cuddled against his side. It was remarkably pleasant.
    “Good night, Mrs. Ford.”
    “Rose,” she muttered. “I’m not officially your wife until you bed me.”
    “True, but I’m not the kind of man to impose myself on a tired and unwilling woman.”
    “I’m not unwilling.”
    “But you are tired.” He leaned in and kissed her mouth. “We have the whole of our lives to sort out the rest of it. Go to sleep.”

    An hour later, Colin was wide awake and rather regretting his heroic behavior. Miss Leyton—Rose—was asleep, her body almost on top of his, her soft inner thigh nestled right against the insistent throb of his cock. He feathered a hand over her hip and buttock, molding her even closer to his hardened flesh, and wanted to groan.
    Her fingers tightened in his hair. “You aren’t sleeping at all.”
    “Ouch.”
    “You’re still awake and being noble.”
    Colin set his jaw. “Don’t worry about me. I’m—” He caught his breath. “God, don’t—”
    She rocked against him, making his cock even harder. Before he could stop himself, he shifted her more completely over him.
    “Mmm…” She now straddled him, and the parts that needed to be aligned were now in much closer proximity. “That’s rather nice.”
    “Good.” He cupped her buttock and slid his fingers lower, seeking her core and the feminine secrets within. “How about this?”
    She was already wet for him, which made him even more desperate.
    In one swift motion, he rolled her onto her back and spread her thighs wide, kneeling in between them. Her nightgown was rucked up around her hips, and her skin was flushed. He didn’t think he’d seen anything so desirable before in his life. With a soft sound, he kissed her, waiting until she opened her mouth to him before cupping her mound and imitating the motion of his tongue with his finger.
    “Oh…” She murmured against his lips and then again. “ Oh , Colin.” He probed deeper, using his tongue both to drive her wild and to instruct her as to the delights that lay before them.
    Her hips rocked against his, seeking what his body yearned to give her. She was soon slick with need and welcoming each thrust of his fingers. He thumbed the hard bud that guarded the entrance to her body until she was writhing on the sheets and begging him for more.
    He eased himself lower, one hand wrapped around the base of his shaft, and rubbed the crown against her needy flesh.
    “Do you want me?”
    She glanced down, and her eyes went wide. Her hand spread out over his chest, holding him back. “All of that?”
    He smoothed her hair from her brow. “Trust me, we’ll fit.”
    With a shuddering sigh, she grabbed hold of his shoulders. “I suppose this is what Great-Aunt Maude meant about lying still and letting you have your way.”
    He kissed her very slowly. “I do want to have my way, but I don’t expect you to lie still. I want your arms and legs wrapped around me, your tongue in my mouth, and your fingernails digging into my skin while you scream your pleasure.”
    Even as he spoke and her eyes went hazy with desire, he was easing the head of his cock inward, pressing and retreating, distracting her with kisses and bites as she became accustomed to his possession. He wanted to take everything like a marauding conqueror, but he knew better. Showing her slowly and carefully how they fit together was his paramount task.
    Except her heel settled on his arse, driving him onward like a wayward horse, making it almost impossible to keep up the steady pace he demanded of himself.
    “More.” She bit his ear.
    “I thought you said I wouldn’t fit?”
    Her answer was a growl as he rolled his hips and gained another inch. His cock was totally encased in her now and throbbing so hard it was a struggle to concentrate. He took two deep slow breaths and pressed home, holding himself steady over her.
    She opened her eyes, revealing a mixture of hope and shy arousal that almost unmanned him
    “Are we
