"Four or five is a better number." He nuzzled my neck and gently grazed his teeth over the sensitive patch there.

"When you can carry and deliver them, we'll discuss four or five."

Laughing, Yuri plucked the pins from my hair. The silky waves fell around my shoulders. "We'll table that discussion until next year."

My eyes widened. "Next year? But we-"

"Later," he murmured and silenced me with an erotically charged kiss. When he crouched down and grasped the backs of my thighs, I hopped up and wrapped my legs around his trim waist. He carried me to the bed and placed me in the center.

Pinned beneath him, I breathed excitedly. Already my pussy throbbed and ached to be filled by his big cock. I wanted his masterful hands and that wicked mouth on me. Arching up against the hard heat of him, I silently begged him to ravish me.

Grinning with mischief, he dragged two long silk straps from under the pillows. "Do you remember that night outside Monaco when I asked if you wanted me to tie you up?"

"Yes." I vibrated with arousal and anticipation.

"Do you still want me to do that?"

"Yes." My trembling voice betrayed my enthusiasm. "Tie me up. Take me."

He wasted no time in binding my wrists and securing them overhead. A frightening memory tried to resurface but I refused to let that ugly thing intrude upon this wonderful, intimate experience. He must have seen the flash of panic on my face.

Cupping my face, Yuri kissed me with such tenderness and love that it brought tears to my eyes. "You're safe with me."

"I trust you." There was a time when I never could have imagined saying those words to any man. With his love and patience and willingness to risk it all to save me, Yuri had proven that he was worthy of that trust. He'd shown me the depth and strength of his love.

His eyes shimmered suspiciously as he caressed my naked skin and claimed my mouth with sinful kisses. "I know what it means to earn your trust. I will never-never-take that for granted."

And he wouldn't. He'd spend the rest of our lives together proving to me that he deserved that trust. I would spend the rest of our lives together basking in the glow of his love and endeavoring to show him every day how much he meant to me.

"You've made me so incredibly happy, Yuri."

"I know, Kitten." He placed a noisy kiss on my breast. "Tonight, I plan to make to make you very, very happy."

"Oh?"

"Yes." He playfully walked his fingers down my belly. Closing my eyes, I spread my thighs for him and sighed with pleasure. "And I think I'll start right about here..."
