Let Them Kneel (kaelani and Julian) novel Chapter 209

Chapter 209

She hesitated only a second before placing her hand in his.

He led her out into the living area, the soft music from the record player filling the space as he guided her into position. Gently, he lifted her arms, settling them around his neck, his hands finding her waist with quiet certainty.

“Just follow me,” he said.

They began to move, slow and unhurried, the rhythm easy enough to fall into without thought.

Kaelani’s gaze stayed on his, steady and searching, while her senses sharpened to everything about him. His scent wrapped around her, cedarwood and spice, warm and tantalizing, something that felt both new and impossibly familiar at the same time.

She exhaled softly, her body easing into the movement as she let him lead.

Just as Kaelani began to settle into the rhythm, Julian shifted his hold, guiding her into a slow turn.

She followed his lead, the movement smooth and unhurried, until her back met his chest, the space between them disappearing as he drew her in.

His hands settled at her waist again, steady and sure, as they continued to sway to the music.

Kaelani’s breath caught softly, her body reacting before her mind could catch up to the change in proximity.

Julian’s head dipped slightly, his nose brushing along the curve of her neck as he breathed her in.

The scent of her enveloped him, immediate and consuming, sending a sharp awareness through every nerve in his body.

He held her there, the rhythm slowing as the connection between them tightened with every second.

Kaelani’s eyes closed, her head tilting slightly as she leaned into the sensation of his face at her neck, a slow heat building beneath her skin.

Her body moved with his, but there was nothing passive in it now. She pressed back into him without thinking, her hands sliding over his forearms, feeling the tension in the muscle beneath her fingertips, the strength in the way he held her.

Behind her, she could feel him–solid, warm, every line of him defined through the thin space between them. The rise and fall of his chest, the way his breath had begun to change, deeper now, less controlled.

The shift in him wasn’t subtle. Neither was the sudden press of his cock against her ass, growing harder with every second.

Julian suddenly stepped back, creating space where there hadn’t been any.

His breath came heavier now, controlled but strained, as he dragged a hand through his hair, forcing himself to

reset.

“I’m sorry,” he said, his voice rougher than before. “I’m… really trying to keep it together here.”

In a flash of violet light, Kaelani vanished from in front of him-

only to reappear an instant later in his arms.

Her arms locked around his neck, her legs wrapping around him as her body pressed firmly against his

Her lips crashed into his, the kiss immediate and unrestrained, full of want of need that had been building far too long to ignore.

Julian’s hands gripped her ass firmly, lifting her slightly as he kissed her back with equal force.

Nothing had ever felt like this.

Nothing compared to the way she fit against him—the only woman he’d ever wanted like this… wanting him just as much.

She caught his lower lip between her teeth, the bite light, teasing, meant to provoke more than restrain. At the same time, she pressed her core against his hard length, deliberate in the way she moved, leaving no question of what she wanted.
