At ten Ben and Sasha left, along with a few other guests, but the party was still going inside. Their voices were hoarse and they didn’t talk very much on the way to the Watering Hole. The air had turned even colder and though they had been a little overheated when they’d left, they were soon chilled again.

Ben put an arm around Sasha and drew her closer against his side. She leaned her head on his shoulder and he could smell her lavender scent.

“Are you tired?” he asked as he kissed the side of her head.

“A little. You weren’t kidding when you told me what chaos it would be,” she said.

Ben chuckled. “I have to hand it to the Dwyers; they sure throw one heck of a party.”

The Watering Hole loomed before them and Ben said, “How about I take you to the hotel, since it’s getting later? I can lead Ingrid over tomorrow morning for you.”

“I think that perhaps I’m not ready to go to the hotel yet,” Sasha said.

“Oh?” he smiled. “And why would that be?”

Sasha screwed up her courage and turned her face up to his. She put her hand on his jaw and pulled him down so she could press her lips to his mouth. At first touch, his lips were cold, as were hers, but they quickly warmed as Ben bent over her and deepened the kiss. Sasha swore her head spun with the heady feelings he created in her as he held her tighter.

Ben felt the change of movement in the buggy and quickly broke the kiss to guide Othello to the Watering Hole properly. He drove around back to the stable there and pulled the horse to a halt. Ben helped her down and gave her the key to the outside apartment door.

“Go ahead on up out of the cold. I’ll get Othello unhitched and rubbed down and be up,” Ben said.

Sasha smiled and quickly ascended the stairs. She unlocked the door and went inside. The door led into his kitchen. Finding a lamp, Sasha lit it and noticed that the apartment was chilly. Going into the parlor, Sasha started a fire in the hearth. She was suddenly nervous.

This was what she wanted, wasn’t it? She loved Ben and wanted him like she’d never wanted anything else. Didn’t she want to give herself to him and take the pleasure he promised? She instinctively knew that he would make good on it. It was just that it had been so long since she’d been with a man and she wasn’t at all sure of her skill in the matter.

Sasha paced as she fought with herself about it. But how did Ben feel about her? That he desired her was apparent, but how did he feel about her? She put her hands to her face and stood still. What do I do? He’s expecting…but he’s a gentleman. If I tell him no, he’ll honor that…but will he think I don’t know what I want? Damn
