Chapter 19

The evening had been a magical one—the most wonderful night that Julia could remember.

Malcolm hadn’t just kidnapped her body, he’d captivated the rest of her, as well.

Her desire—no, her need—to see past the wall of reserve that he’d erected around himself to the man within had become an obsession.

And you think you will learn more about him by spying?

Julia grimaced guiltily at the thought.

But that guilt didn’t stop her from pressing the secret panel and slipping into the gloomy corridor like a sneak thief an hour and a half after Malcolm had delivered her back to her chambers.

Julia knew—even before she reached the small window into his study—that something was different tonight.

For one thing, the long rectangle of glass across from Malcolm’s study was illuminated, allowing her to see into the room for the first time.

And oh, what a room it was. A huge black four-poster bed dominated the large space, with a woman standing slightly off to one side, her arms cuffed at the wrists and stretched high over her head.

That was unusual enough, but there were so many other things clambering for Julia’s attention.

The wall of whips was self-explanatory—although never had she imagined there were so many different sorts in existence—but the furniture was unlike anything she’d ever seen: a huge black X made from wood and several benches and racks, one that even resembled a stockade.

Julia’s wide-eyed gaze slid back to the woman.

She faced straight ahead and wore a loo mask with blood-red pouting lips, an aquiline nose with holes for breathing, and impossibly long curling black lashes projecting from closed eyelids, which meant the wearer wouldn’t be able to see.

Her long blond hair fell in waves around her face, making the mask look eerily real.

The mask didn’t just conceal her face, it erased her identity. When you combined that effect with her naked body the result was distinctly dehumanizing, making her resemble a life-sized doll.

It should have repulsed Julia, but was almost suffocatingly arousing, instead.

It was either the woman from the other night, or one very similar in build and coloring. Once again, Julia couldn’t help noticing the resemblance between their bodies.

Other than the shocking lack of private hair and slightly smaller breasts, they were almost identical, which made it very easy to imagine that was her on the other side of the glass. A human doll for Malcolm’s pleasure.

It was as if thinking his name had summoned him and he strode into sight and stopped behind the woman. He towered over her, his huge body clad in evening blacks, the juxtaposition of naked and clothed, delicate and massive, causing Julia’s sex to ache unbearably.

Malcolm set his gloved hands on the woman’s shoulder and she flinched

“Shhh,” he soothed.

Julia startled and stepped back at the sound of his voice, which was so clear there must be some outlet, which meant she needed to be utterly silent.

He pulled back her hair and lowered his faintly smiling lips to her bare throat, trailing kisses down the skin of
