She had known that he could move quickly. Still it was a shock when she found herself pressed against the back of her seat, his face inches from her.God's blood, woman, how much control do you think I...
She nudged his arm to wash under it, where his dark hair grew in a swirl.Where the scent of his masculinity was the strongest.She shouldn't find this erotic. A lady shouldn't find this erotic.And yet...
She swallowed.He was covered, of course, but she knew what lay beneath the sheets- she'd seen him entirely nude at the Lords' revels. She had the image burned into her memory: a proud, thick penis, he...
She lies! cried the Fox, and he leapt toward her, his arm raised.The Wolf lunged, seized the Fox's right arm, twisted it up behind his back, and slammed the other man to his knees.Iris stared and felt...
Iris lay there, her eyes closed, her golden hair spread on the pillow, half-turned toward him.She must've been exhausted to have fallen asleep so swiftly.The candlelight sent shadows spilling from the...
Iris, came a low, smoky snarl from the doorway. Come here.She felt Hugh's arms tighten around her as she glanced over her shoulder.Raphael stood on the threshold, Ubertino, Bardo, and Ivo behind him....
When he'd woken this morning, her soft limbs entangled with his, he had spent long minutes simply gazing at her in wonder. Her lips were a dark pink and parted softly, and her eyelashes lay against he...
This? He thrust short and hard into her, the impact sending jolts of pleasure through her body. Yes, that, he murmured to himself as if pleased, and did it again.And again.Until the heat between them...
Her gaze dropped to the right side of his mouth, to the corner of his lip that was permanently pulled into a slight snarl by the edge of the angry scar, and then to the other side of his mouth, to the...
Raphael walked into the breakfast room at the unfashionable hour of half past nine the next morning and kissed his aunt on her soft cheek. Good morning, Zia.Up at last, was her tart reply as she peere...
He appeared to have pushed down the coverlet and undone the first few buttons of his banyan. Sweat had pooled below his throat, just at the junction of his collarbones, and she could see a few black h...
Raphael lifted his good hand- it felt uncommonly heavy- and stirred a finger through the jewels until he found the ring. His hand trembled as he lifted the ring from the box. Lock it again and give th...
She placed the soapy cloth on his shoulder, briskly stroking over smooth skin, trying not to notice how firm the muscles beneath her fingers were.She kept her gaze strictly on her hand.Still, it was i...
She felt enthralled by him, enthralled by her own sexuality. He bared something in her that she hadn't even known was there before she married him.Something base, primal. Had it always been there, thi...
His wide brow, his Roman nose, those too-cold eyes, and the lips that in another life- another, better world- would still have been beautiful.This man was her husband. He was intense and intelligent,...
His nostrils flared just a little bit, and the lines bracketing his mouth grew deeper. He snarled with his beautiful, twisted lips and she thought, half on the edge of falling again, she thought he lo...
Her breath caught as she swept over his nipple with the cloth. Did he feel that? Did it feel any different from the rest of his skin? Did he feel as she did when cloth brushed over her bare nipples?Sh...
He was covered, of course, but she knew what lay beneath the sheets- she'd seen him entirely nude at the Lords' revels. She had the image burned into her memory: a proud, thick penis, heavy sac, and c...
