Chapter 11 Rhianelle

Things have been surprisingly comfortable between me and Svenn lately. It’s the little things that I noticed first. Like he lets me walk two steps ahead of him so our pace would match. Sometimes it even feels like he adores me. But maybe that is just wishful thinking on my part.

I can’t forget the way sunlight shone on his broad shoulders after our sword practice earlier. Why did he have to train with me without his shirt today? Now I have to take this shower to calm myself.

I let the frigid water run over me, soothing the exhaustion and the desire heating my skin. It’s failing miserably at the latter.

I dress into my nightgown quickly to prepare for bed. My face is still flustered when I glance at myself in the mirror. I wash it quickly with cold water to make sure it disappears. But the blush remains long after I wiped my face dry.

I guess it’s here to stay then…

The bathroom door slowly swings open. My heart nearly pounds its way out of my chest when Svenn strides in.

“There’s a perfectly good bath chamber in your own room,” I say, backing my body against the sink counter.

The guilt playing on his face is honest and sincere. “The door was open. I didn’t think anyone was inside.”

Right… I forgot that I am silent sometimes. It’s a force of habit I’ve developed to survive Astefar.

The expansive bathroom seems to shrink in his presence. He closes the remaining distance between us in the blink of an eye. A predator going in for the kill.

“What do you think you’re doing?” My heart stutters in my chest.

He makes a slow gaze from my lips to my breast, then moving downwards to my waist and hips. Svenn is looking at me like he wants to eat me.

“Nel, what did I tell you about prey-like behavior?” he says gruffly.

“I didn’t run.” I swallow my dry throat.

“This dress is prey-like behavior.” His voice ricochets through me.

It’s a nightgown, I almost quip back.

The air around us thickens, becoming charged with each passing second. His dark eyes continue to travel over my body like a phantom caress.

Then slowly, his fingers follow his gaze. His knuckles trace my jaw and collarbone, sending shivers down my spine. They move lower, leaving a trail of goosebumps in their wake. A forbidden feeling thunders through me at the touch. I want to feel his hands on me everywhere.

He stares down at me, his eyes darkening with desire. They’re unfocussed, as if he’s in a trance. His hand lingers long on my belly, bunching my dress there.

Heavens above.

I forgot.

No. No. No.

My nightgown is sheer gossamer. He’ll see the Rhunhraefn and I’ll feel like garbage again.

But Svenn doesn’t stop.

He hooks his hand around my waist, pulling me close to him. I gasp at the feel of his erection, stiff against my stomach.

My breasts are pressed up against his hard, chiseled abdomen. I rake my hand up his chest because I can’t help it. A soft groan of delight leaves him, the sound vibrating through my body.
