Chapter Eleven

‘Michael?’

She stared at the strong features softened by lovemaking and took a swift heartening breath. ‘About Fulton’s. My father really does only have the Conchita left.’

‘I see.’ His expression became carefully blank, shuttering his thoughts on the matter. Yet she didn’t think he was displeased. Perhaps because she’d told him the truth right from the beginning?

‘I hope you are not too disappointed.’

He raised her hand to his lips. He turned it over and kissed her palm, his lips warm and dry, his gaze on her face. ‘How can I be disappointed when I have you?’

A soft velvet touch. A shiver ran down her spine. Her body tightened with yearning. She fought the insidious longing, forced her mind to ignore the clamouring of her body for his touch. He still didn’t know about the debts. But those were Father’s and not hers to discuss. ‘I will do everything I can to help restore the business.’

Regret flickered in his eyes. ‘It doesn’t matter.’

But it did, she could see that it did in the way his gaze seemed to turn in on itself. ‘Your entry into society is assured,’ she said almost wildly.

A knock sounded at the door. ‘Cap’n? Mr Wishart needs you on deck.’

He glanced over his shoulder at the door, then back to her.

‘Cap’n.’ Simpson again. ‘Mr Wishart says it’s urgent.’

‘Blast,’ he said and rushed out of the door.
