With deft fingers he loosened the petticoat and let it fall in a heap at their feet. “There is nothing to fear,” he whispered, “nothing.” Her breath caught when he untied the first small bow that held her chemise closed. He untied the others quickly and feathered his fingers over her shoulders, skimming the muslin aside and drawing it down her arms. Shame washed over her, hot and pulsating, as the evening air touched her bare breasts. She closed her eyes, wishing she could die on the spot. An instant later she opened her eyes again, terrified of what he might do when she wasn’t watching. Loosening the drawstring waist of her pantalets, he crouched before her, tugging the breeches down her legs, pulling off her high-topped shoes as he divested her of the garment. As he stood back up, it was his turn to catch his breath. His memories didn’t do her justice. For a moment he couldn’t drag his gaze from her, so fascinated was he by the glowing whiteness of her skin, the delicate curves, so long hidden from him by chin-high calico and multiple layers of muslin. Settling his hands on her narrow waist, he drew her toward him, his heart slamming as the pebbled tips of her small breasts came into contact with the flesh over his ribs. In the dim light he could see tears shimmering on her pale cheeks. He bent his head to catch their saltiness with the tip of his tongue. “Ah, Blue Eyes, ka taikay, ka taikay , don’t cry. Has my hand upon you ever brought pain?” “No,” she whispered brokenly.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Catherine Anderson" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/catherine-anderson/swinging-to-his-feet-hunter-scattered-the-fire-so-the-flames-licked-2/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/e5a/catherine-anderson-308_flames_swinging-to-his-feet-hunter-scattered-th_2459893.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/e5a/catherine-anderson-308_flames_swinging-to-his-feet-hunter-scattered-th_2459893.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/e5a/catherine-anderson-308_flames_swinging-to-his-feet-hunter-scattered-th_2459893.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Swinging to his feet, Hunter scattered the fire so the flames licked feebly at the wood and threw the lodge…” — Catherine Anderson", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 4, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“Why this girl?” Hunter tossed a sliver of wood onto the flames. “Another will not do.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Catherine Anderson" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/catherine-anderson/why-this-girl-hunter-tossed-a-sliver-of-wood-onto-the-flames-another/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/c37/catherine-anderson-308_flames_why-this-girl-hunter-tossed-a-sliver-of_2548356.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/c37/catherine-anderson-308_flames_why-this-girl-hunter-tossed-a-sliver-of_2548356.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/c37/catherine-anderson-308_flames_why-this-girl-hunter-tossed-a-sliver-of_2548356.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Why this girl?” Hunter tossed a sliver of wood onto the flames. “Another will not do.” — Catherine Anderson", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 5, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“When everyone had been dispatched, he turned to Loretta, one dark eyebrow cocked, his indigo eyes twinkling with laughter. “One wife and only one wife, forever with no horizon?” Loretta’s gaze chased off, and her cheeks went scarlet. Clasping her hands behind her, she rocked back on her heels, then forward onto her toes, pursing her lips. “I told you, Hunter, I refuse to play second fiddle.” He smiled--a slow, dangerous smile that made her nerves leap. His heated gaze drifted slowly down the length of her. He grasped her arm and led her toward his lodge. “Now you will show this Comanche how good you play number one fiddle, yes?” “I--” Loretta’s mouth went as dry as dust as she tripped along beside him, her arm vised in his grip. “Surely you don’t mean right now. ” Her startled gaze focused on the lodge door. “It’s not even dark yet. People are still awake. You haven’t eaten. There’s no fire built. We can’t just--” He lifted the door flap and drew her into the dark lodge. “Blue Eyes, I have no hunger for food,” he said huskily. “But I will make a fire if you wish for one.” Any delay, no matter how short, appealed to Loretta. “Oh, yes, it’s sort of chilly, don’t you think?” It was a particularly muggy evening, the kind that made clothing stick to the skin, but that hardly seemed important. “Yes, a fire would be lovely.” He left her standing alone in the shadows to haul in some wood, which he quickly arranged in the firepit. Moments later golden flames lit the room, the light dancing and flickering on the tan walls. Remaining crouched by the flames, he tipped his head back and gave her a lazy perusal, his eyes touching on her dress, eyebrows lifting in a silent question. “Do you hunger for food?” he asked her softly.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Catherine Anderson" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/catherine-anderson/when-everyone-had-been-dispatched-he-turned-to-loretta-one-dark-3/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/094/catherine-anderson-308_flames_when-everyone-had-been-dispatched-he-tur_2615235.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/094/catherine-anderson-308_flames_when-everyone-had-been-dispatched-he-tur_2615235.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/094/catherine-anderson-308_flames_when-everyone-had-been-dispatched-he-tur_2615235.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“When everyone had been dispatched, he turned to Loretta, one dark eyebrow cocked, his indigo eyes twinkling…” — Catherine Anderson", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } } ] }, { "@type": "CollectionPage", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/flames/catherine-anderson/#webpage", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/flames/catherine-anderson/", "name": "Flames Quotes by Catherine Anderson", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#website" }, "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/flames/catherine-anderson/#itemlist" }, "primaryImageOfPage": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/07c/catherine-anderson-308_quote_swinging-to-his-feet-hunter-scattered-th_677197.jpg" }, "description": "5 Flames quotes by Catherine Anderson.
