Chapter 16

Her world exploded in an inner fire that transformed into crystalline ecstasy that shattered inside of her. She cried out but wasn’t sure if it was her own voice calling his name as wave after wave rocked through her to finally ebb to a warm, delectable glow.

It was several long seconds before she returned to her senses and realized that Rowan was just holding her now, kissing her cheek and stroking her hair.

“Well?” he asked softly.

“You’re still dressed, Dr. West.”

He laughed and kissed her before he sat up. “I can amend that, if you have the strength. But if you’d rather wait—”

Gayle sat up as quick as a cat and ignored the trembling in her thighs as a new excitement seized her. She began to unbutton his white linen shirt but lost a little momentum when the heat of his body through the thin material distracted her. It was like touching a firm, hot wall through muslin, and at the first hint of crisp dark auburn hair on his chest, she felt like swooning in anticipation.

His hands took over, making quick work of his shirt and demonstrating no regard for slowing to preserve buttons. She pushed back to watch, breathlessly taking in the sight of Rowan stripping himself out of his clothes.

Shy. I should be shy. But I can’t seem to take my eyes off him. Whatever maidenly instincts I should have to cover my face or blush and look away . . . I cannot find them now. Oh, God, he’s so beautiful....

Skin, muscles, and the delightful answer to her question . . . an even darker auburn swirl of chest hair across his chest only to narrow to a tantalizing line that disappeared into the linen of his breeches.

Skin, muscles, nerves, sinew, and bone made a man, but as Rowan was revealed to her, Gayle wasn’t sure how anything prepared a woman for the realities of it. He was pulsing with power, rippling muscles and lean lines that were directly opposed to her soft curves, and she couldn’t help but stare at the proud tower of his arousal. It jutted out from his hips from a thatch of dark curls, far thicker and longer than she’d guessed, with a swollen head the size and shape of a plum. She hesitated to consider the question of capacity. I was insane at the use of a single finger inside of me. What will I be once I am well used with his cock?

There’s not a statue or painting at an art museum that comes close.

It looked like a weapon, but also to her excited eyes, like a thing of beauty.

“I’ve never had a woman watch me undress before.”

“Does it . . . displease you?”

“No. I like it very much.”

“You put all the drawings in my books to shame, Rowan. I . . . It’s as though I’ve never seen a man before. Not that I have—but Hunter’s Examination of the Physiology of Man made me confident I had.”

He smiled. “What do you want to do, Gayle? I could sit here for a while, but I’m risking a cold.
