Eliza wouldn’t allow her sensibilities or society’s structures to dictate whether she wished to be with him. It may be wanton, but it didn’t matter. In James’ eyes, she was still every bit as lovely as she had once been—possibly more so now.
Pushing back from his kiss, Eliza allowed her dress to fall from her shoulders to pool around her ankles.
James’ eyes darkened as he took in her lovely body. The time apart had caused her to go from a girl on the cusp of womanhood into a full-blooded siren. Her curvy hips and small waist had him salivating.
As if he couldn’t help himself. James fell to his knees, pressing a kiss on her pussy. He then helped to balance her so that he could lift one leg over his shoulder and open her sweet core more fully to him. The smell of her arousal was enough to cause his cock to jerk in his pants. The woman was his weakness.
He licked her folds, loving the sound of her gasps and moans. Her hands sank into his hair and she pulled mindlessly as he licked and sucked her pussy until she was writhing and struggling to stand.
It didn’t take long before he stood and picked her up. She cried out at the loss of his mouth on her pussy. But she didn’t have to wait long. This time James placed both of her legs over his shoulders. Picking up her ass, he buried his face into her wet heat.
Sucking hard on her clit, he began a rhythm. Licking and sucking, only to come back and swirl his tongue around her tender nub. Two fingers went inside her pussy and stroked her.
The moment his fingers entered her; Eliza knew that she wasn’t going to last. His continual onslaught of her sex was almost more than she could bear.
Suddenly things began to tighten, and she knew that her release was imminent. She was climbing, struggling, clawing her way toward the precipice and then suddenly she was free. Her body convulsed as wave after wave of pleasure washed through her.
James never let up, causing one orgasm to slide into another. By the time he lifted his head, Eliza was near to tears of sheer pleasure. Never in her life had she known it could be like that between a man and a woman. He had been a boy before, that much was sure. The man in front of her had confidence and knew just what to do.
James reached behind him, grabbing the collar of his shirt and yanking it over his head. His breeches were soon to follow, and then he was gloriously naked.
Eliza’s eyes grazed over every inch of his muscular frame, from his broad shoulders and strong chest to his flat stomach and narrow hips. Her eyes automatically went to the chiseled vee that led to an impressive erection.
She hadn’t even known that she’d gasped until she heard James’ low chuckle. The masculine smirk on his face was enough to bring her back to her senses.
“Rather impressed with yourself, aren’t you?”
James grinned, saying, “Admit it, love, you enjoy the view.”
She tapped her lip, considering, but let out a squeal of laughter when he scooped her into his arms. Suddenly his lips were on hers and she tasted the faint hint of her musk on his tongue. He was relentless, his hands gently laying her onto the bed and then he was climbing over her.
His fingers sought the plumpness of her breasts, pinching and teasing her nipples until she was once again hungry for more. His mouth roamed from her mouth to her neck and then moved lower. Replacing his fingers with his mouth, he flicked and sucked her tits, driving her wild.
His hands roamed down her body until he reached her center. Eliza eagerly opened her legs and moaned, arching up to meet his questing fingers. They thrust inside of her, sliding back and forth in rhythm with the sucks of his mouth. Eliza was caught in a maelstrom of pleasure, but as much as she was loving every minute of his lovemaking, Eliza wanted his thick cock to be inside of her.
“Please,” she begged. “I need you, now.”
“What do you need?” he asked against her hot skin.
“I need you to lay with me,” she said breathlessly.
He laughed and then nipped at her skin, causing her to squeal. “I am laying with you. That isn’t what you need. Tell me, Lizzie, tell me what you need.”
“I need your cock,” she said breathlessly.
James growled as he moved up to whisper in her ear, “My cock needs you too, Lizzie. But what do you want me to do?”
“Fuck me,” she begged. “Please fuck me!”
“With pleasure,” James answered, coming to his knees. Then he slid his hands up the back of her thighs and pulled her closer so that his cock could rub against her clit.
Eliza grasped at the sheets. “Please stop teasing me.”
With a thrust he sank inside of her, the burning heat combined with the rush of pleasure, causing them both to shudder. James was unable to hold back; it had been too long, and it felt too good. James began thrusting in and out, over and over, loving the sounds that she made as she chased her pleasure.
“This,” he gasped, thrusting hard, “This is how it is supposed to be. You and me, Lizzie.”
Eliza could hardly contain the emotions that were roiling inside of her. The thrill of James making love to her, the knowledge that he hadn’t abandoned her, and the truth that they were finally together. It was overwhelming; her heart was near bursting.
James lifted her leg and began to thrust deeper, her breasts bouncing with every thrust. The pleasure that had been climbing was near its breaking point. She was so close. Moving her hand to her clit, she began to rub it furiously as James fucked her.
“Fuck yes,” he growled. “Touch yourself, Lizzie. Show me what you like.”
Her orgasm washed over her, tightening her nipples to hard points and causing her toes to curl. The moment she released, James was helpless not to follow. He cried out her name as he filled her, his body bowing over her as he came harder than he had ever come before.
James slumped against her, not wanting to smash Eliza, but his energy was clearly spent.
When he managed to roll to the side, he saw the tears on her cheeks.
“Love, what is it?”
His tender question caused Eliza’s tears to come faster. “I never thought I would be with you like this again. I had given up on happiness. The most I could hope for was starting over in the colonies. Then you came along and suddenly everything is different. I am scared that I will wake up and this will all be a dream.”
James kissed her forehead, gathering her close. “Lizzie, I am so sorry, so very sorry.”
She turned into his embrace, reveling in the warmth of his body, until the tears stopped, and her breathing evened out.
James held her, not feeling tired. He ought to go above deck and check on the crew. But he couldn’t seem to let her go. Kissing her temple, he whispered, “We will never be parted again.”
Chapter 8
Eliza awakened the next morning alone, but with the memory of James holding her close through the night. As she reached up to feel his spot was still warm, she encountered a slip of paper.
Dearest Lizzie,
You have grown more beautiful with every moment we have been apart. I wish that I could stay all day in bed with you, but alas, someone has to lead this crew. I will send Tony to amuse you but know that you are never far from my thoughts.
Love,
James
“Rather touching, don’t you think?”
Eliza clutched the sheet to her chest, feeling revulsion wash over her. “What are you doing here, Bones?”
The older man smiled, his gray teeth causing Eliza’s stomach to turn. “Maybe the Captain sent me?”
Eliza shook her head, saying, “James would never send you to me. Where is Tony?”
His brows snapped together, and he eyed her, considering. Then with a filthy hand, he reached out and traced her cheek. “Why wouldn’t he? I am a trusted member of his crew, aren’t I? We share all of our treasures and bounty. Maybe it’s time for me to have a part of your luscious body.”
Eliza scrambled backward on the bed, screaming out, “James! James!”
“Do you think he
can hear you above the roar of the waves? You stupid girl. Or are you afraid that I can’t afford you? What was your going rate at the brothel?”
“Nothing you could afford.” The deep voice from the doorway had Eliza’s eyes flashing from Bones to James. His posture was rigid, his eyes ablaze with fury, his pistol pointed directly at Bones’ heart.
“Come on now, Captain. You can’t be angry. We share all treasure; that was your promise. Are you expecting the crew to just sit back and listen to you fuck your whore? Where is the fairness in that? You asked us to sail to England to pick up the chit. Now we should reap the rewards.”
James, having had enough of Bones’ chatter, fired the pistol. The loud sound reverberated through the small cabin as the smell of gunpowder filled the air. Bones clutched his chest, a look of complete shock on his face.
He slumped and began to slip toward the floor. When he spoke, there was blood on his lips. “You shot me?”
“I would kill you a hundred times for ever speaking that way about the woman I love. I warned you, Bones. I warned everyone that they were not to go near her.”
Tony forced his way into the room, pushing James to the side. With two black eyes and a bloody mouth, Tony clearly showed evidence of a scuffle with Bones. “Is she alright?”
“I am fine,” Eliza replied, and she was fine despite the attack that Bones had planned.
Tony spat some blood out. “He hit me from behind. There were two more that were in on it. They had me tied in the bulkhead. Thank heavens Abe heard me thrashing about.”
James moved toward Eliza, wanting to physically check to see that she was truly alright.
“I promise, I am fine,” she whispered against his lips as he rested his forehead against hers.
Tony cleared his throat. “I will take out the trash, Captain.”
James didn’t move his gaze from Eliza as he responded, “Throw the bodies overboard. They don’t deserve proper burials. Then question the crew. If anyone else feels they want a piece of my wife, they will soon be sleeping with the fishes.”
Tony’s lips twitched. “Aye, aye, Captain.”
Once they had dragged Bones’ body from the room, Eliza melted against James.
“I am sorry.” He shook his head. “I just finished assuring you of your safety last night only to have you awaken to the likes of Bones.”
Eliza reached up and cupped his face between her palms. “I was afraid for a moment, but I knew you would come for me. It’s alright, James.”
He held her close and refused to leave until Eliza insisted that she needed to use the necessary. Once she had taken care of her needs, she moved to the trunk of clothes and began to dress.
James frowned heavily. “Why the clothes?”
Eliza’s eyes danced as she responded. “Your crew doesn’t need to see me in the altogether, and I am tired of this cabin. It’s time that you took me above deck.”
James didn’t like the sound of that at all. But he couldn’t help but agree to her scheme when he saw how determined Eliza was. She was beautiful, determined and so much stronger than she had been all those years ago.
Once above deck, Eliza asked a million questions about sailing. James found that he enjoyed teaching her. He especially loved standing behind her and allowing Eliza to hold the rudder as he showed her how to steer the large vessel.
The time went quickly, and Eliza’s face began to pink in the sun. Her hair whipped about her face and her lips were a tiny bit chapped. James knew then that he had never seen her look lovelier. The happiness that shone from her face nearly brought him to his knees.
After a while Tony took Eliza to show her the crow’s nest and to speak with some of the crew members. Abe approached James, following his gaze to the lovely Eliza.
“She is everything you always said she was,” Abe said in a low voice.
In truth, James had spoken of his Lizzie so often that both Tony and Abe felt a connection to her, if only through James. They both would do anything for their Captain, and they knew he would do the same for them.
Abe had been humbled that James would allow him to witness his Lizzie in her pleasure. He had been hard as a rock and desperate to touch himself. Just thinking of the way her lips parted as she came had his cock springing to life.
“I know she is yours,” Abe said in his forthright manner. “But I would be obliged if you would allow me just a glimpse of her pleasure again. I promise not to interfere. But I know that Tony feels the same.”
James raised a brow. He knew that Abe and Tony had an on and off again relationship. The two men were fairly exclusive, but on occasion would at times share a woman between them. James had often been a witness to their couplings, but never had taken part.
James wondered what his Lizzie would think of seeing the two men fuck each other. An idea came to mind. “Would you and Tony care for an audience?”
Abe’s eyes lit with enthusiasm. “I dare say we would, Captain.”
James nodded. “Come to my cabin tonight. I can’t say for sure that Lizzie will be amenable. But I have a feeling that she would enjoy the show.”
“Thank you, Captain,” Abe answered, nodding his head.
“And if she is so inclined, perhaps she will allow you two to stay on as I take her.”
Abe looked as if Christmas and his birthday had just arrived on the same day. “I shall truly hope so, Captain. I truly do.”
Chapter 9
Eliza allowed James to unfasten her dress. He kissed every inch of bare skin that he exposed, causing her to mewl with pleasure. Trying to focus on the conversation, she said, “Tell me about them.”
James paused, his mouth near the curve of her spine. “What is it you wish to know?”
Eliza turned as James straightened. The gown slipped down her body and she was left in a pair of silky drawers.
“How close are you?” Eliza asked, feeling her cheeks heat.
She didn’t know how to ask James the things she really wanted to know. Her wicked heart wished to know if James had been involved with the two men sexually. Ten years is a long time to be celibate.
James seemed to stop to consider his words. “We are as close as brothers. Indeed, they have been my family, my solace, and my comfort while we were apart.”
Eliza felt a surge of frustration; that hadn’t been the answer she had been looking for. She tried to phrase it differently. “You know of the things that I had do at the brothel?”
James nodded. “As much as I wish I could take that away from you, I can’t.”
Eliza shook her head, the soft auburn curls floating around her shoulders and curling around one breast. James took a step forward and pulled her into his arms. “What are you trying to ask me, love? Do you want to know if I had sex with Abe and Tony?”
Eliza nodded against his chest, thankful that James couldn’t see the fire staining her cheeks.
“The answer is no, Lizzie. But that doesn’t mean that I didn’t watch them fuck while I fucked my cock with my fist. Does that disgust you?”
Eliza shook her head, her breathing hitching up a notch. “No, it doesn’t.”
James cupped her apple shaped bottom and lifted her to the side of the bed. “Lizzie, look at me.”
Eliza shyly brought her eyes to his.
“Would you like to see the same things I saw? Would that put you at ease?”
Eliza felt a flurry of excitement in her belly. She wasn’t sure about such an erotic event putting her at her ease. But she knew for certain that it turned her on. Nodding furiously, she gasped as his hands moved to the heat between her thighs.
“The thought of two men fucking really turns you on, doesn’t it?” His voice was low and rumbled across her skin as he stroked her heat, not entering her. “You want to see them take each other’s cocks inside their mouth?”
“Yes,” she gasped, desperately clinging to his shoulders.
“You want to watch as his asshole is prepared and then impaled by the other? You want
to see them spend?”
“Yes, please, James, I want to see that.” She rode his hand, arching up and spreading her thighs wide until the scent of her arousal hung in the air.
“Your wish is my command.”
James turned toward the door and barked out an order. Abe and Tony fumbled inside, locking the door behind them.
The moment Tony caught sight of Eliza’s nudity; his face broke into a wide smile. “I always knew you’d have fantastic tits, lass.”
Eliza flushed all the way to her pink nipples. James picked her up and sat on the bed. Then, he turned her so that her back laid against his chest. Next, he spread her thighs once again so that the two men could see every inch of her pussy. They couldn’t mistake the signs of arousal, the swollen pink folds, or the wetness that had even spread to the inside of her thighs.
James spread her further, making sure that the two men could see everything before he dipped two fingers inside and brought them up to her lips. “Suck,” he commanded.
Abe began jerking off his clothing as quickly as possible and Tony was soon to follow. They weren’t as broad or as highly muscled as James, but they were in excellent shape. Tony’s cock was slightly longer than Abe’s, while Abe’s was thicker.
They turned to each other, moaning when their dicks rubbed together. Abe reached out and cupped Tony’s face and kissed him.
Meanwhile, James was using his other hand to pinch and tease Eliza’s breasts. It was all she could do to keep her eyes open to watch Abe and Tony. Her body was so close to release. When the men started to lightly thrust against each other, she bucked into James’ hand.
He laughed and whispered in her ear, “We are just getting started, love. I have a feeling that we will have many more erotic nights together.”
Eliza watched in fascination as Tony seemed to take over the kiss, almost brutal in the way he was kissing and rubbing his dick against Abe’s.
Almost as if he couldn’t contain himself any longer, Tony dropped to his knees and began to lick and suck Abe’s balls. Abe moaned and nearly toppled over as Tony relentlessly pleasured his lover.
