have said the words, but you wouldn’t be here if you weren’t interested.’
    She raised her chin to stare at him. Her piercing blue eyes reminded him of a Siberian husky. ‘Perhaps I’m only interested in one night with you. Perhaps I’ve decided that you’re the one who should be on his knees begging me to touch him.’
    At her words, his groin tightened and he slid his hand around her hips to press her against his hardening cock. ‘That’s not what I’m offering. If you want a guy to adore you on his knees, call that jerk you were supposed to stay the weekend with.’
    She squirmed in his grip and he held her even tighter.
    ‘You need to be fucked good and hard until you’re so sated that you can’t move. You need a man who can make you so hot that you’ll agree to have sex wherever or whenever he wants it.’ He bent his head and kissed her hard on the mouth until she leant into him. ‘Tell me I’m wrong.’
    She touched his lips, outlining them with the tip of her finger. His cock butted at the fly of his jeans like an untrained colt.
    ‘I can’t.’
    Jay closed his eyes. Had he gone too far? Something about her made him want to explore the depths of his darkest desires. He wasn’t sure why but he’d thought she felt the same.
    ‘Then go home.’ He forced himself to withdraw from their embrace.
    ‘That’s not what I meant. I can’t deny that I want some excitement in my love life.’
    He let out his breath as a slow tide of relief laced with lust flooded his system. ‘Then let’s move on.’
    ‘Do you still want me to go and buy a skirt?’
    He allowed his gaze to travel over her from head to toe. ‘No, I always enjoy a challenge.’
    Jay took her hand and tucked it into the crook of his elbow. In a vain attempt to cool down, she took a few deep breaths of the sea air. Her attempt to slow her libido seemed fruitless. Ever since he’d uttered the word ‘fuck’, she’d wanted to strip naked and shout ‘Yes please!’
    She pointed toward the corner of Market. ‘There’s a great restaurant here, or the revolving one at the top of the Hyatt Regency.’
    ‘Let’s try the Hyatt.’
    They didn’t talk for the rest of the walk. Helen let Jay set a pace that was comfortable for him. At first his gait was a little awkward. She felt bad about him standing waiting for her for so long but she knew he wouldn’t appreciate her mentioning it. Like most macho men, he probably hated to be seen as weak.
    She wasn’t in a rush. The feel of his big body alongside hers and his warm citrus scent made her want to rub her face against his chest and purr like a cat in heat.
    The elevator was empty. Jay barely waited until the doors closed before he had her pressed against the wall, his face shadowed by the brim of his cowboy hat, his mouth demanding entrance to hers. She moaned as he slid a finger between two buttons on her silk blouse, bypassed her bra and unerringly located her right nipple.
    He teased the point until it ached and then turned his attention to the other one. By the time the elevator chimed, both her nipples were visible through the silk of her blouse. Jay stood back and stared at her. Her gaze fell to his jeans and the swell of his erection and she shivered.
    ‘Don’t worry. You’ll be down on your knees taking my cock into your mouth soon.’
    Her sex softened and cream flooded her pussy. With no panties, she wondered if he could smell the dampness he’d aroused. His smile told her he knew damn well what he’d done. For a second she regretted not wearing a skirt. He was right. It would’ve made things so much easier.
    He ushered her into the restaurant, the palm of his hand placed firmly in the small of her back. Helen glanced around the lobby. Even this early on a Friday night, the restaurant hummed with conversation. In the gathering dusk, the views over the bay and the city were spectacular. While they waited for the reservations clerk to finish with another customer, Jay slid his
