Bianca nearly vaulted off the seat.

Of all the insufferable, arrogant balderdash.

Beg for the handsome lout’s kisses, indeed.

We shall see.

Summoning her most dazzling smile, she stood, and partially stooped over Pierce—all casual masculinity splayed against his seat. She drew her fingertip from the red hand mark on his face to the corner of his mouth.

His pupils dilated and his breath quickened

Fascinating.

Was that what happened to a man when aroused?

Did it hold true for a woman too?

She dipped lower still, and his mouth parted the merest bit as he cupped her sides with both hands.

He flexed his fingers, digging the tips into her ribs.

So wicked of her. But the power proved heady and unlike anything she’d ever felt before.

Inch by inch she bent her neck lower, and lower still until only a finger’s distance remained between her mouth and his. Instinct made her run the tip of her tongue across her bottom lip.

His heavy lids drooped over those penetrating, mesmerizing eyes—thank God, for I was about to lose myself in those fathomless depths—and he released a shuddery breath.

“What do I get if you lose, Pierce?” she whispered, in the sultriest voice she could muster.

“I shan’t.”

At the seductive timbre of his voice, she swallowed hard. He ran his hands up and down her sides and only by biting the inside of her mouth did she keep from gasping at the intoxicating sensation.

“In fact, I’ll up the stakes, my sweet. You’ll plead for much more than my kisses, Bianca. You’ll beg me to take you. Even in here.” He slid his hands down to her hips, tracing enticing circles across her bum.

She bit the inside of her cheek to keep from gasping.

Playing unfair, was he?

Well, she could too.

“Tsk. Is that any way to speak to your new ward?” Resting one hand on his thigh, perilously close to the thick bulge straining against his pantaloons, she tapped his mouth with her finger.

He rocked his hips the merest bit, nudging her palm with his masculine hardness while pursing his lips against the fingertip of her other hand.

Such burning heat vibrated up Bianca’s arms, it was all she could do not to snatch her hand away. A startled puff of air did escape her this time.

She was dabbling in hazardous territory. One that he had far more expertise in than she. No doubt his vast experience led him to believe he knew how she would respond.

Fine then, she would be completely unpredictable.

Go port when he assumed she would go starboard.

Giving him what she hoped was a siren’s smile—after all, she had no practice at this seduction business—she said, “I’ll take Elmswood Parke if over the next month I do not willingly kiss you. And you must agree to let me live there. Oh, and no plying me with your seductive wiles either.”

“We shall see.” A lazy chuckle rumbled from his broad chest and he pulled her between his powerful legs. “And what do I get if you lose, my sweet?”

He nuzzled the hollow where her neck met her ear—oh, sweet mother of God—and her dratted knees turned to gruel.
