CHAPTER 17
EILIDH
STILL THAT NIGHT â ALONE AND SCARED
As the lift closed, I gave Miki a little wave and blew him a kiss. God, the man was gorgeous and just one glance from him had my pussy clenching in anticipation.
It was ridiculous how my body craved him. And not just my body, my mind, too. He really was the sexiest man Iâd ever encountered, and my fingers had itched to touch him all night. How the heck Iâd kept my hands to myself Iâd never know. It was definitely a testament to a strength of will I hadnât realised I had.
When heâd asked me to stay the night, Iâd almost agreed, but it was late. Jumping his bones would have been fantastic, but I forced myself to behave and leave. It was one of the hardest things Iâd ever done and that was annoying as hell and bloody ridiculous.
The man had me in the palm of his hand, and I wasnât sure how I felt about that. Despite all he told me, he was holding some very important information back. And that was the real problem. Until I knew everything about him, he couldnât be truly trusted.
Not only that, but when I found out the gory details of his life, some of which I already suspected, I didnât know how I would deal with it. As a police officer, if I learned about his criminal activities, I was duty bound to investigate them and bring him to justice. Or at the very least, report him to someone else. And yet, every bone in my body screamed against that. The very idea of asking Miki for help and then betraying him made me sick to the stomach.
As I walked to my car, I felt like I could cry.
Geez, get a grip, girl! I chided myself, feeling like a bloody fool.
Mr Sexy Lips was trouble; I needed to be careful about how far I took things and just how much of a hold he had on me. If I didnât watch out, he could very well break my heart.
Although, the way heâd looked at me tonight, I could tell he was struggling to keep his hands to himself as well. Perhaps he was having the same concerns as I was.
We came from two opposite worlds and although we might bridge the gap for a while; it wasnât something we could do permanently. Not unless one of us changed.
Iâd tried to be businesslike tonight for that very reason, but my attempts at maintaining a distance between us werenât very successful.
Shit, I really shouldnât have let him kiss me and I definitely shouldnât have kissed him back, or flirted, or blew him a kiss, or any of that.
This was a dangerous game I was playing, but I needed help with my mission. Nevertheless, my heart or my career, or both, were at stake. It was a leap of faith to believe Miki was someone I could trust with the information Iâd supplied tonight and the information I would send when I got home.
