An Improper Suitor (2011)
“She wore a white and blue evening dress made of some shimmering material that glimmered and flowed as she walked. An odd thing, the way she came alive when she moved. If she sat still, one could overlook her, but not when she was in motion. It had a fluidity about it that forced him to follow her with his eyes.
Which was precisely what he did. He watched as she glided down the stairs, took in the gentle curves of her body, the graceful unfolding of her arms as she reached for the banister, ...the confident sensuality of her legs as they reached down for the next step.
He had not done so badly for himself, after all.
But then he caught sight of her face. It matched her clothing. The particular shade of blue which ice had when it was very cold.
She looked down upon him from the height of the stairs as if she wished he would just suffer an apoplexy and fall to the ground. It would not do at all. They were supposed to be betrothed, for heaven’s sake, even if it was a secret at the moment.MoreLess
