Semua Bab When Dreams Are Made: Bab 41 - Bab 50

Chapter 41On the evening of the fourth day, Nancy stirred from her unconsciousness. She slowly opened her eyes and tried to adjust it to the blinding light in the room, but the light was too much so she shut her eyes immediately. And then she heard the faint voices of people around her. And then she tried to move, to tell them how much her throat burned with dryness but the sharp pain in her neck had her lying back. She tried again, but that was when she realized that she was lying on her stomach, and surely that was odd. In the next instant she realized that her entire body was stiff, especially her back which felt like it was on fire.Pain swamped her, and she hissed out her breath, trying hard to breath slowly without gasping. She heard the room go still for an instant before someone ran to her side, and then another person followed. She heard them gasp in relief and felt someone take her hand. She couldn't even feel the touch, it almost felt like her entire body had shut down. Na

Chapter 43Much to Nancy's dismay that evening, each of the members of the Lincoln's family pulled up at the house in coach. The first coach carried the elders; Douglas and Marylyn Lincoln. The second coach carried Daniel Lincoln, his wife, Lucille Lincoln and their daughter, Kylie. They all trooped into the dinning, early as usual. Each one taking a moment to observe the interior of the house since it was their first time there, except for Daniel and his wife of course.Derek was already dressed by the time his parents arrived but his wife wasn't. She had spent the thirty minutes he had given her sulking, he knew she was doing it deliberately just to delay her appearance at the table so he ignored her completely, taking the time to adorn himself to his satisfaction. His own mood had improved greatly since she woke up from her coma, and he intended to keep it that way. Trying as much as possible to avoid any deep altercation with Nancy."We will all be waiting for you downstairs, Coff

Chapter 45The first thrust was a force that had her grabbing the sheets even tighter, he paused after that first thrust and hugged her from behind, with him still inside her. Nancy could feel him, she could feel his whole length stretching her insides, urging her to open up to him, to let herself go. But at the same time, the pleasure was dulling her senses, she could barely keep her eyes open, even her legs were too weak to carry. If Derek was not holding her, she was sure she would have fallen a long time ago, but he was steadying her with his hands and his large form that covered her as she bent there. At the same time, his other hand was snaking to her breast, playing with it, he was fondling her nipples in a way that she felt like she would drop dead with sheer pleasure.Derek leaned against, licked her neck down to her ear and let his mouth remain there. He had noticed how she shuddered each time his mouth found her ears, it made him even harder than he was. Nancy could almost f

Chapter 47It took Nancy a week to wait for Derek to see reasons with her and change his mind about not letting her have her way concerning what she wanted to do. But she waited that long mostly because she wanted to heal totally, from the wound and to make up for the days she had spent away from Victory, who wouldn't let her out of it's sight now without trailing after her. The house was getting filled without activities again as the day went by and since Derek was always there to direct the servants on what to do, Nancy saw him daily now, in the mornings when he went for his customary ride, which Nancy found out was a tradition for him and most days in the afternoon too. But some nights he spent away from her, either avoiding her intentionally or busying himself with his book of accounts.Each time he returned to her after a night spent away, he would turn the sweaty stallion over to her to feed and clean. He had also taken it upon himself to make sure she took care of his horse, h

Chapter 49He changed his mind about sleeping alone in his room that night and decided to join her in their bedroom. Nancy was surprised to see him come in fifteen minutes after she had put Victory to sleep beside the bed and was struggling to find sleep herself, she did not try to hide that surprise. Derek had no plans to say anything to her though, he just walked to his side of the bed and lay down there facing the ceiling. There was a lot to bother him and yet nothing to think about, he had decided long ago that he was going to go back with Carl. If anything, to keep him busy, being a warrior was something he enjoyed doing, fighting to save his life and his people and it was something he had trained himself to do very well, which was why he was in charge of his men, a battalion. The SmithVile and Ludaville were people he knew respectively in past times. Seeing them at loggerheads was not something new but seeing the fight escalate to a point of war and bloodshed. Naturally, Derek
