“This is amazing,” she said. “Where are we?”
“It’s a privately-owned nature reserve. We’ve got the place all to ourselves.”
They walked along the walkway to a clearing under the trees that overlooked the lake.
Lann spread the blanket out in the shade and pulled Kat down next to him. “Help me unpack this.”
They took out champagne, fruit, cheese, and a baguette. He handed her two glasses. “Hold this.” He popped the cork and served them.
“Lann, this is the best day of my life. Thank you.”
He brushed a palm over her shoulder. “You’ve been working too hard.” Worry flickered in his eyes. “Been cooped up in the monastery for too long. And you did keep your promise not to fly with anyone else.”
“So, this is my reward?”
“I think your reward will come later.”
“What a lucky girl I am.”
“The luck is all mine, krasavitsa.”
“Are you hungry?”
“For food?” he drawled.
“You’re impossible.” She gave him a stern look and brought a piece of cheese to his lips. “Open.”
He obeyed, sucking her fingers into his mouth. She fed him pieces of fruit and cheese, taking bites in between. When they were both satiated, he got to his feet and started to remove his clothes.
“What are you doing?” she asked with a laugh, looking around, even though she knew they were alone.
“Come swim with me.”
She glanced at the lake. “The water will be freezing.”
“Are you a pussy?”
She gasped. “You didn’t just call me that.”
“Oh, yes, I did.”
She jumped up and discarded her clothes. Before he was out of his pants, she was running stark naked to the water. She gritted her teeth as she entered the icy water up to her ankles. Looking over her shoulder, she saw Lann making his way to the lake with a huge grin on his face. Holding her breath, she charged into the water. It was so cold it felt as if it would stop her heart. She let out a yelp as Lann’s laughter echoed behind her. Taking a deep breath, she dived in and swam with furious strokes in an effort to warm her limbs. When she turned, Lann still stood on the beach.
“Come on!” She beckoned him with a finger. “Or are you a pussy?”
He made big eyes at her. “What did you just call me?”
“I said—”
He made a big show of charging at her, but she managed to splash him before he got his chest wet. He cursed and disappeared under the water to resurface in front of her, grabbing her around her waist when she tried to swim away.
“Not so fast,” he said in a wicked tone.
Turning her to face him, he yanked her against him. His body was warm in the coldness of the water. Already too familiar. Comfortable. She wrapped her arms and legs around him, and held him close. He groaned in response, his erection pressing against her stomach. He wasn’t laughing any longer. He gripped her ass and lifted her slightly so that his cock teased her folds.
The cold water contracted her skin, and when he lifted her higher with one hand while spreading her open with the other, an onslaught of cold water assaulted her swollen clit.
The coldness was replaced with the heat of his body as he lowered her onto his erection, sliding effortlessly into her slickness. She arched back, gasping as he claimed her with every inch he had.
“God, Katherine, I’m buried so deep inside of you,” he said against her neck. He kissed her as if his life depended on it, sucking on her skin and making her moan as he bit down softly.
“You drive me wild.” He planted kisses down her neck to the hollow of her throat, continuing the path to her breasts. He kissed each upper curve before taking a cold, hard nipple into his warm mouth. That felt good. She whimpered when he sucked gently before letting go to move her up and down over his length with his hands around her waist.
“Feel good?” he asked.
“Lann…”
“Tell me, Katherine. Tell me what you want.”
“Everything.” She sighed. “I want everything.”
His voice took on a darker tone. “You don’t know what you’re asking.”
“Then show me.”
He claimed her mouth with hard approval, sweeping his tongue over her lips before drawing the very breath from her. She struggled to inhale through her nose while he plundered her mouth. He kissed her until her body begged for air, but when she pushed on his chest for a pause, he only sealed his lips tighter over hers while thrusting harder and faster. Her clit rubbed against his groin, making pleasure coil around her insides.
When he folded one hand around her neck and gripped her ass in the other, she instinctively clung to him with her arms and legs. He tightened his fingers around her throat, applying gentle pressure. Sensations slammed into her as he squeezed, cutting off her oxygen. Before she had time to process what was happening, she felt a finger rubbing down her cleft, and then she felt it there.
