Closed eyes and shuddered, admitting that he needed both.

Are you cold?

Rebecca opened his eyes. Believed to be alone, but before it had a gentleman. Despite the poor lighting, he noted that he was handsome and elegant. He gathered the necessary elements of a refined gentleman, but had something in his eyes that intrigued her. They were shrewd and seekers, despite the brightness of fun.

Are you cold? He repeated, advancing a step. She did not answer and he made mention of taking off his jacket.

No, please. I'm fine. The cold wind is pleasant after the heat which is inside the hall.

The unknown straightened his jacket.

The night air is refreshing. I'm sure a lady so lovely is dancing since she came to the ball.

Rebecca squinted, suspicious that he was teasing, but he seemed sincere.

Actually, I have not been drawn to dance.

I would swear that their suitors were lining up to fill your card; Typically, Rebecca replied with a coquettish gesture, but the mention of the card dance ruined her night.

My dance card does not concern you, sir. And this conversation is inconvenient, since we have not been presented.

Something tells me you're not the kind of woman who always follows the rules of good manners.

The comment angered her even more.

What makes you think so?

His audacity to come here alone. Daring and provocation. The evaluated in his eyes suggestively. Rebecca gasped. He was no longer a gentleman's elegant and beautiful, but a predator. Tried to contain the tremor, but his reaction had nothing to do with the cold.

Despite the innocent expression, his eyes showed otherwise. Shone like flames, causing a profound and disturbing effect on the body it. Rebecca tried to ignore it. He tilted his head slightly.

If you'll excuse me ...

No He laced waist. Not until you tell me your name.

I will not say. She stared at him defiantly.

The increased pressure of his fingers. She looked around. He saw no one. The stranger continued to stare at her with intensity. He smiled.

Relax. I do not bite.

I'm not foolish to believe you.

Very smart. He looked amused. If you were really scared, I could have cried.

I can.

He shook his head.

If I wanted to scream for help, I would have cried to five minutes. Involuntarily she looked at his hands. The fingers were long and elegant.

You seem too knowledgeable on this subject for my taste, sir. Women often cry at your company?

Only in moments of ecstasy.

Rebecca felt her face burning. The vulgarity of the comment left her stunned. She tried to shed, but he bent down and his breathing stroked his face.

This conversation is totally inappropriate she protested.

Maybe. But you liked it. And liked it. Guarantee.

I like you? It's very funny. I know nothing about him. Not even his name.

So, allow me to present, beautiful maiden. While holding the the waist, the stranger made a strange bow. I am Richard Dorchester, fresh from Wiltshire. My friends call me a gentleman Dorchester and have a feeling you will soon be among them.
