Oh dear god, what just happened? Abbie’s fingers clutched at a handful of feathers from the burst cushion. Jack’s warm body lay on top of hers. He was still inside her, still breathing heavily. He dropped a light kiss on her shoulder.

‘You OK, Abbie?’

‘Yes … I …’ She had actually done it. Made love with Jack.

She felt a sense of loss as he withdrew from her and stood up. ‘Let’s get you into bed,’ he said.

‘No.’ Ouch, she hadn’t meant to sound whiny. He would think that she was one of those needy women who would beg him to stay for the night.

Jack picked her up and set her on her feet. He pulled her against his chest, using one hand to tilt her head back. ‘Did I hurt you?’

‘No, you didn’t hurt me.’

‘Would you like me to?’ A wicked grin dispelled his serious expression. Abbie remembered the cave in the jungle, the slap of his hand against her tender flesh. The sudden heat of impact.

‘Do you know that your pupils have just dilated?’ Jack gave a low laugh. ‘I’ll take that as a yes.’

He bent and hooked his arm under her knees, lifting her against a wall of solid muscle. ‘Bedroom?’

‘Through there.’ She pointed.

He deposited her on the bed, and before she could ask, he closed the curtains and turned on the bedside lamp. His hot stare made her tremble and Abbie moved her hand to cover herself.

‘Don’t.’ The word was a command rather than a request. She felt like a rabbit in the headlights as his eyes raked her from head to foot.

She had no idea where her torn panties were, two buttons were missing from her silk blouse and her smart skirt was a mass of creases. And somehow she was still wearing her new heels, the ones Miffy had made her buy.

‘I like these,’ Jack said, his voice gravelly. ‘There’s something about a woman in heels. I think we’ll leave these on.’

His fingers moved slowly along her instep, until they encountered a snag where he had ripped her pantyhose. ‘These, however, have to go.’

Her skirt and blouse followed the shredded pantyhose on to the floor.

‘Now, this is pretty.’ Jack paused when he reached her lacy brassiere, brushing his index finger across her lace-covered nipples. Just that light touch sent a shot of pleasure through her. She moaned and arched up into his touch.

‘Does it make you feel sexy to wear something like this, Abbie?’

‘I –’ Oh god, her brain had turned to mush and if he didn’t stop touching her she was going to melt.

‘Answer me.’ His tone took on a sharp edge that sent a shiver down her spine.

‘Yes, it does.’

‘Good girl.’ His lips slowly circled one nipple and then he sucked hard on it.

The sensation was delicious – hovering on the edge between ecstasy and pain. Jack released her, unclipped the bra and tossed it with her other clothes.

‘You’re beautiful.’

She didn’t feel the least bit beautiful. She was naked, vulnerable, wearing nothing but a pair of dark-red Miu Miu shoes.
