Chapter 17: Every Room

The front door had barely shut when he put her back against it.

The latch dug into her spine.

She did not care at all, because his mouth was on hers and his hands were already under her skirt.

"I said every room," Caelrin murmured against her lips. "This is the first one."

"It's a hallway."

"It is a room with a door that locks and a wall that holds you."

He pulled her shirt open and the buttons skittered across the floorboards.

"I have been silent for a hundred and sixty years," he said, kissing her throat. "Tonight you will hear all of it."

"All of what?"

"You walk like you are late for something wonderful."

She laughed, breathless.

"You hum when you cut onions, and you are always off the note, and I would give my sword to hear it every morning."

"You hate my humming."

"I love it. I stand at the fence and pretend to mend the post."

His hand cupped her through her underthings, hot and heavy, and her head thumped back on the door.

He slid the cloth aside and rubbed two fingers along her, slow, and found her already wet.

"I think of this every time you lean over the beans," he said in her ear. "Every time. I am a disgrace."

"You're a liar," she gasped. "You never looked."

"I looked so much I burned the barley."

She was laughing and moaning at once when he pushed two fingers into her and pressed his thumb on her clit.

He worked her against the door with quick steady strokes, watching her face.

"Good," he said. "Look how well you take my hand. Look how you open for me."

"Caelrin."

"Say it again."

"Caelrin. Oh. I'm."

"Come for me, my heart."

She came with her nails dug into his shoulders and her cry swallowed in his kiss.

"One," said Caelrin, and her knees buckled.

"You're counting."

"I intend to count to the morning. Come."

He swept her into his arms and carried her into the front room, where the old armchair sat by the dark window.

He set her on the arm of it, with her back against the wing, and knelt on the rug.
