“Careful, Nicolas, or you’ll make me break a promise to myself.”

“What promise?”

Her gaze bored into his. “To keep my hands and lips off you.”

“How can I convince you to break that promise over and over again?” He’d never met anyone quite like Chloe—pretty, genuine, unique…and he’d already seen how flexible she was. His imagination heated up.

“Nicolas…”

“Yes, sexy?”

She bit her lip. “Sorry. I never expected to hear my teenage dream call me that. It’s a little overwhelming.”

“Sexy? I’m just a man. And you are a very desirable woman. Two people who can make one another very happy.”

“It’s not that simple. I’m on the job and you are…” She let out a breath. “You are my Nicky M.”

He smiled. He liked that, the way she had possessed him. “I can be yours tonight in the flesh. Let me make all your dreams come true. Say yes.”
