across her nipple once more, then abandoned her. His low, commanding voice resonated through the expansive chamber. “Vasily, she is already very near. Would you like—”
    “Go ahead.” Low and rough, the gravely masculine voice answered from near the window. It held a familiarity Sasha couldn’t place with all the conflicting sensations rocketing through her body. She didn’t care who touched her now, so long as someone did. So long as someone made it easier to breathe, to move, without feeling like she might burst apart.
    A belt buckle jangled in the quiet. Sasha bit down on her lower lip to silence a budding whimper.
    W hile Saeed removed his clothing, Alexei turned to the open window and looked down at the palace compound below. Long rows of greenery and manicured shrubs cast deep shadows in the moonlight. A wide pool sparkled with a salmon glow. But Alexei’s attention remained on the row of luxury SUVs parked near the front of the palace where his partner, Grigoriy, waited with Saeed’s security guards. Grigoriy would be watching.
    Alexei pressed a button on his watch, illuminating the face in pale blue. He twisted his wrist to the outdoors, silently counted to ten, thenturned his attention on the man and woman in the bed behind him. Brown skin slid against creamy curves, a stark contrast that spoke to Alexei’s base instincts. His cock swelled in response to Sasha’s faint whimpers, to the way she flattened her feet on the bed and parted her knees, making room for Saeed to probe her pussy with his tongue.
    Alexei shucked his clothes quietly and took his cock in hand. Two firm pulls filled him to capacity. It would take far more to see him to release. More than this woman could likely withstand. Not that he had any intention of going that distance with her. No, she’d find satisfaction tonight, but he never would.
    For several long moments, he allowed himself to simply watch the intimate display taking place in front of him. Though he had always been detached from sex emotionally, he couldn’t deny he liked to watch a woman’spleasure. Sasha arched and writhed, her hands dug into the satin bedding, her head tossed to the side. Down deep in Alexei’s gut, desire burned. But he forced himself to wait. He wanted to see her orgasm before he joined the play. And she was close. Not much longer now, and she’d come apart in Saeed’s hands.
    Sasha twisted her head in his direction, her black blindfold holding long blonde hair out of her face. He’d expected the blonde and all the uncomfortable truths that came with it, but the blindfold offered Alexei a modicum of relief. He had made the request to cover her eyes knowing Sasha might recognize him, even if he didn’t recognize her. And she would hate him. Hate that would ruin his plans and destroy his cover if she looked at his face.
    He deserved that hate. Didn’t pretend he shouldn’t. But he didn’t give a damn about making amends. Not enough forgiveness existed in the world for what he’d done. All he wanted was to get the hell out of here and out of Dubai. Finish the mission and be done with sheikhs.
    Forget the wrongs he’d committed. The one woman he’d betrayed more than the others.
    Sasha keened, jerking Alexei out of his thoughts. The soft cry of pleasure held a familiar tone. His gaze snapped to her face once more, locking onto her sultry mouth, and his heart lodged against his ribs.
It can’t be…
    Quickly he took her in from head to toe, as best he could, and dismissed the notion. Irina didn’t possess this woman’s curves. Sasha’s breasts were full and pert, her hips rounded, her belly flat, but not hollow. Irina was a waif. Though she’d been strong, her legs muscular, she’d always been gangly. Beautiful. Vulnerable. But not lush.
    As disappointment threatened to swamp Alexei, Sasha bucked beneath Saeed’s mouth. Well-manicured hands that had never known the hard work of Irina’s latched into his thick black hair and held him in
