turn, my hands landing on his pecs. The heat of his skin affected me like a magnet. I had to touch him. I let myself step closer, noticing the bob of his stiff cock just under the surface of the water.
“Kissing you.”
I felt my cheeks flush with a mix of excitement and embarrassment. “I—I thought I dreamed it… our kiss”
“It was very real.” Hakkar’s palms cupped the back of my neck, pulling me closer. “It was my first kiss, and I enjoyed it very much.”
“Your first kiss?” I felt my eyes widen at the same moment the heated pulsing between my legs increased.
“Yes. Most in the Alliance believe the touching of mouths together is very unsanitary.” As if in defiance, Hakkar brushed my lips with his, a gentle touch that sent lightning along my nerve endings. “They are fools.”
As if pulled by an unseen force, he leaned closer.
Our breaths mingled before his lips met mine with gentle urgency.
A rush of sensation flooded through my body, igniting every nerve ending with a fiery spark.
It was a feeling unlike any I had ever experienced before, overpowering and intoxicating all at once.
His tongue teased the line of my lips, and I parted my mouth, eager to deepen the kiss. His scent was spicy and so male it made me a bit dizzy, and my hands clutched at his shoulders for support.
As if Hakkar would let me fall.
His fingers tangled in my hair, as he greedily plundered my lips, like a starving man at a feast. His other hand tickled over my skin, ending at the curve of my butt. He squeezed the flesh and I swear I felt his lips curve into a smile.
I’d never felt this ravenous, craving more of someone, like kissing him was as necessary as my next breath.
My fingertips explored his chest, tracing over the rippled muscles before reaching the strong, flat surface of his abdomen.
Hakkar groaned against my lips as the kiss became deeper, more passionate. .. just more.
Damn, if this was only his second kiss, Hakkar must be some kind of savant. He’d set my body on fire!
The sensation was overwhelming, but in a most wondrous way.
Like a warm embrace from the sun, or the gentle touch of a cool breeze on a hot summer day.
My chest felt tight, as if someone had placed a weight on it, but it wasn’t at all unpleasant—it was a deep, unexplainable longing that I couldn’t ignore.
I whimpered as he pulled me closer, his broad hands sliding over my shoulders with a gentle touch.
A flush of heat spread across my skin, igniting a fire in my veins.
My heart raced, buzzing with an intensity I’d never felt before.
It was almost embarrassing how aroused I felt, my body betraying me in the presence of this man.
Not even my ex could elicit such a physical response.
But I was burning up for Hakkar, the desire spiraling out of control until I couldn’t resist any longer.
I gave in to my primal urges, linking my arms around his neck and pressing myself against him, feeling every contour of his body against mine.
The electricity between us crackled and sparked, sending shivers down my spine.
“Aggie,” Hakkar moaned, his fingers gripping my waist like a lifeline, holding me still. His forehead rested against mine for only a moment… a reprieve to let us catch our breath before his lips covered mine once more.
A sharp gasp escaped my lungs as his warm tongue slid against mine, teasing and stroking.
My body instinctively moved, writhing against him as I melted into the passionate kiss.
Every sense heightened as I tasted his lips and felt his hands on my skin.
The intensity of the moment left me breathless, lost in the heat and desire between us.
Hakkar lifted me with ease, his muscular arms supporting my weight as he carried me to a large, flat boulder at the edge of the pond.
With tender care, he laid me onto the smooth surface, his body pressing against mine in a dominating yet gentle manner.
His lips became insistent on mine, kissing me hungrily as his hands explored my body, starting at my breasts, caressing the soft skin before sliding down my hips and gently tracing their way across my inner thighs, sending spasms of delight straight to my core.
Hakkar’s touch lingered for only a moment as his fingers trailed higher, closer to the sensitive skin between my thighs. His golden eyes locked onto mine and I clung to his strong shoulders, nodding frantically as my body yearned for more.
“Please Hakkar, please?”
My entire being coiled with an intense longing, blood rushing fervently through my veins.
As his skilled fingers delicately spread apart my folds, gently exploring my innermost depths, a soft cry escaped my lips.
Each movement of his fingers sent electric shocks through my body, igniting a fire that spread rapidly.
My hips involuntarily rose to meet his touch, craving the pleasure.
Hakkar groaned in delight as he felt the slickness between my thighs, his fingers easily sliding and exploring.
My body clenched around him, as he found a rhythm that sent waves of pleasure rippling through me.
I felt his focus—every touch and movement calculated to drive me wild.
He read my body like a book, making me gasp and moan with each novel sensation.
As he pressed his fingers deeper, the heel of his hand ground against my sensitive clit and I couldn’t help but let out a breathless squeak of pleasure.
“Does this feel good, my Aggie?” Hakkar’s voice was low and tight as he repeated the same movement. When I wriggled and made another noise, he growled in satisfaction, his dark eyes filling with hunger and dominance. “Answer me. Do you enjoy when I touch you like this?”
His words sent a shiver down my spine, and I nodded eagerly. “Yes. Please... don’t stop.”
His defined, chiseled body loomed over mine, casting a shadow that seemed to engulf my entire being. As his fingers moved in and out, each stroke sending waves of pleasure through my body, I imagined it was his throbbing cock inside me, filling me with ecstasy.
“So good, it’s so good,” I whispered, my voice barely above a breath. My body was alight with desire, craving his touch more than anything else in the world. “I want...”
“I know,” he promised, his voice a deep rasp that sent shivers down my spine. Without hesitation, he plunged his tongue into my mouth, exploring every inch as if he was trying to consume me entirely.
The mounting pleasure within me reached a crescendo, threatening to consume my entire being, as his kisses became more urgent, and his thumb expertly rubbed my swollen clit while his skilled fingers curled inside me.
My body quivered and spasmed, my back arching as I released a guttural cry against his lips.
It was too good, too intense and I couldn’t hold back any longer.
“That’s it. Let go, come for me.” He rasped against my lips, his voice thick with desire.
A whirlwind of sensations overtook me, leaving me dizzy and overwhelmed.
My fingers dug into the muscles of his biceps as my hips bucked uncontrollably against his skilled touch.
Waves of arousal flooded over me, causing me to come harder than I ever had in my life.
Every nerve ending in my body was on fire, igniting with bliss and releasing all inhibitions.
Hakkar’s breath rasped like sandpaper as he watched me, his eyes drinking in every movement and detail. “You look breathtaking when you do that,” he murmured, the roughness of his voice sending shivers down my spine.
The way he looked at me made me feel like I was the only woman in the universe. I couldn’t help but feel beautiful and wanted under his intense gaze.
Every muscle in his body was taut and strained, like a tightly wound rubber band on the brink of snapping.
I watched the struggle in his beautiful golden eyes as he fought to hold himself back from the edge of his own orgasm.
Beads of sweat glistened on his forehead and his ragged breath matched my own.
My body felt aflame with heat, a searing sensation that coursed through my veins, and only intensified as Hakkar slowly withdrew his fingers from my trembling core.
With a seductive smirk, he brought them to his lips and savored the taste of my desire, in a move so sexy I felt the heat rise within me despite just experiencing the best orgasm of my life.
