Cassie felt like stars were exploding in her brain.

She’d had plenty of one night stands, but nothing – ever – to match this experience.

The Man had powerfully redefined the boundaries of sex for Cassie. He’d blown every other experience she’d ever had out of the water.

And she didn’t even know his name.

“It’s Layth.”

She blinked her pale blue eyes, seeking his in the mirrored reflection.

“My name is Layth Sati.”

She hadn’t even realised she’d spoken the question aloud. Cassie moved gingerly away from him, the slight wince causing his eyes to narrow watchfully.

“Why do I know that name?”

He captured her wrist before she could take any more steps. “I cannot say.”

She scanned his face. Something about him was familiar. But she couldn’t place why. Her mind was fogged. Her body was drained.

“Your name?”

She bit back her smile. He had a way of turning even simple questions into commandments.

“Cassie.”

“Cassie?” He scanned her face intently. “This is all? Like Madonna? No last name?”

She laughed, a bubbling sound of amusement that tugged at his chest. “Yes.”

“No,” he countered, stroking his thumb across the sensitive flesh of her inner wrist.

“Yes.” She pulled at her wrist, and was disappointed when he let go immediately. “I told you, I’m not looking for anything more than what we just did.”

“And so I cannot know your name?”

“You know my name.” Her smile was teasing. “Cassie.”

“Cassie.”

The way it sounded on his lips sent her pulse hammering in her body.

“You know, I like you like this.” He ran a finger insolently over her breasts, down her naked stomach. “Just you and those ridiculous shoes.”

“Ridiculous? I’ll have you know these are Jimmy Choos and they cost the better part of my last week’s pay.”

He nodded, a look of assumed concentration on his face. “You like shoes.”

“Oh, yes. Shoes, perfume, jewellery. I’m that kind of girl.”

“So I cannot know your full name, but you are prepared to give me a dossier on your sartorial preferences.”

“Yep.” Her grin was disarming, and Layth found himself smiling back at her, his dark eyes sparking with genuine amusement.

“Do you do this often?”
