CHAPTER TEN

Temperance was far more nervous than she thought she would be. From the moment she proceeded Hugh into his bedroom her heart had been beating at an irregular tempo and her pulse was racing so fast she feared it would never again resume a steady rhythm. Just as she managed to somewhat compose herself, she had turned around…and the hungry gleam in Hugh’s eyes had sent her heart galloping all over again.

She held her breathe while he painstakingly unbuttoned her gown. Released it on a tiny whoosh of air when she pivoted to face him. He was staring at her as though she were a delectable morsel to be devoured, and despite the butterflies dancing in her stomach she felt a surge of arousal all the way from the tips of her toes to the tips of her earlobes.

Earlobes he had suckled while she’d bucked against his hand…

“What comes next?” she asked, hating that she was so apprehensive but unable to quell her anxiety completely. Before when she had kissed Hugh and he’d kissed her in return it had all seemed like a game. A fun, frivolous game where no one could get hurt and they both came away with a prize. But as she stared up into his dark gaze she suddenly felt as though she’d stepped into deep, tumultuous waters…and forgotten how to swim.

“This,” he said in a husky voice that pulled at the hot, damp, secretive spot between her thighs. And then his arms where on her arms, and her chest was pressed against his chest, and he was kissing with her a wild abandon that carried away all of her worries and doubts in one fell swoop.

Yes, she cried silently as his tongue plunged between her lips and his fingers tangled in her hair. This is what I came here for. This is what I wanted. This feeling. This rush. This freedom.

Before she had time to comprehend what was happening her corset was off and her drawers quickly followed. It was the first time she had ever stood naked in front of a man, but she did not feel embarrassed. How could she, when Hugh was gazing at her with slack-jawed reverence?

“Beautiful.” His eyes traveled slowly up and down her candlelight kissed body, as though she were a stunning painting that had suddenly come to life. “So beautiful.”

“What about you?” Temperance bit the inside of her cheek as she glanced pointedly down at Hugh’s gray trousers. There was a large bulge between his thighs. The same large bulge she had felt pressed against her navel the last time they had been in this room.

He stepped back and made quick work of unbuttoning his trousers. When he stepped out of them one leg at a time, Temperance’s cheeks filled with color all over again when she realized he was wearing nothing beneath. Of its own accord her gaze was drawn to the hard, pulsing heat of his erection. It stood proudly up against his body, the tip rounded and already glistening.
