The Devil's Betrothed novel Chapter 763

Chapter 763: Shared Intimacy

Lucian watched her as she stood with her back to him. He could tell she was nervous and embarrassed.

Erin felt as if her heart might burst out of her chest, it was beating so loudly. The next moment, her body froze when a pair of strong arms wrapped around her, and the warm, firm chest of a man pressed against her cold back. She shut her eyes tightly, trying to steady herself.

Lucian’s hands rested around her flat stomach, which she had instinctively sucked in due to the butterflies swirling within her. He leaned down, planting gentle kisses along her nape. Her slender and delicate body felt perfect in his embrace, as if made to fit against him.

"Don’t be nervous. I won’t do anything that you don’t want me to," his low, husky voice murmured next to her ear, the warmth of his breath sending shivers down her spine.

Erin’s breath hitched as Lucian’s warm hands slowly moved along her stomach, his fingers moving along her belly. His touch firm yet gentle, sending ripples of heat through her. She didn’t dare open her eyes, as everything felt just so overwhelming.

His lips continued to press soft, lingering kisses along her neck and shoulder. One of his hands gently cupped her chin, tilting her head to the side so he could kiss her lips.

Lucian turned her around slowly, his lips never leaving hers. Her bare body pressed against his, her hands found their way to his bare chest, her fingers nervously tracing the contours of his muscles, feeling the steady rhythm of his heartbeat beneath her touch.

The confidence in his actions reassured her, slowly melting away the nervousness that had initially gripped her. After a while he let her go and watched her flushed face once more, his gaze darkened with the desire to see her in such a vulnerable condition. It only made him want to claim her as his.

Gently and careful he lifted her in his arms to place her on the bed, while Erin didn’t dare look into his eyes. All she wanted was to hide her naked body from his gaze.

As she lay back, her eyes met his intense ones, almost making her forget to breathe.

Lucian climbed the bed and pulled the blanket over both of them as he didn’t wish to her to feel the cold anymore. He could see her body trembling due to cold.

Under the blanket, he hovered over her, his strong arms braced on either side, caging her gently beneath him. His eyes locked onto hers, their intensity sending shivers down her spine. His bare skin radiated warmth, the contrast against her cool, exposed body making her acutely aware of every inch of him.

"Are you cold?" he asked, looking into her nervous eyes closely.

She shook her head, as she felt better now. She didn’t have courage to say the warmth from him was enough to make her feel warm.

"Soon, you won’t be cold anymore," he said, only to see her already red face turn embarrassed. She knew the meaning of it.

He lowered himself, his lips capturing hers in a kiss that was unhurried yet filled with passion. His hands, firm but tender, traced along her sides, caressing her curves as if committing them to memory.

Though hesitant, Erin’s arms having the mind of their own wrapped around his back, her fingers tracing the taut lines of his muscles, pulling him closer.

Lucian’s lips trailed down her neck, leaving a path of warmth and desire, his warm breath burning against her skin.

Erin could not help but let out soft moans, letting go of any reservation she felt. He was making her feel which she had only read in the books and she could not deny it definitely felt heavenly, something only he could make her feel.

Lucian’s hands gripped her soft and perfect mounds, that pulled her out of her thoughts. Her hands involuntarily moved to the back of his head, arching her back at what his unruly mouth was doing to her.

She had never expected that this man calm like a still water would be this skilled and passionate. He had no retrained left in his as well. She could hear the soft satisfied groans from him.

He moved further down, the blanket covering them sliding along him, exposing her body, but she no longer felt cold at all.

Loud gasp left her mouth the moment she felt him between her legs, his mouth savouring her with intense passion. Her hand gripped the sheets as her body was feeling overwhelmed with those new sensation she was feeling.

This was embarrassing, yet, something she didn’t want to stop anymore.
