down. But Gina knew that with Dark this was how it would be, all excitement and hot, frenzied sex. All this served to inflame her imagination so much so t hat she awoke confused about how she really did feel about the Scotsman.
As she lay in bed her body tingling with desire for the man Gina had to try to concentrate on her next move. She had the specifications for his new development but what was the point if this wonderful new development was nothing more than just another tablet computer?
But one thing Gina did know, she wanted to see him again. Despite what she knew about him now she ju st couldn’t pretend he didn’t exist, she had to sample more of the handsome , sexy man who had the power to make her feel so hot, and so needy . Despite all her intentions to get even, and reject him, she still wanted him, wanted his body and to feel her own body burn with his touch. And sooner or later Gina knew she’d get her way.
These vivid imaginings going on in her head were sheer torment and Gina groaned with frustration. Business, she reminded herself. Keep your mind on the business and on retribution, and not on getting into his bed. Easily thought but not so easily put into practice.
On a more mundane front, if he did contact her again, she needed to think up a reason to excuse her absence when he’d returned to the penthouse. With any luck he’d forgive her, what then, she challenged herself? How did she intend to cope with her intense physical craving for his man? Damn him, she thought, the man’s a devil equipped, even when he wasn’t near her, with the ability to heap sweet torment on her body.

“But it’s just another tablet computer,” Gina told her bluntly and feeling, that apart from the interlude with Matthew Dark , the whole episode just hadn’t been worth the effort. On reflection t hat bit had been well worth the time she’d been forced to spend with Charlie and his cronies.
“Despite all the excitement of last night it’s all a bit of a let down really because the market will be awash with them in no time. If we intend to continue then we need something else so I’m just going to have to try again.”
She took a sip of her tea and watched puzzled as Grace shook her head.
“ No, you’re not, Gina. But y ou’re quite right about it having nothing particularly new. It’s got a top ‘spec and it looks lovely to handle and its fast. In fact there’s nothing this little beauty hasn’t got. But that’s not it,” she paused and smiled broadly. “It’s the price,” she waved one of the printed sheets at her.
“ Dark plans to market this at less than half the cost of others of this quality.” Grace gave her a moment to consider this and then added. “He’ll clean up. Who wants to pay twice or even three times the price when they can get something this high end for so much less?”
She should have realised. That’s exactly what Dark Electronics was good at. Repackaging what already existed and offering it to the market at a fraction of the cost. Gina had to admire him. He had the buying power and his factories in China , plus what he’d acquired from the Deverell buy out, to enable all this.
“So now we know what he’s up to just what are we going to do with the information?” Grace asked. “Even if we tell his rivals they aren’t going to be able to offer their products for less, not yet anyway.”
