He couldn’t have answered her question even if he had wanted to. Noah stood there, staring at Lady Tabitha as if she were a fountain and he a man dying of thirst. He wanted to drink from her. He wanted to taste her sweetness and bask in her radiance.

He wanted to kiss her. Needed to.

There seemed no way to stop himself, not when she looked up at him with eyes harboring the power of a storm cloud deep within their depths and luscious lips quivering beneath his gaze. Not when she smelled like warm peaches and woman, with just a hint of spice. Not when the heat of her body pulled him closer, threatening to overwhelm him and destroy any ability to think he once owned.

She took in a sharp breath of air. Her overfilled lungs pushed her bosom up until it almost met his chest as he lowered his head. And then his lips were on hers, and hers yielded to him, and he was lost.

Her lips were soft and full and moist. Noah started out trying to be tender with her, but she kissed him back and he couldn’t contain his fervor. He fisted one hand in the curls at the nape of her neck and placed the other at her waist, pulling her closer until nothing remained between them aside from their clothing. Her breasts, full and firm, pressed into his ribs, and it took everything he had within him not to tear back the bodice of her gown and bury his face in the lush valley between them.

She whimpered softly and took hold of his lapels with both hands, pulling herself higher, closer, rising up to the tips of her toes to meet him. That was all the invitation he needed. Noah tilted her head to the side and parted her lips with his tongue, and he delved into the enthralling moist heat she offered.

Lady Tabitha did not kiss like a maiden; there no hesitancy, no bungling indecision or tenuous pecking. She joined his tongue with her own, stroking with an enthusiasm that sent a shock straight between his legs. His erection was pressing into her stomach—surely she felt him pulsating against her.

Noah’s hands moved as if of their own accord, sliding down her sleek arms and up the silky fabric covering her sides. His thumbs rested just below her breasts for a moment before he slipped them higher until he could cup her breasts in his palms. The tips hardened beneath his touch; she moaned into his mouth when he squeezed gently. He left her mouth to trail kisses along the hollow of her cheeks, down the incline of her neck, along the length of her collarbone.

Her breaths came in shallow, ragged surges as he skimmed his tongue to the hollow between her breasts. “Oh. Oh, my,” she said on a sigh. Noah kneaded the flesh in his hands through the slippery silk fabric. Then suddenly she jolted to attention, pulling away from him and leaving him bereft.
