Chapter 17 - Chapter 16: Hearts Of Fire Feed Loins Of Desire

The Old Grove, The Usual Meeting Place, England, (1762)....

For the first time since they had begun sharing meetings beneath The Old Grove, Noreen McCray had been the first to arrive, she seemed deep in thought and given to reflection as the inquisitive Alain approached. She was her usual lovely self, sitting on a wayward root big enough to be mistaken for a branch below the tree and wearing rather casual attire, A white blouse with lace trimmings and a long dark brown skirt that nearly covered her ankles and slightly comfortable shoes despite the leggings being something of a bother for her now and again with how tight they squeezed the flesh of her calves. Her long dark hair had been pulled into a neat ponytail and she seemed pleased to see him despite there not having been a definite time agreed upon to meet.

Alain himself was dressed just as casually, his dark brown trousers and dark brown leather boots seemed to compliment his white long sleeve shirt which of course was styled in regal looking ruffles with the sleeves rolled up to expose his impressive forearms. He couldn't have asked for a better day as his own long brown locks dangled at his shoulders and swayed with his approach and in the midst of a gentle breeze that passed between them.

Noreen approached him, nearly throwing herself into his waiting arms as he pulled her close. The unmistakable scent of lilac, which he seemed to favor more and more ever since their first meeting, lingered about her person as his waiting arms gripped her for all she was worth. A series of heated kisses saw to their exchange getting off to a very promising start as they enjoyed the simplistic notion of being reunited after a long night apart.

It had not escaped Noreen's notice that her Alain was splattered with paint and that his fingers were stained from his previous efforts to bring life to canvas. The heat that seemed to smolder behind Noreen's dark gaze wasn't lost on Alain as he treated her to another series of kisses along the exposed line of her neck. She seemed to delight in his attention, more so than before. He supposed it was fitting as they were well past meager pleasantries and knew each other more intimately than possibly anyone else in their respective associations.

The splendid heat from their close proximity seemed to get the better of them as Noreen's hands trailed from his semi exposed chest, which occurred after she ripped open his shirt to run her hands along the exposed flesh of it, down to his trousers where she very boldly gripped the object of her desire knowing just how pleasureable the experience of having it inside her replayed in the form of her rather vivid memories of their previous encounters.

"Someone's missed me." she said stroking him casually as he struggled rather valiantly, but sadly in vain to keep his composure.

Alain had not said a word as his unseemly desire for the woman teasing him so callously was most definitely in control of his facilities at the present moment.

Noreen seemed to be pleased with this turn of events and bit her bottom lip, which had been ruby red ever since their first encounter due to her taste for flashy makeup. She pressed her body closer to his, still fondling the object of her desire as she trailed slow kisses along the exposed portion of Alain's chest causing him to groan with need before pulling her closer.

While Alain was not a man to always be led about via the impulses of his cock, he was still a very young man with long dormant desires and the least of which had full control over him at the behest of his lover and her audacious tendency toward teasing him.

Her teasing would have a heavy price of course as he wrestled her to the ground while she giggled unseemly still intent on her teasing ways. A series of kisses on his part seemed to rekindle her desire in place of her mischievous nature and she began to gasp in anticipation of what would come next.

Driven by the madness of lust, Alain made short work of getting her out of her knickers ripping at the leggings she so desperately despised and parting her thighs in an effort to fit himself between them as he quickly pulled down his trousers and threw off what remained of his shirt that dangled from his forearms.

Heavy breaths signaled the heightened sense of the moment as well as the rampant intensity while Alain carefully took hold of his cock fitting it at the entrance of his writhing lover's warmth. A bit of work to lift her skirt and finally open her blouse was all it took for his hazel eyes to bare witness to the absolute beauty of her semi naked body. Her breasts begged for attention and he gladly obliged kissing and licking at the protruding decidedly red hued nipples that were always so sensitive to his unseemly attentions.

Noreen began to moan filling the quiet air with the sounds of her unbridled pleasure as Alain continued to seek out any means of both paying her back for her earlier teasing and to make their current measure of a sensual experience as pleasant as possible. Noreen couldn't seem to make her mind work as her body's apparent need took precedence.

"Regret your teasing now?" he asked moving his hand along her body and slipping his waiting fingers into her warmth.

Noreen could only moan as she began to seek a means of being closer to her surprisingly skillful lover. Alain didn't need to be told what to do as he had gauged what she wanted from the sheer need behind her lovely eyes.

"Alain..." she whimpered reaching in desperation for his exposed cock wanting nothing more than for him to get on with their desired union just as they had before.

With a light chuckle in the wake of her desperation, Alain once more found himself in the mood to oblige her and removed his fingers from her depths causing her to whimper in disappointment before sinking his entire length into her much to her amazement. She still wasn't in the least prepared for him as far as her initial shock via his size, but she was more than willing to accommodate him as their act got underway.

Noreen's hands gripped him, her fingernails digging into the exposed pale flesh of his back as his forward thrusts saw to her body gliding amid the flowerbed and the pile of discarded attire littered the small alcove where they had made the agreement to venture time and time again just to find time with each other in a world of their own. Alain enjoyed the breaks from the demands of his status as nobility and the eroding social circle that came with it. He knew not what drove Noreen to seek out his company as opposed to her own status in the world but he was glad of it.

Just as before, sensation and desire ruled the morning as Alain found himself falling more and more in love with the beautiful woman writhing beneath him. Her lovely breasts bounced and his hands dug deep into the earth that surrounded them. The scent of the flowers and her own lavish spray filled his flaring nostrils as the intense sounds of their rutting filled his ears. The warmth from the beaming rays of the sun hit his exposed back and added to the heated exchange between them.

Before he knew it, sweat began to cascade along his body as his instinct drove him to fulfill his base desires with Noreen along for the ride. Alain had not known if it was the sensation building as her inner depths clenched around his cock or if it had been the sheer force of emotions that seemed to swell between them that moment but Noreen gripped him tighter nibbling at his ear as she began to whisper and moan where he could hear nothing but her.

"I-I love you..." she uttered a shocking notion of words if ever Alain had heard them but he wasn't of the mind to question them much.

"I love you too." he replied before a series of grunts erupted from his lips as once more his ability to reason fade away and was replaced with sheer animalistic need to lay claim to the woman who held his interest.

Alain's heart beat thunderously inside his chest as he continued to thrust deeply into Noreen who let out a series of moans and gasps as she indulged fully in the means of pleasure he'd been igniting via his powerful movements.

As the frantic coupling continued, morning soon gave way to the early indication of evening as hours upon hours of their shared experience seemed to go by in a blink. It wasn't long before Alain felt the pulsing that signaled his end get the better of him just as Noreen gripped him and screamed aloud amid the trees after reaching her end. The intensity of her release nearly pulled his from him before he managed to recall her not wanting his seed inside her at the risk of a pregnancy neither of them could afford in the form of a scandal.

Despite his desire otherwise, Alain once again managed to withdraw from the warmth he'd come to crave after each and every one of their sensual encounters, just as he reached his end spilling his seed along the grass and his own body in a bid to get away from her. Noreen lied blissfully on her back panting for breath as she looked up at the old grove which shaded them and hid their act from the rest of the world.

Alain grunted feeling his cock pulse within his grasp as his seed shot up into the open air and splattered along the grass and his own thighs. He was disappointed about having to withdraw like before, but he knew that neither of them could afford the risks no matter how pleasurable it would have been to finish inside her. Gasping for breath in his own right as his beating heart began to return to a normal pace, Alain lied back down beside the still naked Noreen and found himself staring up at the old grove himself.

His long brown locks stuck to his sweat blasted face as he attempted to come to his senses. Noreen smiled at him, taking note of the sweat that glistened from both of their exposed bodies. She rested her head against his chest and ran her fingers along his slick flesh amused and pleased by all accounts that he had remembered to respect her wishes.

She knew all too well the desires of young men and that most found it difficult to adhere to even the simplest of requests when under the effects of their lust. While she had not indulge with anyone aside from Alain, it was due to her constant need to feel in control. Tales of the desires of young men from the perspective of her elder sisters sometimes kept her up at night and she often fretted over how it would affect her life to be bound to a callous whoremonger that sought to only pleasure themselves and leave her wanting.

Unbeknownst to Alain, she had chosen to give herself to him for a number of reasons, one of which was her fear of not being in control when given to a man of primal lusts and the other was the fact that she was told from the very moment the contract was signed that she'd be forced to wed a nobleman whom she did not know and had little to no interest in.

The very image of an unhappy marriage to an old man with primal lusts and aggressive tendencies was the very thing that drove her to do the unthinkable. Turning her back on years of tradition and careful dealings, she chose to give her virtue away before it could be stolen by one she had not had the pleasure of choosing herself. Noreen cared little for respectability when her very life and youth were for the domination of a bloke she knew nothing about because her father, a traditional and vile man whom had been quite displeased to have only daughters born to his family line wished it so.

Her meeting Alain was truly a fortunate thing, as she wished to be with a young man of particular virtue. The younger bloke was quite naive and sweet, the very opposite of her worst fears and largely unspoiled by the prospect of having lost his own virtue to any known lustful daughters of noble birth or ill repute whores from the brothel.

Noreen found that over the course of her association with the handsome young Alain Remington that he was everything she'd been looking for and a sensitive soul to boot. Selfishly, she guarded the secret of her status and life experiences from his inquisition but she figured it was for the best and that they could at the very least enjoy this whirlwind of passion before it came to an end.

Of course, she had not foreseen the outcome of her own inevitable attachment to the charming lad. He had taken her to bed only twice before this and already she felt the intensity of possessiveness creep into her being that came from the depths of her affection for him.

Never before had she experienced anything remotely as passionate as her affair with Alain Remington and she was driven mad with the implication that he might find someone else should the mood strike him, like all noble lads that had their lusts stoked and were given to becoming men with wandering eyes.

"What are you thinking about?" asked Noreen running her fingers along his chest as she they both seemed to bask in the afterglow of their recent coupling.

"You." replied Alain honestly. "To tell you the truth I've not been able to think about anything else since the day we met."

Noreen seemed both pleased and concerned about this, but decided to "test the waters" as it were just the same.

"I'm sure you have plenty of other young women at your beck and call to keep you busy throughout the day." she said knowing full well that he wasn't in the least interested in anyone else.

Alain was apparently highly offended by that remark and sat up. Noreen met his gaze which was intense and quite shocking.

"You must know that I would never betray you in that manner." he said with a seriousness to his tone that reminded her of the proper gentleman she met when she first entered ventured to the old grove. "No woman of any age has ever held my attention the way that you do, and I've never taken to bedding any aside from you."

Noreen found that she was both relieved and disappointed to hear this. It was not her intention for Alain to become so attached to her but she couldn't help, but enjoy it as he'd been the only man she'd spread her thighs for due to reasons of her own.

"Good." she replied seemingly satisfied with his reply.

Alain sighed before once more lying beside her. She rested her head against his chest again and closed her eyes as the sound of his breathing and heartbeat began to lull her into a contented slumber while he held her tight and did the same as his own eyes began to become heavy and the warmth from her body being pressed against his provided a comfort that even being surrounded via the elements couldn't shake.

As he drifted off to sleep with the woman of his dreams firmly within his grasp, Alain came to the conclusion that those were not just words uttered in the heat of the moment during their coupling, he had feelings for Noreen McCray, intense and vastly unshakeable feelings that he began to understand could only be classified as love.

He had fallen head over heels in love with Noreen McCray and from her demeanor in the wake of her almost accusatory questions, it appeared that she had fallen for him as well.
