s him, letting my
fingers explore. Christian keeps his hand over mine, hiding
my bold fingers, while his thumb skates softly over the
nape of my neck. His mouth opens as he gasps softly, and
it’s the only reaction I can see to my inexperienced touch.
But it means so much. He wants me. Everything south of
my na一vel contracts. This is becoming unbearable.
A week by Lake Adriana in Montana is the final lot for
auction. Of course Mr. and Dr. Grey ha一ve a house in
Montana, and the bidding escalates rapidly, but I am
Montana, and the bidding escalates rapidly, but I am
barely aware of it. I feel him growing beneath my fingers,
and it makes me feel so powerful.
“Sold, for one hundred ten thousand dollars!” the MC
declares victoriously. The whole room bursts into
applause, and reluctantly I follow as does Christian, ruining
our fun.
He turns to me and his lips twitch. “Ready?” he mouths
over the rapturous cheering.
“Yes,” I mouth back
“Ana!” Mia calls. “It’s time!”
What? No. Not again! “Time for what?”
“The First Dance Auction. Come on!” She stands and
holds out her hand.
I glance at Christian who is, I think, scowling at Mia,
and I don’t know whether to laugh or cry, but it’s laughter
that wins. I succumb to a cathartic bubble of schoolgirl
giggles, as we are thwarted once more by the tall, pink
powerhouse that is Mia Grey. Christian peers at me, and
after a beat, there’s a ghost of a smile on his lips.
“The first dance will be with me, okay? And it won’t
be on the dance floor,” he murmurs lasciviously into my
ear. My giggles subside as anticipation fans the flames of
my need. Oh, yes! My inner goddess performs a perfect
triple Salchow in her ice skates.
“I look forward to it.” I lean over and plant a soft,
chaste kiss on his mouth. Glancing around, I realize that
our fellow guests at the table are astonished. Of course,
they’ve never seen Christian with a date before.
He smiles broadly at me. And he looks . . . happy.
He smiles broadly at me. And he looks . . . happy.
