blush. “Of course, you have work to do as well.” Forgive me, mon amour.
Her eyes softened. Silly wolf, there’s nothing to forgive, especially when the request comes from your desire to be with me. I prefer to not be apart as well, but eventually we do need to rejoin the world.
He brushed his fingers along her cheek before turning to the bedroom to change for the meeting. Minutes later he emerged in a tailored black silk suit, crisp white shirt and royal blue tie. He was HOT! Man, she loved a man in a suit.
She bit her lower lip as she looked him slowly up and down before she finally met his eyes. He let out a low, sexy growl. “Keep looking at me like that and I’ll never get to the meeting.”
She gave him a saucy grin and chewed on her fingertip as her eyes and her thoughts heated. She was imagining peeling the suit off him slowly as she licked and nibbled the exposed flesh being revealed.
He moved so fast she didn’t see him take a step. Suddenly he was right in front of her wrapping his strong arms around her and yanking her into his hard body as he buried his face in her hair.
The suddenness of his reaction knocked the breath right out of her. “Cade!”
“I can’t think straight when you fantasize like that! Wicked woman, sending me to a meeting hard as a rock, you did that on purpose. You’re killing me here.”
She ran her fingertip down his chest provocatively, playfully. “Well, then I guess you’ll hurry back as quickly as you can.”
He let out a frustrated groan and took possession of her mouth, plunging his tongue deep, savoring her for a few seconds before he had to tear himself away. “I expect you naked and in bed when I return.” A playful expression spread across his face and a wicked gleam shone in his eyes.
“Oh, I’ll be here, I’m just not sure I will be in the bed though.” She couldn’t help sending him an image of her wet and soapy in the shower.
He gave her a look promising retaliation when he returned and walked out the door.
Shortly after Cade left to meet Stefan, Anna heard a knock on her door. She thought Cade was back and had forgotten his keycard.
He wasn’t.
Tim stood in the door frame. Before she could slam the door in his face he blocked it with his foot and pushed his way in.
Taken by surprise, she stumbled back and fell into one of the dining room chairs.
“What are you doing here?” she demanded. “You’re not allowed to come near me. Get out!” Her pointed finger jabbed toward the door as she stood again.
Tim shrugged. “I need to talk to you.”
“You’ve got to be kidding me!” Her eyes were blazing and had gone dark. Tim was too stupid to notice. “You are completely insane.”
He acted as if he hadn’t heard a word she’d said. “Anna, I was wrong. I miss you so much, and I want you back.”
She was speechless for a moment. She couldn’t believe what this idiot had said. Did he actually believe she would take him back? Oh, Hell to the NO!
He tried to grab her left hand. “Where did you get that ring? Did HE give you that, you slut!”
Anna burst out laughing, she wasn’t going to respond to the ring comment. “You don’t want me back. The only reason you’re here now is because you’ve seen me with another man. A very handsome man. And you can’t stand the idea I’m with someone other than you. Cade’s good looks and amazing body make you look like a container of leftover food left to rot at the back of my refrigerator, growing slimy and covered in ugly mold. Not only is he major eye candy, but he’s a wonderful man, something you’ll never be.” She leaned closer to Tim and wrinkled her nose. “You even smell like rotten food. Show a modicum of pride and shower once in a while.”
Anna’s laughing at him triggered something in Tim. He clinched his fists and turning a unique shade of red. In a haze of rage, he stumbled to the door and flipped the security lock.
Anna started to panic, she was
