Excerpt: His lips met mine in a fiery kiss filled with passion, exactly how I imagined my first kiss to be. His mouth was rough underneath my soft one, and his earthy taste filled my senses. I moaned into the kiss, and his tongue slid between my lips, discovering more of my mouth, and deepening the kiss. The kiss went on forever, our hands never leaving each other, and our lips fused together with a desperation that took my breath away. I broke off the kiss to take in some much-needed air, but I never let go of him. “Take me. Ruin me for any other man in the world, and make me yours,” I said. The wedding was planned to happen in two days, so I needed him to take my purity so I couldn’t marry the prince. I was already planning to rearrange the wedding so it would be an intimate ceremony between us. “I’ve been yours from the moment I first saw you in the woods,” my Huntsman said. That moment felt like a lifetime ago when I had first fled the castle because my stepmother had tried to kill me. So much had happened since then, but my feelings for him had remained the same. He was the first man to show me compassion, and not be under the spell the evil queen seemed to be able to cast on men. “And I yours. But I need you to take me as only a husband would take his wife so there is no doubt about it that I am yours, forever.” --------- Reader advisory: This story contains explicit sex scenes between two consenting adults.
