From the way Sam looked up at her from where he still sat in the middle of the living
room floor, it seemed he felt the same way. The knowledge took her breath away. All
evening had been leading to this. The wine, the food, the conversation that grew more
and more personal until it seemed the only way they could possibly grow any closer to
sharing their souls was to strip naked and share their bodies as well.
But did she dare take him up on the silent invitation that hung in the air? As she
settled down onto the floor beside him, she sensed she would have to be the one to
make the first move. The forceful man she d first met in the clearing had softened in
their time together. He was still deadly attractive and exuded an undeniable sensuality.
But other than the one gentle kiss he d given her, he d been a complete gentleman. He
would probably let her walk him to the door and say her goodbyes without any attempt
at seduction if she could find the strength of will to put such a conservative end to their
first impromptu date.
Did you get your drink of water?
Yep, Lila said, folding up the pizza container and wondering if she should save
the last two slices for Arthur. She was doing her best to concentrate on anything but the
sexual tension humming between her and the man not five inches to her right.
You re finished? Sam asked, brushing his hands off on a paper towel.
Couldn t eat another bite. For a person who hadn t been hungry, she d done the
majority of the damage to the extra-large pie.
Good, because I ve been waiting for your mouth to be free, Sam said, closing the
distance between them with one, unmistakable intention.
The moment Sam s lips touched hers again, she realized how wrong she d been to
think he d gone soft on her. Far from the sweet, tentative kiss of earlier, he was assured,
blatantly sexual. His lips moved over hers with the confidence of a man who knew how
to get what he wanted. Lila found it impossible not to respond.

As the Lady Wishes
His hands searched her body, pausing to caress her breasts, undoing the buttons of
the soft shirt she d put on and reaching inside. His hot fingertips on her skin made her
sigh, and when they found her nipples, she gasped out loud.
Oh God, Lila, he murmured, his voice muffled by her lips against his. I ve been
thinking about this all night. How much I wanted to touch you again.
He kissed her throat, tracing a path of fire with his lips down her skin to her
collarbone, pushing her shirt open further as he did so. She shook her shoulders, letting
the fabric slide down and Sam helped her remove it completely.
Again his hands were on her body, warming the skin of her back. He unfastened
her bra and slid his hands forward, under the cups to cradle the soft weight of her
breasts. Her entire body tensed, waiting for him to touch her, for him to transfer the wet
heat of his mouth to her tingling skin.
She didn t have to wait long. His tongue moved to caress her taut nipples, sending
fire shooting through her body to pool between her legs. She wrapped her arms around
his waist and pulled him closer, pressing her stomach against the luscious bulge of his
erection.
She wanted him. Oh God, she wanted him so badly, wanted more than what they d
done earlier in the woods. She wanted his skin hot and naked against hers, wanted his
mouth to leave her breathless, wanted his cock to fill her body.
As if he d read her thoughts, he pulled away. Where s the bedroom? His blue
eyes were dark now, midnight blue and glazed with desire.
She took his hand and led him toward the darkened room. They were going to do
this, there was no longer any uncertainty in her mind. She only wished she could say
the same about Arthur s. Where was he? What was he thinking? Surely he wouldn t
have left her alone with Sam if he hadn t been giving his unspoken permission for them
to explore their feelings, both sexual and otherwise. He d openly encouraged her to
accept Sam s dinner date invitation, hadn t he? That had to mean something.
Be here with me, Lila, Sam suddenly said, pulling her tightly to him before
backing them both toward the bed. Whatever it is that steals your attention from me,
from us, let it go. Just for a little while.
As his lips crushed against hers once more, Lila felt her mind obey his command.
She was here, she d made her decision. Sam deserved all of her focus, all the attention
of her body and mind.
She d put clean sheets on the bed earlier, and was glad of it as they sank into the
fragrant softness together. Sam s shirt was quickly unbuttoned and she helped him pull
it off, their lips still hot on each other s in a kiss so ferocious, her lips hummed with
energy and colors flashed behind her closed eyes.
Feverishly, she ran her hands over Sam s bare chest, over the hard muscles and the
soft skin, tangling fingers in the small patch of hair over his pecs. He sighed against her
mouth, his hands growing bolder, unfastening her jeans and sliding them off.

Her panties were already soaked with excitement when he touched her through
them, making her whimper. Her hips lifted of their own accord, the combination of his
touch and the memory of his hands on her earlier in the day already sending her near
the edge.
Sam, she gasped, her desire making her bold. Get your pants off, Sam. Hurry.
He smiled at her, his lips bruised from the force of their passion. In a minute, he
said. Good things come to those who wait.
Oh God. Her hands fisted in his hair as he trailed slow, soft kisses down her
body, nibbling the undersides of her breasts, tickling her ribs with his tongue, then
dipping it into the small well of her bellybutton.
The heat between her legs was unbearable and it grew hotter with every inch his
mouth traveled down her body. Her heart was pounding. She could feel the blood
rushing through her veins, racing to the surface of her skin and to the tiny bud nestled
between her legs that screamed for Sam s touch. He hooked his hands under the
waistband of her lacy panties and slid them off, exposing her to his gaze.
He didn t waste any time, but zeroed in on where she ached for him, his tongue hot
and wet, delving into her folds with one long stroke that made her entire body tense.
Aaaah! she cried. Her legs spread wider, helped by Sam s strong hands. His
tongue was a deadly instrument of pleasure as he explored her, licking every inch of
her sex, circling around her entrance and sliding inside.
Lila s hips bucked forward, urging him deeper, straining toward the fulfillment that
was oh-so close, but he pulled back. Patience is a virtue, he chuckled.
Please, no more clichés, she moaned. I can t take it.
I bet you can, he said. His tongue flicked against her clit again, softly, then
harder, then soft again, setting up a steady rhythm that threatened to drive her out of
her mind.
Her eyes were closed, her head shaking back and forth as her body became Sam s to
manipulate, Sam s to use as he wished. She felt the pressure building in her pelvis,
more heat rushing to where she was already engorged and wet.
Her body trembled as she neared the peak, every muscle shaking, building to what
promised to be an orgasm of epic beauty. Yes, she moaned as Sam, sensing her
urgency, sped up his movements. Sam, yes, yes, yes&
It hit her, sending her spiraling, eradicating her awareness of everything but the
pure pleasure throbbing through her body. Her back arched, her body thrumming with
an energy, a power, she could not believe. A power she could not control.
But Sam could. Sam s hands held her in place, reassuring her that she was safe, that
