She blinks and stares, probably not listening to a word I’ve said.

“Please leave.” I stand by the door and wait.

“I can’t sleep. I want to stay in here with you,” she says, dropping her ass to the bed.

No way is that going to happen.

“I’ll see you at breakfast Paige. I want you to leave.”

“You’re seriously kicking me out?”

“You have your own room. I have mine. I want my space especially after all of this.” I wave my arms in a wide arc.

She shows no sign of leaving, which angers me all the more. “I’ll call security if you don’t leave because I’ve really had enough.”

“You wouldn’t dare?”

“Try me!”

She opens her mouth but nothing comes out. “I can’t believe you’re kicking me out.”

“Stop wasting time. I’m tired and want to get to bed.”

“Promise me that you won’t spend time alone with Alexander and I will leave,” she smirks, and right now I want to smack it off her face.

I close my eyes and count to ten—it doesn’t help.

I grab her arm and lead her outside into the hallway before she knows what’s going on, and then I slam the door in her face, and put the security chain on.

I sag against the door feeling raw and heartsick.

Moving slowly, I unlock the connecting door and fall into Alexander’s waiting arms.

He kisses my face and lips before he wraps me tightly against his warm chest in an embrace I don’t ever want to leave. “I was tempted to join you in there. I’m also sorry that I’ve caused this argument between you both.”

“No! Please don’t apologize. Neither of us have anything to apologize for. Our hearts chose each other a long time ago.” I smile and glance up at him. “I’m just so glad that you return my feelings. It would have hurt worse if you hadn’t.”

“You’re mine Rachel, and we’ll get through this, but only if we stay together.”

“I’m all for staying together.”

He kisses me on the forehead and picks me up in his strong arms. “We need to stay very, very, close together,” he mumbles against my neck as he lowers us both to his bed. “Very close.” He strips me of the robe, spreads my legs and immediately joins our bodies.

A shudder ripples through me at the feeling of him stretching me in the most delicious way. But when he captures one of my nipples in his warm mouth, I forget everything but the man I love.

Alexander

Breakfast in bed followed by hot sex in the shower, followed by more hot sex on the bed, has me set for the day—it should have me set for the day, but the minute my gaze catches sight of Rachel in her dress my thoughts scatter, and I’m left with my tongue hanging out of my mouth like an idiot.

“You like the dress?” she asks, twirling around the room, laughing.

It takes a moment or two but once I can think again, I snake an arm around her waist and pull her in. “It’s the woman in the dress that I love, but the dress is going to be a favorite of mine, I think. The way the silk caress over your bottom when you walk makes me breathless.” My hand shapes to her womanly curves.

“I think you look sexy in this tuxedo. The way your pants fit, and cup the bulge just for me.” The palm of her hand presses and her fingers gently squeeze while her eyes are alight with arousal and amusement.

“We’re going to be late.” I push into her hand while my hands slide through the long side-split and caress her thighs, and further up.
