intimacy of their positions almost too much for her brain to process.
Chance felt her hold herself above him and ran his hands up and down her back, soothing her nerves and urging her to relax against him. After several minutes, he felt her muscles relax and she lowered herself carefully upon his lap, gasping as their bodies made contact through their clothing.
“God, you feel good,” he murmured, once again fastening his lips to hers in a soul-stealing kiss.
Rachel couldn’t even remember feeling this turned on in her life. Sex with Sam had been good, but she had a feeling that it wouldn’t even be in the same league as sex with Chance. She let her mind drift as she gave into the touches and kisses. Sam wouldn’t want her to be miserable. He would have wanted her to be happy.
Chance could sense the wheels of her mind working overtime and raised one hand up to mold her breast, teasing the hardened nipple and loving the way she melted into his touch. “Rachel, do you want me to stop?” he softly whispered in her ear.
He wanted to see their interlude to completion, but he also wanted to give her plenty of time to process what was happening between them. No regrets! He didn’t want her to wake up in the morning hating herself or him.
Rachel heard his question and struggled to find the answer. “I don’t know,” she mumbled, placing her lips against his neck and inhaling his intoxicating scent. The answer was honest. She hadn’t had enough time to figure out what she wanted. Things were moving so fast.
Chance heard the indecision in her voice and groaned as he realized he was going to have to find some measure of self-control tonight. She wasn’t ready to take the next step with him and he wasn’t willing to risk their future by pressing too hard too fast.
Placing his hands at her hips, he pushed her backwards; just enough so that she was still sitting on his thighs, but her center wasn’t pressed up tight against his own. Using his hands to keep her there when she would have scooted forward again, he gentled her rising passion with sweet, simple kisses. Once he felt her desire bank into a simmer, he lifted his head and waited until she met his eyes.
“We can take this as slowly as you want or need. The only thing I ask is that you’re honest with me and yourself. This has nothing to do with your late husband, and everything to do with you. I want you, more than I want my next breath. I want to pick you up and carry you down the hallway to your bedroom and show you just how good it could be between us.”
He used one hand to brush her hair back from her face, “But, I also know that you’re not ready yet. I’m not going anywhere and we don’t have to rush or meet anyone’s time limit but our own.”
Rachel was so relieved and her feelings towards him blossomed as he showed her his true character. The man was amazing. A true knight in shining armor! He actually cared about her feelings and was thinking about the future, not just the present. “Thank you,” she told him sincerely, hoping that her feelings were adequately conveyed in the simple words.
Chance grinned at her, kissing her on the tip of her nose before rising with her in his arms and then letting her down to stand on her own. “You are very welcome. Now, I believe we have a big day planned for tomorrow, so I suggest we both get some sleep.”
Rachel nodded and headed towards the hallway, turning back she met his gaze one more time, “Thanks. For dinner. For helping with the boys. For slowing down.”
Chance nodded at her, saying nothing. No words were necessary. They had something special together and he was going to protect that at all costs.

The trip to the zoo was chaotic, full of laughter and a day that Rachel knew she would remember years from now. The boys hadn’t really cared about the many animals, but their eyes had been full of wonder at all of the new things they had experienced.
