pulled back and furiously shook his head.
                  “I’ll have Nora’s head for this breach,” he said.
                  As Michael seized her arm, she let him lead her towards the door, but before he could push her out and lay the blame on the redhead’s back, Lily whipped back into the room, bunching his silk shirt between her fingers as she spoke.
                  “Don’t be mad at Nora,” she said. “I go where I want to.”
                  Michael’s chuckle was dark as he fingered her arms and brought his touch to her flushed face.
                  “I get that about you,” he said. “Walters said you were fearless.”
                  “Absolutely,” Lily assured him. “So you have nothing to worry--”
                  “But I do,” he said. “I have.”
                  Michael’s lips moved close to hers, and she was ready to accept his kiss when he pulled back and hung his head.
                  “Miss Vasquez…”
                  “Lily,” she whispered. “I want us to be friends.”
                  “Just friends?” he asked as he caressed her face and breathed into her eyes. Lily moaned at the feel of his warm breath wafting into her eyes, and she blinked past any fear as she wrapped her nervous arms around his neck.
                  “Or more,” she said. “I can take care of myself. And you.”
                  Lily held her tongue as she watched his eyes dart in every direction. His gaze finally came to rest around her eyes, and Lily waited for him to speak when he fell into her body and drew her closer.
                  “Prove it,” he said in a flat voice. Lily felt the power surging through her veins like a sweet shock, and she pushed him to the floor and stood panting around his thighs.
                  “I can,” she assured him. “Nothing I ever showed Walters, but…”
                  Lily’s voice fell off as he reached for her hand and pulled her to his heaving chest. Moaning into his breath bouncing against her breasts, Lily savored the sensation and sighed as she found his hand and dragged it close to her face.
                  “You could still leave,” he said.
                  “Is that what you really want?” Lily asked.
                  Michael stayed silent as he fingered her flesh, and Lily moaned as she clutched his face. Mr. Bingham tried to turn away, but Lily wouldn’t let him go as she leaned down and nearly met his lips.
                  “Is that what you want?” she repeated.
                  “No,” he said. “And I usually get what I want, Lily.”
                  Her soul buzzed around the sound of her name leaving his lips, and she started to kiss him when Michael pulled back and shook his head.
                  “But I don’t want you in the middle of---”
                  “And I want to be here,” she said. “With you. I can make everything alright.”
                  Her lips slowly parted around his, and Lily leaned in to the feel of his tongue mingling with hers. The taste of scotch tinged with mint raced down her throat, and she moved closer to his mouth when he pressed her to the ground and lightly gripped her arms.
                  “You’re making this hard for me,” he said. “I can’t help but want---”
                  “Good,” Lily said. “Keep doing that. I want you, too.”
                  Lily accepted his kiss, adoring the feel of how soft he felt against her mouth. She reached around his back and started to press him close when he stunned her with a quick push of his arms against hers as he lingered above her lips.
                  “This is a risk,” he said. “If
