Perhaps it was the foolish achievement. Perhaps the warm acclamation. Or even the pride in her husband’s face. For whatever reason Elizabeth opened her arms and her bed to her lord with a rare confidence and a light spirit. When he offered to demonstrate the accuracy of his own aim in fields other than archery, she encouraged him without reticence. Under the slyly skilful investigations of his hands and his mouth she discovered a whole tapestry of sensation of which she had no experience, and a lack of control that was un thinkable. Immediately, she struggled to free herself.

‘No! You must stop…’

‘Not in this life. You might even enjoy it.’ Richard’s tongue continued to slide along the edge of her collar bone to the swell of her breasts where he lapped at the swelling peak of a nipple. As for his finger tips—they knew no limitations as they dipped and tasted the dark wet heat between her thighs.

‘I might…’ If she had but known what it was. Elizabeth held her breath as his teeth grazed along the soft skin of her belly. Her fingernails scored into his shoulders as she clung on.

‘Unknown territory,’ Richard murmured, his breath heating her skin, setting off little ripples. ‘Look on it as an adventure. Afraid, Elizabeth?’

‘No. Never…’

And Elizabeth found herself driven to grasp Richard’s long-suffering shoulders even more fiercely as the shivers built in her belly, hot and sweet, to explode with bright light, like the tinted illustration of a shooting-star in one of Jane Bringsty’s more questionable documents, all fire and sparkle.

‘Oh!’

‘A true under statement,’ Richard remarked on a ghost of a laugh, still holding her safe, close guarded, as the tremors died away. Then with breathtaking speed he moved so that his body pinned her to the bed and she could not wriggle and escape. Not that she had the energy to do so until she re covered from the glory of it.

‘You look very smug.’ Elizabeth informed him, still shivering with the splendour of her discovery. His lips curved, his eyes gleaming in the soft darkness.

‘So I do.’ He pressed his smiling mouth to the shallow valley between her breasts. ‘And now, my Amazon, you can use your womanly wiles to torture me beyond bearing.’

Elizabeth did so, with most satisfying results, overcome with her new-found confidence. Whilst Richard, roused and pain fully ready, surrounded by her, driven to shattering completion by her, could only marvel at the depth of desire this complex woman distilled in him.
