Chapter 9
Francine felt his hands on her calf, slipping just underneath her skirt. She felt the heat of him and the quiet tremble in his fingers. But looking into his eyes, she saw a silent anguish. And though he touched her leg, he did not move beyond that.
"Anthony?"
He closed his eyes, and she felt him shudder. "This is not the way. We are too exposed here." He squeezed her leg. "You deserve so much better."
She pushed herself up, latching onto his biceps to hold herself upright. She felt the strength of his muscles, and she also remembered the way he kissed her—all banked desire and a quiet ownership that never failed to thrill her. Never had she thought she'd feel such possessiveness from a man. Not for her. Not fat, ugly, mean Francine.
"Now, Anthony," she whispered. "Don't stop. I want to know. I want to..." She cut off her words, but in her mind they echoed loudly. Special. She wanted to feel special. And only he gave that to her.
"But—"
She kissed him. Then she did the boldest thing she'd ever done in her life. She scooted forward on the bench. She widened her legs and the abruptness of the movement brought his hand high on her thigh. Higher than her garter.
She tensed, but she didn't stop. She kissed him with all the wishes she had stored up inside her. Every little girl dream, every womanly fantasy was poured into that kiss. And he responded just as she wanted. His hand tightened on her thigh, his mouth became a thing alive, his tongue thrusting and tormenting her.
And while she was dueling tongue to tongue with him, his hand started to move. Over her thigh to the center between her legs. She gasped at that. No one else had ever touched her like that. It was too secret, too intimate. But he was relentless, and soon she felt his fingers tangle in her hair.
She gasped. Oh, the dangerous feel of him there! Forbidden. And he didn't stop. He curled his fingers into his palm, using the backs of his long fingers and his knuckles to press deeper between her thighs.
She opened for him. She didn't mean to, but their position on the bench forced her to. And as she widened, he pushed deeper, separating her folds, opening her as she never imagined possible.
She pulled away from his kiss, her eyes wide and her hands clutching him. She held on to his arms, clinging as what he did between her legs became all consuming.
"I... I don't know," she whispered, not even knowing where the words came from.
"It's all right," he said as his free hand stroked her hair away from her face. "I know."
"But..."
"Shhh. Just look at me. I have you safe."
She did as he wanted. She looked into his dark brown eyes and felt safe. Better yet, she felt an incredible excitement build in her stomach. She licked her lips, and his eyes riveted there. And when she tightened her hold on his arm, he smiled.
