WHAT HAD SHE DONE? What was she doing?

She knew now that she’d been wrong, and hurtful, to reduce what had happened between them in her office to “that.” She knew it wasn’t just about bodies colliding. There was something at work here that she couldn’t—or didn’t want to—give a name to.

But that didn’t mean it wouldn’t ruin her.

It didn’t mean it wouldn’t rob Mark and his father of money they needed.

It didn’t mean they wouldn’t break each other’s hearts when it turned out he didn’t want to live the life she’d chosen.

What they were doing now would have consequences. She couldn’t see all the ripples yet, but she could feel them. Something as seismic as Mark couldn’t happen to her without there being aftershocks.

And yet, here they were in a cab, side by side, on their way to her apartment. She had told him the most naked truth about herself, and she was going to make herself even more naked—maybe completely naked—in just a few minutes.

The craziest part was, there was still time to call it off, but she had no intention of doing so.

“There are dishes on my counter.”

“I don’t care,” he said.

“There’s toothpaste in my bathroom sink.”

“I find that endearing.”

“There’s a book of erotic stories and a vibrator on my nightstand.”

“Okay, now that’s just unfair. I need to know more. What exactly were you doing with this book of erotic stories and vibrator?”

The taxicab driver’s eyes found hers in the rearview mirror. “I think that story is going to have to wait,” she said, gesturing at the front seat.

“You could whisper.”

So she did. “I like to lie on my stomach on the bed and read. And the rule is, I can’t touch myself. Not even through my clothes.”

“Oh, God,” Mark groaned. “I shouldn’t have asked.”

She was glad he’d asked. Telling him, watching his jaw tighten and his color rise, was a total turn-on. She’d never talked like this to anyone, let alone in the back of a cab. She kept such a tight rein on how she presented herself to the world, even with people who didn’t have the power to make anything of what they knew.

“Then when I totally can’t stand it anymore, when I’m ready to explode, I tease myself with the vibrator. It’s not super strong, just a buzz, and I bring it just close enough so I can feel the vibrations, but only that close.”

His hand went—involuntarily, she thought—to the bulge in his jeans, and he pressed his palm there, which didn’t cool her ardor any. She glanced at the driver, but if he knew what was going on in the backseat of his cab, he was discreetly pretending not to. “God, that’s hot,” Mark growled.

“I make it last as long as I can. I draw it out, and I make myself watch the clock to see how long I can hold out before I come.”

He choked out an incoherent sound, and she reached for the rise of his cock under his jeans.
