nibbled on the lobe of her ear and dragged his teeth down the side of her neck. Sensual pleasure rippled through her and he pulled her hips tighter against him, arching his back to rub his cock against the curves of her butt.
    â€œWhat do you think?” he asked.
    â€œToo much is at stake for guessing.”
    â€œYou’re right. I want you, Jayne. I want you for my mistress. No more games or play-acting. I want the real thing.” Mentally he knew the impact of this moment was going to be felt for a long time. But one of the first business lessons he’d learned was that some actions were inevitable and the price would have to be paid.
    â€œMe, too. But I want more than just your body.”
    â€œGood.”
    â€œGood?” she asked. “You know this will impact our working relationship.”
    â€œI told you I want to know all your secrets.”
    â€œThat would leave me with nowhere to hide.”
    He stroked her face. He’d give anything to be rid of the lust that was running rampant through his body.No, that wasn’t true. As much as he enjoyed Jayne in his office, he knew that he’d enjoy her as a lover even more. And he realized that all these long months when he’d thought he’d done a good job of ignoring her as a woman, he’d been fooling himself. He’d been waiting for her. Waiting for the right moment to do this.
    â€œDon’t you think we’ve done enough hiding?”
    Her fingers kneaded his thighs. “Is this an equality thing?”
    Instead of answering he pulled her more firmly against him and swept his hands over her, lingering at the full curves of her breasts. Cupping them in his hands and rubbing his palms over their tips until he felt them bud and nestle against him.
    Her breath caught in her throat and she shifted against him. He plucked at her nipples and lowered his head, suckling the side of her neck. Her fingers clenched against his thighs and he grew painfully hard. He knew that if he didn’t have Jayne soon, he was going to self-combust.
    â€œLet’s go back to the room,” he said.
    â€œYes.”

    Jayne stopped analyzing and just enjoyed being with Adam. She fairly pulsed with need and couldn’t wait until they got to their room to make love. She’d seen a very exquisite negligee in her new wardrobeand wanted to see Adam’s reaction to her in her gown.
    â€œOn a night like this I can easily imagine that pirate Antonio sailing into port here with his beautiful maiden.”
    Adam’s stride was loose and relaxed. It was the first time she’d walked anywhere with him that wasn’t at a clipped paced. This was a side to him that she hadn’t seen before, and she wanted to explore it more. She wanted to make sure this time on the beach and the magic it wove around her included him, as well.
    â€œI’m sure she wasn’t a maiden when they arrived here,” he said in a wry tone.
    â€œUnless she was in love with him, I bet she was,” Jayne said.
    â€œDon’t put too much stock in love, chère. Passion would have made her change her mind.”
    She remembered what he’d said about his father earlier. But she couldn’t believe that Adam didn’t believe love existed.
    All of his relationships were designed to insulate him from feeling anything. The part of her mind that loved puzzles wondered if there were other variables that his mistresses of the past had in common. Physically, she’d noticed they all tended to have long legs and full breasts.
    â€œPassion’s overrated. A few pheromones and some scanty clothing are all it takes to evoke passion.”
    â€œThat’s lust,” he said.
    â€œMade a study of it, have you?”
    He lifted one eyebrow in a very wry expression that made her feel as if she were a naive schoolgirl. She didn’t like the feeling, but knew in this instance she was. She didn’t have any of his
