Chapter Eleven

“Hey! Put me down.”

Her feet hit the floor, one strong hand steadied her. And then, nothing. Bereft. Alone.

“I’m sorry,” Adam said, ducking his head. “I should have asked. I was acting like a primitive caveman. I’ll never do it…”

“Pick me back up!”

After all, she’d never again have a big, strong, handsome man pick her up as if she were a delicate, fragile flower. Never again would a man take the lead and know how to pleasure her and in pleasuring her take his pleasure.

Oh, it was not the sort of thing she was proud to confess to enjoying, but she was so hopelessly beyond doing or talking or acting in a manner she was proud of that she didn’t care.

And besides, there was only this once. Just this once.

He picked her up and she threw back her head, laughing as he opened the first door at the top of the stairs, the linen closet, and slammed it shut with his foot. The next door on his left was the bathroom, the door to his right the sewing room which had once been Marion’s bedroom.

He growled.

“There,” she said, pointing to the very end of the hall. She was surprised that she even possessed the capacity to speak.

Her bedroom was an airy sunporch on the southern side of the house. The oak tree outside scattered cool dappled moonlight through the oatmeal-shaded sheers. Her maple sleigh bed was warm from her body—she had just gotten into bed with a cozy mystery, which now lay on the floor. Her nightstand light was on. A glass of milk was on a saucer with a half-eaten cookie.

And then, as he laid her so gently on the bed, pulling the covers down to the footboard, she clapped her hand to her mouth.

“I’m sorry, Adam,” she moaned. “I, uh, just thought of something.”

“I know what you thought of,” he said, tugging off his shirt. He stood at the end of the bed, his chest smooth, firm and tanned like caramel. “I’ve taken care of it.”

He pulled a small plastic package from his back pocket.

“How did you know?”

“I just put it in my pocket in case,” he said. “I wasn’t expecting anything.”

“Do you carry that with you everywhere?”

“Only to your house.”

“You understand it’s just once.”

“I understand. In fact, it’s a good idea. See, I can’t concentrate on my work any more, but if we make love, maybe it’ll get it out of my system.”

“And if I make love once, I get what I want. But I don’t have to deceive anybody.”

“So it’s best for both of us,” Adam said. “Once. Just once.”

“Shake on it.” She solemnly held out her hand.

“Sure, baby.”

They shook.

“Now let’s get over each other,” Adam said.

She stared, drinking in his flesh as if she were parched. He had never been so closely observed, and yet, it did not make him self-conscious. Though he was ordinarily a modest man not given to vanity, he enjoyed her appraisal. He lingered at the scrolled footboard.
