Chapter 3

Charles paced the confines of his office, berating himself for acting so foolishly last night. Fiona was a good woman, a kind soul and she didn’t deserve the lust that had come over him last night. He should have kept his hands off of her.

But good grief, she’d been so beautiful. And the intense desire in her eyes…it had made him lose control. Which was more than half the problem. He never lost control! He was always in control! He prided himself on his ability to control his world, to even manipulate things to his or his bank’s advantage! Oh, he knew he couldn’t manipulate world events, but when things happened, he took control and ensured that he profited.

Running a hand over the back of his neck, he tried to figure out where he’d gone wrong. Probably from the first moment she’d stepped out of his car and had fallen in love with his house. It was a good house, but he’d honestly never seen it through her eyes. She had shown him aspects of the old mansion that he hadn’t recognized before. And that had given him a glimpse into himself as well.

He had to make this right. She wouldn’t marry him, which was another part of the issue. Fiona was a free spirit, not one to tie herself down to one man. But he could damn well apologize for what he’d done.

Thinking back, something he hadn’t been able to stop himself from doing over the past several hours, he suddenly remembered that moment. That startling moment when she’d stiffened in his arms. He leaned over his desk, bracing his hands wide as he berated himself mentally. She’d been a virgin! Damn him! And he’d lost control! He’d been so overcome with lust for her slender body that he hadn’t even slowed down. He hadn’t made it good enough for her first time!

Walking out of his office, he snapped at his assistant, “Cancel my appointments this afternoon.”

He didn’t see the astonished look in her eyes as he walked briskly towards the elevators. Nor did he see the anger because his assistant preferred schedules and organization. She liked things to operate properly, the way they had been since she’d walked into this bank several years ago. Charles Henson was not acting normally, she thought. But she picked up the phone and started canceling his appointments. Again. She didn’t like it, but she also knew that her boss had his reasons. Which would probably be brilliant once he cared to share them with the rest of the world. She was continuously surprised by how that man’s mind worked.

Charles sped down highway ten, unconcerned with the speed limit or even the rude gestures other drivers gave him as he weaved through the traffic. He just knew he had to get to Fiona quickly and make things right. Or as right as he could, after he’d stolen her virginity.

Damn, he still couldn’t believe that someone as beautiful as Fiona, someone with as much energy, almost endless vitality, hadn’t had sex before last night.
