Chapter Four

As Amanda switched on the lamp on the nightstand, Christian took a quick glance around her spacious master bedroom. He smiled to himself, thinking the furnishings and decor reflected just how soft and feminine Amanda was beneath that no-nonsense facade she presented at work.

He liked what he saw. A whole lot. A cream-and-lavender floral comforter and ruffled pillows covered her mattress, and matching curtains framed the windows. The bed frame was a rich antique iron, with bars and scroll accents. The wallpaper in the room was textured, and the dresser and armoire were whitewashed and elegant in design.

As he continued to scan the room, a framed picture on the wall of a man, woman and child caught his attention. It was an older photograph, depicting a much younger version of Douglas Creighton, a woman he assumed was Amanda’s mother and a little girl of about ten who possessed the same features as the beautiful woman Amanda had become. It was a family portrait, obviously taken long ago, and it made him realize how little he really knew about Amanda outside the office, other than the fact that she was an only child.

He wanted to know more. About her family. Her past. Her childhood. And even what she saw for herself when she contemplated her future. That notion startled him, considering how intimate and personal his own thoughts had become when it came to Amanda. It also made him realize how deeply he was into her, despite all the potential complications of getting involved with the boss’s daughter. Yet, even knowing what was at stake, he couldn’t bring himself to turn around and walk away from her, and this night together.

Then his troubling thoughts scattered as she strolled back toward him, a sultry smile on her lips, her gaze bright with seductive intent. He was helpless to resist this sweet, sexy woman who’d sent him such a tantalizing Secret Santa gift. A woman who clearly wanted him as much as he ached for her.

Stopping in front of him, she reached for his tie and pulled it free of its knot. “I’m going to be needing this in just a few minutes,” she murmured huskily and tossed the long scrap of material onto the bed behind him for safekeeping. Then she tugged the hem of his shirt from his pants and pulled it over his head and off.

She ran her hands over his chest, sighing appreciatively as she slowly skimmed her palms downward, touching and caressing her way to the waistband of his jeans. But before she could reach the snap securing his pants, he playfully pushed her hands aside, knowing one firm stroke of her fingers could easily set him off, and that would be the end for him.

“Not just yet,” he said and hooked his own fingers into her pajama bottoms. He pushed them down, over the curve of her hips, along her slender thighs, then let the soft cotton pants drop to her ankles.

She tried to step out of the bottoms, but the material got caught around her feet and she laughed a bit self-consciously.
