“Matthew, I wanted to talk to you.”
He stepped closer to her. “And I you.”
“Why did you want to speak with me?”
He pulled her closer to him. “You ran out on me at the Astons’ party. You were upset and I had no way of comforting you.”
Jennette stared at the brass button on his jacket. “I was upset.”
“Then you should have stayed so we could talk,” he whispered softly, then kissed her jaw. “It’s only been a few days and yet, I’ve missed you dreadfully.”
“Have you?” she asked as her lips tilted upward.
“Mmm,” he said, moving his lips to her ear. “We really need to talk.”
“Yes, talk,” she replied as the heat of his lips against her ear sent moist heat to her womb. They really should talk before they do this again….
He shifted his lips to hers and she was lost. She had no desire for conversation, only for him. Brushing his hair back with her hands, she returned his kiss. His tongue swept across hers, deepening the passion she felt for the man she loved.
As his lips trailed down her neck, she knew they should stop and talk first. But she needed him. Now. If he didn’t return her feelings, this would be their last time together. This might be the last time she could be this intimate with Matthew.
And she could never do this with another man. He was the only one she wanted to comfort her, to be with her. If she couldn’t have Matthew, she wanted no other.
After loosening her gown, he slid it off her body slowly, leisurely, as if they had all the time in the world. And they did. Her mother would understand her need to be with him. The rest of her clothing dropped to the floor in a pile until she stood completely naked in front of him. Unlike the first time, she felt no embarrassment.
“I want to undress you,” she said with a seductive smile. “I want to touch every part of you.”
His eyes darkened to slate. “As you wish, my lady.”
He held out his arms for her to remove his jacket. She skimmed her fingers up his chest to his shoulders, watching his reaction. As she slipped the jacket off him, Matthew kissed the nape of her neck sending shivers down her back. She wanted him now but she needed this slow.
She unraveled his cravat and then slid it over her breasts, teasing him. She loved to watch the emotions play across his face. Lifting his white, linen shirt slowly over his chest, she revealed hard muscle and warm skin. Finally, he grabbed it out of her hands and ripped it over his head.
“Getting impatient?” she whispered in a husky voice.
“Yes.”
“I’m sorry, because I have far too much patience today.” She reached for his trousers and then looked down at his boots. “Those have to go.”
His smile turned positively
sinister. “Then take them off.”
“Sit down.”
Her body burned from his passionate gaze as he sat on the end of the bed. She stood in front of him and pulled until the first boot popped off his foot. After repeating the motion with the second boot, she put her hands on her hips.
“Now stand,” she ordered.
“Very well.”
She closed the distance between them, letting her breasts rub against his bare chest until he moaned. She moved her fingers down his chest until she reached the buttons on his trousers. One by one, she released the buttons until she could slide his trousers down his legs.
Once she had him completely nude, she brushed her breasts against his chest and wrapped her arms around his neck.
“Jennette,” he mumbled against her shoulders. “I want you now.”
Arching against him, she whispered, “Now, Matthew.”
