Chapitre 14: Chapter 14

Riftan rained ravenous kisses on her. Caught between the tree trunk and Riftan's torso, Maxi struggled for breath. His hands cupped her rear and pulled her close, his bulge grinding on her belly. Heat ignited between their bodies. Afraid of how she might react, Maxi tried to twist out of his embrace.

"N-No… N-Not here…"

"You'll be the death of me, goddammit."

Groaning, he knocked his head into the tree. Her body tensed at the sight of his shoulders heaving with ragged breaths. She braced herself, thinking that her rebuff had displeased him, but he slowly backed away from her.

"I can't help myself whenever I'm around you, so you should sleep alone in the carriage. Do you understand?"

He patted her cheek lightly. She nodded. Once again, he led her away by the hand, this time back towards the camp. A burly knight sat perched on a rock, warming himself by the fireside rock. When he saw them returning, he flashed them a knowing grin.
