Stephen watched as Abigail’s aura glowed, her passion enhancing the golden light with vibrant pinks, her whole body infused with it. He ached so badly that the mere brush of her leg against his trousers pained him.

Still he continued to kiss her, to murmur in her ear as she made the journey back down to earth. How he longed to have gone with her. But that could never come to pass. He had this moment and intended to hold onto it for all he was worth.

She opened her eyes, her expression of wonder bringing a smile to his face. He took no small measure of satisfaction in knowing he’d brought her such pleasure.

“That was...” Her loss for words only made him smile broader.

She shifted, bumping against his body. She frowned at his hardness and, before he could stop her, pressed her fingers on him.

The breath whooshed out of his lungs at her touch. He jerked her hand away.

“But what of you?” she asked. “I would bring you pleasure too.”

“You have, Abigail. You have.” He wove his fingers through hers to make certain they stayed in his.

“Not enough, surely.” Her blue eyes searched his face.

“As much as I can handle at the moment.”

She stretched up to kiss him, wrapping her arms around his neck. Desire resurged in an instant, and it took every ounce of his self control to loosen her arms and stand.

But she came with him.

Her warm, soft body against his made him try desperately to remember why he was pushing her away. The lady had no idea what havoc she was wreaking.

“I would finish what we started, Stephen.”

“That’s impossible.”

“Why?”

The throbbing in his loins made it difficult to form words that would make her understand. Hell, it was difficult for him to understand. “I can’t give you what you want...what you need. There are things about me you don’t know.”

She trailed a finger down his scar again and his breath caught. Could she read his mind? That damned scar was a visible reminder of the day his life had been forever altered. If it weren’t for that terrible day, perhaps things would be different.

But regret served no purpose.

“There’s nothing you could tell me that would change my mind,” she said. “In fact, I’ve wanted to ask you...”

Dark shades appeared in her aura, and he knew he wouldn’t like what she was going to say, yet he had to ask. “What is it?”

“I—I have a proposition for you.”

A dark spear appeared in her luminous pink aura. He waited silently while she worked up the courage to ask him whatever crazed notion she’d come up with.

“I would like to have an affair with you.”

“No.” He forced out the word despite the longing that surged through him, despite the fact that he ached for her body and soul and wanted nothing more than to have her as his own, if only temporarily.

Those blue eyes blinked at him, her hurt obvious. “Why not?”

“You deserve more than an affair.” He retrieved her shirt from the floor and handed it to her, hoping she’d dress before he changed his mind.
