CHAPTER FOURTEEN
In the white light of morning, Allegra woke her sleeping Prince with a kiss.
She had been up for some time, had washed, dressed, eaten, and prepared her notes from the final boxes of her father’s files, which she had gone through last night while Lazar had finished his watch. Nearby she had breakfast for him from the galley to fortify him for what she had to say.
He was going to need it.
He shifted awake under the gentle brushing of her lips over his. She slid back before he beguiled her into more serious play, but he captured her wrist, still blinking against the morning light. He looked delicious, his short hair tousled, the sun-chiseled lines of his face softened by rest. All around him the sheets were still warm with his big body’s heat.
Shooting her a sleepy smile, he sat up and reached for the glass of orange juice on the tray. Without pausing, he drank it all. She gazed at the lift and fall of his Adam’s apple, thinking with an inward sigh that she had never known before how beautiful a man could look drinking a glass of juice. Lazar made a hearty sound of appreciation and set the glass back on the tray.
“Good morning, kitten,” he growled playfully, pulling her down, sprawling, atop his bare chest when he flopped back onto the mattress. He kissed her in earnest.
She stopped him.
“What’s wrong?” he asked.
“Your coffee will get cold.”
“Not if it’s anywhere near us two.”
“What a rogue you are,” she said in a scold that somehow came out tenderly.
“Somebody fell asleep on me last night.” He kissed her on the tip of her nose.
She braced both hands on either side of him in an effort to push up from his warm, hard body and his bed before she was utterly beguiled. “Yes, I wanted to talk about that—”
“No talking.” He held her down, both arms around her waist. “Kiss me.”
She suddenly noticed the place against her body where he was very much a man, and very much awake.
“Lazar,” she exclaimed, “we must discuss Ascencion!”
“Must we?”
It was difficult to think when he nibbled her earlobe like that. She used every ounce of her strength to pull back once more. She stared into his eyes. “Listen to me. There is so much to be done—”
“Mm-hmm,” he purred, ignoring her every word as he led her hand to caress him down there.
She shivered at the feel of his titanic manhood but refused to cooperate, pointing a finger in his face. “Stop it! Now, behave yourself. Let me go, and get out of this bed. I’ve looked through the files, and we haven’t a moment to lose.”
“Agreed. I’m going out of my mind to have you.”
“It is quite impossible!” She slipped free of him and fled across the cabin to a safe distance, panting in mixed lust and worry as she stared at him.
He sat up in bed and stared at her. Then his black brows knit in a thunderous line.
“Why,” he
