Chapter 114

Kit’s hips continued to rock back and forth, her outer lips spread against Cassius’s cock as his hands slid up to find her breasts. “Kit, you need to let me put on the sheath before I forget how,” he whispered before her lips found his again.

She knew how good he felt with a sheath on, but imagining him inside her, his flesh on hers, sent a tingling sensation up her spine. “What if you didn’t?” she asked, his mouth on her neck.

He pulled his lips away to look her in the eye. “Then I would be committing a crime punishable by death.”

“Who would know?” She knew she was being wicked, but it was so tempting, and she longed to feel him inside of her.

“Kit...”

“Just for a moment, just a little taste.”

“You are going to be the death of me,” Cassius said. With a deep breath, he picked her up around the waist, and tossed her backward into the tub a few feet. The water splashed out all over the edge of the bath and continued to create ripples and waves as Kit stared at him wide eyed in disbelief.

Chuckling, Cassius reached for the sheath he’d laid nearby and put it on before Kit could regain her composure. She was surprised, but certainly not injured. Once he had it on, he said, “I apologize, Princess. But... we wear these for a reason.”

She narrowed her eyes at him and threatened, “Perhaps you no longer need it.”

“Oooh, Kit!” He grabbed ahold of her calves and dragged her back to him, wrapping his arms around her waist as he sat her on his lap. “Don’t be cross. Sometimes you have to be talked out of things.” He kissed her lips, but Kit didn’t move, feigning offense. “It’s for your own good.” He kissed her again, and this time, Kit couldn’t help but become putty in his massive arms. She parted her lips and let him run his tongue across hers, probing deeper and deeper with each kiss until she found herself running short on air.

Spreading her legs, she placed her knees on either side of his hips, and Cassius moved her so that she was rubbing against his manhood again. The sheath did make a difference, but he still felt heavenly, and when he plunged inside of her, Kit cried out in pleasure. The feel of the water lapping against her breasts as they moved back and forth as one was soothing, and Kit closed her eyes, resting her head on his shoulder.

Cassius took his time, slowly exploring her body with his hands, tracing up and down her sides, her back, gripping her bottom to pull her closer still. His tongue wound its way down her neck finding each nipple in turn and spending an equal amount of time turning them to sensitive peaks.

She breathed him in, relishing each soft touch of his rough hands on her hot skin, keeping her eyes closed to heighten her other senses. It didn’t take him long to bring her to the precipice, but once there, she stayed enraptured for what seemed like an eternity. She felt him tense up beneath her and raised her head to meet his lips as his body quaked and he groaned one last time.

Kit’s tongue continued to tangle with his as the dance went on even though the song had ended. The feel of his warm mouth against hers, his body fitted so neatly into every recess of her being was safe, inviting, comforting in a way she couldn’t express. Letting go meant facing reality again, and she wasn’t ready for that.

But the water began to chill, and she knew she had duties to attend to. Eventually, Kit released him, scooting back slightly so that she could look into his green eyes. “Thank you, Cassius. You were exactly what I needed—you are exactly what I need.”

He smiled at her in a way that let her know he would always be there for her and then gently leaned forward and kissed her forehead. “Come on, Princess. Let’s get you out of here before you start sneezing again.”

As much as she would’ve liked to stay there with him forever, Kit complied. She had a lot to think about. She appreciated having Cassius to help her gain clarity, but the decisions that needed to be made were hers and hers alone.
