Full consideration. If Brenda Hartwell knew how wildly attractive she was when she said those words, Selby had no doubt that she would have been happily married five Seasons ago. As it was, she was in his arms—and there was no better outcome, none at all, in his opinion. In his arms, in a very unexpected bed, and in a mood to welcome destiny.

He knew there was a set pattern that he was meant to follow. Compliments, gentle stroking of the face—kisses, eventually. But Selby found himself so shocked by the fall from the attic, and so exquisitely alive at the prospect of being close to Brenda, that he forgot in what order he was meant to act.

He kissed Brenda Hartwell. Kissed her deeply, lengthily, honestly; a kiss that sent a shuddering wrench of desire through his core. Reaching up to cup her face, marvelling at its softness, he coaxed her tongue to stroke against his own as he took in the pleasures of her mouth, her sighs against his lips, her ripe curves pressed lushly against his body. Only when he pulled away, panting, did Selby remember that he wasn’t meant to begin quite so forcefully.

Oh, hell. Brenda’s fingers were curled tightly around his neck, pulling his mouth back to hers; she didn’t seem to mind, not at all. Selby, tracing the edge of Brenda’s full lips with with tongue, let his blazing need for her rule his actions.

He couldn’t spend forever at her mouth. Not when the rest of her body called to him so strongly. With a final, lingering kiss of her lips, his tongue stroking the roof of her mouth as a savage ache hardened his cock, Selby moved to the long white line of Brenda’s neck.

‘Ah!’ Brenda’s gasping cry inflamed him as he kissed her neck, running his tongue over her skin, grazing his teeth against her delicate flesh. ‘I… oh.’

‘Destiny behoves me to compliment you.’ Selby kissed her neck again, smiling as Brenda’s eyelids fluttered with pleasure. ‘Lavishly, and in a detailed manner.’

‘Oh yes?’ The slight touch of sarcasm in Brenda’s voice only inflamed him further. ‘Some learned expressions of delight concerning my hair, my eyes, the turn of my ankles…’

As a matter of fact, Selby had been going to compliment her appearance. There was more than enough to compliment; he had composed silent rhapsodies concerning her hair, her lips, the soft swell of her breasts. Looking down at her, though, he found himself saying words that came from a much deeper and more honest place.

‘You are so witty. So clever, and so kind. Kindness upon kindness, and honest words, and courage that is as rare as it is lovely.’

‘My goodness.’ Brenda’s eyes widened. ‘Are… are those the compliments one normally pays, when briefly surrendering to destiny?’

Selby swallowed. The convenient lie failed him. ‘… No.’

Brenda did not answer. But her next kiss, full of a searching passion that brought a moan to Selby’s lips, gave him all the answer that he needed.

If he had felt even the slightest amount of reticence before, of shyness, it was gone now.
