Chapter Fifteen

“But there’s no comb.”

Lugus held up his hands and wiggled his fingers. “I’ve got these and you could use a break.”

“All right,” she said and scooted around until her back was to him.

Lugus moved the food to the side and sat cross legged behind her.

“Start at the bottom and work your way up. It’s easier that way.”

He licked his lips and ran his fingers through the bottom of her hair, immediately encountering a knot.

She laughed and reached around for an oat cake. “See?” she said.

He tried to gently work the tangle free and was soon regretting that he offered.

“You need to be more aggressive with the tangle, or it will never unloosen. Besides, you won’t hurt me.”

He was unsure of the last part considering how big some of the tangles were, but he pulled a little hard and was rewarded when the knot gave way.

After that he tackled tangle after tangle until he was nearly to her neck. He ran his fingers from the hair at her neck all the way to the bottom and heard her moan softly.

He never imagined that a woman liked to have hands ran through her hair and just to be sure he had actually heard the moan, he did it again. He was rewarded with another soft moan.

Lugus smiled and continued working out the tangles. It didn’t take him long to work his way to her temples. By the time he was moving his fingers from the crown of her head to the ends, her head was thrown back and the ends brushed his legs.

Time after time he would use both hands to gently pull through the strands, and each time he could visibly see Ahryn relax. He watched as she inhaled sharply when he massaged her scalp, her lips parting and her breasts rising with each breath.

With each run of his fingers, he slowly began to pull Ahryn back against him until she rested her head on one of his shoulders. He knew he shouldn’t tempt himself, but when it came to Ahryn he could never think straight.

Suddenly, her eyes opened, and she looked at him.

His mouth was near hers. All he had to do to taste her sweet lips again was move his head a fraction of an inch. His aching rod begged him to take her, but he didn’t want to break the spell that held her soft body against him. It felt so good to hold her that he was content to do just that.

Lugus was prepared to stay there the entire night, but the black had made its way over and nudged him.

“We’ve tarried here long enough,” Ahryn said as she rose to her feet.

He raised his gaze as he stood and looked at the darkening sky. “I suppose. I know you are anxious to reach the gateway.”

“Just as you are anxious to return to your life.”

Lugus nodded absently. “Have you considered what may happen if we don’t reach the gateway?”

Her hand reached up and cupped his cheek. He looked down to see her searching his face.
