look that Christian is giving me. It takes all my self-restraint
not to leap on him right here, in the back seat of the car.
Oh, the back seat of the car . . . hmm. My inner
goddess strokes her chin gently in quiet contemplation.
“Hi,” I breathe, my mouth dry.
“What would you like to do this evening?”
“I thought you said we had plans.”
“Oh, I know what I’d like to do, Anastasia. I’m asking
you what you want to do.”
I beam at him.
