Free Saved By A Siren: Spencers in Love Book One by Abigail Graves Page B

Longwood, Gilles mounted the steps as he
made his way to his chambers. Elise glided beside him. They turned into the
hallway and Gilles felt his nerves draw tight. He escorted Elise to her door.
He took her hand and savored the silken softness of the back of her hand
against his lips.
                "Darling, whatever you hear later, please
stay in your room. I'll try to be as quiet as a I can." He had no idea how
he'd make good on that but he needed her to agree.
                Elise leaned into him, brushed his cheek as her
fingers sought his lips.
                "You're sure you'll have a nightmare
tonight?"
                "It's the same every night." Gilles
shrugged. "I'm used to it."
                She sensed the dread he felt, his tenseness. He
didn't want to be alone but his concern for their reputations and his innate
sense of honor drove him. Elise rose on her tiptoes and kissed him quickly
before hastily retreating into her room. She'd made no promises.
                Gilles pressed his face to her door and imagined
what would happen if he opened it, sent her maid, Anna, away. Would she let him
tend to her? He pushed away from the door and opened his. It was silent and
dark. He quickly peeled off his clothes and slid between the sheets of his bed
as he listened to Elise and Anna as they went about their routine.

                An hour later, Elise leaned against the door
that separated her from Gilles. He was lost in terror and torment, thrashing
and moaning in his bed and she was close to tears herself. He'd asked her to
stay in her room. Was he aware of how difficult it would be?
                "Please, wait!" His cry was hoarse and
weak.
                Elise slid to the floor and hugged her knees.
                She heard a pillow or the coverlet fall to the
floor.
                "Stop!" Gilles cried.
                She'd had enough. Rising, Elise turned the door
handle and rushed in. She was by his bed before she'd thought it through. She
tentatively extended her hand and it brushed against heated flesh. She
carefully curled her fingers and was able to identify his shoulder. Gilles'
head tossed against the pillow.
                Elise debated the wisdom of disobeying him until
he cried out. She untied her robe and let it fall to the floor. She carefully
lowered herself next to him and was immediately overwhelmed by the heat and
hardness of his body. Gilles rolled towards her and his arms locked around her
body. She wrapped her arms around him and found his mouth. Her tongue traced
his lips and he sobbed her name. She gasped as she felt his cock, hard and
twitching against her thigh.
                "Gilles, Wake up!" She begged, her
lips pressed to his ear. She let her tongue explore until it found his ear lobe
and she nibbled. "I'm here, come back to me." Elise whispered.
                She heard him groan groggily and his hands began
to move. They pressed and kneaded her back and then down to her bottom. She
stifled a squeal as one traveled lower and found the sensitive skin at the back
of her thigh. The other traveled upwards and tangled in her hair. Gilles
gathered her to him and claimed her mouth.
                "I told you not to come." he murmured
against her lips as he nibbled and licked.
                Elise sighed and he rolled her on her back.
                Her hands threaded through his hair and she
arched her back, begging him to continue where they left off earlier.
                "I couldn't stand it. You cried and begged,
I had to do something." Elise returned to his ear and explored it with her
tongue.
                Gilles growled and rocked his hips against hers.
He was so hard, he didn't trust himself. His lips found her throat and he began
laving and licking. His hands had somehow formed
