know I'll come hard again the second I feel his finger at my entrance. I scream his name as he slowly pushes two fingers into me. My breath stalls when I feel him touch a spot deep within me that pulls an uncontrollable need from within. I writhe beneath him, nothing existing in the moment but my desperate need to feel the pleasure he's giving to me.
I close my eyes as I finally feel my breathing level.
"Lilly." His moist lips are on my cheek now, his strong arms wrapped around me. "Sleep. Sleep here with me."
My voice is barely audible as I feel the softness of a blanket being draped over me. "I'll sleep," I whisper without opening my eyes. "I'll sleep."

"Can you have dinner with me again tonight?" His eyes race over my body as I step from the shower stall into the cool air.
I'd left him in the bed. I needed the comfort and time that a warm shower offered when I woke up in Clive's arms. I remember coming over and over again last night while he licked and tasted me. I fell asleep pressed against his chest and woke up in the exact same position. "You want to have dinner with me tonight?"
"Did you get water in your pretty little ears?" He reaches for another towel to dry my hair, pulling it softly across my ear. "I want you to have dinner with me tonight."
It's Friday and like every other night of the week my social calendar is empty. "I'm free tonight."
"Are you free tomorrow night?"
I look down to where he's now kneeling, drying my legs carefully. "You want to have dinner tomorrow instead of tonight?"
He flashes me a vibrant grin. "I want to have dinner with you every night for the next year. I'm going to ask you every day."
I smile down at him, soaking in the image of such a strong, brilliant man taking care of my most basic needs. "I'd like to have dinner today and tomorrow."
"What's your favorite kind of food?" He's on his feet now, adjusting the waistband of the pajama bottoms he must have put on before he came to find me in the shower.
"I like Thai food."
"I can't cook Thai food."
"I like Indian food too."
"I'll need a cook." He brushes his lips over my forehead. "Tell me what your favorite flower is."
"Why?" I look up into his eyes.
"I want to send you flowers one day and I'd prefer if they're the flowers you like most." He runs his hand over my hair. "I can brush your hair for you if you want me to."
I take a step back, my trembling hands reaching for the counter. "I can brush my hair."
"Lilly?" His hands leap to my cheeks. "What is it?"
He can't know. No one knows. "It's nothing."
He swallows hard. "It's your mother, isn't it? She brushed your hair for you?"
I nod, knowing that if I try to verbalize any response that it will come out wrapped in a sob.
"Come here." He wraps his strong arms around me, pulling me into his body. "You don't have to be so strong. I can be strong for you."
I rest my head against his chest as I listen to his words and the strength of his heart beating within his chest.

"You didn't tell me when I hired you that you tamed Clive Parker." Alec is leaning against the door to my office. "He's got great taste in flowers. I'll give him that."
I smile as my eyes flit over the beautiful bouquet of white lilies Clive had sent for me. The card delivered with them had brought an even broader grin to my face.
THEY'RE NOT AS BEAUTIFUL AS YOU. CLIVE XX
"Is it a problem that I'm dating him?" I ask just as the question floats into my mind. I hadn't thought about it because Alec and his assistant had both made it clear to me that they didn't care what I did on my off time. I'm sure neither of them would have imagined that I'd be dating one of their competitors.
"I can think of a dozen other guys who are better for you." He tips his chin towards me with a sly smile. "You're a sweet girl, Lilly. Just be careful."
I take the warning with a grain of salt. I know that almost everyone who has crossed paths with Clive views him as cold and heartless. I was
