Austin didn't move to secure his win—not immediately. Business-like, he shut the suite's door, swiped his card on the inside reader and punched a code in.

Gina whirled to face him. Lifting a stern finger, she jabbed it in the direction of the door handle. "That better open for me."

"You've always been free to leave, love."

"No, I haven't." She rolled her eyes at his assertion and continued use of a word—love—he knew nothing about. "You always make sure to leave just enough truth that you can twist the facts however you like."

"Always? How is that?"

The laugh in his voice stopped her march into the bedroom to retrieve her luggage and change out of the ridiculously expensive dress before she headed for downtown Miami and a more appropriate hotel room for a junior compliance officer—one that didn't have Austin Long tormenting her for his own entertainment.

"Always," she reiterated, knowing he was playing her.

She just didn't know how he was playing her. Was he trying to wear her down with a pointless argument, one he would concede in some phony show of giving ground in their battle? Was he trying to make her so mad she would exhaust herself and have to stop fighting?

Quirking one dark brow, he folded his arms across his broad chest and shook his head. "I thought lawyers were in the habit of offering proof?"

"That," she jabbed a finger at him even though the entire room separated them. "You introduced me more than once today as your legal counsel. You know I'm not. I haven't taken the bar, or been sworn in, and attorneys sure as fuck don't fuck their clients—"

"My bad, baby." He pushed away from the door, the look on his face not the least bit apologetic. "Want to spank me? I'm pretty sure there's a paddle in this room unless you want skin on skin."

She would need a paddle. She couldn't imagine hitting that hard ass of his with her hand.

"Austin Long," she answered, shaking her head. "You need to get real—and fast—because I’m tired of all your foolishness."

He took a slow blink and licked his lips. If he was trying to squash the grin on his face, he failed.

"Maybe you want me to spank you?"

Freezing at his approach, she said nothing.

"Yeah, I think maybe you'd like that, baby."

It was her turn to blink—in disbelief. The man was as audacious as he was obstinate, as obstinate as he was rich. That wasn't an attractive combination no matter what the package it came in looked like.

Her hands lowered to her hips. Her fingers squeezed her flesh as she tried to bring her temper under control.

"If you knew what I like, you wouldn't have resorted to tricking me into coming to Miami," she shot back. "Which you know you did. Whitley wasn't even expecting me, was he?"

"If that's what you really believe, it sounds like one more reason to spank me," he answered with a chuckle before his gaze turned serious. "Or have me spank you."

"I'm through humoring you, Long.
