Chapter 10

RaeAnne's pulse rocketed out of control as Roman continued to tug on her arm, bringing her closer and closer to his stretched-out body. If she didn't stop him, she'd end up spread on top of him like new-fallen snow.

"Well?"

"I didn't offer," she declared, resisting his pull.

"I distinctly remember—"

"It was a bet. One I knew I'd win."

"Did you really?"

"Of course I did. And so did you."

His brow went up and with a deliberate movement he withdrew the paper from his pocket. "As a matter of fact, there are a few disputable names on this list."

"Don't even think—"

"This one, for instance." Without letting her arm go, he maneuvered the paper around so she could see it. "Pat Campbell. Could be a woman."

"Oh, sure."

"And here." He moved his fingers down the list. "Taylor Brooks. Or how about Caroll Smith?"

"You're grasping at straws, Roman."

"I don't think so."

In an instant the paper had disappeared into his pocket and his other hand was gripping her waist. A jolt of heat ripped through her. Suddenly her body was pressing into his. Her breasts sang with pleasure, her hips vibrated with delicious anticipation as they settled over his.

He let go of her arm and grasped her other side, his thumb resting perilously close to her breast.

"I say I won that bet."

Gazing into her eyes, he just held her there above him, not doing the things with his hands they both knew he could. Her body yearned to feel them slide slowly over her, setting off sparks of ecstasy as they touched sensitive, hidden places.

She licked her dry lips. "There's no way of knowing, is there?"

"Not until we talk to them. You still haven't answered my question."

Her brain was totally paralyzed, trapped by his commanding presence under her as surely as her body was held captive by his powerful hands. "What question?"

"You keep saying you aren't going to sleep with me. If that's true, why did you offer me a night in your bed?"

At the juncture of their thighs, she felt his excitement grow. Her legs turned to jelly, gradually slipping down the outside of his to rest on the smooth, cool rock.

"This isn't fair," she protested weakly. His arousal pressed into her, thick and hard, hopelessly tantalizing. And he knew damned well this was one of her favorite positions.

"All's fair in love and war," he murmured.

"This isn't love," she returned. "This is sex."

He was silent for a moment, his Adam's apple bobbing in his throat. "I offered you love. You turned me down."

"It wouldn't work."

"But this does." He held her hips firmly and ground them in a circle over him. Leaving no doubt what he meant. "Give me now, RaeAnne. We can figure out the future later. But right now I'll die if I don't have you."

He raised up to capture her lips and she thought surely she would tremble into tiny pieces. Goose bumps ripped over her as he lifted her T-shirt up and off, then rolled her to her back and gently laid her on the soft cotton.
