Chapter Twenty-One

Eva had finally reached the end of her grand plan. She stood waiting by the stone, basking in her victory. She’d gotten Finn to dance with her, and she’d worn the gown so that she could spend more time with him. And maybe steal another kiss.

Alright, definitely steal another kiss.

A shiver of excitement ran down her spine as she thought about their last kiss. Surely there was no harm in kissing, right? Plenty of women kissed men and didn’t marry them. She even knew a few who’d had babes with men and not married them. The church had several things to say about that, but most people went by the Brehon law, the laws that had been laid down generations ago, laws made by the ancestors of the lands in order to protect future generations. Even the local priests knew it, and many were supportive of the old ways of doing things.

So, really, there was nothing wrong with enjoying her kisses with Finn.

Unless Finn thought she intended to court him.

Eva swallowed hard. She absolutely couldn’t marry him, which meant she had no business courting him.

The sound of footsteps coming down the path set butterflies off in her stomach, a regular occurrence when Finn appeared.

Lord, but he was handsome. He walked to her and offered her his arm without a word. His eyes were sapphires in firelight, burning the same bright blue as the hottest flames.

When they reached the lakeshore, he pulled her into his arms.

“You have to stop wearing that dress,” he whispered, his hot breath sending shivers down her back. He leaned forward, their faces touching.

“I don’t know why I would,” she replied. “It seems to be working.”

He grinned, his dimple sending a wave of tightness to her belly. “What exactly is it you want?”

Eva’s heart raced in anticipation. “Another kiss.”

His lips took hers, crashing against her as waves upon the shoreline.

It felt so good to be in his arms again. The world disappeared around them as Eva sank deeper into his embrace. She met his kiss, opening up to him in a way she never imagined possible.

His arms tightened around her, guiding her to lay on the sandy shore, his body covering hers in hardness and heat.

The scent of pine and him surrounded her, a delicious smell she couldn’t define but that melted her every time he came near.

Finn’s lips left hers, instead winding a searing path down her jaw to her neck. She couldn’t believe how good it felt to be in his arms. Or that she had ever decided she didn’t want this in her life.

As he continued to her shoulder, his hands ran from her hips to her chest. Slowly. Far too slowly. Eva arched her back, encouraging him to continue his exploration. Finn slid the neck of her dress over her shoulder, exposing her breasts.

His mouth covered her nipple, creating an uncomfortable ache between her legs. Eva gasped at the sensations in every part of her body. She felt Finn smile as he continued sucking and teasing her.
