Seven

Later that evening, in her bed at home, Emily rolled over and buried her face in her pillow. She hadn’t been able to forget, not for one minute, how it felt to have Matt’s hand between her legs, his mouth on her nipple, her tongue in his mouth.

How he’d effortlessly brought her to her first orgasm.

Her chest tight, Emily lifted her head, sucked in some air and flipped onto her back, kicking away her bedcovers in frustration. She turned her head to look at Nico’s engagement ring sitting on the bedside table, fighting the urge to toss it out the window. She should feel guilty about what happened between her and Matt on the beach but she didn’t.

She wasn’t in love with Nico and she had no intention of marrying him. Ever. This was a sham engagement and she owed her blackmailing fiancé no loyalty.

But she couldn’t allow him to find out that Matt had touched her, with great skill, on an empty beach earlier in the day. If he did, her entire world, and her dad’s and, to an extent, Davy’s, would come crashing down around her. She had to tread carefully, be smart, keep her wits about her and the only way to do that was to avoid Matt Velez.

Easier said than done.

Emily still wanted him, here now. In her bed. Leaning over her, sliding into her, setting her on fire again and encouraging her to dance in the flames.

She’d had one or two boyfriends along the way, both of whom didn’t last long nor knew their way around a woman’s body. She’d slept with men just a handful of times and it had been awkward and bumbling and they’d walked away satisfied while she was left wondering why everyone made such a big deal about sex.

She now knew. God, how she knew. And she suspected that she’d just had a small taste of how satisfying and fulfilling lovemaking could be...

She’d love to explore this bright new world with Matt, have him introduce her to, well, more but that was dangerous thinking. She had, technically and in name only, a fiancé and he was threatening to destroy everything she’d worked for unless she gave him what he wanted.

But, even if Nico wasn’t a factor, Matt was extremely dangerous to her emotional health. If she allowed herself to, she could love him and love never ended well for her. The people who loved her always left and Matt would not be the exception to the rule.

Emily had no intention of being left behind so she should be concentrating on how to find a way out of that mess and stop thinking about how else Matt Velez could make her scream.

Be sensible, Emily. Focus on what is important and that is saving Arnott’s.

Knowing that she wouldn’t be nodding off anytime soon, not with the whirling, swirling sensations sliding through her body—was this what horny felt like? How uncomfortable!—Emily left her bed, walked into her lounge and sat down behind her computer.
