“I’ve succeeded at every damned thing I’ve put my mind to, Jenny,” Kabeer said as he ran his fingers through his thick, dark brown hair. “My sister is not a fool. There is no way she’d have agreed to let me do this if she did not think I could pull it off.”

“And when is someone going to ask for MY opinion when it comes to, you know, MY restaurant?!” Jenny was red in the face, her hands shaking as she reached for the glass of water an attendant had just brought up on a tray.

They were still on that upper deck, sitting on a white linen couch that faced the back of the boat. Kabeer had burst up onto the deck a few minutes earlier, his dark face flush, his green eyes sharp and focused . . . focused on her.

Oh, God, she had thought for a moment as he approached. She could smell it on him, his desire, his need, his want. And she could feel it in herself again too, like her body was choosing to respond immediately to his, like they were already in tune, in rhythm, in sync. She tried not to look down, and in truth she did not need to, because there was no doubt that he was ready to take what he wanted.

A part of her wanted to give in right then and there. Jump in, right? But just as the Sheikh drew near, Jenny felt the boat change direction. She looked towards the horizon, where she could see the glass and steel towers of Chicago shimmering in the sun. Sure enough, the boat was turning. They were heading back. The clock was ticking. Jenny needed to give Yasmeena her answer.

She already knew that she’d sign that offer sheet—she really had no choice. But she still couldn’t make complete sense of the Sheikh’s strange demand to be head chef. It couldn’t be just about the “experience,” could it? He was a billionaire! He could open ten restaurants in Paris, play around in the kitchens, and close them down if he got bored! But it couldn’t be just because of her either, she had decided. If Kabeer just wanted to sleep with her, wouldn’t it be easier for a man like that to NOT volunteer to work closely with her every day for months, maybe longer?! What was this man trying to do? What was he trying to get?

And so instead of listening to her body, Jenny tried to shut it up, close it down, turn it off. She walked past the Sheikh as he approached her with that look on his face, and she quickly sat on that white couch, crossing a leg over the other, folding her arms tightly over her breasts. We’re going to talk, she told herself. This is still a damned business meeting, as far as I’m concerned. Isn’t it?

So she had started to talk, but the tone was heated, passionate, tense and dramatic as their shared arousal colored every sentence, underlined every word, heightened every emotion.
