“Nope. Raw, hot truth works best with you.” He leaned forward again. “For example, right now, I’m trying to figure out if that mark on your shirt is your nipple or a play of the shadows. If it’s your nipple then you’re getting turned on and soon you’ll be shifting your legs because you’re starting to realize how empty you are without my cock inside you.”

“Oh my god.” She turned and walked toward the door.

“Wait. Aren’t you hungry?” If he kept her in the room, he’d eventually convince her to fuck him.

“No. I’m tired.” She turned, giving him a look that if they were cartoons would incinerate him on the spot. “I’m going to bed. Alone.”

CHAPTER 30: Harker

A little later, Harker crawled into bed. Alison was on her side as far away from him as possible. He almost laughed. He’d cross a freaking ocean on a raft to get close to her, the width of his bed was not an obstacle. He scooted over and tossed his arm around her waist.

“Harker, I told you. We’re not having sex tonight.”

“I must not be doing something right if you think this is sex.” He pulled her against his body.

“This is a prelude to sex and we both know it.” She squirmed to get away, making his dick harden at the feel of her soft ass pushing against him. “See. If this isn’t you trying to have sex than what’s that?”

“That’s your fault.” He rolled his hips, pushing his dick against her softness. “I’m always like this around you.” He kissed her ear. “Only for you.” It was true. He didn’t want anyone but her.

“Well, that’s too bad for you tonight.” She elbowed him in the gut. “Get off me.”

“Ouch.” He tightened his hold on her. “I’m not on you. If I were, you’d know because my dick would be buried inside you.”

“You’re on me enough.” She elbowed him again. “Move.”

“Damn, that hurts.” He let go of her and rolled to his back. Her elbow was pointy.

“Good. I told you. No sex.”

“Come on. I can’t believe you’re still mad at me.”

“Still mad at you?” She sat up. “It’s been what? An hour since you—”

“Since I what?” He sat up. “Tried to help you? Because that’s all I did.” He touched her cheek. “I don’t like you working so much.”

“Yeah, I was thinking about that.” She pushed his hand away. “It sure is convenient that this bothered you so much that you had to do something about it when you could also win a point.”

“I saw an opportunity to take care of two situations at the same time.” It was the smart thing to do, but he was pretty sure she didn’t see it that way.

“You saw an opportunity to win another point. That’s the only reason you hired Mac now.”

“That’s not true.”

“I don’t believe you.”

“You should because it’s the truth.” Fuck, she was annoying sometimes.

“I will if you forfeit the point.”

“So that’s it.” He shook his head. “I can’t believe you’d pretend to be upset just to win this game.”

“I’m not pretending.”

“You weren’t this upset earlier in the kitchen.”

“Because I fell for your line about wanting to spend time with me.”

“That’s not a line.” Now, he was pissed. “If anyone should be pissed, it’s me. Hiring Mac will be a huge help to you, but do you appreciate it? No. Instead you’re angry and withholding sex.” He almost brought up that refusing to fuck him did break their contract, but that was one of the safety measures that he’d only use if the deal blew up.
