Chapter 2 ‘You will have to help me.’ Sarah got to her feet and turned her back. That was easier, she did not have to look at him. She tried not to flinch as his fingers, busy on the buttons, brushed the bare skin of her neck, then her shoulders, then were kept from her naked skin by her chemise.

The release of pressure on her ribs was not, oddly, helping her breathing at all. I can still stop, I can still say no… ‘I have had a little practice,’ Jonathan conceded. She could hear he was smiling. ‘You can turn round now.’ He was standing there shrugging out of coat and waistcoat. Despite the mask she could see his eyes on her, a dark heat smoldering there. ‘Will you untie my neck cloth?’ That brought her close, as he no doubt intended, her fingers clumsy on the simple folds.
