"Do you think you and Khalid can just kidnap h to make up for it?"

She had to force herself not to let a shiver of pleasure race through her body as his fingers h To where the silk of her gown fell away fro to clasp his thigh, to rub herself against hiht to maintain her senses, to control the need to sink back into his kiss, to allow him to sink into her, however she could convince him to do it

But she knew this man Dominant Powerful A force to be reckoned with in a world so different from her own that it may as well be an alien planet

"Kidnapped you? I?" Aer "Had I kidnapped you, hellcat, you would well know it," he finally scoffed, and the anger was readily apparent just as his accent becaers relaxed He stepped back slowly before reaching to the side and flipping the lights on as he released her

For a second, she was blinded Her eyes snapped closed and when she opened theain a second later, he was halfway across the roo for the bar

For a drink She was tempted to join him

He moved like a predator

Paige watched as he stalked al to the bar on the other side of the roo back, he poured a whiskey from the looks of it, and if she wasn’t mistaken, it was Khalid’s finest

His head tilted back as he took a hard drink Thick, heavy black hair fell nearly to his shoulders, the blue-black strands silky and glistening in the bright overhead light

"Get out of here before I insult Khalid by fucking you in his bed," he snapped

"Talk about a ry look froe to keep froe blinked back at him "Damn, that sounded almost depraved, Abrarace and predatory strength And pulsing, blazing,her panties further and sensitizing her clit to the point of painful need

Just the sight of hith and a power that made her knees weak

He was tall, broad, and muscular There wasn’t an ounce of fat on his six-four frame, or beneath the exceptionally soft white shirt and orn jeans

Finishing the whiskey he sat the glass on the bar behind hi hers She could feel that look through every inch of her body Sensitized and aching for his touch, her sk felt too tight, constricting as she tried to still the rapid rise and fall of her breasts

"Rephrasing isn’t the only thing I’d like to do, orin his voice was followed by a heavy-lidded glance along her body

Hell, she may as well have been naked Unfortunately, there was a part of her that wished she was naked

Paige didn’t have to look down to see that her nipples were trying to burrow their way through the silk of her gown

She didn’t bother to tug the robe over the swollen curves or even pretend a shame she didn’t feel And it wasn’t the first time she’d been forced to face Abram as an independent woman rather than the submissive child he often expected her to portray

Unfortunately, he was rarely shocked by her anymore

"And what makes now any different from the past years? There was a time when I would have welcomed your touch, Abraoing on?"

"Besides your deter you with?" He spoke as though he were serious

"Pro in anticipation years ago" She waved the coe the fact that unless you tell Khalid’s goons out there to get out ofto have every one of you brought up on charges That wouldn’t please your daddy, Abram Last I heard oldto re in anticipation? Abram nearly came in his damned jeans with that comment His cock hardened to pure iron, the head throbbed, and if there wasn’t pre-cue watched his black eyes flare with renewed lust A perfectly arched, perfectly male black brow rose lazily "Are the phones in the house not working?" He all but snored her last co to be nice about this, Abram Don’t make me call the authorities"

He waved his hand toward the phone on a nearby desk in invitation "I didn’t kidnap you, Paige Daniel Conover and his security team did so, at your brother’s orders and with FBI Director Zachary Jennings’s approval Would you like to call the authorities now, hellcat?"

She glared back at hi ood to call the cops now as it would to call Khalid," she snapped "Get me out of herethis, Abx201D;

She was desperate If she had to stay locked up even one day longer she was going to go crazy There was nothing to do here No way to focus her energy or to stop fantasizing about this h her ht
