Chapter 16
When Kayla exited the hotelâs marble bathroom, Jared was already sprawled in the bed. Against the crisp white sheets, he was black-haired, stubble-jawed, with a dusting of dark hair on his chest and arms, his winter-pale skin warm with life. Her eyes went to the tattoo sharply delineated on his muscular arm. The top sheet barely covered him, a deliberate tease she suspected.
Well, two could play.
Sheâd tied the sash of her green satin robe so when she walked it fell open along the length of her legs. Almost, not quite indecent. The neckline crossed high over her breasts and would have been modest but for the way it clung to her nipples, clearly outlined under the thin fabric.
She turned on every light as she walked toward him, every lamp, every switch until the room was ablaze. Stopped at the end of the bed.
âIâm not wearing the corset,â she said.
âOh?â He waited.
âIâm saving it. Tonight, Iâm not wearing anything.â
Tonight, Iâm taking back my power. She half slid the robe off her shoulders, stopping when her breasts were almost bare. âUnless,â she pouted, âyouâre disappointed?â
âBetty,â he growled, his eyes hooded, waiting, wanting.
With a smile curving her lips, she untied the robe, letting it fall in a slither of cool silk down her butt and the back of her thighs, and stood there in her glittery red stilettos.

He shifted in the bed, his eyes hot, slipping the sheet away for his own reveal that very clearly said, Hell, yeah.
She laughed deep in her throat, her fingers sliding down her breast, her belly, around her hips and to her mound. âCan you satisfy this much woman, Bob?â
âYou know, Betty, I have a confession. My nameâs not Bob.â
âIt isnât?â
âItâs Jared. Maybe you could call it out when I make you come harder than youâve ever come in your life.â
Her knees threatened to buckle with lust, but she only chuckled and lifted her foot to the edge of the mattress to untie the strap of her shoe and remove it. First one, then the other, taking her time and making sure she gave him plenty to look at.
âAs it happens, Iâve been using a pseudonym, too. Call out Kayla when I make you see stars.â She added in a husky voice, âNow hold onto that pretty iron bed head for me.â
An old-fashioned girl could do a lot with old-fashioned furniture. Sheâd first had the thought on tour, among the five-star antiques, and never acted on it. But she could now.
He obeyed, and she took a moment to enjoy the pull of muscle across his deltoids and pecs. Climbing onto the bed, she
