Chapter Eighteen

A shiver jerked her awake. Clutching the blanket tighter, Rowena curled her fists into a ball under her chin. Her joints ached as if shards of glass had crawled out the ground to host an all-nighter in her body.

Another bone-wrenching shiver, and she clenched her chattering teeth.

Cold…so cold…

Past the lacy shadows of her lashes, the fire had died to a pile of gray ash. Tendrils of fog snaked through the nearby trees, carpeting the small clearing in a blanket of white. High on a nearby branch rested the shadow of a large falcon, his head tucked beneath the feathers of one wing.

She flipped to her other side and the heat of a sunbaked sand dune met her cheeks, emanating from a tower of thick muscle wrapped in honey-gold skin. Yes-s-s…

Caedmon lay on his back, deep breaths pulling through his chest, tousled hair spread around his head and brushing his broad shoulders.

Biting her lip, she eased close and gently tugged his shirt from his breeches. She snuck her hand inside and he flinched as she flattened her icy palm on his stomach.

Warm. Deliciously warm, and exactly what she needed.

She slid her hand around his side and a muted chuckle tickled her throat. It was an evil way to wake him, but she wasn’t sorry in the least. After the tender way he’d taken care of her, she was pretty sure a little body heat wasn’t the only thing he was looking to provide.

“Sweet tits, you’re chilled to the bone.” Slurring his words, he wrapped her in his arms and hauled her right up against his body.

A moment later his breathing slowed, the hand at her hip went slack. She glanced around the hushed forest and raised a devious brow. A girl had to wonder. Would the rest of him be as…big? As hard and sporting all those same yummy veins?

Only one way to find out.

The downy hair near his waistband gave way to a smooth expanse of sultry skin. She glided her palm higher, exploring the landscape of grooved muscle in his chest and abs. Over one thickly toned pec, and she cupped the curve of his shoulder, trailed her fingertips along his collarbone to the shallow dip in the base of his throat.

His pulse vibrated through the thin skin and the hair on her nape lifted in anticipation. A slow journey with her fingertips along his other collar bone, and she dragged her nails down to his left nipple.

Beneath the light circle of her index finger, the ring tightened and peaked. A graze of her nails to his other side and his right nipple received the same attention.

It pebbled against her finger and a husky groan rumbled in his chest. His hand tightened, the digits flexed and squeezed her hip. She squirmed and clenched her ass as he jammed his hand inside the small gap of leather at her lower back.

The calluses on his palm were rough and heated. His pinky traced the crease of her bottom, fingers gripping and seeking within the tight confines of her fitted pants.
