Chapter One

Even in the heat of fucking, Sophie felt the chill Logan e wails coan fed his cock to her pussy, he was cold, distant, removed from the experience as if it was an out-of-body event

Sophie hid in the corner of the darkened alley,and withdrawing

The beautiful redhead he was fucking didn't seean's eyes, but Sophie saw And wondered why

She wondered a lot of things Like what Logan Storm, CEO of New Orleans'

fanciest hotel, was doing in a dark alley in the French Quarter atthe wo out a business agenda

Sophie felt it all, though Every stroke of his shaft, every kiss, every caress, everything the redhead experienced The wo point

Logan gave it to her with an icy calm

Yes, he was definitely cold At least with the wo all of himself, almost as if he'd removed himself from the passion Yet underneath she felt his heat--so as he holding back?

"Fuck endary cock of yours Hard and deep, baby"

Logan grunted, but didn't speak, just ra pussy Sophie's cunt contracted as if Logan's shaft had speared her swollen and aching slit

What brought hiht? This was her area of town, the alleys and streets she haunted Definitely not a place she i He had a fine hotel, and he lived in the penthouse apartments above it Surely he didn't need to have sex in an alley

Maybe he was hiding out, atte no one would see hiht away Who wouldn't? His face graced the cover of ain

Then again, it was Mardi Gras, and prettythis time of year Winters were relatively ht out the tourists and the locals alike

But a big businessa woman in an alley? Now that she hadn't expected

Yet here he was, in the last place she'd ever thought she'd see hian didn't travel in the sahly unlikely their paths would cross here Although she'd known they were destined to er lately

Theirhad been preordained She just hadn't expected it to be like this Not here, and sure as hell not like this

Fate sure was funny at times

The cool February wind shifted, swirling around her feet and lifting her skirts The bells on her ankle bracelet tinkled in the breeze

Logan looked up and turned his sharp gaze to her

Too late to slip away in the shadows He'd seen her

Nohat? The polite thing to do would be to leave, go back where she'd coan and the woman their privacy

But so in his cold stare coe there, perhaps? Maybe a trace of heat? A connection? She'd certainly felt it, an invisible line tying her to him Did he feel it, too?

He hadn't spoken, and the redhead couldn't see her Logan's body was between Sophie and the woh Sophie could lean to the side and see the wo the folds of her pussy

Not that it was necessary for her to see She felt every single one of Logan's thrusts as if he were fucking her instead

Her lips parted as she sucked in a breath of the crisp, wintry air Beneath the thin peasant top her breasts swelled, her nipples aching to be free of the confines of the hs with the cream of arousal

In herher In her heart, she wished for it to be so

Soon, it would be

As if he'd heard her thoughts, he frowned She held his gaze and drew her hands up to her breasts, h the thin cotton

He inhaled sharply and grabbed the redhead's buttocks, lifting the woher over her hips as he drove deep and fast, relentless in his punishing thrusts

The redhead cried out and wrapped one leg around Logan's hip

"Mon Dieu, Logan Fuckher hips and grinding her pussy against his pelvis

Logan seeaze still riveted on Sophie

Soan Mental telepathy? She didn't knohat it was, only that it had to be answered The urge had grown too strong She couldn't resist sliding her palauze skirt to her thighs, desperate to ony of arousal called to her and she needed relief only an orgasm could provide

Her hand becaan's shaft as she slipped theed them inside her cunt Her soft walls quivered, then squeezed her fingers as if they elco a hard cock

She wished

Panting, already near a blistering clian His cold blue eyes pierced her, held her captive, demanded her satisfaction as if her pleasure drove him

Wordlessly, he coers deeper, faster, searching out her clit with her other hand and circling the distended nub, the explosion growing closer and closer

The redhead screaainst the cool brick wall, needing support as her legs trean continued to pound his cock into the whi woman, harder and faster

As if the redhead didn't exist, as if Sophie was responsible for his gratification, he nodded to her She let the floodgates loose Her clih her and she bit down on her bottoroaned and uttered a string of curses as he ca Logan's c

lear blue eyes focused on her as he came inside another woman

She felt it all, the spas of his ar on his lips as he bent to take the woleher

She'd never clily from her own hand

Spent, she could only lean against the building, watching the heat disappear frohted his clothing as the woman smoothed her skirt over her hips

The redhead smirked, pressed a kiss to his lips and caressed his cheek "You are an anireed to fuck me out here"

"This place is just as good as any other," he replied, no warmth or emotion in his voice "Besides, you wanted it this way"

The redhead caressed his cheek "Oui And you know exactly what I want, cher"

Sophie was relieved that Logan's body hid the redhead fro she wanted was to eain, if the woman had been worried about discovery, she probably wouldn't have screwed Logan in a public place

"I need to go," the woht of the streetlamp

Sophie shook her head, surprised that both of them would consider what had happened as e of passion That was the problean didn't feel the heat with that woman

Because he'd been with the wrong woman

"Later, cherie," he said, and Sophie inhaled the husky tones of his voice A ht sexy, his voice enticed her Just as she always kneould She'd been hearing it in her visions for as long as she could remember

The woman walked toward theback and forth No doubt for effect But Logan wasn't watching He'd turned and trained his glowering gaze on her, instead

She waited as he approached

"Enjoy the show?" he asked, the sarcasm evident in his now cold voice

"You know I did"

He crossed his ar in a sardonic smile "Glad to be ofassistance"

"I want to see you again," she blurted, knowing that if she didn't do it now, the opportunity ht be forever lost

He arched a raven brow "I don't think so, cher"
