She heard Joshua gasp and moan into her hair as she pressed back against him. She had never known such intense
,
all
consuming rapture existed as the very moment
that
his hands closed around her breasts! And what were those strange, demanding sensations that seemed to be pulsing and vibrating through her lower anatomy?
Her head fell limply on Joshua’s shoulder as a soft moan of sheer
,
uninhibited ecstasy flowed
from her parted lips, making her wish
his hands would remain on her breasts
at least until the
morning
sun peeked through the window
. Then, she felt herself being spun around
in his arms and his soft
lips lowered to hers. Pleasure took on new heights as their lips met ever so sweetly in a kiss that she felt
in the very pit of her stomach. One hand moved to her midsection,
afraid
that
she would soon be beset by her monthly spell of painful cramps. What else could cause such fluttering in the space between her legs?
His hands slid over her flat stomach
,
causing every muscle in her body to tense with pleasure, then he slowly caressed her hips and buttocks before coming to rest on her heaving breasts. Oh, it was the most marvelous feeling to have his hands there, but then when they had wandered around her hips
, she had wanted
them to remain in that general are
a a little longer as well. S
he fervently wished he had more hands!
Joshua bent to slide her
gown to the floor and Lynna watched, her scrambled brain in a state of flux, as he kissed his way up
her legs, pausing to kiss the
juncture where the two met. This was more than her senses could comprehend. She clutched his head between her hands and moved back to sit on the bed. She watched a slow smile spread across Joshua’s handsome features as he gently pushed her back on the bed
. He then stood
and, seemingly not in the least embarrassed or shy, removed his clothes. Lynna’s eyes traveled leisurely over the width of his broad shoulders, down across his muscular chest and flat stomach. And, oh! Good h
eavens! That was
a sobering sight!
A startled wheeze escaped her when
he
was fully exposed to her widening eyes. She knew some of what happened between a man and woman behind closed doors, but she
didn’t
know if it was all true or just Gertrude spinning another one of her yarns. All Lynna knew for sure at that moment was an unquenchable desire and she could only imagine that
that
part of him would somehow be used
to serve the purpose.
However, she
was
also
firmly convinced that in no way would her tiny body be able to accommodate …it. Good heavens! If only her head would stop spinning and she could decide which of the two Captains was the real one
,
perhaps she co
uld decide what to do about this predicament
.
She accidentally glanced down again and the sheer enormity of the thing
horrified her. “But it… is so…
” she stammered, at a loss for words. She was unable to finish the sentence as fear suddenly took a strong hold of her, and she felt like a cornered rabbit about to be devoured by a voracious fox.
She hiccupped loudly as Joshua lay down beside her
,
and caressing her face
,
whispered, “Do not be frightened, my sweet. I will not do anything that you
don’
t
wish me to.” She relax
ed and smiled. Then Joshua brought
his mouth
down
to hers to drink deeply
from her lips and eased
her gown from her shoulders. As he did
, he stroked
the inside of her lips with his tongue until her head fell back and her mouth opened to him.
Hot liquid fire coursed through Lynna's veins. What were these unique and startling sensations? Why did she wish to cry out at the loss of his lips as they left a burning trail down her throat and over the pulsing hollow between her breasts? Then his moist lips slid over her flushed skin to rest on the peak of her breast. In that moment she was sure, the heavens came down to earth for a short respite!
His tongue on the sensitive area sent flames fanning out in all directions. As his soft lips devoted undivided attention to her breast, her mind centered around the intensifying need that threatened at any second to explode.
W
hen the explosion finally came
,
she had to wonder
what would happe
n to the charred remains of her
insides?
He continued his lustful assault
,
running his tongue along the tender underside of her breast, sending shivers of pure bliss coursing through her until she thought she would go mad from the sensual torture. When she could stand it no longer
,
she took his head between her hands and returned it to her swollen peak.
“Oh, Captain Jordan!” she whimpered, afraid of the magnitude of feelings that were fast overtaking her.
He removed his lips long enough to murmur, “Would you agree that under our present circumstances you may forgo the formalities and call me Joshua?”
She was unable to answer as the ache inside her intensified and she writhed on the bed in search of …what? Her legs fell open of their own accord
,
wanting, needing, and searching.
Joshua moved atop her as his swollen member pressed against her thigh. As he did this
,
Lynna could not suppress a horrified gasp. Even though her mind was terribly fuzzy
,
she realized that evidently Gertrude had been accurate on that point. But surely he could not mean to do that! Why, it was out of the question! Impossible
! The mere thought was insane
! She would be split asunder! “
Non
!
Captain Jordan, you cannot possibly think to…”
“Why, my sweet?” Joshua soothed, crawling between her quivering thighs and successfully kissing away her cries. “I will not hurt you. You have my word.”
“How can it not hurt?”
Was the dear man demented?
Of course such torture would be unendurable. Why
,
she could not possibl
y
be expected to survive such a flagrant act of brutality
,
she reasoned, even as her traitorous legs surrendered beneath him.
“
Do not be afraid
, Lynna,” he soothed
,
as his li
ps again found hers.
“Do you promise not to hurt me?” she whispered, g
azing at him with large, questioning
eyes. Lynna could not credit that she would even entertain the thought of agreeing to a notion as absurd as the one he was proposing. “Will you cease if it hurts?”
“Of course I will. All you need do is ask.”
She trusted him on that point. Her father had hired dozens of investigators and had been repeatedly assured
that
the Captain was most trustworthy. “Will the pain be intolerable?”
“It may hurt a bit at first, but afterwards
,
you will never feel pain again, only pleasure. That I can promise you, my sweet.”
If her father had faith in this man, so could sh
e. “I trust you, Captain Jordan.” She
smiled bravely
,
even as her muscles tensed into tight knots beneath him.
“Trust?” Joshua groaned, suddenly pulling away from her
like her touch
had burned him
. “Why did you have to use that word? Your father trusted me and here I am
,
about to ravish h
is daughter. Of all the low
, despicabl
e, vile acts..
. I cannot believe I could sink so low…
Having little patience for his delayed chivalry, and desiring that Joshua continue what they were doing, Lynna rea
ched over and stopped his tirade
with her lips on his. “Please stop talking, Joshua.”
He obeyed her without question as his hands explored the smooth contours of her body and his lips again descended to hers. She returned his kiss with an ardor equivalent to his own. He stroked every silken inch of her body as his mouth placed feathery kisses where his hands had been until her muscles relaxed.
Lynna felt the heat of him between her legs and took a deep breath as he barely entered her. She
could not
suppress a moan as tiny ripples of pleas
ure fanned out from her loins and s
he began to move against the heat as her legs sp
read wider,
wanting all that he had to offer. Everything. Somehow she instinctively knew there had to be more and she wanted it, desperately. Quickly. Clutching his hips
,
she pressed her body upward, her soft breasts crushing against the fur of his chest as he buried himse
lf deep inside her and a
scream tore from her lips.
“I’
m sorry, my sweet! There will be no more pain, I promise!
”
As he was apologizing
,
the pain in Lyn
n
a's body slowly subsided and gave way once again to desire. Her slim arms moved up to close around the muscles of his waist and draw him
even
deep
er
inside her smooth, tight warmth.
The ecstasy that swept over her in that moment, she was sure, would never be duplicated. As he began to move inside her, Lynna's body picked up the rhythm, rising to meet his every thrust, molding her body to fit perfectly to his. His hand on her buttocks squeezed her even closer still until she thought surely her next breath might be her last.
Then, it happened! Her insides melted like butter under the summer sun and the sweetest bliss surged through every part of her limp, lifeless body. She thought surely she must be leaving this earth and was being whisked off to another place and time!
Then a
sob escaped as powerful, deep contractions seemed to wrap her more tightly around Joshua and she breathed his name.
Later, when Lynna found the energy to speak, she whispered,
“Oh, Joshua, that was without doubt the most amazing expe
rience of my entire life!” She
raised up on her elbow and smiled a beaming smile that put forth more light than the flickering candle. “Can you perhaps make it happen again before the ship docks in America?”
“Definitely, my sweet. It will most assuredly happen again, numerous times, before the ship docks. In fact, if you are agreeable
,
it can happen again right now.”
Lynna cupped his chin in her hands and placed an inexperienced, yet superlative kiss on his inviting lips and then promptly passed out cold.
Chapter Three
L
ynna's first day at sea daw
ned clear and bright with white
fluffy clouds prancing acr
oss the sky. Dressed in a fashionable day dress
of aqua silk, with a matching ribbon in her hair, she strolled the deck after a light breakfast of fruit and coffee. Leaning against the mahogany rail
,
she breathed deeply of the salty sea air.
“A
n
enchanting young lady should never be without an escort.”
Startled, Lynna turned to find a rather han
dsome young dandy with a sunny smile
watching her intently. He was about the same height as the Captain, but with a much slighter build and by no means as attractive. His auburn hair shone in the sunlight as his eyes traversed the entire length of her body.
