“I thought I’d never see you again.” I struggle for any answer to explain why I fell into bed with him so easily.

“Aye, we had that in common.” He lowers his mouth to mine but doesn’t kiss me.

Just hovers with a smile. His musky cologne reminds me of us tangled in my sheets, writhing together.

My body shudders in his arms. He’s a wall of powerful muscle pressed against me. The memory of my orgasm flashes through my mind and my clit throbs.

“But you changed the game, sparkles.”

“How?” I push out of my burning lungs.

“Your virginity bled all over my cock.”

Jesus fricking Christ. “That’s what this is about?”

“That… Is everything to me. That made you mine.”

“But you had no intention of ever seeing me again.”

“That’s why I’ve been in hell for the last seven days.” He lets me go and faces the long wall of books. “Clearly owning a woman whose life’s work is to take down men like me slowed my roll.”

“Slowed…”

“Well, stopped. It all happened so fast. But now that I’m in town for a while and you’re my custodian…” He grins.

“Nothing’s changed. You’re still a crime lord and—”

“Don’t confuse me with my brother. He’s the boss. The lord, whatever.” Eoghan crosses his arms. “I’m just the clever consigliere. I make deals. And not life and death ones like my other brother.”

My hands fly up, and I’m tempted to start humming the theme song to Friends so I don’t hear anymore vomit confessions that I’ll have to do something about. “I don’t want to know anything more about your family. Your brother, Cormac, committed crimes in my city, and Daniel forced me to dismiss them.”

“And I’m grateful you listened to him.”

“You set my career back. And now,” I say, pointing to the files. “I need to get on this Borgia case and win it to get the promotion I want.”

“Who’s been going up against Borgia’s one-thousand-dollar-an-hour Cadillac attorneys?”

“Daniel.”

“Alone?”

I nod.

“Eejit.”

I snicker.

“You know the Irish slang for fucking moron?”

“More we have in common.” I scoff a laugh. “Prosecutors win RICO cases all the time.”

“Not against people like the Borgias.” Eoghan’s eyes blaze to mine again. “Like I said, take your clothes off. Let me make you mindless a few times.”

All I could think is if Daniel found out I slept with a criminal…

“Is this some kind of entrapment?” I step back. “I give myself to you and you go running—”

The tie twists in his hands again. “I already had that sweet cunt around my cock.”
