his fingertips around the top of her thighs, under her buttocks, until his hands were flat on the back of her legs and his fingers were between her thighs. ‘Oh! God!’ burst from her lips as he removed his mouth and he smiled as his fingers touched her, stroking softly at the lips of her sex. ‘Yes!’ she gasped . ‘Oh! God! Yes! Robert, it’s been so long!’ Robert had no intention of making love to her under the oak tree, but I could maybe give her an orgasm or two he thought lasciviously. He gently prised her lips apart and stroked his long fingers along the silky interior, from back to front. She moaned again and jerked as his fingertip slid over her clitoris. He was astonished at how wet she was, it was pouring out of her. He delicately teased her until her first orgasm exploded and her body shook with the intensity. He quickly laid her on her back, pushing her skirts up around her waist and buried his face between her thighs. He sucked and licked at her as her body writhed and she orgasmed again almost immediately and clutched her hands in his hair. ‘Oh!’ she gasped and continued to grunt as her sex pulsed. ‘Oh! God! It’s fantastic!’ she groaned as she lifted her hips for more. He kept her coming until she was so sensitive he couldn’t touch her and her legs were crushing his skull. He finally removed his tongue with one final slow lick and she jerked. He pushed her knees together and pulled her skirts down again. Laying beside her, propped on his elbow he stared down into an ecstatic face. ‘Thank you!’ she gasped. ‘I’d almost forgotten what it was like!’ ‘Was it that good?’ he asked so softly. She stared up into his face and nodded. ‘It was wonderful.’ She mumbled against his lips as he kissed her softly. ‘I think anything else should be done in private, not under the oak tree by the lake.’ He murmured in between kisses. ‘And when do you intend to seduce me properly.’ She asked with a smile. ‘Well, I was thinking about after dinner or tonight.’ He said and smiled, ‘your choice of course.’ She nodded. ‘And where do intend for this illicit joining to take place?’ ‘My room or yours?’ he asked and she actually giggled. ‘You’re despicable!’ she said and sat up. ‘Do you think that because I’ve let you have your face between my thighs that you can just climb into my bed?’ ‘Not if you don’t want me to.’ He said and lay on his back with his hands behind his head. She screwed her body around and looked down at him. ‘There it is!’ she said suddenly. He opened his eyes and looked at her quizzically. ‘The arrogant rake!’ She stood up suddenly and brushed her skirts down. ‘Its alright Robert Bosworth. I don’t intend to be your next conquest. But thank you for the taster.’ She said tartly and walked away towards the house. Taster? He thought in shock as it dawned on him she was actually walking away. He thought about what she’s said. Am I just an arrogant rake? I suppose if I want her to take my suit seriously, I shouldn’t have given her an oral under the oak tree. Its a pity, she really tasted quite good and she’s the only girl I’ve felt like having oral sex with for a very long time! Elizabeth arrived back on the terrace, just as Sarah and Argyll got back from their ride and Mrs. Simmons brought out tea. ‘Where’s Robert?’ Lady Verity asked pointedly. Elizabeth smiled brightly. ‘I left him on his back under the oak tree thinking about what he really is and what he really wants!’ ‘The devil you did!’ Argyll exploded. ‘Did you actually call him a rake?’ ‘I did. I called him an arrogant rake, actually.’ She smiled as she accepted tea from Lady Verity. ‘If he asked you to marry him, would you?’ Lady Verity asked. ‘He won’t do that until he’s sorted through his emotions. At the moment he can’t decide whether he loves me or not!’ ‘How do you know that?’ Argyll asked. She gave him a stern look.
