Free Claiming Julia by Charisma Knight

mirror, accessing and accepting herself, in an effort to forget the insults etched into her memory from her mother’s lover. She smiled at the contrast of their skin and the beauty of their physiques. They did make one hell of a couple, and it turned her on. But she did have to answer him, tell him why she thought he’d never want her.
    “I’ll admit. The scars my mother’s lover inflicted on me as a child took some time to heal, but I’m better now. If anything, he helped make me a stronger person.”
    “Good. You exude an aura of power and pride when you’re in the office. Everyone sees you as being confident and strong.”
    Julia held her head up proudly. “We’re a damned good-looking couple for sure,” she admitted.
    “Also know we’re never making love in the dark. As I said before, I want to see your body. It turns me on.”
    Julia laughed. “Why is it that you always seem to make me laugh when I’m trying to be serious?” She smiled as his hands glided over her body. “I mean, I work out, and even though sometimes I feel I could stand to shed some pounds, I’ve been happy with myself all these years. Just that my mother’s boyfriend used to make fun of me as a child, so I’ve got some demons haunting me at times.”
    “We’ll exorcise those demons together.”
    Julia turned toward Angus and hugged him. “These past few weeks have been the best of my life.” She needed to tell him that. She had never felt such a need to express her feelings with any man. It was a great relief to release them instead of smothering them, as she had been taught to do most of her life.
    “Good, baby. That’s real good, because I need you in every aspect of my life. I love you and don’t ever want to let you go.” He carried her over toward the bed and gently laid her down. She sucked in a breath as Angus flicked his tongue over the small mound of her lower tummy until she shuddered.
    “Yes, baby,” he crooned as his kisses dropped lower, to the place that burned for him.
    “Angus!” She called his name several times as he flicked his tongue over her swollen flesh. To her disbelief her orgasm was abrupt but lasted longer than any other she’d experienced.
    Julia spread her legs wider to give him access as he crawled up her body and kissed her passionately. With a groan, he focused his attention on her breasts. Angus sucked one dark areola then the other into his mouth as he gently caressed the large globes in his hands. Her hands buried themselves in his mane and traveled down his neck to his back as she arched into his mouth.
    “I want nothing more than to bury my face between your legs, but I’m too damned close to the edge. See what you do to me!” His dragon stirred beneath the surface, egging him on.
    “Please,” she begged. “I’m on fire. I need you inside me right now!”
    At her command, Angus went deep in one stroke then held still as Julia bucked beneath him. When her lips lifted to meet his, he thrust deep inside her, gliding in and out of her slick tunnel.
    “Oh my God!” she moaned, her fingernails scratching his back as he held her pinned to the bed.
    “I need to take you from behind!” His voice was raspy and demanding. Before she could speak, he’d turned her over on her belly, propping her behind up in the air for his access. Placing a hand on her back, Angus eased her forward to rest on her knees and forearms. He moaned at the sight of her ass tilted up, in perfect position for him to slide deep inside of her.
    “Nice,” Angus hissed before exploring Julia’s swollen folds and easing a thick finger deep inside her crevice while stroking his cock. Biting his lip, he rubbed his engorged member against her plush ass cheeks, occasionally brushing against her weeping slit.
    Legs trembling and teeth clenched, she protested. “Stop teasing me, dammit! Please, fuck me now.”
    “Whatever you desire.” Nudging her legs wide apart with one big leg, and then, so easily and without
