that what they wanted you to do?”
    She couldn’t tell him the truth. Fuck, she didn’t want to put a complete stranger in danger’s path for no reason. That and the fact Tyrell would tear her apart. She moved closer to him, cocking her head to the side.
    “Wanted me to throw the race, actually. Make sure their man won so he could clean up in the betting circuit. Though I can’t prove anything, so there’s no point in bringing my complaint to the authorities.”
    Sean sighed, and stepped closer to her. She could feel the heat coming off his body, the scent of his skin, sweat and musk, and it all made her dizzy. Damn, if she didn’t get settled soon, he’d start feeling the effects of her pheromones. She had no doubt a man like Sean wouldn’t appreciate being controlled without his knowing. Still, she was fast running out of options. Without thinking she licked her lips, placed her open palm on his chest and leaned forward.
    “So, is your place near here?”
    “A few minutes away. They still watching?”
    “Haven’t moved.”
    “And they have a clear view of us?”
    “Sure do. Why?”
    He closed the distance between them, his mouth hot and firm against hers. The surge of blood through her body made her cunt throb and caused her to move tight against him to rub against his chest and thighs. His tongue fleetingly flicked along her bottom lip, dragging a moan from her. Gods, she had no problem imagining the feel of it lapping at her clit. How his hands would squeeze at her hips, holding her in place while he devoured her.
    When he finally pulled back, it was just enough so he could speak. His hot breath tickled her skin. “Okay, now they think we’re going to be heading out for sex. I’ll get us to my quarters and call security from there.”
    “No, please,” she breathed against his lips, biting down softly on the lower one.
    “They’ll know I’ve had something to do with it. Tyrell said he’d kill my crew if I did.”
    “Don’t worry. Taber will think of something.”
    “I don’t think—”
    “Amy, trust me.”
    Fuck, she didn’t even know the guy, how was she supposed to trust him? Still, she felt safer with him than she did with anyone else. And he was far sight better than the two goons down the hall. Basically, she had no choice. Nothing like a no-win situation.
    “We can discuss the details once we get to your place. Lead on.”
    Sean didn’t move away at first, instead letting his hand drift down to the swell of her ass. His fingers dug into her as he kneaded the flesh below the tight fabric of her pants. She shivered again and had to kick herself mentally. This was supposed to be an act , meaning nothing. Don’t let yourself get too turned-on, girl.

    Easier said than done.
    “We’re going now. You stay glued to me, okay.” He nipped at her chin.
    “Wouldn’t dream of leaving you.”
    Half pulling, half guiding, Sean led her in the opposite direction of the men. They took the first left, which moved them into another hall.
    “This is the main section for humans. My place is just down here.”
    Turning to suck his earlobe into her mouth, Amy was able to see the men following them from the corner of her eye.
    “They still with us?”
    “Yup.” She licked the shell of his ear. Fuck, he tasted good.
    “Not much longer.” He sounded as desperate as she felt. “Here we go.”
    She let out a soft gasp of surprise when Sean spun her around and pressed her back firmly against the wall. The sound was quickly muffled when he covered his lips with her. This wasn’t a soft kiss between friends. Hunger radiated off him as his hands ran repeatedly down her arms, along her lower back and down until he was cupping her ass hard. A tremor of arousal shot from her core, out to her nipples, now hard and pressed against his chest, and down to her pussy. Her moan this time was needy and low, full of the promise of sex. When Sean’s mouth slipped from hers to find her pulse point on her
