Chapter 10
“Braden,” Maggie called. “I need you. Help!”
Braden paused at the plea, amazed by it.
It had been nearly an hour since they had lost sight of Maggie in the dark forest. Yet they had known the entire time she wasn’t too far ahead of them because her angry, often derogatory tirade against men in general, and Braden in particular, had kept them highly amused.
“Braden, please!”
It must have cost her dearly to utter those words after the large amount of condemnation she had heaped upon him, his hide, his soul and every human being who had ever met him.
Normally such a plea from a woman would have him rushing to her side. However, Maggie’s tone was too rational for her to be in any real danger. It sounded more as if she were merely annoyed.
Resuming his walk over the peat-covered path, Braden looked at Sin. “Did we not hear her say, several hundred times in the last hour, ‘Men, who needs them?’”
“That we did.”
“Think we should ignore her cry, then?” Braden asked.
The baffled frown on Sin’s face was priceless.
Braden chucked Sin on the arm. “I’m jesting. You know I would never leave a woman in distress.”
“ ‘Tis what I thought, but you looked a little too sincere just now.”
And for a fraction of an instant, Braden had considered ignoring her. Especially given the severity of some of her curses. God help him if any of them ever came true. Why, he’d be a two-headed, three-toed, monkey-nosed, blind son of a cesspit-licking lackey if she had her way.
But, in spite of her uncharitable remarks, he couldn’t leave her in whatever condition she was currently in.
All in all, as much as he hated to admit it, he actually liked the hellion.
“Braden!”
“I’m coming,” he assured her, stepping around a large shrub to see her…
Braden froze. Not even in his wildest imaginings had he thought to see her like that!
Her posterior wiggling and thrusting about rather provocatively, she lay bent over. And heaven help him, but it looked as if she were battling the very forest, or at least the hapless shrub in front of her.
Sin burst out laughing.
Braden probably would have laughed too, had a breeze not ruffled up the hem of her plaid, gifting him with a bountiful sight of her creamy buttocks. As well as a glimpse of other things that stirred a man’s interest and loins.
Desire flooded through him, sending a painful throb straight to his groin.
The lass truly had a beguiling bottom. One of tempting proportions that would contour just perfectly to his body. And in that instant, he swore he could feel the softness of her thighs in his palm, hear her moaning as he buried himself deep inside her over and over again until they both cried out in blissful release.
Braden ground his teeth as his need for her flamed so hot that for a moment it rendered him immobile.
“It’s not funny!” Maggie snapped, trying to pull herself out of the tangle of brush and limbs. All she succeeded in doing was baring more of her backside to him.
