When we entered her hotel suite there were many signs that Lena was nervous, but I missed every one of them. Maybe I was just too young, for all my bravado earlier about my experience; too young to know what was on her face.

Or maybe it was because being with her made me overly claimed by what I felt. A liveliness, a vivid awareness, that we would be something unlike anything I’d ever known with a girl.

Or maybe it was just the beauty of her. I doubted any man could see anything but her when Lena was in a room. She was so commanding and yet fragile and striking, like a Fabergé egg.

I stood awkwardly in the center of the suite’s small sitting room and watched as she set down her bag and gloves, and then removed the pink cardigan, leaving her shoulders bare. Underneath was just a pink sleeveless top, cut high on the collarbone. The look suited her and did full justice to her shapely upper body.

For the first time I noticed her short strand of pearls hovering just at the base of her long graceful neck, and my gaze fixed on their whiteness against her pale olive skin. She kicked off one shoe and then another, and it was then I realized she wasn’t wearing hose. There was just the right hint of color, naturally, to her creamy flesh that made her skin look exactly how women wanted it without bothering to cover them.

Damn, I wished I’d touched her leg in the car…

“Pour us a drink, Jack,” she said, running her hands through her curls and leaving them delightfully mussed. “There’s a full bar over by the terrace door. I’ll be right back. I just want to change out of these clothes. I’ve been in them since sunrise.”

“Sure. Any preference to what I fix?”

A little laugh as she reached for a cigarette to take into the bedroom with her. “Scotch, like you this round. Straight up. It’s been an exhausting day.”

Those dark eyes fixed on me and I felt like I was covered in blisters. Christ, she was still fully clothed. A handful of hours earlier I’d watched Bonnie’s strip show in the cave, but oh, it couldn’t compare to what Lena was doing to me. She set down her lighter and smiled at me through a little cloud of smoke. “The drinks, Jack.”

I flushed and went quickly to the bar. That easily she knocked me off my game and was in full control over where this was going. As I poured the booze, out of the corner of my eye I watched her disappear into the bedroom. She hadn’t completely shut the door behind her and I had to fight not to try to catch a peek at her.

Pathetic, Jack. Pathetic.

She wouldn’t be the first girl I’d seen nude—that is, if she let me.

She wouldn’t be the first girl I’d been sexual with—that is, if she let me.

She wouldn’t be a first in any way—except that every thought in my head was rapidly followed with if she let me.
