She shuddered against him at the fingers along her spine and, more importantly, his question. She hesitated in her reply, but her mind was miles ahead with all of the wicked things that could answer him. It was too perfect an opportunity to let pass, but what if she did drive him away with her thoughts? She wanted more than this, already a frightening feeling, but if her other desires pushed him away she would be humiliated. Still, she had to take the risk.

Edging forward on ground she knew was solid, she leaned into the obvious first. "You are quite strong, imposing if you wish to be." Angelica skated her hands along his ribs, still not meeting his eyes as she pieced together her thoughts. "Perhaps I've wondered what it would be like if you were less careful with that strength when we are together." She was torn between anticipation and cringing at her own words. It was still not quite right, but it wasn't as if most of her fantasies began with explaining to him what she wanted. No one was meant to say these things aloud, she was sure of that. With a fortifying breath, she pulled back a few inches to meet his eyes. "Perhaps I would like it if you were less gentle me, Caro." She added the last with a lick of her lips that was more nerves than seduction. The little roll of her hips against him was less conflicted.
