Chapter 10

To Know Him

Tired eyes flickered against the light that streamed through the window to settle on the back of a very naked Roarke. A soft exhale of breath and I tried to stay as still as I could, pretending to be asleep so I could take in what was mine. Muscles rippled over his back as he sorted through the clothes in the wardrobe, arms flexing deliciously. Looking lower, I bit my lip at the taut rear and strong thighs. I had to lift my head to look lower still. I pressed my thighs together beneath the sheets, but that drew Roarke’s attention to me.

“Good morning,” he greeted, turning around to face me.

I quickly averted my gaze before I looked somewhere I shouldn’t.

“Morning,” I croaked in reply, my mouth dry from sleep.

Sitting up slowly, I stretched my arms above me, joints popping and muscles stretching in relief. I kicked the covers away, cool air brushing over hot skin. My feet dangled above the floor, making me huff in annoyance at the reminder of my small stature.

All I could smell in the air was Roarke’s scent. I inhaled almost greedily without realisation. It was strangely comforting to be surrounded by the scent of my mate, the safe feeling it provided almost making me forget all worries.

My eyes were forced back to the object of my thoughts, who was now half dressed in dark jeans that seemed to struggle to hold so much muscle. Once again, I spotted what looked to be dried paint on his fingers, black and green sticking out against his tanned skin. It hadn’t been there last night. Had he been up long before me? Before I could ask, he coughed for my attention, and my eyes flicked back up to his. A smirk was twitching at his lips, and I dearly hoped he didn’t think I had been staring anywhere inappropriate.

“You need to get dressed. There will be plenty of time for you to study every inch of me another day,” Roarke teased, tossing something green at me.

I was blushing, my cheeks burning at having been caught staring so blatantly. I wanted to defend where my eyes had wandered, but my tongue was too thick and dry with embarrassment. Picking up the green fabric, spreading it out on the bed, I realised it was my shirt-dress.

An eyebrow raised as I looked at my mate. “You’re picking my clothes out now? Should I let you pick what I eat, where I go, and who I see too?”

He shook his head and sighed. “Don’t be like that. I just wanted to see you in it. You’ll suit green.”

Something I already knew. Green brought out the colour of my hair and eyes and was one of my favourite colours. Roarke’s eyes were green…just a coincidence, I told myself. I left the dress on the bed and went to pick out underwear, for some reason hiding panties and a bra under my shirt because I didn’t want him to see them.
