Chapter 8

The sound of the wind, moaning like a soul in torment, woke Jo. Lying still, she listened to the shiver-inducing noise as gusts beat against the wide bedroom window in ineffectual fury. It was no longer dark beyond the pane, yet still not fully light, the time of morning when the lowest temperature reading is usually registered. In her mind, Jo pictured the ocean and breakers whipped to whitecapped frenzy by the gale. All that potentially destructive elemental force, she mused sleepily. So very near.

A smile of contentment curved her kiss-swollen lips. She was warm and safe. The warmth came, Jo acknowledged, not so much from the covers tucked around her shoulders but from the heat radiating from the body beside hers. The feeling of safety came not from being inside a roof and four walls but from being enclosed within two strong, masculine arms. Dismissing the weather as not worth consideration, Jo snuggled closer to Brett’s body, luxuriating in the delicious sensation of his nakedness against her own.

God, he was wonderful! A grin tugged at Jo’s lips. She was wonderful too! She was a woman! Not merely a female, but a living, breathing, sexually responsive woman! Brett had proved it to her. Proved it in the most primitive way possible. He had made her his, figuratively as well as literally. Brett did not know it, and Jo prayed he never would, but with his possession of her he had earned himself a slave. Jo had been in love with him last night. This morning, what she felt for him came so close to adoration, it scared the wits out of her. Still, perhaps enslavement was worth the price for enlightment. All her fears and insecurities concerning her ability to respond physically to a man had been swept from her mind by the pulsating rush of sexual fulfillment.

Go to hell, Gary Devlin!

Jo gulped back a gurgle of laughter and snuggled still closer to Brett. She felt terrific! She felt fantastic! She felt ... Jo compressed her lips to contain a fresh surge of laughter. She felt Brett’s hand stroking slowly up the inside of her thigh!

“Are you trying to tell me something with all your wiggling around?” Brett’s breath whispered over Jo’s temple an instant before his tongue outlined the edge of her ear.

“I—I was just thinking how cold the wind sounds, and how warm it is in here,” Jo explained, her breath catching as his hand found the apex of her thighs. The entrapped breath vibrated in her throat producing a tiny gasp when his long fingers began combing through the dark thicket.

“I have a feeling it’s going to go from warm to red hot very quickly if you continue wiggling your fanny like that.” Brett punctuated his assertion by stabbing the tip of his tongue into her ear.

Jo’s tiny gasp matured into a deep-throated moan as Brett’s fingers slid lower to explore the moist heat of her core. And it was heated! The realization was both a shock and a delight to her.
