As she lifted the skirt to examine it, Hunter stepped into…
““As she lifted the skirt to examine it, Hunter stepped into the lodge, sending her scurrying for cover under the buffalo robe. Flashing her a mischievous smile, he said, “Maiden sent the clothes. Next time, you will not be wrapped in so much wannup , yes? It will take us much less time to do nothing.” He turned and left the lodge before Loretta realized he had made a joke. It took even longer before she smiled. There was a promise behind the lightly spoken words. Next time, it would take them much less time to do nothing. With a new lightness in her heart, Loretta sprang from the bed and slipped into the beautiful outfit Maiden had made for her. It fit perfectly. She ran her hand over the soft supple leather that skimmed her chest, her cheeks flaming. She might as well be naked. The tail of the blouse scarcely reached past her waist, falling in a straight sweep from her bustline, loose and airy. Knowing Hunter’s penchant for reaching under her clothes, she couldn’t imagine herself wearing this around him. And she skirt wasn’t much better, hitting her at the knees, with a tease of fringe around the bottom. No underwear, not a stitch! It was scandalous.””
