He was fast, damn it, Maddy thought, as he flipped her over onto her stomach on the bed, covering her, holding her down. No matter how she struggled, he had her trapped, and she wanted to scream in frustration. It had been so hard to fight the drugging lassitude of his mouth on hers when she’d been thinking about it all day. But she had fought, refusing to give in to the sudden, carnal nature she’d never known she possessed, and with anyone else she would have managed to cripple him long enough to escape.

But she wouldn’t have kissed any other man, she thought. He was on top of her, holding her down, but she didn’t want to think about that, think about the various parts of his strong, hard body and what was pressing where. He moved his head down, so that his voice was at her ear. “Dirty tricks, my little liar. You’re just damned lucky I’ve already seen you in action. If you’d connected you’d be very sorry.”

“I’d be gone,” she said, her voice muffled against the pillow.

“No, you wouldn’t,” he said flatly. “And I wouldn’t be in a very forgiving mood. Now why don’t you tell me who you really are?”

His breath was soft, damp against her ear, and she wanted that soft damp breath in her mouth. She was just as glad she was lying on her stomach on the bed, because everything in the front of her wanted to be touched—her breasts, her stomach, between her legs. Pressing against the mattress was at least some relief. She tried to lift her head to look at him, but it was too difficult, so she dropped it back down again, closing her eyes. “I told you who I am. Mary Greaves, a maidservant.”

“And I’m Benjamin Disraeli.”

“No, you’re Luca,” she shot back, then realized that wasn’t the wisest move on her part. She had no idea what that name meant, only that it was secret, and secrets were dangerous.

“You heard that, did you?” He sounded unconcerned. “So why don’t you return the favor and tell me your real name?”

“Mary Greaves,” she said between clenched teeth.

“You know you’re very frustrating, don’t you?” Before she realized what he was doing he’d turned her beneath him once more, and he was covering her, his much larger body stretched over hers. “I don’t like to be frustrated.”

His hips were against hers, and she knew what she felt, knew what that hard ridge of flesh was. “Are you going to rape me?” she demanded in a furious voice. “Are you going to use your fantasy about who I am as an excuse to assault me?”

“No,” he said, and there was a light in his dark eyes. From the tone of his voice it sounded like a ridiculous accusation, but she was still lying pinned beneath him, and he was most definitely aroused.

“Then let me go.”

“Tell me who you are.”

“Mary Greaves.”

“Look at me, Mary Greaves.” His voice didn’t allow for disobedience, and she glared up at him.
