«Depends.»
«On what?»
«On where you touch me. And how.»
Sha
«I don’t know how,» she said.
«Explore, honey girl. I’ll survive.»
«But —»
«Unless touching me offends you?»
Sha
Whip shrugged. «Some women don’t like touching a man at all, much less where he’s most a man.»
«Truly? I’ve spent most of my time wishing I could touch you, even…there.»
«You’ve got your wish.»
She smiled despite the blush burning across her cheeks.
«Tell me if I hurt you,» she said huskily. «Although how I could hurt anything so hard is beyond me.»
Whip made a sound that was part laugh, part groan. The feel of Sha
«Sha
Her hand froze. «Am I touching too much?»
«Not enough.»
«I told you I didn’t know how,» she said unhappily.
Breath hissed between Whip’s clenched teeth. When Sha
«Like this,» he said hoarsely.
Sha
The knowledge that Sha
But then, he had never had a virgin widow looking at him before, watching his eyes and enjoying his flesh like a cat discovering catnip for the first time.
«You’re shivering,» Sha
«Much better.»
She smiled and stroked all of Whip’s body slowly, soothingly, for she could feel that some of the tension had left him. As she caressed him, she looked down at the swirling surface of the pool, where streaks of golden lantern light intertwined with black water.
«I wish I could see as much of you as I can feel,» Sha
Whip’s heartbeat kicked hard as hunger rushed through him once more.
«Honey girl, you’re going to be the death of me.»
She looked at him, startled. «What do you mean?»
«I’m not sure I can tell you, but I’m damn sure I can show you.»
With that, Whip captured Sha
While he kissed her, his fingers stroked from Sha
The sound was lost in Whip’s mouth, but Sha
One of Whip’s hands slid slowly up between Sha
Sha
«What’s wrong?» Whip murmured against her lips. «We’ve done this before.»
«And then you raged at me and wouldn’t touch me again.»
«Not this time. This time I know you’re a virgin. This time I’m going to touch you every way I can, but one.»
Whip’s hand moved swiftly, hungrily. A ripple of tension went through Sha
«I —» she said raggedly. «I —»
His thumb circled the knot of swollen flesh he had drawn from her softness. Sha
Concerned, Whip reluctantly withdrew from Sha
«What?» Whip murmured. «What is it?»
«I feel so strange,» she said raggedly.
«But do you like it?»
A long finger eased into Sha
«Yes,» she whispered. «Yes.»
Even more than Sha
No, Whip told himself savagely. I can’t risk it.
What risk?came his own instant retort. There will never be a safer time of month for her. It will never be easier for me to control my own release than it is right now, when she has just given me such a sweet easing.
There were more arguments in Whip’s mind against taking Sha
«Did you mean it?» Whip asked when he could go no farther into her.
«What?» she asked, dazed.
«That you wanted to see me?»
«Yes.»
«Good. Because I sure as hell want to see you. I’ve been dreaming of watching you again, all honey and cream and fire. I’ve dreamed some other things, too.»
«What?»
«When I show you, you’ll blush all over.» He laughed softly. «But you’ll love it.»
Whip stood up and walked out of the pool with Sha
Steam lifted in silver wisps from Sha
«The cabin will be cold,» he said huskily. «And it’s too far.»
«It’s just a few steps.»
«Like I said. Too far.»
Sha
«Sha
«Whatever you want,» she said huskily. «However you want it.»
Whip looked from Sha
«Don’t tempt me, honey girl. I want you in ways that would make you blush to the soles of your pretty feet.»
Sha
«Do you?» she asked. «What are they?»
Whip opened his mouth. No words came out. He lowered Sha
For she was looking at him, too. The blunt, heavy flesh she had so recently measured with her hand looked very intimidating.
Whip put his fingers beneath Sha
