man.”
    “What the hell are you talking about?”
    Kate flinched at his sharp words.
    “Kate,” he said more softly, “I really don’t know what you mean. Why do you think I sold you to someone?”
    “Your friend…the hostess…”
    “Ileana?”
    She nodded. “She told me it was part of the role-playing that evening. That you had arranged for me to submit to a man named Victor.”
    “Was that the man you disappeared with that night?” he asked with gritted teeth.
    She nodded again.
    “What did he do?” Matt’s voice was nearly a growl.
    “He…took me to a room. Like a cell with stone walls. It was in the basement of the big house where the party was.”
    “Did he hurt you?” Matt’s dark blue eyes blazed with anger, but she knew it wasn’t at her, and confusion swirled through her.
    She nodded. Then she couldn’t look at him anymore. Despite her swirling emotions, the indignation in his eyes made her insides churn. Oh, God, could she have been wrong about Matt’s involvement? But both Ileana and Victor had confirmed that Matt had set up the whole thing. And Ileana was Matt’s friend. Why would she lie?
    “Kate, believe me, I would never have allowed such a thing if I had known. That night, Ileana spirited you away to show you the house, then other than seeing you dance briefly with that man, I didn’t see you again. Ileana told me you left with him.”
    “No, he chained me up. He…” She shook her head, unwilling to think about it again. “Ileana arranged a ride for me afterward. She told me you’d left already.”
    His blue eyes turned icy. “That lying little…” He mumbled the final word, then turned to her. The cold blaze of anger in his eyes turned to warmth as he gazed at her. “Kate, believe me. Whatever happened to you that evening, it had nothing to do with me. I promise you that. And if I’d known about it, I would have killed the bastard.” He practically growled the last words.
    She sucked in a breath at the sincerity in his voice. Could it be true? Had she been wrong all this time? Her heart ached at the possibility.
    He reached out to her and she hesitated, then placed her hand in his. It was so big and strong. So comforting.
    “Come here, Kate.” He drew her forward and swept her into his arms. His embrace was heaven on earth.
    She felt safe cocooned there, close to his solid body, his hand stroking her hair. Tears fell from her eyes and she found herself sobbing against his chest. Releasing all the pent-up pain that had been deep inside her for two years now.
    “So that’s why you left?” His voice was stiff and constrained. “You thought I was some kind of monster?”
