  A choked gasp caught in her throat when his hands grasped her knees and gently forced them apart, allowing him to move forward between her legs. His palms cupped the cheeks of her ass, pulling her to the edge of the table until her crotch touched his groin. Laura moaned as the hardened form of his shaft strained the fabric of his slacks and pressed against the thin cotton lining of her panties.

  He rotated his hips in a circular thrusting motion, causing the head of his penis to rub her sensitive clit. Pleasure radiated through her pelvis and centered over her apex; the muscles along the inside of her sheath clenched in response. Her breathing grew erratic as he continued to stroke, using the friction of their clothing to stimulate her tingling nub.

  Tremors worked their way along her legs, slowly crawling up her inner thighs to join in the growing sensations gathering at her core. Her hips rotated forward, rocking against his thick cock each time he thrust forward.

  Laura closed her eyes as she felt herself inching toward culmination. Her clit began to pulsate, her muscles to tighten. She prayed the nurse didn't come back anytime soon, or Dr. Flannery would have a lot of explaining to do.

  "You see, Mrs. Flannery,” Barnabas began, just as her orgasm took hold and her body began to shudder. “Babies are made when a man inserts his..."

  Laura only vaguely heard his description. Biting her bottom lip, she held back a moan that threatened to break free while her mind whirled and pleasure spasms wracked her insides. As the wonderful sensations began to ebb, she clung to his strong shoulder, panting with exhaustion.

  Barnabas held her tightly against him, messaging her back and hair as he whispered words of love and endearment in her ear. “Did that feel good?” he asked softly.

  With her face buried in the hollow of his throat, Laura nodded. Moisture stung the outer corners of her eyes and her vision blurred. Could this really be true? Had Barnabas returned to stay? Or had she simply managed to create another wishful fantasy that was simply all in her head?

  Sensing her distress, Barnabas pulled back a little. Tilting her chin up with his index finger, he looked into her eyes. His thumb swiped away a renegade tear that had slipped from her lashes to make a wet trail down her cheek.

  "Why are you crying?” Concern marred his handsome features.

  "Because,” Laura sobbed, letting loose a whole new floodtide of emotion. “I don't want this to end, but I'm afraid it's all just a dream. How can any of this be?” Her voice raised several octaves as anguish choked off her throat.

  Barnabas smiled with reassurance. Amber sparks flashed through his eyes as he looked at her with an expression full of comfort and faith. “I guess God was listening after all."

  Don't miss More Than Prophecy by Shannon Leigh

  available now from Amber Quill Press, LLC

  According to ancient prophecy, a woman will come from Earth to bear a child who will end the warring between the Ramekah and Andreas clans that has plagued the hold folk of Zandar for hundreds of years. On the tail of a magical zephyr, Cheyenne, a young Native American woman, is swept through the doorway of an interplanetary portal and whisked away from Earth in a dazing blur of motion. She's deposited, alone and half-naked, in a valley between the grassy knolls of the Rhian Mountains and the dreaded Goetic forest, just inside the boundaries of Andreas Territory.

  It's there that Lord Darian Andreas, ruler of the mighty Andreas Clan and master of the powerful Andreas Territory, finds her. Although Darian is a just man who exercises kindness and incorporates mercy into his method of rule—which, in the barbaric world of Zandar, are rare qualities for a man—he's also used to getting what he wants, one way or another. And from the moment Darian lays eyes on the dark-skinned beauty, he knows she's meant to be his. If the Gods are willing, he'll make it so...
