EMRICK
Driving into her was pure ecstasy and holding back skidded further and further from my grasp with each stroke. She fit me like a custom made glove. I haven’t felt this out of control since I was fifteen and laid with a woman for the first time. I grabbed her hips and started a relentless rhythm. She wrapped her legs around my waist instinctively, almost shattering my control. Her body tightened around mine seconds before she threw her head back and screamed her release.
Muscles clenched and locked across my body then snapped free as I saw stars from a mind numbing release. My guttural roar drowned out her soft cries. There was no way the whole damn keep didn’t know what we were up to by now. I opened my eyes to watch the satisfied look on her face. Suddenly, I felt my life force leave my body and
EMRICKTwo more thrusts and I joined her in ecstasy. My body, shaking from the force of my orgasm. She unwrapped her legs from around my waist and slumped into my arms. I wrapped my arms around her waist to keep her from falling to the floor. Hell, I'm halfway there myself.I picked her up and carried her back to the bed, where she curled into a ball and went right to sleep. I chuckled as I pulled the covers up and covered her sweet body before I decided to climb in after her and lose myself in her sweet flesh for the rest of the day.It wouldn’t have mattered to me if she wasn’t a virgin, but the fact that she was will save me the trouble of hunting down any man who’s ever touched her and relieving them of their head
Kerrienne “Hello” I said, “My name is Kerrienne.” “Oh, thank the Goddess I’ve found you.” I took a small step back in surprise at the feminine voice that sounded in my head. “I was on my way to find you when I was accosted by these brutes. I was contemplating eating them but I was too weak after my transmutation. Then I heard them talking about your arrival with their Laird. So I let them capture me and lead me to you instead.” “You were looking for me?” “Aye.” “Why?” “I am your familiar.” The answer popped into my head. “My fa…” I stammered, looking her straight in th
EMRICK As I bathed and got ready, I couldn’t help but feel nervous. I was also excited about claiming Kerrienne as my bride, even if she wasn’t an ideal political match I’d still want her for my wife. I felt invincible whenever she was around, as if her magic somehow amplified mine. I took special care to comb my hair back, tying it with a piece of cowhide. I buttoned up my shirt and made my way to the great hall. It was empty. Since Kerrienne was the outdoors type, the festivities would be held in the courtyard, that way all of my people could attend the festivities.I made my way outside where the tables were now covered with food and drinks. Lars had sent more men hunting to make sure there would be plenty of meat for everyone.
EMRICKI nodded at Kerrienne then turned to look out at our clansmen. “Spread the word that I’ve been killed by an unknown archer and that my widow, the warrior princess of the McKay clan is marching towards Alastair’s keep in search of revenge.”I turned back to Kerrienne. “Looks like I have to wait a bit longer to claim you as my bride my love.”“So it seems.” She answered.“My lord, What should we do with the would-be assassin?” Lars asked.I looked into Daniel’s eyes then at Kerrienne. If someone killed her in the manner that Daniel’s wife was killed and made me watch, I would move heaven and earth to get my revenge on them, n
EMRICK“I don’t think your father likes me very much right now.” I said, taking her into my arms.“I don’t really care at the moment.” She replied, turning to face me. “Emrick, I’m scared.”“You don’t have to fight love.”She pulled out of my embrace and walked over to one of the portholes. She turned to look at me with such a look of despair. I crossed the distance between us in two steps and took her shaking frame back into my arms. I raised her face towards mine with a finger under her chin. As soon as I touched her, I knew.“You’re not
EMRICKConmael stepped up to us, “I will find you after the battle and answer all your questions, so no need to worry. I will be around.” He said right before he disappeared into thin air. I watched the men celebrate and felt content. I took Kerrienne’s hand in mine and gently pulled her towards our cabin. Tomorrow will come soon enough. Tonight I was going to cherish my wife.As if sensing my thoughts, Kerrienne turned to me and raised her face up to mine. I kissed her softly, passionately. We stopped kissing when the men started making lewd comments. We shook our heads and headed to our cabin as our men continued shouting loud and vulgar comments at our retreating backs.
KERRIENNEScota trotted up to me, looked from me to Emrick and back again. “You have started the bonding ritual.” She said in a surprised voice in our heads.“The what…?” I stammered.She looked from me to Emrick and continued “You have shared energy, sometimes even blood. It’s a gift that can only be shared between true soul mates.”“Yessss…” I said, still unsure of what that meant.“The mating ritual is different for every couple but there is always a sharing of energy. You can now share energy without touching, if one of you is weak,
EMRICKScota, now smaller, flew ahead, relaying what she saw to Kerri, and in turn to the rest of us. After a few minutes, she came back and perched on Kerri’s left shoulder.“There’s a small clearing up ahead where we can make camp for the rest of the night.” Kerri said.It was still dark when we got to the clearing. So we set about setting camp. Kerri sent Scota ahead to scout Alastair’s keep.We’d barely finished setting up camp when Scota came flying back. Kerri gave a sharp whistle. ‘Soldiers coming our way.’ She said to me through our bond.I whistled, and the men sto
