Chapter 13
As was his habit, the moment Thorne opened his eyes, he was wide awake, alert and aware. But he did not instantly rise, as was also his habit. Nay, on this particular morn, he had reason to linger.
The reason lay pressed against his side, beautifully naked and sleek.
Ah, she was a temptress, this new bride of his, a bewitching temptress who could easily become an obsession. But never would he admit such to her, for this lovely wench he now called wife needed no further weapons to use against him— that tongue of hers was like the lashing of a whip! Nay, he'd admit to no such weakness for her, physical or otherwise, for he'd not put it past her to use such power to her advantage.
But that did not stop him from savoring her beauty. He shifted slightly and eased the sheet away from the graceful slope of her shoulder that he might appreciate her more fully. Her hair lay spread beneath her, tangled skeins of gold and red. His gaze boldly swept the length of her, lingering on gently quivering breasts, rising and falling now with a soft sigh. Her skin was flawless, pale and smooth. He drew a finger down the flare of her hip; he had discovered last night that his hand just spanned the hollow of her belly, for she was unearthly slender despite her height.
He had also learned that despite the enmity that raged between them, neither he nor she could deny the fiery heat of desire that erupted between them. Oh, the lady had protested, he recalled with satisfaction. But though no other of her fair sex had ever claimed his heart—nor would!—Thorne knew well and true how to arouse a woman to a fever pitch of passion ,.. and see to his own in the bargain.
Aye, he had overcome his wife's protests ... and no doubt would yet again.
For even though he disliked the seething pulse of desire she roused in him so easily, he was powerless to resist her sensual allure.
She stirred, presenting the naked length of her back to him. Unable to resist, he pressed his lips against the flare of her shoulder. The sweet scent of her was dizzying. His hands filled with the up-thrusting bounty of her breasts. A primitive satisfaction flared when she arched into his caress, her nipples peaking hard and tight against his palm. She was exquisitely sensitive there, he decided ... and elsewhere as well.
One hand drifted down to the sweet triangle below, sliding through the golden thatch there. Recalling the silken clasp of that part of her around his throbbing member last night made his loins tighten and swell all over again. He touched with delicate demand and earned a tremor of reaction in return. Was she awake? He turned her in his arms.
His palm laid claim to one silken flank, then slid down to caress the firm back of her thigh. With one fluid move he tugged her leg high about his hip, a move that clearly tormented them both .
