CHAPTER ELEVEN

SUTTON WOKE THE WAY she always did—abruptly, without any transition from sleep to wakefulness, five minutes before her alarm. But this morning, something was different. She could feel it beneath her skin, even before she looked to her left and saw Jane sleeping beside her, one arm curled around her head and the other hand splayed across her stomach. Affection rushed through her at the sight, and she felt a smile curve her lips. Asleep, there was an air of vulnerability about Jane that Sutton had never perceived before, and it made her feel protective even as the sight of her nearly naked body rekindled Sutton’s desire.

Their chemistry last night had been incredible—far, far beyond anything else Sutton had ever experienced. Her face flashed hot at the memory of Jane pleading for the chance to touch her. In granting that wish, she had given Jane the power to turn the tables, and that wasn’t like her. In her previous sexual encounters—not that there were all that many to speak of—Sutton had always preferred to be in control. But something about Jane made it easy for her to let down her guard and relax. And the way Jane had touched her, at once gently and possessively, had driven her absolutely wild.

Mesmerized by the steady rhythm of Jane’s breathing, she couldn’t help but focus in on her breasts, compact and topped by dark brown nipples. If she concentrated, she could remember exactly how they had hardened beneath her tongue as Jane grew closer and closer to release. Her field of vision narrowed, and her throat convulsed in a swallow as arousal burned away the last of her fatigue.

With a rueful shake of her head, she disentangled herself from the sheets and padded toward her bathroom. Jane needed to sleep, not to be jumped before the sun even came up. And she had to get to the hospital, where a busy morning of rounds awaited. With thoughts of work came thoughts of her father, and in an attempt to put him out of her head, she splashed cold water on her face more vigorously than she had intended.

After putting in her contacts, Sutton stared at her reflection. Aside from the lingering blush, she looked no different than she had yesterday. And yet, over the past twelve hours, she had chosen a career path, stood up to her parents, and had the best sex of her life. The thought gave her pause. Calling it that—even only in her thoughts—felt wrong, somehow. She and Jane had shared a night of intimacy. It had been beautiful as well as pleasurable, and she didn’t want to cheapen it.

When she reentered the bedroom, she found that Jane had turned over in her sleep. She was clutching her pillow with both hands, and the sheet had bunched up around her waist. Sutton’s mouth went dry at the sight, and before she could stop herself, she was kneeling on the bed. The alarm clock taunted her with its large red numbers, and she did a quick mental calculation.
