Anastasia

“Would you like me to sing you a lullaby?” Sam asked.

That was unexpected and a little offensive. Did he think of her as a kid?

He wasn’t that much older than her, and even if he was, that still shouldn’t have mattered.

Maybe what he had in mind was one of those naughty lullabies?

Ana should be so lucky. Unless she initiated, and not just by hinting at her interest, he wasn’t going to do anything with her.

“Do you know any?”

“I know an old Scottish one that my mother used to sing to me. Do you want to hear it?”

So it wasn’t a fun one for sure.

“Yes, please.”

“I hope that I remember all the words.”

“If it’s in Gaelic, you can make them up, and I wouldn’t know.”

As he started singing softly, Ana closed her eyes and concentrated on his voice.

It was lovely, deep and smooth, and the Scottish accent was just as delicious as the man himself.

If only he wasn’t such a damn gentleman.

She’d already made the first move by turning toward him and putting her hand on his shoulder, but it hadn’t been enough. In fact, the move had seemed to irritate him even more.

Should she just come out and say it?

Make love to me, Sam.

Damn, why was it so hard?

She was in bed with the hottest guy she’d ever met, and she was supposed to sleep?

Not if she could help it.

She’d hoped that his offer to help her translate the voices had been a ploy to get her in his bed, but apparently, he’d meant it.

It was just her damn bad luck.

For most of her adult life, Ana had been pretty ambivalent about sex. She hadn’t been obsessed with guys or in a rush to lose her virginity, holding out until the ripe age of twenty-three. Marvin had been her first boyfriend, and sex with him had been okay, but it hadn’t been earth-shattering by any means.

She’d had more fun with her own fingers than she’d ever had with him.

And now that she’d finally met a man who stirred her blood and awakened her sleepy lady bits, he was too damn honorable to take advantage of her, and she was too shy to tell him that she was more than okay with that.

Ana wanted Sam with every fiber of her being, but was it enough to overcome her shyness and make a bold move?

It’d better be.

As the song ended, she scooted closer and put her hand on his chest. “That was lovely. Thank you.”

He sucked in a breath. “What are you doing?”

“Getting warm.”

Were his eyes glowing? Or was the light from the bathroom somehow reflecting off the white wall and shining at his eyes?

Maybe he was wearing contacts?

“I can get you a sweater.”

She shook her head. “Your eyes are glowing.”

“They are not. It’s the contacts.” He turned away from her. “I’ll get you the sweater.”

“Sam.” She put her hand on his arm to stop him.

“What?”

“I don’t want a damn sweater.” She smoothed her hand down his chest.

He put his hand over hers.
