Excerpt: Surely, he would not be pushing her for an answer if he did not want her. He could have let the whole thing go. That bought another more terrifying thought into her head. What if she admitted her feelings for him? And they acted on them. She had never been with a man. Whilst Phil had slept with so many women, he must have lost count.
"Christina. Tell me," he whispered.
"Yes." She could feel herself trembling even though her body felt feverishly hot.
Phil let out a long breath as though he had been holding it for minutes. Christina began to wonder if she had done the right thing, but she could not have lied to him. She steeled herself for the rejection she knew would follow.
"I don't want to hurt you, Christina. If you say the word, I will let this go and won't say a word to anyone. But if you want me, I would really like to take you to bed right now. It's something I have wanted to do ever since that night you walked in on me."
Her head spun. She could not quite comprehend his words. Surely, this was one of his jokes, but as she looked into his eyes, she could not see any hint of amusement. He was deadly serious.
