naked.
“No.”
    “Don’t worry, darling. I don’t do
comatose women.”
    Kira looked aghast.
    Alessandro’s expression softened
when he saw her reaction. “Relax. I’m just kidding. About you being comatose.
We did not have sexual intercourse if that’s what you are worrying about. You
can breathe now.” He placed his toothbrush between his lips and turned the
motor on. She caught his eyes sliding down her body as if he knew what was
underneath the sheet and her nightie.
    Kira didn’t realize she was
holding her breath but exhaled sharply. She also didn’t realize how much she wanted
a part of her in between his lips instead of the toothbrush.
    Stop it, Kira! Get your mind out
of there. He’s…Did he say, Alessandro Romano? That name. That name sounds so
familiar. Where
did she hear it from?
    Oh, God!
    Alessandro Romano!
    One of the billionaires bidding
for the facility in Orlando!
    She’d spent so much time
researching Alessandro’s background that she felt she knew a lot about him. At
age thirty-five, he was one of the youngest self-made billionaires. He was also
one of the most generous philanthropists, giving away more of his income than
any other wealthy tycoon. But he also had a mysterious side. And…he looked so
much different from the few photos she found of him on the web. For instance,
he always wore his trademark shades in public.
    She just got the new assignment
from her employer, Babs Insider Magazine , to cover the story that was
supposed to be titled “The Bidding War Begins! Let the Best Man Win.” Their
other reporter got sick and couldn’t make the trip.
    She held her head again at that
thought. God, she would never have another drink so long as she lived and that
would suit her just fine.
    “Seemed like you had a bit too
much to drink, my dear. After we…”
    “After we what?” Kira’s heart
pounded hard and fast in her chest now. She thought she was going to have a
panic attack. This could not be happening. No way could this be happening. She
was usually careful. She didn’t do exciting things…like this. This was all so
out of character for her. Her sister was the fun one. Kandy’s motto had always
been “life is short, so live it up!”
    Just then her head started to
throb again. So did her inner thighs. How could she hold a proper conversation
when he was…dripping with sexual eroticism?
    “Relax, Kira! We just got
married,” he said as he returned to brushing his teeth as if he said nothing
out of the ordinary.
     “We just got what ?”
    Kira felt her heart stop.
     
     
     
     
    2.
     
    “We got married last night. You
don’t remember, my dear?” He turned to go into the bathroom to finish brushing
his teeth then she heard him rinsing out his mouth. He returned wiping his face
with a white face cloth.
    Kira jumped out of the bed with
the sheets still wrapped around her. She paced as if she were locked up in an
insane asylum. She might have well been for what she’d just done.
    “We got m-m-married?”
    She just got married to
Alessandro Valentino Romano, the mysterious billionaire who’d been linked to
more women than a pool party at the Playboy Mansion?
    Kira’s heart raced. She could not
believe what her ears had just heard.
    “You really don’t remember the
conversation we had last night?”
    “No!” Kira panicked. “No! I
don’t! W-what happened?”
    “Well, we both got to talking. I
found out you were stalking me for your story and you didn’t know who I was at
the time but you took a liking to me.”
    “What?” Kira got up and stumbled
to the plush sofa by the fireplace in the suite—she didn’t feel like having
this conversation while she sat up in bed. The room was certainly a grand suite
if she’d ever seen one. It was like a presidential suite.
    Alessandro sighed. He then took
off his towel and began to dress.
    Kira’s jaw dropped.
    He was naked!
    He was naked in front of her like
it didn’t mean anything. And he was…truly blessed with
