The patter of running water woke her, and she found herself alone in the bed, swaddled in the plush comforter. She blamed it on that muddled place between asleep and awake when the shower cut off and she was unable to block the image of water beads glistening down silky, chiseled muscle.

She groaned with irritation and rubbed her eyes.

Dangerous!

He’d held her close all night, languidly rubbing her back till she’d fallen asleep again. And when she’d stirred, feeling the grips of another nightmare, he’d resumed lightly trailing his fingers along her spine, murmuring, “Shh. I’ve got you.”

Gravely, she tried to remind herself of all the reasons she should hate him—did hate him. He was arrogant, controlling, unequivocally insensitive, last night being the exception. He was crude and ruthless. Rude and entitled. Not to mention threatening her life was his favorite pastime.

Now she could add thief to the list, because she feared he’d just stolen a chunk of her heart.

He emerged from the bathroom with nothing but a white towel wrapping his waist. Just as she’d envisioned, droplets of water gleamed off the hard plains of his torso. As he crossed the room, he flashed her a movie-star grin. “Morning.”

Someone’s in a good mood.

Then he disappeared into the walk-in closet, leaving the door open. She mourned the loss of the sight of him.

She bit her lip. So screwed!

Scolding herself, she slipped out of bed. On her way to wash up, she halted as she noticed all the new clothes that now filled the closet. One side was packed with suits, the other lined with gorgeous dresses. She had no doubt the drawers were filled with the finest lingerie.

Knox’s back was to her. Strong brawny shoulders tapered to a lean waist. His muscles rippled and stretched as he rifled through his options. With every twitch in his thick bicep, she seemed more transfixed, unable to look away.

As she studied him, a tempest of white-hot desire fluttered through her. She felt guilty over stealing this glimpse, thinking, Could I enjoy his body? Would it be so bad to give in? It’s supposedly my nature, after all.

As if he’d timed it, he dropped the towel.

She hissed in a breath, spun from the sight of his glorious body, and then rushed into the bathroom.

She thought she heard a devilish chuckle before she closed the door.

Bastard.

After showering—water turned to cold for obvious reasons—she cautiously reentered the bedroom and found it was empty. From the expansive wardrobe, she chose the most modest outfit she could find, which just so happened to be the little black dress she had tried on the day before. It was as if Knox had ordered the most revealing clothes ever made by human hands. The undergarments were even worse: drawers full of thongs and matching bras, garters and stockings.

In her haste to pack, she had grabbed a few of her functional cotton undergarments, but she suspected Knox had managed to do away with them, because they were nowhere to be found. She had no choice but to don one of the lacy numbers he’d picked out for her.
