LOVING HER DUKE Reassure Me, Charles
He noticed her hesitation, and how fixed her smile was. His heart was scared. "Evening Beth.""How has your day been?""Good." His morning had been excellent. Charles hoped his night would not become the opposite."Lovely. I would like to have a word with you."He nodded that she continued, but she would not speak, rather, she remained by the door, gaping at him, leaving him to wonder the state of his face.Her expression was odd and she appeared troubled. For a moment Charles didn't recognize her, standing there almost a stranger. She stood as the woman he had met when he came to Westside Manor, not the one who had erupted from intense ecstasy in his arms the night before.Was she about to utter words to ruin their day? Their lives? He wouldn't allow her; he had made a promise to them. He would not stand on the bylines and watch things go up in flames, again. And he would not let her go, even if they disagreed.Charles waited patiently and when he could no more, he beckoned to her. "
LOVING HER DUKE In His Arms
Charles's blood boiled and he became impatient as well. Keeping his eyes on hers, he sent his hand between them to stroke his erection and slowly eased it into her swollen sex. She gasped, welcoming him with a smile. He was maddened.Her hands remained on his shoulders and her grip became tight when he pulled her closer, helping her take all of him and stretching her, filling her to the brim.Charles waited for her to become used to the invasion before he encouraged her to move. Shyly, she moved at first, then purposefully, then with vigour. His hands held her waist, stationing her. Her bobbing breasts dangled before his face and he was torn if to favour them with his tongue or simply watch them. He gave in.Claiming one nipple with his mouth, he sucked hard. Beth tightened her hold on him, crying out softly. She arched her back and he felt her spiralling towards rapture. There was so much pleasure and so much urgency he could not stand it.Her walls clenched and she quivered. Charles
LOVING HER DUKE Visiting Westside Manor
January 1827Christmas day came and went along as did the New Year's day celebration. It was all a jumble of emotions for Beth that she felt faint a few times. Many families sent them their best wishes and Lady Marjorie sent elaborate gifts and even more elaborate bouquets of flowers.At Charles's request, they declined all invitations and spent the days together. On the eve of the new year, Charles gave her a gift, and at the stroke of midnight, as they stood on the balcony, he kissed her. It was real and equally overwhelming.The few days they had before he left to show his allegiance to the King and the kingdom were filled with duties and preparations. Charles was constantly out of the mansion, preparing for his trip – as he would call it – and Beth worked together with the men at the building site, managing as well as she could before her visit to Westside Manor. They worked hard all day, but the nights were filled with intense and passionate lovemaking.There existed between them
LOVING HER DUKE In The Marble Room
He kissed the crown of her head and she leaned back, coming to kiss him softly on the cheek. Because her tears stained his cheek, she wiped it, as well as hers. He smiled. "I can never begin to tell how much I have missed you. Gwen has been harder to handle without your help."Beth burst into a hearty laughter. "I am certain she has."Her father waved the others forward. Then, he invited. "Come, we should eat. Your mother had guinea hen with apricot stuffing made, and Grace has been fussing even if she would never tell.""God forbid we think her too soft." Beth teased, clinging onto her father's arm.The women at the bottom of the stairs climbed up to join them and they entered the house. Gwen and Lucy held onto their mother on each side.Beth smiled feeling warm and tired but happy. Nothing had changed, she was still the daughter of Radclyffe and Victoria Fitzgerald and would remain so come what may.She had regained her family's love.She had indeed made the perfect circle.* * *"Y
LOVING HER DUKE On Westside Hill
* * *With a gesture, Charles commanded and Albert gave the King a parchment, bowing to him. It was the testament of the Viscount of Lumbridge. The latter topped off his glass. "Is this proof enough?"Alexander slammed it on the table. "Do not gloat. It is not an attractive trait."Charles drank his brandy. He wasn't gloating. He was angry.They sat in a stateroom on Brand's ship, gathered together in discussion. Lord Denney had indeed been in cohorts with the pirates much to Alexander's chagrin and Charles's annoyance. The testament bore the agreement of both parties under the witness of Lumbridge's greedy, yet spineless Viscount. Charles pitied Alexander.Against better judgement, the King had decided yet again, against removing his uncle from his title and rendering him penniless for treason. It was not understandable. He had hoped this to be the final straw on the camel's back but had been wrong.Brand groaned quietly. "I was hoping for it to be a misunderstanding." He groaned aga
LOVING HER DUKE Reminded Of Her Smile
Beth was smiling. She felt different than she thought she would. Climbing up, she thought there would be sadness and pain and regret, but there wasn't, rather there was calm and peace and as she talked, there was company, for it felt like he was sitting across from her, listening."My husband and I get along so well you would be surprised. He is a good man, Eric, and I love him. You would have loved him too." She sighed. She wanted to tell her brother that Charles was incapable of loving her too, not because he did not want to, but because he could not, but she did not. It was no fault of his. The former Duke had hurt him too much and some part of him remained broken. "He makes me happy and I am content." She said rather.She rearranged the flowers over and over again, fussing with the already perfect bouquet. "Lucy is married now too and tending to her own home. In your words, Gwen is a woman now and remains the strong-willed girl who was up to one mischief of the other." She smiled
LOVING HER DUKE Letters
"My Lady!" Anna rushed out to meet them as soon as they returned to Westside Manor, collecting the basket of wares from her mistress. "A messenger is here for you. From His Grace, he says. Mrs. Grace asked him to wait in the Marble Room."Beth's breath caught. From Charles? There was someone for her from her husband. Without any thought whatsoever, she picked up her skirt and hurried to the man.She had accompanied Gwen and Lucy to the marketplace to watch the gipsies. On and on they had moved from one stall to the other, being entertained by the talented crew. A juggler juggling five apples, a girl walking the line held by two other men, the fire dancer who could make fire appear and disappear. She enjoyed her time in town but nothing was compared to the happiness she felt when Anna gave her news of a man from her husband."Beth, do wait for us." Gwen called, but she wasn't listening. Her husband's message was waiting.Was all well? Why was there a message from him? He had told her t
LOVING HER DUKE Gwen's Fears
* * *Dearest Husband,I am glad my note made you glad. Waiting for your note has become the best part of my visit and when I read them, I feel even more alive. Whenever I see the carriage of your messenger even from afar, I become very delighted because I know he has come bearing a missive from you. Jem might just about be an angel.A few days ago, I climbed up Westside Hill, alone. I visited to give a proper farewell to Eric, he deserved that much and I felt relief after. It was a wonderful feeling.I had to let him go so I can only remember the good times.How fares the attack?Beth, your wife.* * *'Wife,Be careful, else I might have to remand Jem. How dare he?You are a constant thought in my mind too, and in my trousers. Everyday I miss you all over again and wish I were there with you. I should have been there with you too when you went up the hill. Bethany, I want you to depend on me completely and I would do all I can to protect you from hurt in and out.I am here for you.'
