used to hearing your strange, catlike noises.”
    “Maybe they will.” If she had anything to say about it, they would. Her body was warm and relaxed against his firm one, as if hot water flowed through her veins. How would she ever allow this man to leave her sight and go back to his supposed dreary life of watching over other people’s money? Making him her prisoner of love would make her much happier. Even the thought pulled her lips into a smile.
    His mouth found hers. “You’re smiling,” he whispered, never moving his lips from hers.
    “And you’re not?” she said, challenging him. Tenderly, she brushed back the shock of hair from his forehead.
    “Oh, most definitely I am, Talia. Can’t remember smiling this much—not in a long time.”
    “Then stop talking and smiling and kiss me.” She snaked her arms around his neck, rubbing her cheek against his prickly one.
    Taking her in his arms, he rolled to his side, pulling her with him, kissing her, punishing her already swollen lips, his tongue finding hers, battling for dominance. A small sigh escaped her lips as she snuggled into his warm embrace. Never had she felt so complete. So womanly. So—dare she think it—loved.
     
     
    The next morning dawned with a cold so cold Natalia thought her tender nipples would surely freeze and fall off from frostbite before she could pull on her clothing. And if she was worried, there was another person’s important body part that she’d hate… How absurd . They weren’t going to lose their valuable body parts, not if she could help it. She let out a low bark of laughter.
    Daylight brought a bit of light into the stable. Jared, who was also getting dressed, glanced at her. “What’s so damned amusing?”
    “I was thinking you’d better hurry before something very important to both of us gets frostbitten.”
    His forehead furrowed, pulling his thick, dark brows together. “You think it’d be funny if my cock froze?”
    “Well, it is rather exposed at the moment.” His dick rose like a limestone pillar. “Could happen if you’re not careful.”
    “Don’t you worry, Natalia. I learned a long time ago how to care for my prick. It’s instinctive among the male gender.”
    “No doubt. Indeed, Reginald deemed his cock so precious, I was forced to worship at its altar more times than I could count. Sadly, he never returned the favor.”
    “That is—was—his loss. Don’t understand it myself.”
    He moved closer and caressed her cheek, filling her heart with a rush of new-found emotions. “I’m glad to know there isn’t anything wrong with me, after all.”
    “ You are a gift to mankind, and I’m honored you shared yourself with me.” He swept a theatrically low bow.
    She held back a giggle. The man was still naked from the waist down. And while she still could, she took in the sight of his long, strong-muscled thighs. Lean hipped and flat bellied, he had a slightly furry chest with a whorl of black that dipped to a patch of black hair where his thick cock jutted at her in a most friendly manner.
    “What?”
    “Observing my lover,” she said. “It was so dark last night…”
    “Yes, it was the blind leading the blind.” His expression seemed lit from within as he leaned over and placed a quick kiss on her forehead.
    “All the same, you did exceptionally well.” She smiled, fluttering her lashes for effect, yet feeling abashed at their frank exchange.
    He yanked up Reginald’s Levi’s, cutting off her view. “Someone better mind her own business, or she’s going to be the one minus a couple of very pretty…”
    He wiggled his eyebrows; then, grinning, he bent to take a nipple in his warm mouth, obliterating all her thoughts of caring for the animals and getting back to the ranch house. Every time he used his mouth on her body, she wanted nothing more than to slide his fine cock between her legs. Her body suffused with heat; she clung to him, wishing they could make love again on the
