he was expecting her to say or what he was thinking.
     
    “I think you’re playing with me, Mr Dark.  And I think your suggestions are very questionable and I don’t believe you’ve any intention of offering me the job, not in a million years,” she threw back at him.  “You made that quite clear this morning.”
     
    “But what if I said I’d make an exception in your case?”
     
    Gina gave him a doubtful look and shook her head.
     
    “Think about it, think about that job you’ve apparently set your heart on,” he tempted while those chocolate eyes roamed slowly over her body before settling on the deep cut neckline of her gown.
     
    “OK, go on then, tell me, what exactly would I have to do?”
     
    “Are you really telling me that a resourceful young woman like you has no idea how to impress me, Miss Haddon?”   He asked amused at the bewilderment on her face.  “Well perhaps I should have made myself clearer.  What is it that most men want from a woman they find attractive and are in a position to wield power over?”  He continued. 
     
    He watched her step away from him and stiffen, shock, anger or just sheer embarrassment, he couldn’t tell.  But the proposition was plain enough.  He wanted her and she wanted that job.  A fair trade, Dark thought.  Well it might have been if his offer had been genuine.  But he was loosing patience now.  This little lady was getting to him, her determination to resist, the way she always wanted to broker an argument rather than demur to his will, Dark felt the need so much it hurt.  He wanted to take her, take her hard and show her who really had the upper hand and do it in a way she’d not forget.
     
    “So do we understand one another now?”   He asked still watching her.  “Because if we do then you need to get started.”
     
    “What do you mean, get started,” she frowned stepping backwards from him.   “What is it you expect me to do?”
     
    “ I expect you to start impressing me , Miss Haddon,” he told her patiently.   “ Come here and I’ll explain,” he invited smoothly holding out his hand.
     
    Gina had no idea what was really going on but she knew that Dark was playing some weird game with her.  But what harm could it do if she went along with him for a little while longer, she wondered?  There were plenty of people within earshot if things got tricky so when he reached for her and took her arm she let him pull her closer.
     
    “Good, now lean against the wall,” he instructed twisting her around and pushing her back before taking her face in his two hands.
     
    “Part those lovely lips and look at me,” he smouldered.  “Now I’m going to kiss you and you will kiss me back and you won’t struggle, is that agreed Gina?”
     
    This was almost like a dream, he was looking at her with those gorgeous eyes and his mouth hovered so very close to her own.  What was she supposed to do?  Was this real?  Gina blinked, but nothing had changed, he hadn’t disappeared in a puff of smoke so this wasn’t a dream, she thrilled.  Matthew Dark was going to kiss her.  Gina’s insides seemed to dissolve into a sparkly fizz of heady excitement as he came closer .  Despite deploring his attitude she couldn’t help feeling the way she did about him.  Her body burned with excitement and every nerve end tingled with wild anticipation at what was going to happen next .
     
    As his mouth touched hers Gina felt the heat intensify and uttered a little involuntary moan of pleasure.  At first he teased dancing h is tongue seductively between her full lips, exploring, forcing her mouth a little wider and savouring the taste of her.  Then hearing her moan again he took hold of both her arms and clamped them tight against the wall and kissed her hard and hungry.  The way she reacted, responded gave Dark all the encouragement he needed.  She might be all smart retorts and sarcasm but she wanted more and her body couldn’t hide it
