her nipple, need sizzling through her.
    “Delightful,” he murmured. Giving her breast a gentle squeeze, he resumed his leisurely exploration.
    She gasped, her body frozen in place as her eyelids fell to half-mast. Even if he’d released her, she knew she would not have been able to flee. The pleasure was simply too great, unspeakable bliss ricocheting through her system.
    Drifting in a light haze, she made no attempt to stop him as he unfastened the buttons on her nightgown. Pushing the cloth down over her shoulder, he exposed her bare breast, her stomach clenching as his naked hand closed over her. She whimpered as he played upon her, her eyelids sliding closed against the fierce wash of delight.
    They flashed open, though, when he gave an unexpected tug and toppled her across his chest. His fingers speared upward into her hair, popping loose the ribbon that had confined her locks in a neat tail at her neck. Her long, straight tresses swung free, cascading down in a flaxen curtain that framed both their faces. Cradling her head, he leaned up and captured her mouth in a kiss that drove all thought from her mind.
    Fire shot through her limbs, a moan erupting from her throat as he traced his tongue over her trembling lips. The moment her mouth opened, he took advantage, delving inside to stroke her with a wet, velvety glide that made her quake. He urged her to follow his lead, tempting her to match his kisses with ardent, avid ones of her own. She clung, yielding completely as he kissed her with a dark, undeniable need she washelpless to resist. Neither could she resist his touch as his hands roamed over her body in bold, sweeping forays.
    A hunger she barely comprehended rose inside her, blood racing in great throbbing beats through her system. An ache formed between her legs, making her shift with restless, wanton abandon.
    Cade turned abruptly, rolling her onto her back so his weight pressed her deep into the feather tick. Burying his lips against her throat, he kissed her long and slow before roving lower, scattering caresses wherever he went. Sliding open the bodice of her nightdress, he palmed her breasts again, stroking each one in turn in ways that soon had her panting.
    Then he moved lower still, her back arching as his mouth closed in hot, wet bliss over one tender peak. He suckled upon her, laving her with tongue and teeth before transferring his attention to her other breast.
    Her hand came up to cup his head, her fingers sliding into the thick silk of his hair. Delirious with passion, she caressed his cheek, a moan echoing from her lips. His hands stroked her, one palm slipping beneath the hem of her nightgown in an upward glide from calf to knee to thigh.
    Leaving her breasts, he nuzzled in the curve of her neck. “Hmm, so good,” he muttered. “So soft and sweet.”
    She smiled, swept away by his touch.
    The hand beneath her nightgown roamed higher, brushing over the curls between her legs, touching her with an intimacy she hadn’t expected. A hot quiver flooded through her, heart pounding as if it might beat from her chest.
    He nuzzled her neck again, scattering kisses. “God, I want you. Oh, sweetheart. Oh, Calida.”
    Calida!
    Meg’s eyes shot wide, her body stiffening. Her heart pounded again, only this time not with passion, but instead with pain.
    Dear Lord, what am I doing? she cried, her desire withering as abruptly as it had begun. She shoved at him, tears springing to her eyes. “Stop!”
    His lips glided over her cheek, his palm stroking across the vulnerable flesh of her lower body.
    To her dismay, she felt herself respond again in spite of her outrage. Shivering, she used both hands to give him another hard shove. “No!” she declared. Despite his greater size, desperation lent her the strength to push him off.
    “What?” Catching himself on one elbow, he shook his head and blinked, his confusion plain.
    She cringed. My God, even now he’s not truly awake, she realized. The drugs were
