Chapter 8

«^»

David woke up before sunrise, savoring the quiet of the room and the warmth of the woman snuggled against him. It was Friday and his time with Cara was already almost gone. Bethany and her family would be home the day after tomorrow and he would be in D.C., and he still hadn't told Cara he was leaving. Truth was, he was scared to tell her. They'd fought horribly the last time he'd announced his exit from her life. He didn't want it to happen again

His thoughts scattered as Cara sighed and rolled onto her back. He watched her eyelids fluttering slightly and knew she was waking. Unable to wait, he leaned over and kissed her the rest of the way awake.

Cara stretched, then wrapped her arms around his neck.

"What a wonderful way to wake up," she said.

"Are you good and awake?"

She smiled. "I think so, why?"

"I don't want it to be said that I took advantage of an unconscious woman."

She laughed as he pulled her nightgown over her head and tossed it aside, then rolled over on top of her, pinning her to the mattress with the weight of his body.

"Are you paying attention?" he growled.

Another laugh bubbled up her throat.

"Woman … I'm trying to be serious here."

Suddenly, the laughter was over. Cara had her legs locked around his waist and her arms around his neck.

"How serious?" she whispered.

"Oh, baby, let me show you the ways." Without foreplay.

Without sweet-nothing whispers.

Without warning.

Between one breath and the next, he was inside her.

Cara would look back on it later and realize that there was as much desperation in the act as there was love. But for now, she had no focus save the man above her and the hard, rhythmic pounding of his flesh against hers.

One minute spilled into the next and then the next and just when Cara thought she would die from the intensity, it shattered within her, splintering the power and flooding her body with a bone-melting ecstasy. She lay within his arms, her eyes closed, her heartbeat little more than a ricochet of its normal rhythm, while savoring the sensations from the act of perfect love.

She didn't know it wasn't over.

David paused, raising himself above her on tightly tensed arms, as if judging her expression. She groaned then sighed.

At that point, he seemed to shift gears.

She opened her eyes and looked up.

One slow, sensuous stroke after another, David started again, and all the while, he was watching her face. In her entire life, Cara had never felt so vulnerable or so loved.

A long minute passed, and then another, and time seemed to stop. There was nothing in their world but the sensual body-to-body hammer, seeking that fleeting and volatile burst of sweet pleasure. Sweat beaded across David's forehead and dropped into the valley between her breasts as, again, they danced the dance of love.

One moment Cara was aware of David above her, and then her mind suddenly blanked. Clutching his forearms, she arched beneath him, her eyes wide, unseeing.
