Chapter Fourteen

Nothing made sense anymore, only the glide of his mouth against hers. His kisses cascaded over her chin, until he found the hollow at her throat. His tortuous tongue flicked back and forth across her skin. Kate angled her head away, stretching out her neck to give him better access. The pressure of his lips made her insides clench with lust, until her mind was hazy. Only their clothes stood between them, fears cleared away by the devotion in their caresses.

He returned to her and she kissed him again recklessly, forgetting all her reasons why she’d resisted this until now. Forgetting the way he’d fled from London, the accusations that had been made against her father’s company, the struggles she’d had, everything but the sheer weight of his body pressed up against her own and the deliciousness taste of him. Fervor erupted between them. His lips smashed against hers, bruising tender skin, the pain only making her feel more alive.

Daniel understood her past and did not condemn her. She needed him as he needed her, the wildness she’d held back bursting at the surface.

His fingers brushed against her breasts. She leaned into his touch, straining against the busk in the center of her corset, resenting the restriction. He dragged his thumb across her right breast, moving the tattered gray fabric back and forth with his movement against her sensitive skin. With each stroke, pleasure built up within her, devilish, wicked pleasure that she could not deny–would not want to, for it had been all she could think of since he’d come back.

She couldn’t get close enough to him, couldn’t lean far enough into his touch. He pulled back, caught her eye. His lips were red from her kisses. A whimper fell from her lips, a sign of weakness that gave her no shame.

He swung around the other side of her, undoing the many back buttons of her bodice. Some had popped off in the explosion, making his work simpler. She found it somehow fitting that this time with Daniel would be when she looked out-of-sorts. That’s what they were to each other: chaotic, complicated, and utterly consuming.

He worked the long sleeves down her arms, his touch burning her. He unclasped the brass fixtures that joined her bodice to her skirt and then lifted her up. She kicked off her skirt with far more speed than she should have been able to muster–than was proper.

She wasn’t a proper lady anymore, damn it.

He tackled next her petticoat with its heavy corded twine rings, throwing the offending garment off the bed and toward the County Cork trunk in the corner of his room.

She wore a simple corset, modified so she could lace it up without the help of a maid: spiral laced in the back, but with cords that came forward and weaved into tabs in the front. The two strings tied together in a bow underneath her breasts, a bow his heavy-lidded gaze fastened on. His tongue darted out to wet his lips before he made quick work of the laces, freeing her breasts to him.
