Her body tingled. “Pretending to be your lover,” Gretchen said breathlessly.

“Yes.”

She felt deliciously hot all over. The thought of his mouth on hers made her knees weak. He wanted pretense. She wanted him, and was only just realizing it. All sorts of shocking, exciting images formed in her mind. “I have no idea how someone in a harem behaves,” she said.

“Nor have I,” he said with a touch of amusement. “We will have to learn together.”

Some of the uncertainty left her expression.

“At least your virtue would be completely safe with me.” He hoped. He didn’t dare tell her what her touch did to him.

“How far would this pretense have to go, exactly?” she wondered aloud.

“It would have to be convincing,” he said.

She lowered her eyes demurely. “You’d kiss me and…so forth?”

He lifted an eyebrow. “Yes. Especially and…so forth.”

“Nobody tops Diana Palmer…I love her stories.”
