Chapter One

He could hear her every thought She was driving hie, he'd see to it He wanted to know every tiny thing about her

All Gideon had to do noas find her, which was a joke because he didn't have a clue what she looked like For all he knew she was sorade teacher, Ms Frasier Behind her back, all the kids had called her Old Lady Stoneface because she'd sported a permanent scowl He alondered why she'd becoeant

As he strolled around the room, Gideon constantly scanned the crowd for the one wohts had hinize her the instant he spotted her It was only a matter of time He planned to make her every erotic fantasy come to life

In the nore crowds He steered clear of anything larger than fifty people Considering the party was in his honor, he'd been coh his heart just wasn't in it It hadn't been for a long time He was bored with his work, bored with his house, bored to hell and back with life Coe of pace

Another of her thoughts flitted through hisabout sex, he was going to go insane Herup different scenarios, and he desperately wanted to be thein them

Anticipation lanced through hi,alone No one knew lonely the way he did Hell, if he could be in a roo wine, chatting with friends, flirting outrageously, and still feel alone, he knew there was no hope for him

Most of his friends and associates knew he preferred solitude to parties and crowds But he knew the woman was unlike any of these people She was not in her ele herself inadequate A fish out of water, were her exact thoughts She wanted nothing et the whole stupid idea Gideon idly wondered exactly what the whole idea entailed There was an urgency about her, and he had a feeling she was trying to find a gracious way to escape But he wouldn't let her She wasn't getting away from him He knew her every desire, her every wish, and for soued the hell out of him

Gideon vowed she wouldn't leave the party without him

He walked over to the bar and ordered a beer When he turned around and lazily leaned against the sturdy oak, his eyes roaly around the room once more Then he spotted her He kneas her, and she didn't look a da like Mrs Frasier Christ, she was perfect Every man's fantasy His fantasy This woman was the very definition of voluptuous temptation

Gideon had been o irl-next-door screaht-as-a-pin ones beg to be fucked But none compared And she was still fully clothed A minor detail he'd rectify soon

She wore a black dress, and Gideon didn't have to read the label to knoas silk He could see by the way the dresssuch soft skin The front was scoop-necked and hugged her figure beautifully God, she was gorgeous Why did she think she lacked appeal? Froe point, it seeht to be Her breasts alone could e, round, juicy tits he wanted to lick and suck They filled out the top half of the dress, creating a nice aiven any one particular body part ht before He liked every inch of the female form Noas definitely a breast man

He pulled his gaze away fro a hard-on in the middle of a crowded roorab his beer He needed to cool off Cool off and slon, or he'd embarrass them both

He turned back to the woman who had his libido in overdrive and allowed his eyes to travel the length of her When he reached her legs, he had to stifle a groan of pleasure Though she wasn't supers that would wrap nicely around even his huge body Sweetly displayed in a pair of black puht for what he had in hts ran around in her head Gideon smiled as he pushed away frohts come to life

For a second, Gideon felt the tiniest bit guilty for reading her mind It was an invasion of privacy, and usually he kept strict to his code of honor But with her, rules went out theThere were no holds barred He had to have her Simple as that

His steps faltered the closer he got She was even more beautiful up close with her oval face and honey-blonde hair Honey that dribbled down past her shoulders, held securely in place by adown her back Then Gideon noti

ced she was staring right back When she smiled, his heart sped up

Christ, he was a goner

Lori had no idea what she was doing She ay out of her eleue They were classy, sophisticated She was plain and boring Painfully nor friend, Margaret, had talked her into it Of course, Margaret had abandoned her the instant they'd arrived Darabbed and flitted her away Hoas she supposed to find the blasted woe crowd? It all-to-wall bodies

She only wanted to go hoaret's company, but this yuppie world was not Lori's style In the back of her ht, and it hadn't been because of Margaret Now she wanted to forget the stupid idea and go hos were normal
