Plying her lover’s lips with wet, intense kisses, Joanna spread her full, fleshy hips to give him greater access; hugging him to her as she thrust her hips forward and engaged him in a lustful tango.
“You temptress,” he whispered against her lips, clutching her to him as his reverberating, sweat glistened cock sank still deeper into her. “You have no idea how beautiful you are, do you? Well do allow me to show you.”
Sweeping her up in a binding embrace, an impassioned Rafe ran his hands through the lengths of her long dark hair in loving strokes as he lowered his free hand between her sturdy legs; stroking her aroused clit as his cock continued to probe and penetrate her.
Repaying him in kind, Joanna ran her hands down his back and laid a playful slap on his hard flawless rear; a move that drove him still deeper into her as their arms and legs entangled.
Their lips collided in a timeless kiss as, with the final stroke of his long, hard shaft, he sent them both careening over the bounds of an intense mutual orgasm; their beings exploding in a wave of sheer ecstasy as their sweat lined bodies clung to one another, tight and true.
“Be mine, Joanna,” Rafe released on a gasp, embracing her to him as they collapsed exhausted in one another’s arms. “Stay here with me.”
The next few days passed in a dreamy haze for Joanna, who found herself wined, dined and pampered by the man whose side she simply couldn’t leave. She and Rafe spent their days ensconced in the fragrant, fertile lands of his gardens and winery, her lover gifting her with bouquets of scarlet red roses, pearl pink carnations and lavender African violets grown on his own land. Then the duo returned home to enjoy samples of his fresh brewed wine with gourmet dinners of filet mignon, escargot, chocolate mousse and other upscale delicacies.
Of course Joanna still continued to work at the newspaper (where her editor praised her in-depth research of one particularly handsome interview subject in particular) and at the shelter; where she was sad to see that the mysterious creature who’d darkened their door one evening never did make a return visit.
On the evening of the art show fund-raiser, Rafe surprised her with the gift of a lush, billowy red satin dress that flattered and accentuated her generous curves; along with a sparkling diamond necklace and matching earrings that she donned with pride--also arranging the strands of her thick dark hair atop her head in an artful upsweep.
Her date himself cut a spectacular figure in a fine cut suit of sleek ebony velvet; one that set off his hair, eyes and bronzed skin to handsome effect. And when he escorted her into the vast community hall that would house that evening’s exhibit, she sat proud by his side as he showed and sold his paintings on behalf of the animals; receiving many compliments herself on the stellar preview article that she’d written to preview the event.
“You and I make a good team,” he told her at one point, adding as he offered her his arm, “Care to get a little fresh air with me, love?”
Soon the pair walked side by side in the small forest clearing that formed the southern border of the Benington Community Center; walking hand in hand as they stared deep into one another’s eyes.
“You look so beautiful tonight,” he whispered in her ear, moving closer to her in the moonlight. “That dress brings out the very sexy woman I’ve always sensed lies deep within you.”
Joanna shook her head.
“You’re the one who brought her to the surface—it has nothing to do with the dress,” she told him, stopping in her tracks as she turned to face him. “It was you who truly brought out the animal in me.”
The couple’s public surroundings dissolved around them as they came together in the clearing; their bodies clenching in a hot cocoon as he seized her lips in a heated kiss.
Rafe’s lips massaged and caressed hers as they held one another closer than close; Joanna sinking in his massive arms as his kisses lulled her into a sweet, dreamy rhapsody.
A rhapsody shattered moments later, and in a sheen of incredible pain. Joanna screamed outright as a shard of pure agony ripped through the flesh of her leg; and when she stared down with wide eyes to identify its source, she was shocked to see the animal that had visited her shelter just days beforehand—immediately recognizing its thick ebony fur and long, pointed ears. And feeling the bite of its lethal fangs.
“Don’t you know me?” she bellowed out, fixing the creature with wide, frantic eyes as she jumped shocked from Rafe’s arms. “I’m your friend.”
Immediately releasing its hold on her leg, the creature looked up at her with wide, savage eyes; bright emerald gems that could not possibly belong to the warm, gentle creature that had visited her shelter.
Somehow, though, she knew those eyes.
“But from where?” she pondered, kneeling down to clutch her bruised leg as she and the creature continued to hold and lock their steely gazes.
Her own eyes flew wide moments later, as a second creature sprang onto the scene; a huge, ebony furred wolf whose wide dark gaze drew a sigh of relief from deep in her throat.
She watched relieved as her long lost friend lunged with fangs bared at her mysterious assailant; barking and growling in a menacing manner in the direction of the bright-eyed wolf.
Although answering her friend at once with a savage growl that made Joanna’s blood boil, her attacker soon cowered as her determined protector swiped with sharpened claws; continuing to growl and show his fangs until finally the assailant turned tail—actually sniffing as it disappeared into the thick canopy of emerald leaved trees that lie just before them.
For a moment Joanna shut her eyes tight, letting loose with a relieved sigh as the pain in her leg subsided.
When she reopened her eyes seconds later, she came face to face with her lover; a man who, much to her shock, stood naked before her—his ebony eyes wide and blazing and his hair wild and tousled.
She gasped outright as she saw the fangs that protruded from the mouth she’d kissed so often these past few days; at the same time, she did not resist as Rafe stepped forward to take her in an impassioned embrace.
“Are you all right, baby?” he asked her, tone raw and rough. “Did she hurt you?”
“She,” Joanna repeated on a whisper, adding as she stared deep into his eyes, “That was Ariel, wasn’t it? Ariel attacked me. And you saved me.” She paused here, adding in a knowing tone, “Your wolf portraits, Rafe—they’re self-portraits, aren’t they?”
Rafe nodded.
“Now you know who I am, my lady,” he told her, adding as he pulled her closer, “Can you possibly accept me?”
Joanna thought a moment, then shrugged.
“Well I suppose so,” she told him, running her hands over the surface of his hard muscled chest. “If, that is, you can persuade me.”
Grinning at this all too familiar phrase, Rafe let loose with a howl of desire as he swept her off her feet; seizing her lips with a passionate kiss as he lowered her to the ground beneath them.
Soon his body covered hers in a bed of fresh, fragrant clover; their arms and legs entangling as their tongues entwined and their lips merged and meld.
“My darling,” he whispered, breaking their kiss to stare deep into her eyes as he lowered a tender, attentive hand to rub her scarred leg. “Do give me the honor of making you feel better.”
Once again claiming her mouth in a hot, passionate kiss, his tickling fingertips ran the length of her leg before touching and teasing her feminine nest; reaching beneath the border of her soft satin panties to tease the door of her feminine entry.
Joanna gasped outright, and her hips arched reflexive, as her lover slipped a long, agile finger to the depths of her soaking wet pussy; continuing to kiss and caress her as his intimate touch probed the walls of her sensitive femininity.
The back and forth motion of his long, wet tongue mirrored that of his agile finger as he pressed and probed; his intimate touch setting fire to her insides as her nipples hardened and her pussy gushed.
She plied his lips with a gratef
ul kiss as he continued to stroke her most intimate area; wrapping her arms around his muscled shoulders as her breasts crushed his sculpted chest.
Although returning her kisses with upmost tenderness and cradling her in the sweetest embrace, Rafe still let loose with the sexiest growls as his strong hand coursed the length of her back; pulling her closer still as his hand seemed to seek the source of her ultimate pleasure.
And just then, he hit the spot.
Jumping in his arms as her body erupted in the intense heat of a G-spot orgasm, Joanna writhed shameless against the plane of her lover’s divine hardness; their hips and thighs locking between them as she threw her arms around and opened herself to him.
Stripping off her sleek red dress and tossing it to the ground beside them, Rafe kissed and worshipped the body he exposed; kissing and licking her neck and breasts as their hips rocked together and their legs entangled.
Soon their naked, sweat lined bodies merged and rolled wild on the ground below them as—finally and fully—they merged as one. Rafe’s long, hard shaft penetrating her soaking pussy as they kissed and cuddled; their fingers entwining sweetly even as his cock surged forth to her very core.
Spreading her soft, fleshy thighs to him, Joanna threw her head back as she clutched him to her; running her hungry hands down his flawless pecs and abs as he continued to pump and penetrate her. Their moves were swift and frenzied as they clung to one another; sealing their love with a resounding kiss as—finally and fully—their bodies hurtled across the bounds of an incredible mutual climax as both let loose with a wild howl that seemed to signify eternal love—at its wildest.
“You said it to me, so now I say it to you,” Rafe told Joanna. “You bring out the animal in me. And I love you for it—ever so much.”
