Logan sat in the chair across from Eve’s bed. After three days she’d left her door unlocked, and he hadn’t been able to resist a peek at her. When he had entered, she opened her eyes and gave him a sleepy smile and then drifted back to sleep. But not too deeply, he suspected.

She had actually goaded him into sparring with her in her impressive home gym. While he was pretty agile, she moved fast and with a sharp precision that bespoke years of training. Logan was confident if he dove at the bed, she’d probably have him pinned before the blankets even settled back into place.

Now that he thought about it, that didn’t sound like such a bad idea. He could all too easily imagine peeling the sheet down to reveal one luscious inch of her after another. Her bare shoulders peeked out from the top of the sheet, and his cock twitched at the thought of her sleeping naked.

In three days he hadn’t made a single move to finish what he’d started the first night. He wasn’t staying much longer, couldn’t risk leading Dominic here. And as much as his body craved her, somehow his conscience temporarily overrode his lust. There was much to settle with his brother before he could even hope to satisfy his growing need to drown in the woman in the bed opposite him.

If she had at least initiated something, had given him any indication that whatever he could offer her now was fine, he’d already be in bed with her. But she hadn’t. In fact, she went out of her way not to touch him whenever possible. He wondered if it had to do with the call from her friend his first night in the house.

Eve stirred under the covers. Logan took one more minute before she woke to study the beautiful face relaxed in sleep. He wanted to kiss the soft splash of freckles across her nose, then her cheeks and her mouth.

Her brilliant blue eyes opened. A dreamy grin curved her lips.

His heart kicked up at the sexy, vulnerable picture she made lying there, and he dug his fingers into the chair to keep himself in place.

“How long have you been sitting there?”

“An hour.”

The sheet slipped lower when she lifted her arms over her head in a feline stretch. He ran his gaze over the smooth flesh to the top of one breast. His new pants grew tight across the seam of his zipper.

“How’s the research coming?” She propped herself up on her elbows.

“Not so good,” he lied. At this point the less she knew about his clan the safer she was. Once things were settled he could tell her without fear that her freeing him would bring her pain.

“How long have you been a vampire?”

Eve laughed. “I thought we covered that.”

“No, you told me a woman never divulges that information. That’s not an actual answer.”

“Sure it is.”

“Women who will forever look to be in their twenties don’t get the same liberties.
