I am paralyzed by his words.

“Take. Off. Your. Clothes.”

Clayton drops the files on the floor and leans back in his chair. He picks up the glass of Scotch from the table next to him and continues to watch me aloofly.

This is Clayton, I tell myself. He’s mad. Annoyed. Maybe he has a right to be, maybe not. But I know he won’t hurt me. It’s his way of controlling me. He’s just trying to control me.

“I don’t know if this is a good idea,” I tell him.

“Why wouldn’t it be?” he asks curiously.

“Because it’s not safe,” I tell him. “You’re angry at me—”

“Not angry, baby,” Clayton takes a sip of his drink. “Annoyed.”

I remain silent.

“That you would ruin our evening with that irrational insecurity of yours,” he says harshly.

My back straightens.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Do you think I didn’t see you? When Amelia and I were speaking. Back by the restrooms.”

I want to die. He saw me spying. I burn from the shame of it.

“I wasn’t spying—” Oh shit. Did I just say that out loud?

“I didn’t say you were.”

Crap. I think I’m starting to hyperventilate.

“Do you have anything to say?” he asks curiously.

It comes down to me having trust issues with him. Right or wrong, I guess I do. And the she-devil was in his arms. I don’t know why or how or what for, but she was fawning all over him. So I just went there.

However, I say truthfully, “I don’t appreciate the fact that every time I turn around I see that bitch draped in your arms.”

Score one for Sophie.

Clayton’s eyes widen at my words.

I go on bravely.

“I don’t think you would appreciate finding me in Jerry’s arms. In fact, I know from experience that you didn’t and I would venture to guess that if you found me like that again you’d react a lot more harshly than I did. So in the future I expect to receive the same courtesy from you,” I tell him bluntly, feeling empowered by my words and honesty.

I wait for him to speak.

“Fair enough,” he says slowly, as if testing out the words or the fact that he is actually agreeing to what I said.

I’m happy he doesn’t put up a fight or argue with me over what I saw or how I felt. We stare at one another.

So what now?

“Now take off your clothes.”

Shit. I let out the breath I was holding and focus on how handsome his face and body look lit up like that in the firelight.

There’s still an unspoken current of anger in the air between us. Everything isn’t all better now.

Yet.

But I listen and slowly start to undress. I’m acutely aware of Clayton’s eyes on my body, of the way they sweep over me, almost like he’s touching me, worshipping me. I tremble in anticipation and am burning with desire when the last piece of clothing is off my body.

“Everything.” Clayton’s voice is raspy with hunger.

He’s referring to the pink lace panties I’ve chosen to keep on.
