him play it.
    She hadn't of course. She'd already made a fool of herself and she wasn't about to go there again.
    Reaching into the freezer, she pulled the chicken entree out and removed the top, reading the directions before popping it in the microwave.
    He was still watching her when she turned around.
    "What?"
    "Nothing,” he said.
    "Then why are you staring at me?"
    He grinned.
    "Do I even want to know what you're thinking?” she asked.
    "Probably not,” he laughed.
    "You have a one track mind."
    "Can't help it,” he said. “I told you how long it's been."
    "And you expect me to believe that?"
    "It's true. I was forced into that clinic with no way to escape. There wasn't anyone there worth fucking."
    "God, do you even think before you speak?” she laughed.
    "Not usually.” He rolled his tongue behind his teeth and she laughed louder when he titled his head and gave her a look that said more than words ever could. Turned down twice in one day and he was still trying.
    "You're impossible."
    "Impossible to resist,” he said. “Now stop torturing yourself and come here."
    "I have to watch the chicken,” she said. “Besides, I never said I wanted you."
    "But you do.” His silky voice floated over her skin and Holly forced her body not to react to it.
    He inhaled deeply, his eyes closing briefly before he looked back at her. “I can almost smell how bad you want me."
    She sighed, uninterestedly. “Delusional."
    "I'll come and get it myself."
    She laughed. “The floor is yours, hop-along. Have at it."
    Holly was mildly shocked when he took a small step toward her. She watched him, each small step taken with care until he was half way across the room.
    She backed up without thought and stopped only when her back hit the kitchen counter.
    That ankle couldn't hurt as bad as he let on because he was standing in front of her before she had time to think about running.
    His hands grabbed the cabinet on either side of her, trapping her within his arms and his body flush with hers an instant later.
    "Now, what's this I hear about you not wanting me?"
    Holly swallowed hard, staring up into those bright green eyes. “I don't,” she squeaked out.
    "Don't what?” he asked, lowering his head. His lips hovered just above hers. She could feel his breath on her skin and she licked her lips unconsciously. “I want to hear you say it. I won't believe you until you do."
    She wanted to say it. Was screaming it inside her head but the words never came. She opened her mouth, tried to get what she was thinking to come out but ... nothing.
    He grinned, dipped his head, and kissed her in the next second.
    The heat from earlier returned with a vengeance. His scent clouded her senses and the feel of his body pressed against her caused the tingle to start low in her stomach and spread like wildfire.
    She moaned, her knees weakening when his tongue made a slow twist inside her mouth. He took his time, tasting and sucking at her lips, causing the hair on her arms to stand and goose bumps to pimple her flesh.
    He kissed her near breathless, her body screaming for his touch.
    The kiss was broke suddenly and she looked up, staring at him through lust filled eyes. He was grinning, his tongue caught between his teeth.
    He raked his eyes down her chest, her nipples hardening as if he'd actually touched her, and she almost begged him to do it. Anything to make the ache in her body stop.
    "Tell me you want me."
    He raised his hand, his knuckles brushing her cheek in a soft caress before one long finger trailed down her jaw to the top of her shirt. He pulled the material out, looking down her shirt before lowering his hand to the top of her left breast.
    The ache intensified, her stomach twisting and her pussy convulsing. God she wanted him. She wanted him inside her, filling her, the warmth of his flesh pressing her into the ground.
    She swallowed and moistened her lips. Something intense flashed behind his eyes and she knew. Knew when she said the
