Often, she searched for a feeling of resentment for being treated as if she were his property, but to her surprise, that feeling had disappeared. Good lord, I’ve been brainwashed. He’d bedded her once, and now she was thoroughly compliant. Never underestimate the power of sex, she thought ruefully. “You’re so quiet since this morning,” Daniel noted. “Are you okay?” “I’m fine.” Daniel searched her eyes. “You sure? You look pale.” Heat burned her face. “Well, whose fault is that? You didn’t let me sleep last night.” Daniel had kept her awake until dawn, introducing her to the art of lovemaking. She felt sore and tired, but it was a pleasant experience.
