Excerpt:

The young woman’s hands shook as she reached up to untie her bonnet and remove it. She lowered it, twisting the brim with her hands. Her lip trembled and her eyes looked glassy with tears as she bowed her head and followed his directions. Taken aback by this show of tears and nerves, he wondered if he had made a mistake. She did look quite young. However, as she had come willingly, he dismissed his concern.

Once she disappeared from sight, he lit more candles. The lamp behind the screen illuminated the woman’s shadow. While he watched her disrobe, fierce desire stirred in his loins. As he continued to watch, he reached down and rubbed his cock, which grew bigger by the minute. She had petite, pert tits, and he couldn’t wait to feast on them. If he were a betting man he’d wager she had small berry-colored nipples, as he always preferred.

When the woman finished undressing, she stood perfectly still as if frozen, so he called out, “Please, come here.” He heard her take a deep shuddering breath, and it gave him pause, making him again question his decision to engage her services. By this time he was so greatly aroused, he pushed his hesitation away again.

Just when he thought she wasn’t coming from behind the screen, she stepped out, moved a few feet, and stopped. His breath caught when he saw her. The sheer, pale blue silk robe showed her luscious curves to advantage. She was everything he desired, plump breasts with deep pink nipples, alabaster skin with a small patch of auburn pubic hair. Her tiny waist and gently flared hips drove desire straight to his already aching cock. Reminiscent of the statues of the Grecian goddesses he had seen when he visited the British Museum, definitely an alluring young woman’s body. Her graceful figure fed the fire deep in his belly.

However, as he observed the pensive expression on her face, he suspected she might be too fragile and young to handle such extreme sexual desires. “How old are you? You look younger than I thought.” As much as he’d hate it, if she wasn’t eighteen, he would need to send her on her way.

“I j-just celebrated my twentieth b-birthday.” Rushing her words, she added, “I’m old enough.”

A blush rose up her cheeks, as she pulled the sash apart. The robe slipped from her shoulders and fell to the floor. Her beauty stole his breath. Never, in the last three years he’d done this, had he picked up such an exquisite female—and she belonged to him for the entire night. He stepped closer. In a husky voice, he murmured, “I’m going to blindfold you. I promise I won’t hurt you.”

She looked up. Her face paled, and her eyes grew large as she backed away. “No, please don’t.”

Warren raised an eyebrow. “Come now. You’re a woman who’s sold her favors before. It can be quite titillating to be blindfolded. All your other senses are more acute. Don’t act missish. It’s not as though you’re a virgin.”
