his cell from his jacket pocket.
    “You will not!”  Mackenzie said, grabbing it from him.  She held the phone behind her back.  She didn’t like the disappointment on his face so she looked away.
    “Okay.”  He stepped toward her, lifting her chin so that she looked him in the eye.  “I’ll make you a deal.  Come to my apartment after work.  Spend the night with me.  We’ll do whatever you want to do.”
    “Really?” she asked, skeptically.
    “Whatever. You. Want.  Remember how much fun you had,” he dipped his mouth toward hers, “the last time you were there.”  He whispered his words, deliberately lacing them with intent, his tone seductive.  Her green eyes gave her thoughts away and he knew he’d won this round.
    “Okay,” she said softly.
    “I’ll send Simon to collect you.  What time?”
    “Um … midnight?”
    He chuckled.  It was clear that her thoughts were muddled.  They quite often were when she was aroused.  Her eyes were wide, slightly unfocused, pupils dilated, her cheeks flushed.  Fuck, I want her.   He dipped his head, tasting her, gently caressing her lips with his own and when she opened her mouth for him, he had no choice but to oblige.  Dipping his tongue into her hot, sweet mouth, he stroked it against hers and revelled in the soft mewling sound she made.  Using his free arm he cupped her backside, pulling her into his body he deepened their kiss.  Her hands came to the sides of his neck, her fingertips weaving into his hair.  He was so hard and ready for her again.  Fuck.   He pulled away.  Leaving her wanting would work in his favor, his unanswered need was something he could live with.  His body was built for endurance and the wait would be so fucking worth it.  She blinked at him, her cheeks even redder than before.  He could see her body was thrumming with need.
    “I’ll have to take a raincheck on those sandwiches.”
    “Huh?”
    He smiled at her, running his finger down the side of her face.  “Lunch?  I’ll let you have your space and see you tonight instead.”
    “Oh, okay.”
    She watched him turn and leave the room.  She was in a daze, not only because she was so thoroughly turned on but also because he was doing as she asked, giving her some time and yet now that she was watching him walk away she didn’t want him to go.  He turned abruptly and almost knocked into her.  She’d been following without meaning to and they were now standing in the living room.
    “One thing before I go.”  He crushed his lips to hers one last time, kissing her hard on the mouth.  “You never did tell me which flowers were your favorites.”
    “Oh, um ...”  She quickly glanced around the room looking for the right bouquet.  She took a couple of steps in that direction.  “These ones.”
    “The Gloriosa flower.”  He smiled, recalling the name the florist had said.  He was pleased with her choice.  It was a beautiful flower, something different to the rest.  It would stand out in a crowd just like the woman standing beside the arrangement.  He was also pleased with himself when he saw the surprised look on Mackenzie’s face, surprise that he knew the name of the flower, he guessed.  He loved that look on her.
    “Well, I better get dressed, I suppose.”  Mackenzie smirked at him before dropping the towel.  She turned and sashayed down the short hallway back to her room, butt naked.  “Have a lovely day at work, Sir,” she called over her shoulder.  Nate shook his head, grinning widely at the beautiful sight of her bare backside, before quietly slipping out the door to head to the office.
     
     

     
     
    “What are you doing here?”
    “Nice to see you too, brother.”  Tom grinned from where he was seated behind his desk.  “I work here, remember?”
    “I didn’t think you were coming back until next week.”
    “Well, I’m nothing if not efficient.  Things in Japan wrapped up sooner than expected.  I brought forward a
