Chapter 49: Bright Future

Lilia POV

Yawning, Lilia sat drinking Tulaska’s bitterroot tea and relaxing on the blue velvet divan in the bedroom she shared with Dane. Ready for bed after a family evening one day after Ravyn’s and Anneliese’s arrival, she awaited Dane with her pulse racing. She wore her robe, the better to have him remove it.

No matter how often they’d made love in the last several days, her body still tingled, thinking of his bewitching touch and finding new ways to make him melt. Being pregnant made her want him more, and made her feel closer to him during each wonderful joining. How was it possible to be so completely one with someone?

When she got further along in her pregnancy, she wouldn’t feel this amorous. Best to take advantage of this time together and her increased desire. He’d made very specific promises about what he wanted to do with her tonight, and she could feel her already sensitive nipples responding, just thinking about what Dane had planned.
