Chapter 4

Bailey stepped out of the steamy shower cubicle and wrapped herself in the soft white hotel towel. Her skin glowed pink and healthy, but as she bound her hair in a smaller towel her stomach growled, low and demanding.

She couldn’t remember the last time she had eaten.

She patted her skin dry, pulled on the matching bra and panties and admired herself in the full length mirror for a moment. A small smile curved her lips. The set was a perfect fit; although, the bra had little gel boosters in the bottom curve of the cups and gave her a cleavage she’d never noticed she had. She peered closer.

“Wow.”

Her warmed skin glowed, the ivory color of the lingerie bringing out the peachy tone of her flesh. Her hair curled madly after being scrubbed with the towel.

It had been over an hour since the electricity had come back on and hot water had become available, but the cowboy hadn’t returned. She should go and apologize, let him know she had been dumped.

She glanced at the ring on the side of the sink, contemplated putting it on, and then thought better of it. What was the point? She was no longer getting engaged. She picked it up and took it into the bedroom where she placed it carefully in the box on the bedside table.

She’d tried to call her daddy, but the connection had been impossible. She wondered how he would react when he met Phillip’s parents and they told him the engagement was off. He was going to be so pissed she hadn’t managed to tell him before they turned up at the senators’ house. There was nothing she could do about it. She hadn’t even gotten a strong enough signal to leave a message.

Trepidation skittered across her rapidly cooling flesh as she imagined what Sebastian would say when she let him know she was a free agent. It opened the floodgates for him to step in and continue his deliberate seduction of her, but she needed to make her mind up if it was going to be enough. Would one night with Sebastian cure her of her youthful memories of lust and love, or would it ruin her chances forever of finding someone else?

She was under no illusion that Sebastian wasn’t a keeper. She’d never known him have a long-term relationship with any woman. Why would he start with her, just because they’d had a chance meeting and they’d both reeled with desire for each other? It didn’t mean he had any other feelings for her.

Mind made up, she wrapped Sebastian’s warm, comforting coat around her, discretely covering her pretty underwear, and padded barefoot out of her room across the hall to give a gentle tap on his door.

He’d barely swung it open before she started to blurt out her rehearsed speech, knowing what would happen once she let him know she was a free woman.

“Hi, I came to…” She stuttered to a halt, sniffed.“Is that food I can smell?”

A delicious, warm aroma drifted from his room making her stomach rumble and her mouth water.
