Claimed by the Baron THIRTY-ONE
And she reacted to his kiss like a hungry woman. She couldn’t stop kissing him, tasting him, especially as her kisses seemed to make his eyes more feverish with lust. He growled at one point and pushed her on her back to the mattress, and she had to let the Baron have his way with her, reveling in every bit of kisses and nips and flicks of his wet tongue on every nook and cranny of her body. He took her hands and held them over her head as his knees commanded her thighs to open wide for him. When he drove inside of her, it was in one smooth motion. She was already soaking in her own juices. Ahh... so thick, she could feel all of him. Her inner muscles rejoiced at something to clutch. She was so hot for him that a few hard thrusts threw her on the edge of her first climax. She writhed violently under him, her velvety flesh powerfully vibrating around his cock until the giant waves of ecstasy passed. And her cries of passion filled the stone room. After that, Fabian’s thrusts became

ODETTE AND OLIVIE helped her get dressed. She was ready when the Baron entered her bedchamber to collect her. He was in casual finery this evening except for the luxurious surcoat that bore the cote of arms of their province. He went to her and kissed her, even with Odette and Olivie still there. The two women quickly disappeared. “I missed you last night,” Fabian said. His voice was gentle, but the look in his eyes was alert. She smiled up at him. “Didn’t you have a good time with the other lords?” “Some of them are close friends, yes. But I still missed you.” She sighed. “How could you miss me? I am not your betrothed or your wife. I am not important.” As soon as she’d said that, she wanted to take them back. But then he was kissing her again... hungrily and passionately, and she was instantly so consumed by it that when he stopped, she had melted into him and was as breathless as he was. “You are important, Adalene. You must know.” Only in his bed, she thought. She knew thi

HE GAVE HER TIME to clean up and get back to looking presentable before they went down to the grounds to be with his men. Heads and headdresses bumped again. The Baron told her to do everything she was told to do, and that’s what she did, not minding any of them at all. She did not believe the books he had gifted her with had been coincidences, since the characters were royals and the setting was in the palace court. She believed he carefully chose them so she could learn from them while he was away with the duke and the knights. She gained a few lessons from it about courtly manners and had even practiced the curtsies and memorized titles and what to address each one, asking Odette for guidance if she looked like she was doing it the right way. But using them when the person wasn’t there as opposed to them standing right in front of her, she found, was very different, for she was so fearful of making a mistake when faced with the Titled. So, she listened and observed others before ve

THAT NIGHT was almost like the night before. As soon as they began mingling with the others, Lady Veronique arrived like a vulture, and again, Fabian and the other men were summoned by the Duke. She tried to hide her dismay as he commanded his men to look after Adalene again before he left. She did not understand why she had to go down, anyway. She had no one she trusted enough to talk to, and she could not very well talk to the knights. I wish I had Odette by my side, she thought as she dismally walked out to the balcony to stare out into the night with a drink in her hand. But Odette and Olivie stayed on the outskirts of the feast with the other maids, so she was with no one. “Not enjoying the evening, my dear?” She turned to find an old, robust lady in a beautiful gown beside her, smiling at her kindly, but with eyes most curious and alive. Adalene smiled at her, grateful that at least there was someone to talk to while she spent a few more minutes before she asked for Sir Thi

ADALENE FELT tears filled her eyes and rapidly spilled over. This was the reason why she wanted to be alone. She knew she was about to cry. She did not expect it would hurt this much. She had only known the Baron for a few days, and yet he had become so important. She shouldn’t have fallen in love with him. How stupid could she be? But when he said he would give her groom a lesson on how to treat a man’s woman right, he also taught it to her. And now she would never, ever forget him. She would always be grateful for the little glimpses of heaven afforded her during the short time they were together. But it was too short a time! Her heart was breaking into what felt like tiny little pieces. She did not want to go. But Lady Veronique would never allow Fabian to keep her, while she didn’t know she could survive not being the only woman in his life, knowing there would be nights he would be in his wife’s bed – or bear the trouble Lady Veronique’s vengeance would bring her family. I had

A SOB ESCAPED from Adalene as she turned to look for that familiar voice, the one who’d always been saving her. It was Fabian! He was standing very near another tree in the dark that he was almost part of it if not for the soft light from the moon that gave away the outline of his build.“My Lord! You’re here,” she said in a voice she tried to sound strong even though she felt weak with relief. She restrained herself from running to him like a child. She was wary to stand up as the knight with the foul smell and mouth was still there and could still go for her. But, oh, how she wanted his arms around her!Fabian moved and stepped nearer, and even Adalene flinched at the cold fury simmering in his face that looked granite. She was suddenly so grateful she was on his side and not with anyone who opposed him. She had never seen him looking so dangerous. She now felt afraid of the drunk knight.From the shadows, Fabian’s other knights appeared. And then there was the pale Olivie. How long

HE HELPED her climb up the small steps to get inside the smaller carriage when they got there. He said he was going to ride with the others on the horses on the first leg of the ride. Odette came in after her with a box of accoutrements she could use to check and clean the cut near her temple.Adalene asked for Olivie right away.Odette looked a little sad as she tended the cut. “She is on the other coach with our luggage. She confessed to talking with the ladies-in-waiting here about you, my lady. She is the reason why they knew things about you and your relationship with the Baron.”“Why did she do that?” she asked, surprised but calmer now. At least, the woman was not hurt as she first thought.“I think she is jealous of you,” Odette replied after a moment, her voice heavy with disapproval and a hint of shame.“Because I am with the Baron?” she asked sadly. “Yes, if I wasn’t me I would get jealous of myself, too.”Odette looked a little stunned at her words, then smiled, and her sh

DEEP IN the night, as she slept in her cushioned seat, the carriage stopped and Odette got out. She was aware and smelled her Fabian when he got in and sat beside her to pull her towards him.She buried her face towards where his neck and shoulder met, where she usually would in this position, or when they were sleeping in bed. She minded he seemed to have discarded some of the rough parts of his garb, so it was easier to place her arms around him to hug him. To get closer to him.“Hmm... are we close? Why are you here?”“We’re close, and I am here because I am missing you terribly, and I needed you beside me.”She smiled against the skin of his neck. “Thank you.”“For what?” He sounded puzzled.“For everything you did tonight, saving me again, missing me, and being here because I missed you so, so much, too!” She tightened her hold on him. He felt so real and so complete. If that wicked man hadn’t been drunk and a coward and had hurt him tonight because of her, she wouldn’t know what

THE couple’s first morning in the cabin arrived quite differently, with the husband’s cock sliding inside the wife’s mouth.Fabian first thought he was dreaming still, only to find out that his beloved had taken control of the dream and was pleasuring him with her expertise in handling his cock after more than a year of getting to know it.And he must say, she did it so well that by the time he moved and pushed her flat on her back, he was already crazy with the craving to slide into her sweet, wet, tight warmth.And when he did, he was gratified to hear her imploring whispers to thrust deeper, to make it harder, as she angled her hips for fuller penetration.Her face was flushed with her own need, her eyes rolling up as he angled his hips to make sure his cock slid against her clit, or that sweet spot inside that could always undo her.Oh yes, she wasn’t the only one who’d memorized the other one’s body so thoroughly because eliciting the other one’s excitement and pleasure was param

EARLY the next morning, Fabian and Adalene were loaded inside one of the carriages and they went their way to the cabin near her family. It took most of the day and it was almost dark when they arrived.Since her family had the cabin stocked with food and whatever else they needed to stay there for a week, they started right away with cooking dinner.Someone, probably one of her brothers, left fire and wood in the fireplace that might have been alight the whole day, and though there were only embers when they arrived, the inside was comfortably warm. Fabian added more wood and it was crisply hot when they sat down to eat that they stripped down to slips and undergarments.“You can cook!” Fabian said happily as he got his second filling of the beef stew.Adalene shook her head. “I’m afraid that’s my mother’s cooking. She left it in a big pot for me to heat up when we arrived. I can cook, but I haven’t done much for a long time… since I arrived in the manor, practically, so I am not sur

“What is happening?” the Baron asked in a voice rich with enjoyment.“I cannot!” she whispered.“What do you mean you cannot? You insisted.”Despite the freezing air, Adalene’s cheeks felt aflame. “I can’t do it. I can’t watch that. Mon Dieu, please let’s hurry back before they see us!”His laughter sounded so loud to her ears that it alarmed her that Sir Thibault could hear them, and she felt relief once they were back inside the manor. They went upstairs and she did not stop moving until she was inside their bedroom, and when Fabian entered the door, too, while pulling his cloak off, one look at him and she was seized with hysterical giggles.He shook his head and started helping her take off her cloak and the strings on her gown. There were nights when she didn’t require Odette this anymore because she and Fabian mostly went up to the master’s bedroom together and it had become a nightly routine to help each other off their clothes while they talked about the day, or start making l

As preparations continued for the next trip to the port of Rome, Adalene paid more focus on shooting her arrows more accurately and her knife-wielding skills. It did not lessen her efforts when Fabian welcomed the idea of hiring a small group of stragglers who looked like stragglers but had a reputation for being sound companions on the rough road toward Rome. They could go to places the knights couldn’t go to and get information that could help make travel less dangerous. In fact, this made her work harder. She knew she was the reason Fabian worried, but not one of his men who knew him would dare ask him to leave Adalene behind. They also never made her feel like she was an encumbrance and made a way out of their time to check on her progress and spar with her every day. Traders bring female members of the family to fairs and trade ports. The only difference to theirs was their trader was a baron, at the behest of the Duke of Burgundy, but only in whispers.There was one person who d

“But I have something in mind now, too,” Adalene said.“No… you were busy with your book and I came over to distract you.”“And I am thoroughly distracted now. What are you going to do about it?” she asked in a throaty voice, pouting a little because she knew how that drove him crazy.And it did. The next moment, his mouth was devouring her lips, sucking them in and opening them so his tongue could probe inside and molest her tongue into a fight. And she did fight, tangling with him in tongue and limbs until she was pinned beneath him after he stood up and tumbled her to the couch. She had him inside her in one smooth stroke, stealing a groan out of both of them because of the sheer pleasure of that. And then he was thrusting slow and hard, her hips meeting each one, her skirts and underskirts bunched up her belly and her flushed bosom exposed to his eyes and mouth as he took her deliberately and with burning intensity because he knew this drove her crazy.She closed her eyes. She cou

As soon as she entered the library and saw the additional books on the new floor-to-ceiling shelves installed yesterday, Adalene gasped in delight.“I got new books!” she exclaimed, to which her tutor reacted with a tsk-tsk. Fabian acquired a tutor to teach her the necessary Italian phrases in the language she needed for our travels. He would have wanted to get her another one for computing but she was already in good relations with his compter who helped her with understanding some accounts in books she found here. Besides, Adalene only needed to learn the numbers needed for accounts concerned with buying stock and inventory. The Baron—her husband’s people were very capable.But, anyway, the new hardbound books Fabian bought for her were the ones she had requested. She wanted a few books written in the Italian language so she could start reading them and understand more the context of what her tutor was teaching her. And for the next three hours, Adalene stayed in the library for her

ONE YEAR LATER.It was a fine afternoon as Adalene practiced in the shooting range built nearer the manor since she started training. When they started planning on doing the trips Fabian and Duke Philip Lornier privately discussed the first time she accompanied her husband to the Duke’s castle and court, she told her husband she wanted to learn how to shoot arrows and defend herself. As she expected, he thought about it instead of negating as it was unwomanly to do so, and only about if they had what she needed in their weapons room. It took more than a month after the wedding before he started teaching her himself. She could easily move by then as her wounds have completely healed, and he had tasked a favorite bow and arrow craftsman to devise a set for a woman of her build and height. So the first time they went on the trip to Italy to trade in the ports where merchandise arrived from the remnants of the silk road, she already knew how to shoot arrows. News about robbers on the

ADALENE BELIEVED NOW.But watching the activity below, it was hard to believe she would marry in such grandeur. She never imagined this could happen in her life. Never.Her family was shell-shocked.They had arrived yesterday, the whole lot of them, and they huddled together almost most of the day, watching everything in a frozen state, not sure where they belonged until Odette had them busy with things they could help with.They were relieved to find they could easily converse with other workers in the manor, and that the Baron didn’t care for anything other than they settle in. Her little nieces and nephews were so in awe of the knights that they would either laugh or cry whenever one would actually talk to them, but they seemed to be thawing as the men made an effort to smile, talk and play with them when they could.Her mother had just left with Odette after helping her get ready and was somewhat calmer now. But yesterday, she was appalled to see the fresh scars that peaked from t

“I CAN’T BELIEVE this is happening,” Adalene whispered as she watched the gathering in the gardens from the window of her bed chamber.“What is hard to believe?”She whirled to find the Baron there, dressed in his finery as a groom—her groom. Her eyes warmed at the sight of him. She couldn’t believe he was going to be her husband.From that day they had started making love again, Fabian had earnestly toiled to get the wedding preparations underway. She had also since then found out that after that terrible night Lady Veronique had instigated—again—Lady Madeleine Clemence Gauvreau traveled back to the castle instead to angrily inform the Duke about the latest schemes of his cousin to hurt her nephew’s future wife. Fabian’s great-aunt demanded retribution.Since then, lady Veronique Moranville had been sent to Spain to marry a distant cousin from another family.And this was because Lady Madeleine and the Baron chose her instead to become part of their family.It felt like the world had
