Grayson arrived at The Capital Grille fifteen minutes early, securing their usual corner booth and ordering a whiskey. The restaurant hummed with quiet power and dark wood, leather, the kind of establishment where deals were closed and secrets were kept. Where wealthy businesspeople congregated, not always the honest ones.

His Velvet Room phone sat heavy in his pocket. He'd resisted texting Red for the last few hours, wanting to save the anticipation for tonight. T

    "Stop thinking," he said against her, his breath hot against her pussy. "Just feel."The taste of her flooded his mouth, sweet and musky, and it took every ounce of control he possessed not to devour her like he wanted to. Not to grip her thighs hard enough to leave bruises, not to push her legs wider and hold them there, pinned open for him while he fucked her with his tongue until she was sobbing his name.But he couldn't. Not yet.So, he kept his grip gentle, controlled, even as his cock throbbed painfully in his trousers, even as everything in him screamed to take, to claim, to dominate. He suppressed his need.He worked her slowly, his tongue tracing patterns over her clit, circling it, never quite giving her the direct pressure he knew she needed. Teasing. Building. Her hips shifted restlessly beneath him, seeking more, and fuck, he loved that. Loved the way her body was already learning to chase pleasure, even if she wasn't experienced. Her body knew what to do.She was trembli

    Wedding NightThe hotel suite was beautiful. All cream walls and soft lighting and a huge king-sized bed that dominated the room like an accusation.Prue stood at the window, still in her wedding dress, watching the lights of Savannah spread out below. Her reflection stared back at her from the glass.Behind her, she could see Nate reflected in the glass as well as her moving around the suite. She watched as he shrugged out of his jacket. Heard the clink of his watch hitting the dresser. This was how normal married couples acted but nothing was normal.They were married now. Husband and wife. And in a few minutes, they'd...Her stomach twisted.She pressed one hand flat against the cool glass, trying to steady herself. This was ridiculous. They'd already done this. In that cave in Papua New Guinea, with the rain hammering outside and the danger still fresh in her mind. That should have been harder, more awkward. But somehow it hadn't been.Maybe because it had been different somehow…

    Because that was the real prize, wasn’t it? The millions of dollars Nate refused to touch, sitting in an account like a promise waiting to be fulfilled. Money that could buy the life Trish had always deserved. The penthouse in Manhattan, the summer house in the Hamptons, the winters in Aspen. All of it within reach if she could just get Nate to see reason.And when Paul kicked the bucket, and the old bastard had a bad heart, everyone knew it, then all his money as well. She’d heard him on the phone with his lawyer. Mama was to get a nice little settlement, enough to keep her comfortable. But the bulk of the Young portfolio was going to Nate. Everything. The real estate, the investments, the offshore accounts Paul thought were so clever.Trish hadn’t told Mama. Why would she? Natasha would only spend it on more plastic surgery and younger men. No, Trish had laid the groundwork to get Nate for herself. To get everything that should have been hers from the moment her mother married into

    Nate’s eyes found hers as she walked down the short aisle on her father’s arm. Desire flickered across his face, making her cheeks heat. They hadn’t made love in the four weeks since their meeting. Nate had met with her father to ask for her hand in marriage before heading back to New York. He had a business to run.He looked good. Better than good. The suit fit him perfectly, made his shoulders look even broader, and for a moment she let herself imagine this was real. That he was standing there because he wanted her, not because of obligation.Her father placed her hand in Nate’s, and the warmth of his palm against hers steadied something inside her.The judge began speaking. Standard words about marriage and commitment and the joining of two lives. Prue heard them distantly, her focus on Nate’s face. He was watching her with that careful intensity she’d come to recognize, like he was trying to memorize every detail.“Do you, Nathaniel Young, take this woman to be your lawfully wedde

    Four weeks later, Prue stood in a small private room at the courthouse, staring at her reflection in the full-length mirror.The dress was simple. Off the rack from a bridal boutique in downtown Savannah, cream-colored silk that skimmed her body without clinging, with long sleeves and a modest neckline. Nothing like the elaborate gown she'd imagined wearing as a little girl. But booking a church wedding on a weekend at short notice had been impossible, and this was what they could manage. A Wednesday afternoon ceremony at the courthouse with a handful of witnesses. It also seemed silly wearing a white dress when she was pregnant. Oh, she knew the old rules didn't apply anymore, but to her it just felt wrong.She pressed one hand to her stomach. Still flat. Still nothing to see. But knowing what was there made everything feel rushed and how important it was to protect her baby. Not for the first time she worried if she was doing the right thing. Nate didn't love her."You look beautifu

    "Then what was it like? Because from my viewpoint, it felt like you couldn't get away from me fast enough.""I was trying to do the right thing." His voice was low, rough. "You deserved better than some fucked-up Marine with more baggage than future. You deserved a clean break. You had your whole life ahead of you. Fuck, Prue, you were a virgin.""You don't get to decide what I deserve or need." The tears were coming now and she hated them, hated showing him how much he'd hurt her. "And you especially don't get to make that decision for me and then disappear without a word. What you did was a shitty thing to do."He closed his eyes briefly. When he opened them, they were darker than she'd ever seen them. "You're right. I should have called. I should have—" He stopped. "I'm sorry."The apology hung between them.Prue wiped at her eyes with the back of her hand. "I'm not telling you this because I want something from you. I'm not trying to trap you or force you into anything. But you ha
