Оглавление‘You’ll get your money,’ Emma said.
‘We’ll see.’ Zarios smiled. ‘Till I do, you will be my fiancée. You will move in to my home so that I can take care of you—or rather deal with the press and the questions…’
‘We won’t…’ Emma flushed. ‘I mean, there’ll be no…’
‘I don’t understand what you are saying…’ He flashed her an innocent smile.
‘Oh, I think you do. I want to make it clear, very clear, that we won’t be sharing a bed.’
His mouth was mere inches from hers. Her mind was quailing, but her treacherous body flared in instant recall of their one dizzy time together.
‘Do you want me to kiss you?’
Yes.
She didn’t say it, but the word snapped like a twig between them.
She wanted to forget, to escape…for just one moment. To forget this living hell and taste the heaven she had once witnessed, to accept the temporary relief his mouth would surely provide.
To be held instead of holding up.
He kissed her then, his mouth crushing hers. And she was kissing him back with all her might, pressing her body into his as if she wanted to climb inside him, to escape, revelling in the freedom that his touch, his kiss, his being somehow brought her. Oh, she was lost, lost, lost—and it was wonderful. She was back in oblivion and it tasted divine.
