Chapter Seven
Why did Bastian have to be that Sebastian, the Earl of Shaftesbury, and the very man responsible for her having to sell her body in this way in the first place?
She had been totally confused when she woke this morning, alone in bed and still in the room where she had dined with Bastian the evening before. The fire had gone out in the interim, but she was snug and warm beneath the bedcovers, which had been pulled over her.
Her cheeks had become hot with embarrassment when she recalled the events of the previous evening. Removing her clothes. Demonstrating for Bastian how the doctor had examined her. The way in which Bastian had taken control of those caresses until she attained a climax far more powerful than the one she had experience in Dr. Winter’s presence.
But she remembered nothing that had happened after that release.
Had she fallen asleep and Bastian had simply left her there? Or had he remained for a while, hopeful she might awaken so that he could take his own pleasure?
Whatever the answer to that question, the lack of discomfort or blood between her legs indicated she was still in possession of her virginity. Which told Abigail he had not taken advantage of her in her sleep.
She had felt an emotional softening toward him then for his consideration. A curiosity to see him again and perhaps discover why he had decided not to take her innocence last night after all.
Overhearing his conversation with the Duke of Blackborne and Dr. Winter had told her exactly the reason Bastian had not been in any hurry to take her innocence the previous night. It was because, despite her having already refused him, Bastian still had every intention of continuing with his plan to make her his mistress.
His arrogance in believing he had the right to make that decision for her had infuriated her immensely.
To the point Abigail now no longer cared whether she saw Bastian Forbes ever again.
