Chapter 13

With Step so majestic theSnail did advance,

And promis'd the Gazers a Minuet to dance.

Grasshopper's Feast,William Roscoe

Morgan waited in the library a few minutes after Clara left, trying to calm the raging erection in his skintight breeches before he made a spectacle of himself in Merrington's ballroom.

But it was difficult when he kept playing over and over how sweet it had felt to have Clara moan with pleasure in his arms, accept his kisses eagerly, grow silky wet beneath his fingers. And then to have her admit she wanted to touch him, too! He'd thought he would explode when she put her hot little hand inside his breeches to stroke him, all shy curiosity and womanly temptation.

He wiped sweat from his brow.Bon Dieu , if that was what she could do to him when her surroundings kept her from actually bringing him to release, only think what she'd do to him at leisure in his bed. Which is where she'd end up if he wasn't careful.

And what a temptation. She wanted him, too. So why not let her have what they both wanted? Ah, to be able to touch her without restraint… to part those long, luscious legs and bury himself inside her soft, waiting flesh—

He swore as his cock stiffened again. At this rate he'd never get out of here. She was driving him mad.

He had to stop thinking of her, that's all.

No, what he had to do was remind himself of the havoc she'd wreak on his plans if he followed his prick. She was already badgering him with endless questions. If he involved himself with her, there was no telling how far she'd go in her quest for the truth or what she'd do once she learned it.

Besides, he wasn't what she truly wanted. If they shared a bed, nothing could come of it except ruin for her. Unless he married her, of course, which he couldn't do. Even if he was ready to marry—and he wasn't—why would a marquess's daughter want to be stuck with a rascal like him? What possible advantage could she find in having a naval captain sail in and out of her life from time to time?

That sobering thought thoroughly dampened his ardor, and a few moments later, now depressed in both body and heart, he left the cozy library.

His business with Ravenswood was done, so he might as well leave the ball. He couldn't stand by and watch Clara dance with a series of eligible gentlemen, all of whom would make her better companions than he would.

But he hadn't counted on running into her right outside the passageway. Nor, worse yet, his brother and sister-in-law.

Panic surged in him as he hurried up in time to hear Juliet say, "So Lord Ravenswood tells us that Morgan has been helping you at your home for pickpockets."

"Helping me?" Clara said, clearly bewildered.

Morgan stepped up and took her arm, squeezing it to beg her indulgence. "Lady Clara doesn't like to think of it as 'helping.
