Brigan set Cat down on shaking, weak legs. Pleasure still reverberated through her body; the rumbling moan he’d given when he’d climaxed still echoed in her mind. With his hands lingering on her hips, he waited until she got her bearings before stepping back. She felt the way he watched her steadily, his dark eyes guarded.

“Are you all right?” he asked quietly. “You’re not tired?”

Cat nodded and then shook her head, unable to find words but unsure which question to answer. She felt euphoric, dazed, wholly worshipped.

“You can lie down on the bed if you need to rest,” he said, his voice carrying an edge of confusion.

She shook her head again. “I’m not tired.” In truth, she couldn’t imagine sleep right now. What he’d just done to her . . . she wasn’t sure she had the words to describe it. She had never been with a man this strong, had never been with a lover this attuned to her pleasure. It had been hard, and wild, and frantic.

But it had also been joyful and intimate, like opening a door to a secret world.

To his secret world.

Infatuated, Cat looked up at his face, but his gaze avoided hers as he zipped up his pants. She felt the full extent of her nudity but didn’t bother to hide.

“Are you all right?” she asked, and he nodded, but she had the sense that he was lying. “Brigan, look at me.”

Finally, he lifted his eyes to hers, but slowly, dragging his focus from her hips up over her stomach, her breasts, her throat, her mouth.

“I’m not going to see you again, am I?” she asked, her stomach falling in realization.

Hesitating, he shook his head.

“Why?”

His eyes shuttered, the playful light extinguishing. “Because, little lamb, it doesn’t work that way.”

Brigan bent, collecting her clothes for her and wordlessly helping her back into them. Her underwear and bra, which he fastened for her. He held her leggings as she stepped into them one foot after the other and eased them up her legs and over her hips. He angled her sweater over her head and guided each arm inside before sliding it down her body, looking as miserable as she felt. Finally, he tugged her cap over her head and tidied her hair over her shoulders.

“Am I presentable?” she asked, forcing levity into her voice and smiling up at him. The idea of not seeing him again made her unbearably sad.

“No one would look at you and have the faintest idea what we’ve been up to.”

“I’m not sure that’s true,” she said. “It smells like sex in here.”

He took a long, slow inhale. “That it does, my darling.”

Brigan bent, resting his lips over hers for a long, soft beat, but when she opened her eyes, he was gone.
