Chapter Ten

How on earth was she going to hold him still and quiet? Could she, and still warn him of the danger? Felicity hoped so. She lifted her mouth just an inch and put her finger over his lips. The tiny nod he gave showed he understood, and she moved her head slowly to rest her lips by his ear. She hoped he wasn't ticklish there.

"I think there is someone approaching." She spoke slowly and carefully as she whispered to him. "I thought I caught a glimpse in the distance. I reckoned we wouldn't have been seen because of the direction and height of the sun. Therefore I pushed, and we landed here. Luckily not in the gorse but behind it."

His breath tickled her other ear, and she was sensitive there. She squirmed and he nipped her ear. "Stop it. Was whoever it may be coming from near the cottage? Just nod if that's so."

Felicity nodded, and was amazed that even that un-erotic nip to her ear was enough to make her quim pulse.

The silence seemed menacing. There was none of the joy in the air she'd felt earlier. Her heart thudded loud in her mind, and she buried her head into Nash's neck, as if the more of him she touched, the safer she would be. His arms tightened around her, and with one swift movement, he rolled her under him. Felicity realized his jacket and breeches were better camouflage than the cream and green gown that Nash had purchased for her. She hadn't thought the clothes scenario through when she'd left Judith's house, and her one gown and jacket was not enough for her to have to wear. The few clothes she borrowed from Margaret were a help and once Nash discovered her, he decreed she needed extras to supplement what she had. Probably too many, but Felicity reveled in what he'd chosen. So much more to her liking than anything her father deemed suitable.

"Ssh now, don't move. I think I hear footsteps." His voice was so low even she had difficulty hearing him. There was no worry anyone else would.

Felicity tensed. His arms were still around her, but she felt cold, the deep bone chilling iciness of fear. Then she heard a soft rustle as branches on nearby trees and bushes were touched She lay unmoving, with Nash shielding her, until after what seemed like an hour, but was probably only minutes, he stirred and moved. The sensation of loneliness as his body lifted away unnerved her.

"Cushion your head on your arms, and try to relax. You need to wait here until I come back." He kissed her neck.

As ever, that sensual caress set shivers up her spine and from her breasts to her quim, where it began to gather her juices. Felicity wanted to protest, to beg him to stay with her, be safe, and love her until neither of them cared about men, danger or what might happen. She didn't. She bit her lip until the pain was so sharp she could have cried, and she stayed silent.
