Chapter Fourteen

He must have passed his mother in the hall, because he showed up with their bags then. Dropping them inside the door, he pulled it shut behind him and flipped the lock. When he turned and met her eyes, she saw that City had taken a hike. Nev stood across the room, hot as the infernal regions, and he was looking at her like he wanted to screw her six ways from Sunday.

“Take it off,” he said.

He stepped toward her, shrugging out of his jacket and tossing it onto a chair. She backed toward the window. “Take what off?”

“Cath, if you don’t take that dress off right now, I won’t be blamed for what happens to it.”

Another advance, another retreat. He wore a summery blue-checked shirt, open at the throat, tucked into dark blue jeans that had probably cost a mint. Prince Charming in casual wear. Only this royal personage had just popped open the clasp on his belt.

“No.” She propped her hands on her hips. “Quit being so bossy.”

He paused, studying her for a long moment, and then grinned and yanked the belt out of the loops with one quick tug that made his biceps bunch. And her slightly faint. “You like it.”

“I don’t.”

She did.

He unbuttoned his fly, and her pulse kicked into high gear. “Your mother thought you might like to show me the grounds.”

“Later. This won’t take long. Lose the dress.”

“I’m not having sex with you in this room. It’s too creepy. You grew up sleeping in here, didn’t you? You probably have teenager porn under the bed.”

“I grew up away at school. I only ever slept here on holiday.” He pulled his shirttails out and pointed to the four-poster. “And now we’re going to sleep here, and I’m going to have sex with you in that bed.” As he scanned the rest of the room, his fingers worked loose the top button of his shirt. “Or quite possibly up against that wall, if you don’t behave.” He took a step closer, freeing another button. “Bent over and clinging to the bedpost.” Another step, another button. “Sitting on top of the chest of drawers.”

Now he stood directly in front of her, his shirt unbuttoned to the waist, the low murmur of his voice making liquid heat pool between her legs. “In the shower. On the floor. I’m not fussed at the moment. But if you don’t take that dress off immediately, I’m taking it off for you.”

She wanted to resist him. To punish him. Not for bringing her here and making her pretend to be someone she wasn’t—she’d agreed to do that, after all—but for the way he’d been in the parlor, talking to his mother. For his capacity to turn from Nev to City and back again in the blink of an eye. She didn’t like his social mask, and she didn’t like his secrets. She hated his bedroom, with its gorgeous Victorian furniture. Despised that he had grounds instead of a patchy front yard. Resented how much she wanted him in spite of all of it.
