Legend is Grim Hammerhand is half wolf. Vowing never to marry, the muscular, red-haired warrior saves his passion for the battlefield and the forge. That is, until the woman he secretly lusts after is abducted.
Asgerd has loved Grim for years, only to be ignored by the object of her desire. She has eluded the bonds of marriage, hoping that someday Grim will notice her, but her dreams are shattered when she is captured and defiled by the brutal warrior Stein.
After the king sends Grim to rescue his daughter and claim Stein’s land, the passion between the couple finally ignites. In the end, Grim’s mistrust of all women could destroy their one true chance for happiness.
The following excerpt from NORTHMAN’S PLEASURE is for readers 18 and over.
Several people crowded in the doorway.
Grim turned toward Asgerd and raised himself on his elbow. He brushed hair from her face and held her gaze. He leaned toward her and covered her mouth in a gentle kiss.
“Go to it, Grim!” another man called.
He turned abruptly and said, “You’ve seen enough! Shut the door.”
“But–“
“Shut it!” he growled and picked up his sword that rested against the nearby wall.
“That’s enough everyone. We’ve seen enough,” Odd said, apparently noting his master’s anger. He closed the door, giving the couple privacy.
Grim turned back to Asgerd and asked, “Are you all right?”
“I’m fine. Thank you for being considerate. Stein never was.”
“Stein was a pig and he wasn’t your husband.”
“No,” she murmured. “He wasn’t. It’s hard to believe you are.”
His lips curved into a lopsided grin. “How do you mean that?”
“I mean I often wondered what it would be like if we… What I mean is–“
He silenced her with another kiss, this one deeper and more intimate than the last. His mouth moved gently against hers and he traced the shape of her lips with his tongue. She parted them and he slid his tongue into her mouth. He explored with slow thrusts.
Asgerd closed her eyes. Her tongue met his and engaged in a sensual dance. His beard felt a bit rough, but she loved the sensation. Moaning, she threaded her fingers through his hair.
He groaned and pressed her a little harder into the bed. Then he broke the kiss to nuzzle her neck. Beneath the covers, he caressed her arm, shoulder and finally her breast. He cupped it gently and kneaded it. It felt so good that Asgerd moaned again and arched her back, wanting him even closer, if possible.
No one had ever touched her like this, gently yet in a manner that turned her body to flame.
Grim pulled off the covers. A shiver rolled through Asgerd, but she soon warmed up. He kissed her collarbone and breasts. His tongue flicked first one nipple, then the other before he drew one of the sensitive nubs into his mouth and sucked it.
“Oh Grim,” Asgerd breathed, tightening her fingers in his hair. She writhed and he wrapped an arm around her, holding her snugly while his teeth worried her nipple and his tongue caressed it.
He took his time, concentrating fully on one breast before moving to her other. Asgerd’s hands roamed over his shoulders and back. She loved his warmth and strength and the play of muscles beneath his flesh.
