Chapter Four

Friedrich was creeping along a hallway again. This time in an Italian hotel. At least, he had a key that Marta had slipped to him after they’d checked in. So far, his luck had held, and no one had spotted him. He arrived at the right number, let himself in, and found himself in a small sitting room. Through the open door to the bedroom, the sounds of the shower running came through clear. He smiled. If he stripped quickly enough, he could surprise her, climb in with her, and kiss her senseless while the water coursed over them.

By the time he arrived at the threshold to the bedroom, he’d rid himself of his footwear, his jacket, and his tie, and had progressed to unbuttoning his shirt. Clothes had flown everywhere. He was on a mission, after all, and neatness could come later. Just as he neared the door to the bathroom, the water turned off. Drat—the end of that idea. But he could still catch her while she was still slick and hot from her shower.

He found her bent over, wrapping a towel around her hair. Stark naked and absolutely beautiful—all sleek lines and curves where women should have them.

When she straightened and saw him, a look of horror crossed her face, and she grabbed a second towel and wrapped it around her. “What are you doing here?”

“You invited me, remember?”

“Yes, but not now…not right this minute.” The towel fell from her hair, and the strands clung to her face. “I’m not dressed.”

“You don’t need to be dressed for what I planned.”

“But I don’t have any makeup on, and my hair is wet,” she said.

“Did you use that same shampoo?” he asked.

“I did.”

“Then I want to smell your hair,” he said. “Right now.”

“You foolish man, I look a fright.”

“Nonsense.” He went to her and placed his hands over hers where they clutched the towel to her chest. After gentle prodding, she allowed him to ease her hold, and the cloth fell to the floor.

Now he could take her fully into his arms and capture her mouth in a kiss. The scent of roses invaded his brain, sending his mind to sunlit meadows where he was always young and in love.

“I’m getting you wet,” she whispered against his lips.

“I’ll dry.”

“I wanted to look my best for you.”

“How could you possibly look any better than you do right now?” he said. He found a droplet of water in the space above her collarbone and kissed it away. That tasted so good he followed with nips and caresses along her shoulder.

Sighing, she gave up any protest that the moment wasn’t perfect in any way, and ran her arms around his neck to bring her body against his. Her nipples hardened, poking at his chest through the fabric of his shirt. Lower, her belly cushioned his growing erection. She could make him as randy as a schoolboy, as eager to couple as a newlywed. One touch, one kiss made the years melt away to be replaced with joy he’d never thought to experience again.
