Was that how she appeared—as fumbling and inexperienced as if she had no knowledge of men? 'Of course not'
What the hell was he thinking of—asking a question which risked making a fool of him? Since he had been transported to this exotic and unknown land he had started inventing fairytales—was that it? As if a woman of her age who looked like she did would be a virgin!
Oh, yes—he would show her, all right He began to slide the slippery silk up her leg, splaying his hands and stroking his fingertips along the soft surface of her inner thigh until she gasped.
'Unbutton my shirt,' he instructed unevenly.
Laura complied, silently willing her fingers not to fumble, but she was so eaten up with nerves and excitement that it wasn't easy Please make this everything I think it could be and want it to be. Or was that asking too much? 'My hands are trembling,' she admitted.
'So I see,' he said drily
'Xavier' she gasped, just as his mouth dipped to kiss the curve between neck and shoulder, just as his hand slipped down between her legs to where the heat was most intense
'Shall I make you come first with my finger?' he mused 'And then my tongue? And then with this?'
He guided her hand down to where he was exquisitely hard Just let go, she told herself If this is the only night you have with him, then why not give in to your every fantasy? 'No,' she whispered as she touched the rocky ridge of him 'I want to feel you inside me '
'MonDieu'' he moaned 'You drive me crazyl You touch me and you talk to me like ' Like what? Not like a virgin, no But with some quality which made it feel special, different As if she was speaking from the heart
He was used to worldly lovers who used polished and erotic skills to pleasure him—but there was something so unaffected about the way Laura reacted to him As if it really mattered Xavier tensed And it didn't matter.
Who cared if she was unworldly? She was a woman he had been foolish enough to confide in—but that was done now, and this was the perfect opportunity to wipe that memory away and replace it with something else.
In that second, something in Xavier's resolve changed, and he felt it in the almost imperceptible hardening of his body. It was time to demonstrate his finesse, to make love to her in such a way that every man who followed would provide just a pale imitation of the pleasure she had known with him.
Without warning, he lifted her up into his arms 'What are you doing'?'
'What do you think? I am taking you to bed because I want to enjoy you in comfort,' he ground out, as he began to carry her towards his bedroom
Enjoy you in comfort.
She couldn't work out whether that was sexy or insulting But her craven body told her that it was too late to back out now, and she just leaned back against his hard chest as he carried her into his bedroom.
Her first thought was that this room was on a much more lavish scale than hers, but then he was laying her down on the bed and towering over her like a dark statue—his black eyes gleaming as they swept over her in sensual assessment
'I think that I am wearing a little too much, don't you?' he observed, as he peeled his shirt off and tossed it aside.
Laura swallowed. His torso was rock-hard and honed with muscle, and the sprinkling of dark hair on his chest arrowed enticingly down to where he began to unbuckle his belt.
He saw her emerald eyes widen as he began to slide the zip down, and he smiled, because this was how he liked it.
This was Xavier in control Xavier about to pleasure a woman and then walk away, as he always did. Maybe not today, or even tomorrow—but walk he would eventually, without a backward glance or a single doubt.
'Xavier,' Laura whispered, because as he slid his trousers off she became suddenly daunted by the sheer magnificence of his body. Those tensile thighs, like iron itself, and narrow hips, and Laura closed her eyes.
'Open your eyes,' he said softly, as he moved onto the bed and pulled her into his arms, a frown creasing his brow 'Why do you shiver so? You are frightened? Because I am so big?'
'Daunted'
He gave a cool laugh 'You have the lawyer's precision with words—but this is no time for them, and you are wearing far too many clothes Viensio '
He slid her negligee off, and the matching nightgown—until she was as naked as he was He groaned as he looked at the lush breasts and the enticing triangle of dark red hair between her thighs
'Later I shall feast my eyes on you,' he murmured 'But first we shall feast on each other, because my hunger is too great to wait any longer' Xavier bent his dark head to take the puckered rosy tip of her nipple into his mouth, his tongue flicking around it, his teeth gently grazing
A shaft of desire shot through her 'Oh' gasped Laura, her head falling back against the pillow .
'Oh, Xavier'
