“I paid the barman two hundred pounds to alert me when you came in.”

She burst out laughing. The admission was so utterly unexpected that it completely broke through the ice of her heart. “You aren’t serious?”

“Yes. After you threw my card away, I knew it was the only way I would see you again.”

“How did you know?” She gasped, her eyes wide.

He nodded towards the windows.

“Uh huh. I see.” She lifted her hands to his chest, feeling so much better now that he’d admitted how badly he wanted to meet her again. “I didn’t want to learn your number. I didn’t want to call you again.”

“Where is your phone?”

She thought about questioning him, but she was quickly learning that Layth Sati always got what he wanted and so she slipped it wordlessly out of her back pocket.

He swiped the screen then tapped into it. A noise rumbled from another room. “Now I have your number. And you have mine.”

A shiver ran down her spine. She had the sense he wasn’t just talking about the phone.

“You will stay with me today.”

“Will I?” She thought of the mountain of work she had to do; appraisals to verify and insurance quotes to oversee.

His eyes widened. “Yes.”

“I have another question for you first.”

He shrugged, confident that he’d won. He’d won her. She would be in his bed until it no longer suited him. H

e didn’t question his sense of relief – he simply relished it.

“Who are you?”

“Layth Sati. You know this. And you are Cassandra Walton.”

Her cheeks dusted with a becoming shade of pink. “I mean who are you to have a little army stationed downstairs.”

“Ah. That would take some more explaining.”

She gasped when he reached down and scooped her up, cradling her against his chest. He carried her as though she weighed little more than a feather, through the apartment and into a bedroom with spectacular views from enormous windows. He released her onto the bed; not gently, but with purpose.

“Well? Are you going to explain?” Her words were husky, her breathing rushed.

“I am going to have you now. I have been waiting since you left for this pleasure. I do not wish to wait any longer.”

Cassie pushed up on her elbows, tempted to argue. But she could feel the throbbing heat between her legs, and instead, she collapsed back and laughed. “No point in pretending it’s not what I want too.”

His smile was a reward. It was beautiful and enchanting. “Good.” He pulled her pants from her body quickly, tossing them to the corner of the room. She lifted up so that he could ease her shirt over her head.

“This is how I like to think of you. Naked. If I had my way, you would be always naked with me. Ready for my possession.”

She groaned at his sexy words; the imagery sent her pulse into overdrive. She was lifting her hips, despite the fact he was still clothed. She needed him badly.

“Undress me,” he commanded, stepping back from the bed.

Cassie’s heart was racing. Her fingers were shaking as she lifted his shirt over his head. His chest was so toned; his muscles so defined. She couldn’t resist darting her tongue out and tracing circles around his nipples. She felt his shuddering intake of breath and smiled. Her hands fumbled with the button of his pants, as she pushed them lower. She had to crouch to the floor so that he could step out of them. His erection was at her eye level. She flicked her gaze up to his face; his expression was pinched, his face flushed. She ran her fingers the length of his penis, and then wrapped her lips around it. He groaned as her warm, moist mouth surrounded his arousal.

Her tongue teased him and she felt him throb. “Enough,” he grated, reaching down and pulling her up. “I want to be with you.”
