The Barbarian Mate [Edited]

Chapter 26

Yeilk pushed off the tree when he saw her, his eyes locking onto hers with an intense gaze. He looked at her from head to toe, his eyes lingering on her curves before meeting her eyes again. She pulled her clothes off and set them on top of his, her movements confident and seductive.

He pulled her into the water, still looking at her with a hungry gaze. "What?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.

"Just remembering when you first got here," he replied, his voice low and husky.

She raised an eyebrow. "When I couldn't do anything to save my life?"

Yeilk chuckled. "No. How scared you were of me."

Althea's eyes widened in surprise. "Wait, you knew?" She didn't think he had picked up on her fear.

Yeilk nodded. "I'm the Chief. Now we're mates, and you're having a baby."

Althea smiled, her eyes shining with love. "Times have changed, ah? I'm glad I came, and I'm even more glad I decided to stay. You're a good man, Yeilk, and you prove it every single day. We're lucky to have you."

A smile broke out on Yeilk's face, and he claimed her lips in a heated kiss. He could feel her heart beating fast, and he loved the effect he had on her. She was his, and he was hers.

"I want you inside me now," she whispered, her voice husky with desire.

Yeilk's eyes locked onto hers, his gaze burning with intensity. "The baby," he said, his voice low and cautious.

Althea smiled, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "You won't hurt the baby."

That was all Yeilk needed to hear. He set her on her back, and with one thrust, he was buried deep inside her. "Don't stop!" she cried out, her voice echoing through the forest.

Their moans filled the air as Yeilk made love to her, his movements slow and deliberate. He could see only her, his vision tunneling down to the woman beneath him. With every thrust, a sweet moan left her lips, fueling his desire. Her nails left deep scratches on his back, and he loved the feeling of her marking him.

She came undone around him, but Yeilk wasn't finished. He turned her onto her stomach, the soft grass beneath her. He slid into her again, over and over, until he filled her up. He kissed her back as she cried out from reaching her peak.

He slid out of her and picked her up, bringing her to the water. "Get better every time," he whispered, his voice husky with desire.

He released her hair from the braid, letting it flow freely down her back. His fingers parted her wet folds and buried themselves inside her. "Oh God!" she cried out, her eyes drifting closed.

Yeilk looked at her, amused, his eyes crinkling at the corners. He continued to work his fingers in and out of her, his movements slow and deliberate.

"I want more. Please," she whispered, her voice husky with desire.

Yeilk added another finger, making her moan. "Don't you dare stop," she warned, her eyes flashing with desire.

But Yeilk stopped, his eyes locked onto hers with a mischievous glint. Althea glared at him, but the glare soon vanished when something way bigger took the place of his fingers.

He leaned back against the bank, watching her take all of him once again. He made the right choice when he claimed her as his. His hands settled on her waist as he went deeper inside her.

"Yeilk!" she cried out, her voice echoing through the forest.

She came undone around him once again, her head resting against his chest as she tried to catch her breath. Yeilk was still hard inside her, and Althea knew that if she wasn't already pregnant, she definitely would be after this.

She kissed his chest before smiling up at him, her eyes sparkling with love. Her eyes widened when she felt him pulse inside her. "You're still..."

Yeilk's eyes darkened, his voice low and husky. "That's the effect you have on me."

His eyes seemed to burn with intensity, and Althea knew that she was in trouble. "If you don't stop moving, we won't be leaving here," he warned, his voice low and menacing.

As tempting as that sounded, Althea was lacking energy. She smiled up at Yeilk, her eyes sparkling with love. "I think we've had enough for today," she whispered, her voice husky with desire.

Yeilk nodded, his eyes still burning with intensity.
