“How does lying look?”

What was the matter with her? She sounded like a fool, and she didn’t seem to be able to stop it. “I mean to you. How can you tell?”

“Lack of eye contact.” He moved closer. “A tense, closed expression, halting speech, hesitation.”

He certainly didn’t look tense. He looked powerful, in control and way too sexy.

“Take now,” he said, leaning ever so slightly forward. “Your expression is open. You’re not nervous. It’s like you’re inviting me in. Like you want me to see your innermost thoughts,” he continued.

She definitely didn’t want that.

“Like you’re thinking of physical contact...” He brushed her fingers, gently holding the tips of hers with the tips of his. He drew in a deep breath. “Wouldn’t be a bad thing.”

She felt a warmth rise over her wrist, up the inside of her arm and through to her chest. She didn’t want him to let go.
