Moonbeams of Unintended Consequences
By Muffy Wilson
Genre: Contemporary Romance/ Erotic Romance
THAT night...
SHE wore a
flowing, form fitted white spaghetti strapped gown that cascaded in tumbled
silken folds to her abdomen and revealed her breath in the soft rise of her
alabaster breasts. Her eyes reflected an emerald depth with gold flecks that
edged to hazel and were framed by neat, arched brows that narrowed to her
temples where her heartbeat announced the rhythm of her life. Her only
adornment was a starkly white gardenia nestled in the curves of her auburn
curls. The heavy floral fragrance of the corsage announced her arrival as she
glided elegantly to her aisle and settled, like a dove, into her center seat.
She was alone...but not for long.
Would she regret
her indulgence?
HE was a
towering, self-assured giant of a black man, chest broad and arms outstretched
in opulent black leather. His dark mahogany eyes locked irresistibly onto her
and declared his desire. The opera house erupted with his full bass-baritone
harmony. His musical seduction began, and his hypnotic gaze was met by her eager
response as she answered his desire with a blush.
His hypnotic gaze
met her heated blush with hunger.
THEY spent an
insatiable night together in Room 457 of the Historic Whitcomb Hotel locked in
a magnetic embrace riding moonbeams of passion and ribbons of desire. He took
her to the edge, to a special volcanic place inside, somewhere she had never
before been and never been since: fiery, impatient, burning, yearning. That
magnetic connection fueled a love that wove them irretrievably together in ways
that only the future would disclose--a future neither of them ever anticipated.
Would the only man
she could turn to help, as the secrets of the past reveal her betrayal?
“A bientot,
mem’selle,” he had said. She hung on every word with rapt expectation for their
next meeting as he moved into the crowd of admirers.
She watched as he
worked the room, seducing male and female alike with his charisma and
brilliance. He was a master in the simple ministration of his charm. He spoke
with confidence, smiled at nonsensical nervous banter and made everyone most
relaxed in his presence with an effortless touch.
The night edged on
and she resigned she was like all the others, seduced by the sheer presence of
the man. She sought out the Morrisons and bid them a grateful goodnight. She
went into the library where her wrap was hung. A manly black hand extended and
took it from her grip and as she spun, he curled her into his embrace with her
shawl.
“My room key at the
Hotel Whitcomb. The town car service I called to take you there is waiting
outside. Room 457. Have I presumed too much, mem’selle?” as he pressed himself
into her body and the key card into her hand. The low melodious tone of his
voice melted any thought of resistance.
“I, ah…No, you have
not presumed beyond expectation. I long to taste you; I ache to feel you inside
me, truly, and I thank you for your discretion. The Morrisons are long time
friends of my parents who don’t yet consider me a grown woman,” she smiled into
his down-turned eyes and smelled his heat.
He ran his
fingertips from the wrap on her shoulder down the inside of her arm to the soft
swell of her breast and lingered. His fingers caressed her naked flesh under
her arm above the cut on the satin of her gown. Her knees buckled under the
weight of her desire and he caught her as she fell into his full embrace.
“Oh, God,” she
breathlessly gasped and looked up into his dark eyes. “Do all women respond to
you like this?”
“You are not all
women. Go, now. I will be there within the hour. Sooner if I can get myself out
of here. Room 457, do not forget. It isn’t written on the card.” He bent and
put his full lips, so soft, warm and pliant, on hers in a sweet parting kiss.
Jordan reached up
and touched his ebony cheek, in a promise, then left for the town car waiting
out front.

When he arrived, he
wore a black, red silk lined cape black as he. He shed it to the easy chair and
crossed the room in three long strides. He cupped her left cheek in his right
palm, magically raised her to her feet in one motion, clasp her flute of
champagne in his left hand, then set it on the table. He wrapped his left arm
around her waist and pulled her into him and off her feet with a kiss. She
melted to his will, sharing it beyond measure.
She thought she
died in his embrace, time so seemed to arrest. And in some ways, she did die.
She relinquished all that was she, opened herself to him and him alone in ways
she had never before done or felt. She was electrified by his touch, magnetized
by his kiss - destined to be his.
No, she did not die
in his embrace but came alive in his arms.
