“Hello, again.”

I look up at the sound of Grayson’s voice. I’m quickly walking down the hall and silently curse when he catches up with me.

“Hello to you, too.”

“I haven’t seen you since you opened the front door. You’re not surprised to see me here,” he offers.

“Liar. I saw you later in your guest room,” I confess.

It’s his turn to be shocked. His smile lifts to a wicked smirk.

“You’re exquisite, by the way,” he admits.

Now I’m blushing. He made exquisite sound like sex. I thought I was going to pass out as I was touching myself against a wall and discovered that Evan wasn’t the only one enjoying the show. I shut out that fact because I was too far gone and the damage was already done. To Grayson’s credit, he only saw a moment, but he had to have listened in on the entire scene.

I stop walking and have to take a deep breath. Grayson pauses and studies me. I scan the hall because I’m scared of Evan’s reaction if he were to hear the exchange between us. It’s the same reason I’ve avoided Grayson for days.

“It’s my fault we were in that room. I opened the closest door. I apologize for the intrusion,” I say.

It’s hard to look him in the eyes but I manage.

“I’m not sorry in the least, darling. I had to restrain myself from pushing Evan out of the way and showing you what a real man is like.”

I don’t have anything else to say. My face is now on fire. I turn my back to Grayson, and look for anyone within earshot.

“How long are you staying?” I ask, aware he’s not going to leave things as they are.

We make it to the bottom of the enormous staircase before he answers me. He’s kept his distance until now.

“How long would you like me to? You’ve given me the most decadent dreams and I wanted to thank you for them.”

Footsteps clatter down the hall. I try to pull away from him. I don’t want to think of what Evan would do if he saw this, if he heard what Grayson’s alluding to. Evan’s already warned me about his dangerous brother, but all I see in the reflection of his gaze is teasing kindness.

I start to panic and it could be nothing, but I don’t want to risk it. Grayson has to see this change because he takes a small step back.

“I apologize for embarrassing you,” he whispers.

He observes me closely and reaches for my arm, halting my retreat.

“I truly am sorry. As tempting as you are, you’re still fearful of me. Even as innocent as our little exchange is.”

If this is innocent, then I don’t want to know what he considers sinful. He’s managed to pull me closer. His hand lightly strokes up my inner forearm. I pull back, but he grips me harder, keeping me tied to the spot.

We’re about to be seen by whoever is walking down the top of the stairs. I try again for him to give me my arm back.
