Ravin failed miserably in his attempt not to stare at Isobel. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull his eyes away from her. Desire arose within him once again as he watched her drink from the flask. His brown eyes followed a bead of water that rolled down her cheek to her neck before finally coming to rest on her breast. His mouth went dry and a wave of fire seemed to wash over him when she sat down with her thigh resting again his.

"Tell me, Señor Ravin," she said softly, leaning over to whisper in his ear. Her warm breath on his neck sent an exhilarating shiver down his spine. "Is cheating what you do best?"

He turned, his lips nearly brushing against hers before he quickly backed away and grabbed the flask. While gulping down whiskey he tried to get a grip on his raging hormones, but that wasn't easy. When he lowered the flask, his eyes fell upon her curvaceous leg. As if it had a mind of his own, his hand reached out, wanting to caress the soft flesh. Ravin managed to pull it back just before it reached its destination, and ran his fingers through his hair instead.

Dear gods, give me strength! he thought, as he closed his eyes and lay down upon his back. "I only cheat when it's absolutely necessary," he said, looking up and meeting Isobel's eyes. Gazing into her lovely brown orbs was a lot safer than looking at anything else right now. He lifted his head for another drink of whiskey, accidentally spilling a little on his bare chest. Obviously, the liquor was working, slowly down his normally quick reflexes.

After a deep sigh, he let his gaze roam along Isobel's face once again. "You're a very beautiful woman," he said, lowly. "Normally, I have excellent self control around beautiful women, but it’s slipping because of the whiskey." Slowly, he sat up and gathered his belongings into his arms. "I better leave now, before I make a fool of myself by pulling you into my arms and……"

He left the sentence hanging, got to his feet and staggered a little as he made his way to the tents that were set up near the pond. After getting permission from a centaur to use one of the tents he went inside, tossing his belongings into a corner. Of course, he kept the whiskey flask in hand, and took another drink from it before stretching out on a thick blanket that covered the ground. He stared up at the ceiling of the tent for a moment then closed his eyes and envisioned the lovely Isobel in his arms.
