Jamie POV:

Love! Meh wife loved me. I dinna think I have ever felt such joy in meh life hearing those words. I dinna waste another second before reaching out and grabbing her to me. I fiercely brought my lips down on hers and savored the taste of her sweet lips on mine. She made a mewling sound like a wee cat and I wanted to bed her right here and now, I ran my hands down her back grabbing on to her bottom and pulling her even closer to me, letting her feel how much I wanted her. She sighed again in excitement and that was all the encouragement I needed.

I walked us back to the door and bolted it before my hands quickly fought with her layers of skirts, getting them up and around her so I may take her and take her quickly, while I knew she deserved better I coulda hold myself back, I would sooner expire on the spot if I did not sink myself into her now.

"Jamie," my Sorcha said in a breathy plea getting my attention I pulled back to look at her golden whisky eyes...

"Say it again."

Claire looked at me her eyes needing a moment to focus through the haze of lust that had surrounded us.

"I love you."

Again my mouth dove back to hers as I lifter her off the ground so she might wrap her legs around me.

and as I entered her I told her in turn, "I love you too."

"Yes, Jamie! Oh God, yes take me."

And I did, I took her hard right against the door wanting the whole damn castle to hear us, to know we belong to each other and no one will ever come between us.
