“Wow. Consequence threat management must really pay well.”

Quinn had used finger quotes to throw his own words back at him while she looked around. Ward’s home was in a renovated warehouse—high ceilings, exposed brick, original hardwood. The huge windows provided a picture perfect view of the city skyline and told her the place must have cost a small fortune. Of course, the new Mercedes he’d been driving should have been her first clue.

He’d been mostly silent, hot looks since he’d picked her up and noticed she hadn’t worn the dress. Like now. Right now his eyes were telling her he had plans, plans that made her tremble and ache in anticipation, despite the jeans she’d decided on.

The corner of his mouth lifted. “You’d be surprised how many paranoid rich people are worried about being kidnapped for ransom.”

“Really? There’s a danger of that?”

He shrugged. “Some need it, some don’t. They insist anyway and I still charge them a shitload for peace of mind. There’s no one else who can deliver what my team and I can.”

She couldn’t miss the thread of pride in his voice. Or the arrogance that came right along with it. She had a feeling it was justified.

“How do you get into something like that?”

His gaze narrowed on her. “I’m trained to break into impenetrable places and neutralize threats. Being a trained killer doesn’t hurt either. Seemed a good fit.”

Whew. He threw the violent words around as casually as if he were talking about the weather. Not for the first time she wondered what the hell she was doing here. With him. It was so unlike her. She didn’t do this. She didn’t sleep with a guy she’d only just met. She didn’t go to their house. She didn’t tremble in anticipation of him touching her. She didn’t want it like a drug, ache for it, except…something about him called to her, awakened something inside her. Maybe it was the wounded beast thing he had going on. Rough, rugged, savage, but hurting, and not just his injuries. She could see it in his eyes every time he looked at her and that made her ache too.

Whatever it was between them, Quinn knew it wasn’t heading into permanent territory. She was an anomaly. No big mystery there. She’d somehow made it through the impenetrable barrier he shielded himself with and he’d trusted her. With himself. And when that was over? Yeah, they probably would be too.

She sighed. There was nothing wrong with enjoying hot, mind-blowing sex while she could, was there? With Mr. Body of a God? Consenting adults slept together for a whole lot less than that every day. She could too, right? In fact, she probably needed to maximize her time to carry her through her next dry spell because sure as hell it was probably going to be her longest one yet. She had a feeling that after Ward? Yeah, she might just be ruined for all future guys.

Quinn followed him through into a spacious kitchen.
