His heat consumed her; his soft, teasing lips seemed to know all of her secrets. When he lifted his mouth from hers, she had lost all strength. His next words pierced through her sensual haze. "They should leave you wanting.”

"One must use one's talents to one's advantage, Lady Calpurnia." "Something I am certain you do quite well." His voice deepened. "I assure you, I do it very well.”
