Fifteen minutes later, Cougar let himself into the kitchen. The entire house was quiet. Only one lamp flickered on the table, causing Cougar to smile at the small consideration. The woman was too nice for her own good.

He hung his coat up on the peg before dousing the light. He’d built this house. Navigating through the dark proved no problem. When he reached the correct door, he turned the handle only to discover it locked. He heard a startled gasp, and knew Mara was within. He shook his head at her efforts and pulled the key out of his pocket.

Mara sat straight up in the bed at the sound of a key turning in the lock. Moonlight streaming in through the window gave plenty of light to see the doorknob turning. So much for locking the door. She pulled the quilt up under her chin as the door swung inward and went for a bluff.

“What are you doing in here?” she demanded.

Cougar leaned against the doorjamb in that nonchalant pose Mara was fast becoming familiar with. “I was looking for my wife.”

He had no right to look so damned masculine leaning in the doorway, moonlight slanting off his high cheekbones and jet black hair as it fell over one shoulder, teasing her with what would never truly be hers.

“Why?” she asked.

Cougar slid the first button of his shirt from its hole. His right brow cocked in gentle mockery. “Because it’s time to go to bed.”

Two more buttons slid free before Mara found her voice and then it wasn’t much. Just a squeaky breath of sound that betrayed her nervousness. “I think I misled you down by the barn,” she began, the words picking up momentum as Cougar’s shirt dropped in his wake, and he moved to her side.

The fly of his hip loving denims was about a foot from her face if she cared to turn her eyes to the left. She kept them firmly straight ahead. “I really don’t think we know each other well enough to… I mean, I don’t think the time is right…”

His pants hit the floor. “Oh my God!” was an instinctive betrayal of her shock. How could she have forgotten?

Even in her peripheral vision, his cock was huge. The thick shaft hung between his legs, stretching down his thigh, too large and heavy to remain upright without support. Certainly too large to fit in her body.

“You flatter me.” The modesty in his words was as false as his laughter was genuine.

Mara gave up all hope of subduing her panic when Cougar sat down beside her on the bed and pulled her into his side. With her head anchored in the hollow of his shoulder, she could hear the thundering echo of her heart, and tasted the metallic taint of fear in her mouth. He was her husband, she told herself. It was his right to take her. It wasn’t her right to protest, but she found herself doing it anyway.

“I know you can do this,” she whispered before clearing her throat and trying again.
