Part II 6(15/23)

places it over my dress. He pauses, and stares at me for a

moment, drinking me in. I’m in the basque and matching

panties, and I revel in his sensuous gaze.

“You know, Anastasia,” he says softly as he stalks

toward me, undoing his bow tie so it hangs from either side

of his neck, then undoing the top three buttons of his shirt.

“I was so mad when you bought my auction lot. All
