enhancement, to some degree. Hope would question his constant eating, not to mention the repercussions of using his system.
    Covering her hand with his, he met her surprised gaze before looking back at the road. With timid movements, he pressed her fingertips against the microchip at the back of his head. Instant regret stiffened his back.
    Would she think he’s a freak?
    His mind dismissed the thought a second later. Hope had the open mind of an innovator – hell, she was a visionary . She accepted the impossible, welcomed the unique.
    The knowledge didn’t keep his gut from knotting like a rope.
    Her fingers trailed over the small microchip with light, gentle flutters. The feel of her hand in his hair hardened his body, the urge to shut his eyes and groan ready for the slightest prompt.
    “What is it?” she said in a husky murmur.
    Her tender touch ignited a fire along his nape. It trailed down his spine in tendrils of arousal, licking at his base instincts, toying with a powerful need to pull over and take her in a rough, heated conquest.
    Clearing his throat, he resisted the urge to look her way. He couldn’t let her see how her touch affected him.
    “It’s a microchip that works with a capacitor system that stores electrical energy. Carbohydrates –“
    “Fuel the brain,” she said, her fingers massaging his scalp in luxurious circles, “which generates a lot of electricity.”
    Taking a right turn, he leaned back his head against her hand. “When I need it…” He cleared his throat, “the capacitor helps disburse energy through…”
    Damn, she needed to stop. She already had him nudging the fly of his jeans.
    “…uh, my central nervous system to my muscles. The increased acceleration gives me…” He cursed low in his throat. “…super strength.”
    Leaning close to get a better look, her lips brushed his hair, sending jarring tingles along his already heightened nerve endings.
    “That explains why you feel so… hard .” Stretching further, her breath felt hot on his ear, her scent, her voice enveloping him in pure, unadulterated lust.
    Shit . She had him so damned hot he glanced at the heated seat switch to make sure it wasn’t on.
    “What happens when you use the energy?” She inhaled deep, her nose brushing against his cheek, her palm trailing down his chest in a slow caress. Frowning, he forced himself to concentrate on the road and not on her hand playing just inches away from his crotch.
    “An incident like yesterday causes slight pain. My muscles tear and rebuild each time. There are other… complications with severe use.”
    Her hand stilled against his abdomen. “Define severe use?”
    “I don’t know, Les,” he said, with a one-shouldered shrug. “We didn’t test the system to that extreme.”
    Silence met his statement before she backed away a few millimeters. “Why didn’t you test it? Because it could be dangerous for you?”
    He pulled into the private drive of the elegant glass and stone home that overlooked the Pacific Ocean. Her anger puzzled him. She knew the risks associated with his job. His D.I.R.E. enhancement was a state-of-the-art, one-of-a-kind experiment. Who better to test it on than someone who had no one waiting for him at home?
    “You know my job is dangerous.”
    Her lips parted, disbelief glowing in her wide eyes. The mood, her hands on his body, everything just flew out the window like an errant kite.
    Dropping back in her seat, she stared out the windshield, her face a mask of stone. “What you’re saying is that you allowed them to give you an enhancement that could kill you.”
    What the hell did it matter to her? “Yes. It could kill me if I push it too far. But I have no intention of doing that. Besides, think of all the good I can do with it.”
    Shaking her head, she opened the passenger door and climbed out. “I think you got kicked in the head one too many times in the rodeo.”
    His mouth dropped open. Oh, hell no …
    Climbing out,
