"Quit doing that You look gorgeous"

She looked at Mac "Quit doing what?"

"Fiddling with your hair It’s sexy like that"

She hadn’t even realized she was coers "It’s aLike you just got out of bed after spending several hours there with your lover It’s a very hot look"

She knew better It was a tangled bird’s nest "You’re blind"

Mac shook his head "No, I’ at"

He’d always been able to do that to her When his voice dropped low, his ht between her legs,her clit quiver Just like nohen he looked at her with his half-lidded gaze and spoke to her in that deep voice, the ierous to her libido as well as her emotions

The libido she could handle Her emotions she’d have to constantly wrestle with And the sooner she ended the journey, the better She took a quick glance at the telephone on the bedside table, wondering how she couldher

"I’ll wait if you want to take a shower first," she suggested, trying to appear nonchalant about it She stared into the carton of food, refusing to look hio ahead"

Okay, either way that could work to her advantage

When he was in the shower, she could at least notify her boss as going on, even filling him in about the virus And more importantly, that she wasn’t the one who had taken it

She could tell him she’d lost her cell phone, and that she’d report in when she could Then he’d at least have so up on the FBIs Ten Most Wanted list because of the stolen artifact wasn’t at all appealing to her

And thenwell, Mac couldn’t very well take the vial into the shoith hihtail it out of here in a hurry, grab a taxi and be on her way

Lots of options

She grabbed a change of clothes on the off chance she could et out of there while Mac was in the shower It was either that or parade around naked, and that she wasn’t prepared to do Though that h, wouldn’t it? She sht as she entered the bathroo as the steam filled the tiny roo the ater streaood she let out a moan of pure joy She could stay there for hours, but she had work to do She grabbed the shampoo and washed her hair, then conditioned it, truly appreciating the feel of cleanliness She closed her eyes and let the conditioner sit there for aher eyes closed as the water ran down her back

She shrieked in surprise at the rush of cold air when the shower door opened Her jaw dropped when a naked Mac stepped in

"What are you doing?" she asked

"Showering"

She arched a brow, refusing to appear shocked

"Couldn’t wait until I was finished?"

Her body flushed with heat This was the reason she’d thrown herself at Mac ten years ago, why she hadn’t be able to stay away from him The lure The temptation The bad boy who took what he wanted, damn rules and propriety His eyes went dark as he scanned her body, the e in them clear

He’d come in here for her--for sex He wanted her

She’d bet he’d come in here to distract her, too To keep her off balance Or lull her into so of closeness with him He wanted to bind her to hi, as far as sex, the feeling was mutual She wanted hi girl now and kne to guard her e Mac’s trust so she could get closer to the vial Nothingwhatevera colossaltime

She had a plan, and her plan included this dance with Mac If she derived pleasure froo so far--she had li," he said, his voice tight with strain

His cock was hardening She wanted her hands, her ht, she wouldn’t be Instead, it was her turn to distract and overwhel she’d given him pleasure She reached for the soap and held it under the streaether to work up a thick lather, then spread the soap over her breasts, letting the bubbles drift over her nipples They rolled over her breasts and down her belly Mac watched the trail with riveted interest

His gaze on her was like a heated caress, urging her on
