Nathan shifted against the warmth curled beside him and cracked open one eye at the unaccustomed sensation. A smile played on his lips as he gazed down at Catherine’s sleeping form, tucked protectively under his arm, her hair spread in wild abandon across her pillow. He closed his eyes and pulled her closer, last night still vivid in his mind. Never before had he given so much of himself to a woman. Dread came from that last thought but he quickly banished it, unwilling to let a split second of hesitation ruin what had been the most intense night he had ever experienced.

They had made love two more times during the night, each time different, each time giving and receiving more than before. The intensity almost worried Nathan. So many things had clicked between them, surprising given the short and rocky time they had known each other. Minutes passed before she tensed beside him and he knew without looking that she was awake. He ran a finger lightly across her arm and propped himself on his elbow, dropping a kiss on her shoulder as he did. “’Morning.”

Nathan fought the guilt that swept over him when she jumped in surprise at his voice and told himself that she wasn’t accustomed to waking up next to someone. Possessiveness stole through him as Catherine rolled over, the sheet and blanket held firmly in place under her chin. She studied him for a second longer than necessary before offering him a weak smile.

“Oh. Um, good morning.” She pulled back a bit when he tried to kiss her. He raised his brows in question, studying her.

“You don’t sound too sure about that.”

“No. I…” She shook her head and pushed herself to a sitting position, still clinging to the sheet. “I’m sorry. I just…I didn’t expect you to still be here.”

“I see,” he said, not seeing at all. “Mind if I ask why?”

Catherine studied him for a full minute then lowered her head. He sighed and sat up, not bothering to cover himself with the sheet as he tried to peek through the curtain of her hair. A blush stained her cheeks; he turned so he was facing her, then curled one hand around her neck and pulled her to him until their lips met. The kiss he gave her was gentle and soft but he still felt the beginnings of desire stir inside him.

“Did you want me to leave?” He whispered the question against her mouth then held his breath until she shook her head. She finally met his gaze, her anxiety clear in her dark eyes.

“I’m sorry. I’m just…” She waved her hand around them and let it fall back into her lap. “I’m not used to this.”

Nathan almost asked her if it was something she wanted to grow used to, then choked back the words. Instead he leaned forward and claimed her lips in another kiss, sighing when she melted against him. He tugged gently on the sheet then moaned when she let the cool material drop away from her heated flesh.
