Chapter Twelve

“Romantic feeling is a terrible reason for a woman to marry and make herself little more than the legal of appendage of a man; it is only palatable because the alternative rationales for embarking upon the wedded estate are so much worse.” – Polly Dicax

Honora went utterly motionless, though her pulse raced at a breakneck pace that left her breathless and unsteady. Surely what Lucas proposed to do was scandalous, shocking, appalling.

Thrilling.

“You can— That is, you want to do such a thing?” she asked, caught between alarm and fascination. “Put your mouth there?”

He raised his head and gazed up at her, his eyes dark and feverish with longing. “Oh, aye, querida. I want to do that as much as—or perhaps even more than—I want to fuck you…and I want to fuck you very, very much.”

Oh. My. Goodness.

Except goodness had nothing to do with it. Every word from his mouth was a wicked temptation, and resistance was not merely useless but impossible. He must be mad to want to do such a depraved thing and yet, when she imagined him pressing his lips to those lips, she not disgusted by the idea but wildly aroused.

“You can say no if you really dislike the idea,” he assured her. “And once I start, you can ask me to stop if it does not please you. But I think it will please you very much indeed.”

Her stomach fluttering as if an entire flock of birds had become trapped inside it, she nodded. The smile that lit his face was brighter and warmer than the sun on a clear summer day, and she was fiercely glad she hadn’t the will to refuse him.

He gathered her skirts up to her knees and then disappeared underneath them, the voluminous blue fabric settling back around him and almost entirely concealing him. The fancy struck her that, if anyone were to enter the room and find her perched there, they might not even realize he was crouched between her thighs unless they happened to see his booted feet poking out from beneath the hem. She had a fleeting image of attempting to carry on a conversation with someone while Lucas, hidden from view, kissed and licked and petted her most private and sensitive places, and a gusty moan escaped her.

“I haven’t even begun,” Lucas said in mock reproof. His fingers coasted up her hips to the waistband of her drawers. “First, let’s get these off.”

He untied the string that cinched them in place and, with her assistance, drew them down over her hips and bottom. When the garment was free of her feet, he placed his palms on the insides of her knees and pulled her forward until she was balanced so precariously on the edge of the desk that she feared she would slip off. She needn’t have worried, however, for he settled her legs over his shoulders and gripped her hips, anchoring her securely in place.

And then…oh God, and then his bearded cheeks grazed the delicate skin on the insides of her thighs.
