18. Education - Jack/Elizabeth’s acquisition of worldly knowledge.
~ Sharp Sauce ~
The light of the single candle flickered on the shadowed ceiling. They lay side by side on the rumpled covers, Elizabeth entirely unable to quell her satisfied smirk as Jack's harsh breathing gradually slowed, though the echo of his helpless cries seemed to linger.
His fingers found her hand and tightened on it, convulsively. "Where, by all that's holy, did you learn that?"
She turned toward him, raising herself on her elbow, and kissed his cheek. "Did you like it, then?" She could not resist, softly stroked his smooth bronzed chest, then lower, until he captured her wandering hand with a gasp.
"Wicked chit, no! Give a man a chance, will you?"
"Poor darling."
"I'll poor darling you,” he said, that velvet growl in his voice. “Where did you learn it?"
"Made it up!" He raised a skeptical brow, so she added, "I may have been inspired by a certain conversation that took place at the Green Goose the other day."
"Molly?"
"And several other women, including Mistress Ching and two of her ladies in waiting. They were very… knowledgeable."
"Ah. They would be. Very advanced, the Chinese. They know things about the human body, about pleasure and pain, that most Westerners never even imagine. I've learned a few things from them myself over the years."
"Singapore?"
"And elsewhere." He turned onto his side to face her. "Shall I show you?"
She swallowed hard at the look he was giving her. "In... in the interest of scientific enquiry?"
"Mostly." He ran a finger lightly down her arm. "Revenge is such a negative word."
"Revenge! Jack--"
"More like tit for tat. Sauce for the gander…“
“…Is required for the goose?"
“Not just required. Essential. Even vital.”
She shivered.
A smile touched his lips. "No worries, love. You won't scream. Much."
