”Nicki looked
at the handsome face slowly descending to hers and knew she should run. Once
she let him kiss her, she sensed she’d never escape. Not until he wanted her to
go. Ordinarily that thought would have had her scooting out of his reach, trying
to protect herself from the heartbreak that would come from loving Vale. Every
woman who saw him wanted him. Why should he stay constant to one?
But his eyes
were heavy with desire, and she’d never seen anything like their narrow-minded
intent. Such beautiful eyes. He was about to kiss her with the passion she’d
always longed for, and never expected to find.
She’d fought
off groping hands as many nurses had, and she never let herself be alone with
Pringly. He’d tried to take her to dinner in spite of the stricture against
hospital staff dating. He’d tried to corner her in the hall, in the clean-up
room after an operation, even in some of the patient’s private rooms. Always
the ones who were too sick to be believed if they reported such an unlikely thing
as a doctor raping a nurse. Finally, fearing for her virginity, she’d left the
hospital. Although she liked nursing, she didn’t think she’d go back to it as a
profession. Genealogy was fascinating, and a much safer occupation for a young
woman.
Now she’d found
the one man for her, even though her mind told her it was temporary. Vale would
be hers only for a brief time, but perhaps she should taste love while she had
the chance. Surely she’d never match the intensity of her feelings for Vale
with any other man.
Her lips felt
hot, her body throbbed in a manner that surely was indecent, but she couldn’t
possibly turn her face away from his. Her lower body in particular pulsated as
she felt his lower body pressing against hers.
More than anything else she wanted his kiss. His kiss that she knew
would open a new world for her. And she craved whatever else he chose to show
her. Anything he wanted she wanted. He’d leave her eventually, she realized
that, although she strove to smother the thought. Perhaps she could somehow
learn to be such a passionate lover he would stay with her for a glorious
while.
She never
thought she’d allowed herself to be so passive. But he’d become irresistible.
His fantastic and alluring looks, his eyes that bored into her very soul and made
her feel she was the most desirable woman in the world. Even the way he moved.
Like some jungle creature sure of his power and narrowing in on his prey. But
his manner did not seem that of an overbearing and arrogant male animal. She
thought him above resorting to domination. Never ruthless. He seemed as anxious
to please her as she was to please him.
She was
completely confused but she no longer cared.”
