More Than a Lover
“God, she wasn’t the one who should be ashamed. The blame belonged to Carothers. She’d been an innocent whereas he had been a man of the world. He’d also been a bit of a bully. Blade had more than once suffered the lash of his wicked tongue and his fists, until he’d grown large enough to defend himself.
No wonder she had seemed so blatantly innocent. And so wonderfully enthusiastic when she realised the pleasures there were to be had of a partner in bed. It had just never occurred to him tha...t such a prim and proper woman with a child had never been married.
Yet all the signs had been there. The maidenly blushes. The modesty. The anxiety. He’d not seen them because he hadn’t wanted to see them. He’d wanted her to be like his usual fare. A widow happy to enjoy a bit of pleasure with no expectations of or desire for anything lasting.
A ripple of disgust wormed its way through him.
Disgust at his behaviour, not just with Caro but with the other women who had come his way, even if they hadn’t seemed to mind.MoreLess
