âIâm so embarrassed,â Claudine said.
âWhy?â Felipe snapped from his doze. Somehow, he had carried her to the bed and scraped back the covers before theyâd fallen to the mattress. His attempt to catch his breath had turned into the twilight between reality and dreams.
Actually, that was where heâd been from the moment she had walked through the door.
Virgin, he recalled, and dragged himself into full awareness. He came up on an elbow. He didnât care if she was bleeding on the sheet, but she would feel self-conscious about it.
âBecause Vinicio is right outside that door,â she whispered with horror, looking toward it. âI didnât even lock it.â
âVinicio would not be my personal secretary if he didnât have the sense to clear the area for a five-kilometer radius when my future wife visits my bedroom wearing nothing more than moisturizer.â He fell onto his back again, letting his eyes drift shut, returning to the zen of post-orgasmic high.
âAnd a robe,â she corrected lightly and slithered closer. Her hand came to rest on his chest. âThis wasnât why I came in here, you know.â
âNo? I will maintain an open-door policy in future anyway, hoping for exactly this sort of surprise.â He picked up her hand, idly kissing each of her fingertips.

She held his hard stare, searching for ulterior motives.
