No matter what Tala did she just couldn't relax. Finally giving up after finishing her book and the last bit of fruit from her tray, she decided to stretch her legs and take the tray back down to the kitchen.
"What?!" Tala exclaimed to the silence after opening the fridge "There were pancakes?" She gasped in mock offense.
They've been keeping her on a strict diet while she heals. Rolling her eyes she grabs the milk and walks away. While making herself a cup of coffee she couldn't help but stare towards the barn. Everything inside of her was telling her that she needed to go in there. Maybe while they were all gone I could check out who these guys really are. Tala thought as she walked out the door, carefully drinking her coffee as she made her way. The grass was still wet from the morning dew and was tickling her bare feet.
As soon as she entered the barn she could smell him. His sent was all over everything. Especially the upstairs. This must be where he sleeps, she thought looking at the couch when she made it upstairs. Tala noticed a suitcase under the coffee table and began rummaging through it.
"How's your snooping going?" Luke's voice came from behind her a few moments later.
Making her jump and hit her head on the coffee table. Almost knocking her coffee off of it. Tala looks up at him in shock but quickly turned back around as soon as she noticed that he was stark naked. Currently using his towel to dry his hair.
"Oh gosh, I'm so sorry, I should go" she said as she tried covering her eyes but Luke grabbed her wrist before she could.
"You have no reason to go, stay, talk to me." Luke asked. She noticed he had already wrapped his towel around his very fit, very attractive waist. "How are you feeling?"
"Better." She said sheepishly. What was he even doing here? He was supposed to be with the others. She thought to her self.
"So, What were you looking for?" Luke asked staring strait into Tala's eyes. He didn't even seem mad, more curious if anything.
"Ummm finding out if you're a boxers or briefs kind of guy." she joked as she tried to force the cheesiest grin she could muster. She could feel her face becoming hot and red from the embarrassment. Why couldn't she have come up with a better excuse.
"You could of just asked and I could of told you, maybe even of modeled them for you." He said flirtatiously as he bent beside her to grab a pair of boxer briefs from the front pocket of the suitcase and began twirling them around his finger. Stopping halfway up to give Tala a wink causing her to become even more red. With one hand he removes his towel and tosses it at her. Flustered she quickly turned away. Luke gently caresses her jaw and turns her face towards him. She noticed he had already gotten his boxers on.
"What's the real reason?" he asked his face becoming tense. "What were you looking for?"
Tala searched his face, it had darkened with seriousness this time. Standing up suddenly, she walks over to the wall. Carefully pacing "Who are you? What are you doing here? Doing to me? . . ." she kept her eyes on the carpet. Scared to face him.
He looks at her hard for a moment, stuck in his own thoughts before walking towards her. Wrapping his arms around her, she places her head on his chest. They stood there for a moment with her just listening to his heart beat.
With a gentle hand he lifts Talas chin to face him
"I'm here to protect you, I promise. I don't know why but. . . all I do is think about you. I can't explain it, it doesn't even make any sense to me either. I just want you so much. In so many ways." He told her.
He growls softly in her ear and she can feel the heat inside her begin to build. He feels her nipples turn hard against his chest.
"I feel so drawn to you. Its like a magnate pulling me towards you." She explains as she begins biting and kissing his neck.
Her fingertips playing with his damp curly hair. She feels something inside him growling, it makes something in her yearn, wanting more. Lifting her up to meet his pelvic bone, she can feel his need pressed up against her. She takes his bottom lip into her mouth, gently biting and playing with it. Before she knows what's happened she's laying down. He had gently and quickly maneuvered them to the couch. He was now on top of her. They were both rocking their hips to a beat only they could hear and their dance was getting faster. She wanted him, needed him, now. He felt the same intense desire. No one had ever made him feel this way.
Breaking from his kiss, Tala kisses and bites his shoulder. His muscles were even more magnificent than she thought. She pushes him over and begins kissing and biting him down his abs, stopping just above the elastic of his boxers. He swiftly lifts up her shirt, freeing her breasts. Pulling her up onto him, and her left nipple into his mouth. Straddling him she began to grind. She feels his hardness pressed against her making her grind harder and faster. He uses his fingertips to tease her soft bud as she moved. Making her gasp anytime he got too close to her desire. He was playing and teasing. His tongue danced around her aroused nipple as his fingers did a dance of their own. Until carefully slipping inside her making a moan escape her sweet lips. Feeling her tight warmth as she rocked against his hand. He didn't know how much more he could take. The sexy way she took control and rocked against him made his need hunger for her more. She couldn't take it anymore herself. She wanted him, needed him right now. Luke swiftly slid her shorts and panties off and tosses them to the floor. After removing his own he used his swollen tip to tease and play as he did with fingers. Her whole body was tense, awaiting the euphoric pleasure of her need and want finally being fulfilled. Almost inside . . .
"What the hell is it with this place?" Blaidd scoffs as he throws his hands up and turns around. "I'll just meet you in the car." He called over his shoulder as he turned and walked back outside.
Diana who sat wide eyed in shock didn't know what to say. Luke quickly grabbed the blanket that was draped over the couch to cover them.
"I'm so sorry." Luke apologies to both Tala and Diana.
"How much did you see?" Tala askes in a tiny voice. Embarrassed as she held the blanket to her chin. She could still feel his need pressed against her. Still dangerously close.
"Thankfully not much." Diana said her hand now at her temple where a headache was beginning to form. Thankfully she was downstairs so part of the vision of them was blocked.
"I forgot my wallet so we came back for it. When I grabbed it, I noticed Tala was missing. I got really scared so Blaidd suggested we find you . . . You were supposed to keep your eyes on her, not your hands!" Diana scolded him.
"Wait, who's we?" Tala asked nervously.
"You lucked out. It's just Blaidd and I. So, considering we all have to listen to Luke, I assume I can't say a word about this?" Diana's annoyance and disapproval was obvious on her face.
"Thank you Diana, your discretion is appreciated." Luke replied.
"You're welcome, now both of you get dressed because obviously I can't leave you two alone again." Diana sighs and walks out to the truck.
The drive was quiet as they headed into town. Luke was in the back of the truck watching Tala who was in the front cab. She was so beautiful as she stared out the window. He could still smell her intoxicating essence. Being so close yet so far away from her was driving him crazy. What the hell is the matter with him? He needs to get his shit together, he thought as he stared out the window trying not to look at her.
