CHAPTER SEVEN

SAMANTHA woke first, slowly, sleepily. Her eyes finally fluttered open, widening when she saw the foot of the bed bathed in light.

All that had happened the night before flooded back, as sharply as the sun’s rays that were streaming through the plate-glass window above her head. Rolling over carefully, her wide hazel eyes took in Guy’s sleeping form. He was well over on his side, his back to her, the pale blue sheet draped carelessly around his hips.

Her breathing quickened as her gaze followed the shape of his body upwards, the indentation at his waist, the rapidly broadening chest, the wide, very male shoulders, the strong muscles in his neck, the tangled mass of thick straight brown hair, looking longer than it did when neatly groomed around his head.

Would she remember what he looked like naked in years to come? came the suddenly bleak thought. Would she be able to recapture for her private dream-world his incredible passion, his unexpected tenderness towards her afterwards?

‘Don’t let me get pregnant too quickly, lord,’ she prayed softly under her breath. ‘Give me a few months of happiness, of feeling like this, like a woman loved, a woman in every sense of the word.’

She sighed, and stretched her arms languorously above her head, savouring the contentment in her body. Yet no sooner had she begun to think she was at peace, at least physically, than her reminiscing had a stirring effect, teasing her brain with memories of what had transpired between them. She closed her eyes and began to relive those amazing moments from when she’d been standing before him, blindfolded and half naked, when his hands had...

Her eyes snapped open as a surge of desire struck deep and hard. My God, she thought frantically. I’m worse, not better! I want him more now than ever!

Stifling a groan, she eased her legs over the side of the bed and sat up, pushing her own tangled mass of hair out of her eyes. A shower, she decided, and, giving Guy’s still unconscious state a grateful glance, gingerly transported her naked self from the bed to the bathroom.

She stayed under the hot water longer than strictly necessary, considering she wasn’t shampooing her hair. But the alternative was facing Guy. She imagined he would probably have been awakened by the sound of the gushing jets of water by now.

Uncertainty and a residue of shyness squirmed through Samantha as she envisaged emerging from the room to encounter his knowing gaze. She had no idea what he would want of her for the rest of the weekend, whether he expected her to stay with him for the whole two days, or how often he would make love to her. She tried not to think too deeply about this last matter, for it had the effect of making her drop the soap and generally lose what little composure she was desperately trying to find.

It was imperative that she keep her resolve of last night, that of being her usual cool self when they were out of bed.
