As it was, her soft clothed body was torturing him. He wanted to tear her clothes off and touch every soft warm inch of her with his tongue just to see if she tasted that good all over.
―Max—― she could barely say his name.He had momentarily stunned her.
―Hush up.‖ He smiled while lifting himself up on his forearms to stare down at her, ―There‘s nothing wrong with this.‖
―Oh there is.‖ She argued. This was so wrong in so many ways!She thought she was in love with him before.This just pushed her past the point of no return.

The Billionaire‘s Secret Desire He bent his head and took her mouth again for a long heated moment before lifting it. Again she showed no resistance.
In fact, she responded to him like she was made for him.His eyes roved over her face, ―Nothing that feels that good, is wrong.‖
He repeated and to get his meaning through pushed his hips into hers again causing her eyes to widen. ―See?‖
There was a loud knock on the door interrupting them followed by a voice in Greek. Max turned his head and answered whoever it was without getting off her.
―Who was that?‖ she whispered, unable to find her voice.
He smiled searching her flushed face with his pale eyes,
―dinner time.‖
He said it as if it had nothing to do with food, ―Oh,‖ she said starting to become aware of the position they were in and started getting more embarrassed, ―Max—could you—―

His eyes suddenly flicked to her causing her to blush for being caught staring. ―Sorry.‖ She managed.
―What for?‖ he said sitting up and grabbing his suitcase like what had just occurred was a normal every day event, ―I don‘t mind if you look at me Lily. Look all you want.‖

He purposely tried not to make a big deal about what had just happened between them because he knew she was knocked off balance and he didn‘t want to lend more to her discomfort.Truth was, he was in deep deep trouble.The alphabet wouldn‘t help him this time.Nothing would.She 67

So much for trying to keep his mind on business. There was no way in hell he was going to be able to concentrate on anything but her.
In the bathroom, Lily was staring at her reflection in the mirror appalled at her behaviour and even more appalled at Max‘s. He kissed her. All sorts of things were flooding into her brain with that. Did he mean it when he said that he wasn‘t that desperate for sex? If he did, that meant he kissed her because he wanted to.It was too difficult for her to fathom.How could someone like Max King be interested in her when he could have his pick of any woman he wanted?Cybil Dawn was incredibly beautiful despite her venom.Any man would be willing to overlook her vices just to date her.
