"That's fantastic!" Eden said, relaxing, her pleasure in the success of the evening blatant and clearly genuine.

He could not remember if he had donated anything beyond the door admission for him and his wife. Couldn't even remember buying the tickets. His mother and brother were here as well, but he didn't know if they had bought their own tickets. He hated these lapses of knowledge in his memory.

The hostess laughed. "How could it be anything else? You bought tickets for so many people here, Eden, it should be your name being bandied about tonight, not mine."

Well that answered one question…the one of who had bought the tickets. It was such a small thing, but there were so many little glitches like that in his memory banks, they were driving him crazy. His personal frustration aside, he could not fault a wife who had used his resources in such a fashion.

"Like I had anything else to do with my allowance," Eden said, sounding very American. "Aristide is so generous with me, I never have to buy anything for myself."

The unexpected approval in her voice warmed him. Until he remembered that approval was for the man he'd been before he lost his memory. She certainly wasn't as enamored of the man he was now… or at least the way that man treated her.

"I would happily double your allowance if this is how you would like to spend the money," he said honestly.

She looked up at him, her expression open and filled with pleasure for the first time in days. "Are you serious?"

"Very." He would triple it, if doing so would keep that expression on her face when she looked at him. "In fact, I will put you in charge of Kouros Industries' charitable contributions if you like."

Her expression closed up immediately and she looked away, all the relaxing her body had done disappearing in the blink of an eye. "That is Kassandra's domain."

"She has enough to keep her busy, she will be content to give that up, I am sure."

"Don't bet on it," Eden muttered.

"It does not matter. I am the boss, not she."

Eden's snort was followed by good-natured laughter from those around him. Clearly, the others thought she was teasing him, but he knew better.

He turned her to face him, his already overactive libido going into overdrive as he got a very nice view down the front of her slinky little dress. Damn it. Had other men seen her this way tonight? He could see the top swell of her breasts and it didn't take much imagination to picture her nipples a little further down.

His sex tightened and he had to bite back a groan. He wanted her with an obsessive ache that grew with every passing day.

"You mock me at your peril," he growled with a teasing look for the benefit of the others.

She gave him a saucy grin that went straight to his groin. "What are you going to do about it?"

He knew what he wanted to do about it, but making love to her in front of an audience was not exactly his thing.
