body against him.
Reluctance stiffened his spine, but he eventually acquiesced, easing over her, his breaths coming harsh and jagged,
his body trembling. “Natalie, let go of my neck.”
This time his plea lacked conviction. While intellectually

he knew he should resist, his body was succumbing to the
desire, just as she was. His hips rolled, and he rubbed his rigid
cock, still clothed in rough denim, against her delicate skin.
She opened wide her legs and reached for the top of his
jeans. Her fingers curved like talons around the waistband,
and she jerked them to open his zipper and shoved them down
his hips, past his hard, round buttocks. His cock emerged
from the parting zipper to fall against her belly.
Engorged, this thick shaft felt heavy and hard. Although
she hadn’t had any experience with sex, her body instinctively
sought connection. Her belly curved, rubbing and caressing
his shaft, and her knees rose on either side of his hips.
“No!” he gasped, and tried to hold himself away, but his
action only aided her intent, giving her room to reach between their bodies and grasp his cock and push it between
her legs.
When the blunt, rounded head of his sex brushed between
her slick folds, he stilled. “Not gonna happen, dammit !” he
seethed.
She sucked harder on his neck, punishing him, drawing
on him until he trembled again and lowered his hips which
forced him between her folds.
Natalie took him the rest of the way. Bracing her feet on the
bed to lift her bottom, she circled on his cock, screwing him
deeper inside, working his thick cock past her virgin walls.
She gasped at the pressure, gloried in the fullness. She
pulsed her hips, reveling in the deepening pressure and the
friction building between his shaft and her passage.
When his round, blunt head butted against the obstruction deep inside her vagina, he groaned.

Pain pierced through the sensual haze that had gripped her
to that point. Tempted to force him deeper, one last shred of
conscience caused her to hesitate.
Rene had been nothing but kind. Twice he’d risked his life
to rescue her. How could she take away his choice in this most
intimate act?
Although her body protested, growing rigid with denial,
she withdrew her teeth from his neck and lapped to stem the
flow of blood from the tiny wounds, finding that they closed
quickly under the glide of her tongue. Skimming her tongue
across the tips of her teeth, she felt them retract, like a cat’s
claws within their sheathes.
Rene pushed up on his arms and glared down. The fury banked
in his eyes made her shiver with the first frissons of fear.
“I’m sorry,” she whispered, not knowing how to explain
what she’d done. “I didn’t mean to—”
“Shut up.” His jaws clenched tight, and his body
trembled.
Tears filled her eyes, blurring the features of his face. “It
was too strong—the need—I couldn’t help it.”
“Just shut up!” he ground out. He didn’t press inside her
any further, just held himself perfectly still, grinding his
teeth with the effort.
But he didn’t withdraw his cock.
That little fact took a couple of seconds to register. She
kept silent, not wanting to anger him further, letting him take
the time to decide for himself which way this would end.
“What the fuck did you do to me? I can’t stop.” His forehead fell against hers. “I’m so damn hard for you. I’m gonna
hurt you, chère .”

She shook her head, but bit her lip afraid to speak, and
removed her hands from his shoulders, lowering them to the
pillow beside her head. This was his decision—his alone. If
he found the strength to fight the same overpowering urge to
mate that she felt, she’d lose her chance to be with him.
His gaze dropped from her face to sweep over her breasts
and lower to where their bodies joined. His nostrils flared and
his jaw tensed. His whole body
