eyes stare at me. I drop my gaze. There are no adjectives to describe how attractive he is, so I’ll settle with “beautiful.”
    I recall that I was pissed at him five seconds ago, so I lift my chin up and stare into his alluring eyes.
    “Adrian wanted my help with a gift for Victoria. I did some shopping for him. That was all.”
    A broad grin showcases his dimples, and something wicked flashes across his eyes. He gently takes hold of my chin, and I gasp. “I can’t figure you out. Maybe that’s why I was doubtful. Plus the fact you know Victoria. I, uh, I hope you knew she was a cop.”
    “Yes, she told me.” Zev keeps his hold on my chin and grazes his pointer finger of his other hand down my throat ever so slowly. I suck in a breath and hold it.
    This meeting is not going the way I envisioned. Zev has always seemed solemn and all business when in the lounges, but a different side of him is being revealed tonight.
    His finger continues its trail to the top of my chest. His eyes flit down, and a part of me is relieved he caved on the staring contest. He comes to a stop at the top of my tank top.
    Eyes revert back to mine, and the businesslike expression Zev normally wears returns. “Don’t say a word about this to anyone. Do you understand?”
    “Yes, sir.”
    “Mmm … maybe I like you calling me sir after all.”
    I swallow. His finger holding its place at my chest only adds to my nervousness.
    “It’s for your own safety, Tara. Noah is no one to fuck with. Stay away from him the best you can.”
    “Yes, sir.”
    I watch him swallow now as he gazes into my eyes.
    “Thank you for telling me. You should go.”
    He releases my chin, but his finger lingers, so I step back away from him and scurry out the door. Shutting it behind me, I lean against it and inhale a breath of relief. I think Zev Cassano just made me need a change of panties.

    Stripping down to my boxer briefs, I climb into bed next to Sadie. Her eyelashes flutter as she yawns and curls her heated body right into me. Her hand presses to my chest before her eyes fly open and she pulls back.
    “How did you get into my apartment?”
    “I borrowed your key last night when I left to go back to Submission. I was hoping not to wake you when I returned, but that didn’t work out.” She smirks at me and yawns again. “It’s four a.m. I hope you don’t mind that I’m here. I needed to feel your warm body against mine.”
    Her hair is … what do chicks call it? Frizzy, and I believe that’s drool dried up on her cheek, but she’s still my beautiful girl as she gives me an adorable grin.
    “I’m glad you borrowed my key.”
    “Good. Now, I want to try this thing called ‘sleeping next to a chick.’”
    Her eyes sparkle with bewilderment. “You never slept with a woman before me?”
    “No, Sadie. Since I’ve had a night job for as long as I can remember, it’s not been difficult to dodge.” I chuckle. “Nail and bail, baby.”
    She swats my chest. “No more bailing. Oh, and no nailing other women, either. Only me.”
    I squeeze her waist. “Only nail you, huh?”
    Her face flushes red. “I can think of a more respectable term.”
    “What? Intercourse?” I cackle, and Sadie tickles my ribs. In seconds, I have her on her back. I press my body into her and feel my dick spring to life. “Maybe I need to respect you right now. You know, make nice .”
    Her fingers move the long hair from my face as she grants me her breathtaking grin once more.
    “I sinceriously hope so.”
    “Fuck, I got it bad for you, Scientist Sadie.”
    “I’ve got it bad for you, too, and I think I should show you how much.” Her hand shoves between us and strokes my morning wood (hey, it is morning. I just haven’t been to bed yet), and it’s not long before she’s out from underneath me, pushing me onto my back. Getting on her knees, she yanks down my boxer briefs.
    “I’ve been doing my research, Mr. Cassano. I have found various techniques
