Charles pulled his shirt over his head and Beth was privy to his bare body. He was well-built and she again was reminded of how much his clothes hid away.. Her hands lifted of their own accord and came to rest on his chest.Beth had seen him before but she had been under the influence of alcohol, she was not sure she had studied him so intently. He was so masculine and firm.Her hands travelled his body and he waited, standing evenly still as her gaze moved slowly over him and her hands did the same. She touched the square of his muscles and tendons of his stomach, surprised he had no fat to spare.Beth was admiring him as he had admired her. She was completely mesmerized by him and was unashamed. His chest was broad and dusted with dark hair. Her trip ended by the tip of his trousers and returned to his chest. She dared herself and kissed him on his left breast.He moaned.Surprised by the sound, she glanced up and found that he had closed his eyes. The invitation was clear and compe

She said, chuckling, tears in her eyes.Charles felt his heart expand.Beth was a force, and like a ship hit by a massive wave, he was thrown out of balance, cursed to drift upon her feisty waters. He did not hate it.When her convulsion ended, he felt her still pulsing against him. "Bethany.""Charles…" She mewled, giving him the most seductive smile he had ever seen. Red passion blinded him. He was not done and neither was she.Still joined with her, he carried her from the table, placing his hands firmly on her buttocks. She yelped when they crashed onto the bed, his body covering hers."You are the greatest thing to have ever happened to me." He declared.The tears made her eyes glisten. She raised her head and kissed him. He began to move.She gasped with pleasure.His lips tugged against hers.Charles's hand found her breast and he
LOVING HER DUKE The Morning After
Charles opened his eyes to the most beautiful sight he could ever imagine – Beth in his arms.She had her hand flung carelessly over his abdomen and her beautiful face pressed to his naked chest. One of his hands was wrapped around her waist and it felt like the rightest thing in the world.His heart soared.She was here. Beth was here in his arms and he was never letting her go. He would no more ask to touch her, nor wish he could. She was his wife and his lover now. She was his and he was hers.The morning sun was streaming into the room through the tiny opening as best as it could, as no one had dared to come to pull the curtains. The bed cover was up to their waist but no higher. All was suddenly so perfect with the world.'She was the most perfect person in the world.' Charles thought, his heart giddy. He inhaled her scent and felt his heart expanding. Lightly, he caressed her face and played with her hair.Many nights he had laid in bed, sleep driven from him, thinking what she
LOVING HER DUKE Trouble In Paradise?
Beth immediately understood her worries. Lady Marjorie worried she might be leaving Charles. She would never. "Yes, I have, and Charles has agreed to it."A pause. "Charles? You call him affectionately now." Her hand went to Beth's face. She smiled. "I had not mentioned the glow you have as I did not want to pry, but I must now." She leaned forward and whispered, her brows furrowed. "All is well between you and him?"Beth's smile deepened as her heart rejoiced. She had never been happier than she was at the moment. Her husband was the kindest of men and the most patient. He was a wonderful man and a wonderful lover. She was surprised and ecstatic to find that there was a part of him that wanted her. A mighty part."All has never been better, Lady Marjorie." She replied, choosing to indulge the woman. Beth did not think she could call her Mother, but she could do away with the excess civilities.It gladdened the older woman.Lady Marjorie gaped, astonished, then burst out laughing. She
LOVING HER DUKE Reassure Me, Charles
He noticed her hesitation, and how fixed her smile was. His heart was scared. "Evening Beth.""How has your day been?""Good." His morning had been excellent. Charles hoped his night would not become the opposite."Lovely. I would like to have a word with you."He nodded that she continued, but she would not speak, rather, she remained by the door, gaping at him, leaving him to wonder the state of his face.Her expression was odd and she appeared troubled. For a moment Charles didn't recognize her, standing there almost a stranger. She stood as the woman he had met when he came to Westside Manor, not the one who had erupted from intense ecstasy in his arms the night before.Was she about to utter words to ruin their day? Their lives? He wouldn't allow her; he had made a promise to them. He would not stand on the bylines and watch things go up in flames, again. And he would not let her go, even if they disagreed.Charles waited patiently and when he could no more, he beckoned to her. "
LOVING HER DUKE In His Arms
Charles's blood boiled and he became impatient as well. Keeping his eyes on hers, he sent his hand between them to stroke his erection and slowly eased it into her swollen sex. She gasped, welcoming him with a smile. He was maddened.Her hands remained on his shoulders and her grip became tight when he pulled her closer, helping her take all of him and stretching her, filling her to the brim.Charles waited for her to become used to the invasion before he encouraged her to move. Shyly, she moved at first, then purposefully, then with vigour. His hands held her waist, stationing her. Her bobbing breasts dangled before his face and he was torn if to favour them with his tongue or simply watch them. He gave in.Claiming one nipple with his mouth, he sucked hard. Beth tightened her hold on him, crying out softly. She arched her back and he felt her spiralling towards rapture. There was so much pleasure and so much urgency he could not stand it.Her walls clenched and she quivered. Charles
LOVING HER DUKE Visiting Westside Manor
January 1827Christmas day came and went along as did the New Year's day celebration. It was all a jumble of emotions for Beth that she felt faint a few times. Many families sent them their best wishes and Lady Marjorie sent elaborate gifts and even more elaborate bouquets of flowers.At Charles's request, they declined all invitations and spent the days together. On the eve of the new year, Charles gave her a gift, and at the stroke of midnight, as they stood on the balcony, he kissed her. It was real and equally overwhelming.The few days they had before he left to show his allegiance to the King and the kingdom were filled with duties and preparations. Charles was constantly out of the mansion, preparing for his trip – as he would call it – and Beth worked together with the men at the building site, managing as well as she could before her visit to Westside Manor. They worked hard all day, but the nights were filled with intense and passionate lovemaking.There existed between them
LOVING HER DUKE In The Marble Room
He kissed the crown of her head and she leaned back, coming to kiss him softly on the cheek. Because her tears stained his cheek, she wiped it, as well as hers. He smiled. "I can never begin to tell how much I have missed you. Gwen has been harder to handle without your help."Beth burst into a hearty laughter. "I am certain she has."Her father waved the others forward. Then, he invited. "Come, we should eat. Your mother had guinea hen with apricot stuffing made, and Grace has been fussing even if she would never tell.""God forbid we think her too soft." Beth teased, clinging onto her father's arm.The women at the bottom of the stairs climbed up to join them and they entered the house. Gwen and Lucy held onto their mother on each side.Beth smiled feeling warm and tired but happy. Nothing had changed, she was still the daughter of Radclyffe and Victoria Fitzgerald and would remain so come what may.She had regained her family's love.She had indeed made the perfect circle.* * *"Y
