breaths as he moved within her. The intimacy of it was intoxicating. “I was…”
    “A moment of madness.”
    He’d taken the words from her head. “Yes.”
    “Perhaps, I thought that.” He pulled a brief kiss. “For a short time. But then what you wanted, the reality of you up against a wall, wrapped around me.” He stroked into her, harder, faster, the fierce thrusts angled just right, driving against her clit and the hot ache of her flesh deepened. “I tried to find you.”
    Adela stared at him, her heart in her throat, her release teetering. His mouth took hers in a hard kiss that had her thoughts spinning and the fire in her veins a white flare. The shock of her release promised to take her. Hard.
    “I didn’t stop. I never stopped.”
    Joy snapped through Adela. Savage, white hot and she bucked against him, wanting him to follow her, needing him to be as wild as she, to lose himself in her. Marcus groaned before he covered her mouth, devouring her as he fucked her through the final pulses of her orgasm and finding his own.
    He crushed her to him, his mouth breaking away to bury his face against her damp neck. He growled her name, a fierce prayer. His long, slow release of breath stirred her skin and Adela squeezed around his still-hard dick, unable to resist a provocative little wiggle.
    Marcus stilled and drew his face away from her skin. His eyes narrowed and his mouth had thinned, but there was something, a spark of humor, a lightness that lifted her own heart. He’d looked for her. She winced.
    “I hid.”
    He blinked. “Hid?”
    “I worked on the hulks mining the Rosette Nebula. Was the ship’s advocate.” She drew a line along the edge of his shirt collar, her fingertip stroking the smooth skin of his neck. “I ran before you could rip apart my career.”
    He stilled her hand at his throat, his fingers closing around hers. “You thought that was what I had planned?” His smile was wry. “I’m…me. Of course you did.” He lifted her palm to his mouth and brushed a kiss against her skin. She shivered and his smile was sharp. “No one escapes me.”
    “And now?” She willed her gaze to pull away from the sharp blue of his eyes and glanced to the two slumped men. “Idaeus.”
    “They found me six months ago. They offered me power and privilege.” His smile was shark-bright and Adela’s flesh tightened at the stark beauty, the power he already held. “Idaeus didn’t know me very well then.”
    He rolled his hips and she moved with him, smooth and slow. Sparks of fresh desire chased under her skin and she looped her arms around his neck, enjoyed the intimacy as his delicious voice wrapped around her. “As if I needed that.” His mouth brushed hers. “They didn’t have the required energy. Idaeus had been drifting for a very long time. I provided some, but I refused to fuck indiscriminately. Then they offered you.”
    Adela blinked. “Me?”
    “Idaeus found you and brought you into the firm with a job you couldn’t refuse.” His darkened eyes held her. “You took the risk because you thought—with the intervening years—I would forget you.” He let out a slow breath and his teeth caught in her bottom lip before he deepened the slow kiss. His broke away and his forehead touched hers. “I didn’t.”
    “You did this…for me?” Her heart twisted, a shock of pain in her chest. She pressed her lips together to deny tears. She swallowed. “Marcus…”
    “You need to wash and dress.” His thumb brushed her cheek and a soft smile lifted his mouth. “The pyramid holds Idaeus’ essence. I’d prefer somewhere private when I bond with them.”
    Adela closed her eyes as Marcus eased from her. Her feet touched the carpeted floor and she wrapped her arms around him. “I’m sorry.” She breathed in his scent as his arms enfolded her. It was her fault. She’d run. If she hadn’t…
    “If you hadn’t, I would only have one lifetime with you.” He kissed her tangled hair.
