CHAPTER SIX

ETHAN’S HANDS SLID into Emily’s hair, his mouth nibbling across her sun-warmed cheek to meet her lips, stroking them apart with his tongue, each kiss deeper and slower than the last until they were both swaying to a silent rhythm, drunk with the taste of each other. The rich, sensual perfume of the roses was suddenly more intense in the air around them, heady with notes of sweet musk, the lazy hum of the foraging bees blending with the sexy hum of Emily’s body to make her very bones seem to sing with pleasure.

Her arms wrapped around his lean waist as she gloried in the freedom to touch him the way she had imagined touching him in the secrecy of her lonely bed. The hands cupping her head drifted, stroking down the sides of her neck to the hollows of her throat, splaying sensuously across the soft triangle of skin bared by the open collar of her blouse, and toying suggestively with the top button.

She ached for him to go further, but the distant drone of a small plane suddenly made her aware of their exposed surroundings and she pulled back, glancing nervously up at the verandah of the house, the flat rail of which was just visible above the banked terraces, half expecting to see Mrs Cooper peering down at them in shocked disapproval.

‘Someone might see us…’ she murmured reluctantly, brushing his fingers from the button, disappointed when his hands obediently dropped to rest on her waist. His eyes gleamed at the sight of her sulky lower lip.

Shunting backwards, he bent and buried his face against the narrow band of honey-coloured flesh between the two strips of fabric, rubbing his rough jaw against the satiny softness, his mouth opening over her neat belly button, his warm tongue darting in to stroke and suckle at the tiny hollow.

Shivers of delight prickled across Emily’s abdomen and she plunged her hands into his fire-flecked dark hair, half in protest, half encouragement.

‘Ethan!’ Her fear of discovery mingled with a thrill of reckless abandonment as his tongue painted a delicate line from hip to hip across her lower belly, before going back to play in the sensitive little dip. ‘We shouldn’t…’ she quavered. ‘What if somebody comes?’

She heard the deep burr of his laugh, felt it whisper damply across her quivering flesh and reverberate through his well-shaped skull.
