from him.
     
    “Good start, but needs further work,” he said pulling away from her and rubbing his thumb over her reddened mouth.  “You need to try harder, like I said I’m not easy to impress, Gina.  Do you want me to show you how?”
     
    Gina shook her head, what was this man doing to her?  And what did he mean ‘ show her how ’ ?
     
    “Is this what I think it is, Mr Dark?”  She questioned as reality hit.  “Are you expecting me to sleep with you in return for that job?”
     
    “Did I say anything about sleeping with me, Gina,” he chuckled softly?  “But we both know what’s going on here, don’t we?”
     
    Gina shivered, yes she did know the score, what he really meant was sex and lower ing her gaze from his she felt herself blush s carlet at the full impact of his offer.  Sex in exchange for a job.  The idea was outrageous and he was so cool about it, he’d not batted so much as an eyelash when he’d put this to her.   And what sort of an offer was that anyway?  Well obviously a Matthew Dark sort of offer, she told herself as her face continued to glow scarlet.  What on Earth was going on , she hadn’t blushed in years and now it had happened twice in one day and both times because of him. 
     
    “ My offer makes you blush with embarrassment, Gina,” he chuckled again while running an exploratory finger over the fine silk of the strap of her dress and making her far too jittery to speak . “ But at least we understand one another,” he decided his fingers still dancing across her strap while his male brain calculated the most expedient w ay of remov ing the gown and how luscious that figure would look in the briefest of underwear.  “All I need now is your answer, do you want to impress me some more or not?”
     
    Gina ’s stomach was doing funny little flip over’s as he spoke.  She could almost feel the heat radiating from those chocolate eyes as they raked over her shapely body again from head to toe. 
     
    Fully aware how uncomfortable she was by both his offer and this study he blatantly settled his gaze on her cleavage.  The bodice of the dress was cut deep and showed off the round swell of her large breasts to perfection.  She was on display and he liked to look and if he had anything to do with it, he’d do much more than just look later. He raised a dark eyebrow and pushed her against the wall again before running a finger down her cheek and delicately rubbing her full, red lips with his thumb again.  
     
    “Arousal suits you,” he whispered, his deep Scottish accent as sweet as a caress.  “ I’m flattered that my inspection causes such mayhem,” he purred gently. “I can see the need on your face and I can guess what turmoil is going on elsewhere in your body,” he added wickedly. 
     
    Could she really jeopardise her own self respect and sleep with him in return for the job she wanted.  But remember why you want the job; she mentally nudged herself as if that reason would somehow make submitting to this man’s demands less of a problem.

    “So what’s it to be?”  He asked her .  “I won’t wait all night, I’m an impatient man,” he added. 
     
    “You’re asking too much and you know you are, so no, I can’t just go upstairs with you, that’s not my way.”
     
    Another smirk as he caught her fearful blue eyes in the gaze of his dark ones.
     
    “You’re just nervous, nervous and cautious because you think all this has happened too fast.  But you shouldn’t be,” he tempted a sexy smile playing on his lips.
     
    But that smile didn’t quite reach all the way up to those brown eyes anymore.  They had a hard, still quality as he stared at her.  Why did he have to be so very difficult to read?  What was really going on inside this man’s head?  And all the warnings she’d been given were back, cluttering up her mind.
     
    “We both know there’s a heat between us, an attraction.  It was there
