Highland Darkness
Page 19
“Ah, amour … I smell your desire from here…. it’s time, come, before my beast breaks free and I plow you hard and fast for the taking.”
Lilith jumped. Fuck. She had forgotten that he was a beast, one who could smell and sense almost everything that touched the wind. She dropped her hand, cheeks ablaze. Surely she resembled a strawberry tart….yeah a tart was about right, Lilith walked the length to Amadeus.
“Never shy away from me, ma cherie,” Amadeus said before kissing her head softly. “Your time here has been an abyss, a highland darkness, you might say.” Lilith watched Amadeus through hooded lashes. “I aim to remedy that,” he said with blatant determination. “But for now, the highlander seeks your whereabouts.”
Lilith wasn’t sure she wanted to leave Amadeus or his quarters. She had questions that needed answering. She felt as if she was missing the biggest part of the picture. “Amadeus … you will tell me more, will you not?” They both paused just short of the bedroom door.
“Of course. Every last detail … soon.” Amadeus pulled Lilith out the door before closing it behind them. He led her through the dimly lit corridor and out of the cellar to where Angus awaited.
The tension in the air was thick, Amadeaus didn’t say another word as he lead her back out on to the field to where she could hear Angus shout endless strings of cusses. “Bring her ter me NOW beast” “Shhh belongs ter me by right” “I’ma gonna kill ya “ as Lilith got closer she could hear the sound of wet slapping noises followed by grunts and whooshes, frowning she tried to hurry her pace to find out exactly what was making that awful noise. “Shee tis mine” “I wilst tear yer walls down” ……”how bout I rip another Mutt apart” wow was that Angus, Lilith could see a colossal of a man caked in mud, blood, and fur welding a frigging scary, long assed Morning Star in his left hand. A Melon sized spiked metal ball attached to a long ass chain mounted to a Celtic design handle. In his right hand he held a sword that resembled a fecking Claymore, what the hell was going on out here, more to the point who the hell stood on Angus’s big toe. “Oh fuck” Although she had just managed to squeak out that little comment, Angus came to a sudden halt while his morning star was whipping around in the air in articulate motions designed by Angus to tear apart his opponent that stood inches from his right, who would be at the death blow of the receiving end of the stick. Angus’s head slashed to the direction of her words, eyes flying to hers Lilith stood with her mouth agape, his eyes blazed quick silver to the point they almost shone blue. Lilly wanted to scream as she watched as the morning star was about to take somebody out of the this deadly game he was playing, as fast as the chain swung it came to a sudden halt, smashing into the earth at Angus’s feet with a quick flick of his wrist.
Now what Lilith thought, was she to just stand there looking dim witted or go to him “Come” is all Angus managed to say his voice nothing but a deep burr, oh shit when did her feet gather the courage to move on their own. Lilith walked the short distance to Angus as he ate up the ground as he strode towards her, without breaking his stride he picked Lilith up throwing her over his shoulder and marching off in the direction of their rooms. Not quite sure if she even made a peep as he carried her away like nothing more than an adolescent needing a reprimand.
Lilly tried to ponder on how best to handle the situation but she kept on coming up blank, it didn’t help when all she could feel was the air being slammed out of her with each stride Angus took, or the feel of his burning skin seeping into her bones, or the jiggling of her ass as he bounded up the stairs.
It wasn’t until Lilith felt the sting of Angus’s hand come down on her backside, did the fog leave her brain “Ouch” “WTF Angus” “Fuck” thank the gods he didn’t throw her half way to China this time around. Setting her on her feet he reached behind her locking the door to his room. “WTF yourself Lassss “Looking her up and down eyes ever so carefully assessing her body, for what who knew “Ye belong ter me lass, now. forever. always” His burr deep, booming, grating on Lilly’s nerve endings, causing her entire body to shudder in utter delight. With that said Angus claimed her lips in a searing, hot, smouldering kiss leaving no room for thought.
