“At the moment, this rogue would like you to take off your gown.”

Taking a mental breath—because she reallywasrather nervous—Kathleen grabbed her skirts and yanked her dress up over her head. Unfortunately, she also got her shift tangled in there, too, which meantshegot tangled up. By the time she got the bloody dress off, she was flushed and thoroughly annoyed with herself.

Grant, however, had a hand pressed to his mouth, clearly trying not to laugh.

“If you utter so much as a chuckle, I will walk out of this room,” she threatened.

He plucked the gown from her loose hold and tossed it behind the sofa. “Not without your dress, you won’t.”

“That was a new gown, I’ll have you know. At this rate, I won’t have anything left to wear, what with riding about in thunderstorms and you tossing my clothing on the floor.”

It took her a moment to notice that Grant was staring at her with an expression she could only describe as . . . greedy.

“Yer bloody gorgeous, lass.” When Grant stroked his erection through his breeches, Kathleen almost fainted.

She had to swallow twice before she could answer. “Thank you. Now, please take off some ofyourclothing. Fair play, and all that.”

He flashed a wicked smile. “I’ll be playing, all right. And while I’m undressing, why don’t you start on your stays—which, I might add, are very pretty.”

She’d worn one of her nicest pairs, front lacing and cream colored, and trimmed with tiny embroidered flowers and pink ribbons.

From the size of Grant’s erection—which was now tenting his breechesquiteimpressively—he also liked her stays.

She began to slowly unlace the garment. Grant quickly unwound his cravat and tossed it aside, then went to work on the buttons of his waistcoat. When one snagged, he simply jerked on the vest, sending the button whizzing past her.

“You lost one,” she politely said.

He snorted. “I think I’m also losing my mind. Now, would you please come back here while I still have a few wits left?”

She strolled over to stand right in front of him, continuing to leisurely unlace her stays. Grant brushed her hands aside and finished the job.

“I thought I was supposed to be seducing you?” she said, resting her hands on his shoulders.

“Trust me, I am thoroughly seduced.”

Grant eased her stays off and dropped them to the floor, leaving her clad only in her shift and her stockings.

“Och, yer like a fairy princess in yer dainty things,” he rasped.

She’d worn one of her nicest shifts, too. It was sheer cambric, tied with pale pink ribbons.

With a teasing smile, she played with one of the ribbons. “So, you like my shift, too?”

Grant reached out and pulled her between his legs. “I certainly like this.”

He dragged a thumb over the outline of her already stiff nipple. Kathleen couldn’t hold back a moan.

“That’s my lovely girl,” he murmured.

Both of his hands now came up to her breasts. He took his time playing with them, teasing the taut nipples through the fabric. Kathleen’s knees actually went wobbly, and she had to keep a grip on his shoulders.

She arched her back when he tugged one of the throbbing peaks. “Oh, Grant!”

His only response was to lean forward and suck her nipple into his mouth, and then begin licking her through the cambric. She squirmed as he lavished caresses, and she had to clamp her legs tight against the luxurious sensation already building between her thighs.

Grant finally pulled back. “Now that’s a pretty sight.”

The wet and now completely transparent fabric clung to her nipples. They were flushed, stiff and hard, and still aching for his tongue. She dug her fingertips into his shoulders, silently begging for more.
