Tears ran wet and warm down her temples and into her hair, as Veronica lay crushed under Marcus's welcome weight. Common sense made a bid to reassert itself and tell her what a stupid thing she had just done, but her emotions and her body weren't listening. They felt sated for the first time in so long that she didn't want to think what she'd just experienced could have been anything less than the best choice she could have made.

He lifted his head and wiped at his own cheek, then touched her temple. The light from the doorway cast his face in shadow and she could not read its expression.

"You said I didn't hurt you." His voice washed over her with masculine concern.

She shook her head against the pillow, unable to speak at first. She blinked, stemming the flow of tears. "You didn't."

"Then why are you crying?"

"I missed you."' The words were bald, but the truth.

She had spent eighteen months away from him, and not one day of that had gone by that she hadn't physically ached for his presence.

"You left me." He didn't sound accusatory. He didn't even sound angry. He sounded bewildered. "Why?"

"I didn't think I had a choice."

"You didn't trust me."

"I didn't know you." How could you trust a man you didn't know, particularly a man who had told you that all he had to give you was sex?

He shifted and she could feel his still semierect flesh move inside of her. "How can you say that? You knew me more intimately than any woman ever had."

She stared at him, bemused. Did he truly believe that? "Marcus, I don't even know your parents' names, if they are alive or dead, if you have siblings. You hide all the intimate details of yourself behind your atrocious sense of humor and overwhelming sensuality."

A sensuality that had given her the courage to strip naked and wait for him in bed although he'd taken long enough "saving the steaks" that she would have been excused for believing he'd had second thoughts.

He kissed the corner of her mouth and moved his hips again, and the semi state of his erection altered to a much more solid reality. She murmured in protest when he withdrew from her body, but the sound died in her throat when he opened the nightstand drawer again and went about changing condoms with swift efficiency.

He came back to her, pushing her thighs apart to enter her once again, this time inch by leisurely inch.

He smiled with sensual promise into her eyes. "My mother's name is Sharon and my father's name is Lionel Marcus Danvers the fourth."

She sucked in her breath and ground her hips in a circular motion against him. 'Tell me later…"

Then she was lost once again in the whirlwind that always carried her away when he touched her. His thrusts were agonizingly slow and overwhelmingly deep. He kissed and caressed her until she panted with her need for fulfillment and then he gave it to her
