Excerpt
Excerpt
“Good to see you again, Niklaus,” she said, keeping her voice
low as she poured his cup. “You know, I’m starting to think you’re purposely
seeking me out.”
That corner of his mouth drew up again, but she wouldn’t
consider that a smile, not with the way he was looking at her. “I am, unless
you mind.”
Oh…
She hadn’t thought he would come right out and admit it. “No,”
she said after catching her breath, her face flushed. “Not at all.”
Reagan was readying to walk away when he gestured to the seat
opposite him. “You have a minute?”
“I—sure.” She didn’t think she could have walked away if she
tried. “What’s up?”
“What are you doing after work?”
She swallowed, the sound loud even to her own ears. “I’m…uh…well,
nothing. Just home, I guess.”
When had she turned into this stuttering mess? Like she had
never talked to a guy before?
“Come home with me then.” He said that without blinking or
stuttering, and making sure she understood just how serious he was.
Since they weren’t busy, she didn’t mind sitting with him,
actually found that she enjoyed being in his presence, even if he didn’t reveal
much. As the statement and the implications of it hung between them, she had no
idea how to respond. She wasn’t even sure therewas a correct way to
respond to that.
But after a second, she found her voice. “What are you asking
for?”
The question was whispered, almost as though she was afraid that
their conversation might be overheard. Before he could answer, as she was
finally accepting what he had asked moments before, she knew, as any woman
would, exactly what he wanted.
“One night,” he said, his gaze like a physical caress as it
swept over her from head to toe and back again. “Or two.”
A flush of heat swept through her at the dark promise she saw in
those blue eyes of his. No one had ever looked at her that way before, like she
was utterly, and completely, desirable.
Like she was the only thing he wanted to taste…
