Chapter Ten

Luc slammed the door shut to Isabelle’s private rooms.

A half smile tilted his mouth.

She knew what was coming, and there wasn’t a fiber in her being that could muster the will to stop it. The aching need had been building at the salon and as they made their way to her rooms.

Only this time, it included a longing in her heart, so similar to the way she’d felt all those years ago.

When she couldn’t allow him to matter that way to her again.

Realistically, any permanent romantic relationship between them was laughable, whether she divulged her secrets or not. She wasn’t her sister. She’d chosen a different path. Let’s face it. You are hardly marriage material for a man in the aristocracy. Not even the most celebrated courtesan of all, Nicole, had managed to do for herself what she was able to accomplish for her children—marry into nobility. And just when Isabelle was beginning to think she had an understanding of this aristo, he unbalanced her yet again. It took a certain depth and sensitivity to appreciate the heartbreaking words of the late Italian poetess Isabella di Morra.

It took someone who’d known pain.

It wrenched her heart to think of what he might have suffered at the hands of his father. She wanted the pain erased. His and hers.

Even if it was for but a brief interlude.

The fire this man ignited made the entire world melt away.

He hoisted her up off her feet, bracketing her legs around his hips, and shoved her up against the wall. “Beautiful Juliette, you need to be fucked…by me. You need my cock,” he murmured against her neck before pressing his lips to it.

There were so many reasons she should simply hand him a copy of her first The Princesses’ Adventures volume as she’d promised and stop this amorous encounter. Pain-soaked discussions needed to be had. But as his mouth trailed across her skin, sending ripples of pleasure shimmering down her neck and through her system, she shoved away all reason. For now.

Instead, her response to his blunt comments was to arch into the hard bulge in his breeches pressing so deliciously against her sex. He rolled his hips, plying her clit with the most perfect stroke. Her gasp mingled with his groan.

She fisted the shoulders of his doublet.

Any final thoughts of resisting dissolved into the ether.

She’d read once that strength came from knowing one’s weakness. And hers was Luc de Moutier. He always had been. He didn’t know how many times thoughts of him had bolstered her—during those dark days with Roch, isolated and afraid, with a young child.

Her Fair Prince…

She wanted—needed—him. With shocking desperation.

She kissed a path up his neck and drew on his warm skin. His low groan was a heady rush.

“Not here. On your bed,” she heard him say as he pulled her away from the wall and walked toward her bedchamber, her body wrapped around him. Pressed snugly against his solid shaft, each stride he took caused a scintillating friction against her already soaked sex.
