TWO HOURS LATER Lacey was going out of her mind in a private back room at the sex club.

Restless, edgy and needing Damon so badly it hurt, she tried to tell herself this was all the effects of whatever drug had been put in her drink and that Damon was only looking out for her by not touching her. But every wisp of air blowing in from an antiquated air conditioner tickled her skin like a lover wielding a teasing feather.Her whereabouts were hazy. The passage of time even hazier. But her actual, physical senses were acute and she knew what was going on. Damon thought Nick Castine was following them. He’d carried her back into the club, back to some private hotel room available for customers of the place, so that he could avoid Castine.

Not for his benefit, she knew. But for hers.

Which was all well and good if Damon had at least put this bonus private time to good use. The room was a tacky, Gothic affair complete with red walls and silk sheets, which she now lay on, plagued by too much lust. But Damon hadn’t touched her other than to feel her forehead and to keep her as cool as possible.

Didn’t he know there was only one way to stop her from burning up inside? Wave after wave of unanswered hunger squeezed her womb, making it impossible to be still. Not even her most uptight impulses were enough to keep her from writhing around the bed like a cat in heat.

After the first hour and a half in the room with Damon, he had imported some doctor friend who was apparently a fellow Coastie. The guy—Tejal Desai, who didn’t sound the least bit foreign with his Brooklyn accent—had taken her vitals and given her a cursory exam.

She understood she’d been given a drug and that Damon wanted to be sure she didn’t succumb to any bad side effects, but the raging need in her blood was the side effect that felt the most dire.

That damn piece of lucky quartz crystal she’d been carrying around tonight sure hadn’t done its job.

“I want to go home if you’re not going to touch me,” she announced, watching Damon’s back as he spoke in hushed tones with the doctor who’d politely insisted she call him by his first name.

“You can ride with me,” Tejal said to Damon, loud enough for her to hear. “I’m heading back to the San Juan Sector, so I can take you to her hotel. We can go out the back.”

“We’re going to wait for Enrique, Doc. I don’t want to involve you any more than I have to. Enrique will give us a lift out of here and I’ll pick up my car tomorrow.”

Lacey twisted in the sheets, wishing they could jump in Tejal’s car and leave. She wanted to be in her hotel room with Damon, seducing him into taking the edge off this horrendous drug that made her feel like a sex-crazed porn star in some low-budget flick.
