Chapter 10
It took Annika a good five minutes plastered against the passenger side door to quiet her breathing and get control of her overloaded senses. It didn’t help that Sam was humming the tune to Hot Stuff as he expertly met the twists and turns of the country road. The closer they got to town, and to her apartment, the more her excitement turned to dread. A wave of emotion, close to panic, shook her as she envisioned what was to come. Oh God, why had she done this? Gone out tonight, knowing that Sam would be there? Worn this outrageous “come and get it” outfit? Looking like the tease they all thought she was? And with Sam, of all people. And now he’d know. Know what she was really like.
By the time he drove into the basement of the apartment complex and parked the car, Annika had managed to stifle her panic and make her decision.
“Sam?”
“Yes, Annika.”
“I… I can’t do this. Please understand. I really cannot do this.”
“Annika? Be quiet.”
His soft order sent a wave of heat through her so strong it shocked her into silence. Before she could protest, he was at her door, helping her out. When they got to the landing outside her apartment, he held out his hand.
“Your key?”
She shook her head. “No, Sam. I can’t. You don’t understand.”
Sam smiled at her and backed her up against the door. Placing his hands on either side of her head, he murmured, “What don’t I understand, Annika? How much I want to kiss you? And how much you want me to?”
He nuzzled against her neck, gently nipping at the sensitive skin. She couldn’t hold back the tiny whimper that rose in her throat. Oh God. He needed to stop. Her legs were starting to shake and her skin felt hot. He moved in and began nipping lower, closer to the top of her breasts. They were barely contained in the scanty top. Oh god, why had she worn this? Something so provocative? So easy for him to push down and free her breasts.
His voice was low, husky.
“Are you trying to tell me I’m wrong? That the Ice Princess isn’t meltable? That you don’t want me to do this to you? With you? “
She put her hand on his chest and tried to push him away but he was too strong, too big. He loomed over her, swamping her with his strength.
Struggling against him, she made her voice as firm as she could. “No, you’re wrong… or… you’re not wrong. I… I don’t know what you’re saying! All I know is that I don’t want you to do this.”
Sam’s smile widened. “You better tell that to these.”
He brushed his fingertips across her breasts pausing to tweak each of the hard taut tips that were pressing against the lacy material.
Annika startled at the wave of fire that flooded her at his slight touch.
She begged him, “Oh God. Sam. Please. Don’t. You don’t understand. You don’t know what I am like.
