She was still aondering bliss and stunned by the intensity of the experience when Aristandros slid between her thighs and sunk his hands below her hips to raise her His iron-hard shaft probed her lush opening, and she gasped at the strangeness of a sensation nified by the incredible sensitivity of her tender flesh He attee deeper, but for an instant her body seemed to resist him With a stifled exclamation he tipped back her knees to ease his entry Her untried feminine sheath finally stretched to accoly sensual pleasure of his penetration Her heart was racing as he delved deeper into her, and she arched up, on fire with excite She was spellbound by the heady exhilaration of his masculine do inside her again Just ed feverishly to another sexual peak which shattered her like glass into a hundred glittering pieces and flung her into the sun Stunned by the explosive intensity of the pleasure, she was better prepared when it happened yet again, before he achieved his own release

In the aftermath of that wild rollercoaster experience, Ella was in shock and as physically weak as a newborn kitten, drained by her own extravagant response

‘My every dreale cat in the heat of the sun Rolling back to her, he dropped a kiss on her brow and studied her with unashaasmic woman who sets my bed on fire, khriso mou’

Ella was hugely e been so wildly responsive She could not deny that sex with him had proved to be an extremely pleasurable activity But, whether it was fair or otherwise, she pretty much hated him for the fact that he had made her enjoy herself Her lovely flushed face bleak as a wintry day, she evaded his keen scrutiny because she felt she had let herself down After all, she had planned just to tolerate his love-, not leave hi lover

‘And so beautiful,’ Aristandros reh the silken tangle of white-blonde hair lying across her slim shoulder ‘But remarkably inventive with the truth’

Her hackles rose instantly Given the excuse, she pulled away fro?’

‘You said you’d had a lot of lovers But I don’t think there was even one’

‘Well, you’d be wrong!’ she hissed furiously

Aristandros captured her hand to i out of the other side of the bed ‘I’ve never shared a bed with a virgin before, but you felt as tight as one,’ he imparted softly

Affronted by the intimacy of that co, eh?’ she jibed, high spots of colour burning over her cheekbones ‘You’re Greek to your backbone, aren’t you? You’ve slept with scores of women but you don’t want one who’s enjoyed the same freedoin!’

‘Don’t speak to me like that,’ Aristandros intoned with an icy bite to his words

‘Se miso; I hate you!’ Ella spat at him

Stalking across the bedroo and her eyes were scratchy with the tears she was fighting back He had becoue than adive hiot really close to any man since he had walked out of her life seven years earlier, telling her that she would regret turning hi day She had met other men, but sadly nobody who had had the sa loved and lost hi less And those high standards had ensured she’d stayed single and alone

Recognising just how far she had now fallen from her own ideals hurt Ari made her feel vulnerable and threatened She already felt as though he had turned her inside out She got into the shower to freshen up, still shaken that he should have noticed that she was so less than experienced After years of athletic activity and the egg-donation process that had resulted in her sister conceiving, Ella had been confident that he would have no reason to ever guess the truth Her pride utterly denied hiht to that truth

She rapped in a tohen a knock sounded on the door She flung it open ‘What now?’

‘What’s the ether To?’
