Dinner was a happy affair. Lady Chanyn and Jian included both Merlyn and Jaspir in their conversation. All talk steered clear of the unspoken topic in the room that was Jaspir and Merlyn's past. Jaspir had a lovely talk with Chanyn about her garden and her eclectic mix of plants. After the last dish was cleared, Lady Chanyn yawned. With that small sigh, all of the male servants and her husband were at her side.

Lady Chanyn rolled her eyes again but allowed herself to be led away to bed. Jian embraced Jaspir and made him promise to visit again soon. And then he and Merlyn were alone.

Jaspir reached his hand out to Merlyn. "I'll walk you out to your conveyance."

When she placed her hand in his, he realized his mistake. He'd promised Liam that he wouldn't touch her again. He'd promised himself she would never become like Lady Myra and his other former clients. The feel of her hand in his set off alarm bells that tripped along the veins to his heart and his heart began to pound. His nostrils filled with her scent. He couldn't take his eyes, or his hand, off her.

They walked slowly down the hall and out of the front doors. Once on the stoop they paused. Jaspir did not let go of her hand. Merlyn did not take hers back.

"Liam kissed me."

Jaspir played the words over in his head twice. The first time a spark of anger struck. The second time a light of curiosity hit him. "Did you enjoy it?"

Merlyn blinked. Clearly, that wasn't the response she had expected either. "I... I did."

Jaspir rubbed his thumb over her pulse. The vein jumped at his touch. "Tell me about it."

"You want me to tell you about kissing another man?"

"Yes." Jaspir traced his fingers to the crux of her elbow. "How did it start?"

Merlyn blinked, but she began to speak. "He began by rubbing his thumb over my lip. He said I had something on my face."

"Clever of him. And then he leaned in and kissed you?"

"No, he put one hand at my waist. The other he wrapped around my neck."

"Good." The male was heeding Jaspir's instructions. "Go on."

"I... Then he tilted my head up. I was going to push him away."

"But you didn't."

Merlyn shook her head. Jaspir stepped closer to her, one hand on her waist, the other at the nape of her neck. Her hands rested against his chest. She didn't push him away.

"Did he kiss you lightly?"

"Yes," she nodded. "Light kisses. Just like with you."

A sliver of pride shot up Jaspir's spine that his lessons had pleased her. Jaspir was so close to her. He felt her breath on his lips. He tasted the scent of her on his tongue. Her words aroused a powerful erection.

"And then he began to thrust his tongue in my mouth."

"Tell me what that felt like, Merlyn?"

Her eyes fluttered shut, her head tilted back. "It was warm, and soft, and wet. A throbbing began between my legs.
