It was just like sex--without the fucking.

Getting a hard-on in the middle of a crowded dance floor was a bad idea, but a man could only handle so much torture, and Teresa rubbing her butt back and forth across straining denim was doing a number on him. He gritted his teeth, grabbed her hips and whipped her around to face him, taking her arm and placing it around his neck.

"You're doing a little dirty dancing here," he said, rocking his pelvis against hers.

She arched a brow. "You complaining?"

"Hell no. But you're going to be embarrassed when you have to walk out of this crowd and your partner has a hard-on."

She shimmied in, pressing closer to said hard-on. "I'm not embarrassed at all. As long as you don't use it on anyone else."

He sucked in a deep breath and tried to remember to keep things light and easy with Teresa. He backed off a little, but she only moved in again, raised her leg and draped it over his hip to rock against him.

"I'm tired of being treated like I'm fragile, Pax. Don't back away."

"I'm trying to respect where you've been and what you went through, Teresa."

"I appreciate that. Now I just want to be treated like I'm a normal woman." She moved in, wrapped both arms around his neck. "A normal woman you might want to take to bed."

He pulled her tighter against him. "You know that's exactly what I want to do. But you also know the deal."

She tilted her head back, her green eyes sparkling under the lights of the dance floor. "Yes, I know the deal."

A deal he knew she wasn't ready for. Yet. Pax lifted his gaze to the fringes of the dance floor. "AJ's scored us a table. Let's go have a drink."

He took her hand and led her off the floor and toward the table. Okay, so maybe he'd chickened out, but the way she looked at him--the way she made him feel--he wasn't sure if he was ready for that. And he was damn sure she wasn't ready for him and AJ, no matter what she said.

"Who'd you have to kill to get this table?" Teresa asked as she took a seat and the beer AJ slid her way.

AJ grinned. "I can be charming if I need to be."

Pax snorted, and AJ slanted a dirty look in his direction.

"Okay, so I might have muscled a couple of puny guys who thought they could take the table."

"That's what I thought." Teresa put her feet up on AJ's lap and took a long swallow from the bottle of beer. "It's hot out there on the dance floor."

"Yeah, you looked pretty hot when you were out there," AJ said. "For a minute I thought you and Pax were going to get down and dirty right there in front of everyone."

She laughed. "The thought had crossed my mind. But Pax is too much of a gentleman."

Now it was AJ's turn to snort out a laugh. "I don't think I've ever heard Pax referred to as a gentleman.
