    “Yes.” Oh, she most certainly would. She was so close to achieving her goal she could almost taste it. She would soon have her parents’ killer within her grasp.
    The other line went dead as he hung up on her. Katya slowly replaced the receiver and strode back to her room. Once she was safely tucked away inside and her pack and crossbow stowed, she pulled down the blinds and closed the drapes. She needed to reread her files, but that would have to wait.
    Her hands were shaking so hard, it took her twice as long as usually to get undressed. Yanking back the covers, she crawled into the soft bed, her body sinking into the feather mattress. Moaning in pleasure, she pulled the covers over her head to shut out all light and noise.
    Sleep crept over her like a lover’s caress. It seemed to start at her toes and work its way to the top of her head. A deep sigh escaped her as she surrendered to its lure.

    He came to her, like the first rays of sun in the morning, strong and powerful, ensnaring her, tempting her. His hair was loose around his shoulders, the sun reflecting off the light brown, showing highlights of blond in the mix. His eyes were as pale as the blue sky behind him. He had a roman nose, aristocratic and straight. His forehead was high, his jaw firm. A light dusting of stubble on his chin only added to his appeal. He was perfect, except for a one-inch scar just below his left eye. It seemed such a shame to mar such male perfection, yet it added to his masculine allure.
    This was no pretty boy, but a man.
    Chase was naked, exposing bronzed shoulders so wide they blocked out the light when he bent over her. It was only then she realized she was naked as well and stretched across the rock in their mountain meadow. He braced himself over her, the muscles in his arms rippling.

    Every cell in her body was screaming at her to join with this man. She parted her thighs and tilted her hips, wanting to feel him there. Her sex was swollen and wet with need and an ache started throbbing deep within her, an emptiness that only he could fill.
    “No,” she groaned. She couldn’t allow herself to want or need anyone. Not now.
    Not with her goal so close. She would not, could not, be distracted or swayed from her path.
    “Yes,” he countered, pressing his lower body against hers.

    Chase stroked his cock over her damp folds. Heat swelled, rippling through her core, and a craving for more filled her. She wanted him so badly her teeth ached. This time when he pushed his erection against her, she opened herself to it, accepting his right to do so.
