couldn’t help feeling relieved. “I thought you’d be pleased to see me, and it seemed like a good idea to discuss last night’s meeting with Armando in person so that we could iron out any problems that might have arisen last night.” It wasn’t problems that rose, it was Armando himself. She quickly pushed the errant thought from her mind.
     
    Zoe felt her face go flaming red and had to make a conscious effort to keep the tremor from her voice. “Yes. Good idea. I guess I’ll see you shortly.” They said their goodbyes and disconnected the call and Zoe belatedly realized that she was stood in the middle of the bedroom dripping wet and stark naked. She rushed to pull an appropriate suit out of the closet, pulling the clothes on hastily before drying her hair and applying the minimum of makeup.
     
    With just minutes to spare she made her way down to the lobby and had just reached the main door as Dawson’s car pulled up to the curb. She gave a steadying breath as she watched the driver open the door and Dawson step out into the Geneva sunshine, looking as handsome and cool as ever.
     
    “As prompt as ever I see, Zoe.” Dawson reached her and leaned down to brush a kiss on her cheek; his stubble grazing her skin and sending a shiver of awareness running through her. “Have you had breakfast yet?”
     
    Not unless you count a bottle of champagne at three o’clock this morning breakfast, Zoe thought to herself. She realized that she actually was hungry though and her stomach gave a growl of agreement. “No not yet, Dawson.”
     
    “Good. We can discuss your meeting while we eat.” Dawson led the way back into the hotel and they walked towards the restaurant area where the muffled sounds of other hotel patrons eating and talking greeted them. They were shown to a table where Dawson ordered a full continental breakfast and Zoe ordered cereal with fresh fruit. The thought of anything more turned her stomach and she was grateful when Dawson ordered a pot of coffee to go with their meal. They made small talk while they ate with nothing being brought up regarding Zoe’s meeting with Armando the previous night, much to her relief. That didn’t mean that it wasn’t on Zoe’s mind, however, and she couldn’t help the pang of guilt she felt when she thought about what had happened between her and Armando just a few short hours earlier.
     
    Dawson had always been perceptive though, and he could see that something was playing on her mind even though she was doing her best to hide the fact. “What’s going on, Zoe?”
     
    She visibly jumped at his question. “What do you mean?”
     
    “I mean what’s on your mind? You haven’t been yourself this morning, and trying to get any kind of conversation out of you is like trying to get blood out of a stone right now.”
     
    Zoe sighed and placed her napkin on the table. She should have known that she couldn’t keep anything from Dawson, and in all honesty she didn’t want to keep it from him. There was a very strong chance that she had gone and screwed up any likelihood of Armando wanting anything to do with Dawson’s company now. And in retrospect she probably shouldn’t have snuck from his room this morning because that gave the completely wrong message that she was ashamed of what had happened between them. And, if she had ruined any business opportunities, Dawson was going to find out anyway. She needed to man up and tell him first to try and lessen the blow if possible.
     
    “The meeting with Armando went well I think, Dawson. He definitely seemed interested in your proposal.” She took a deep breath while she tried to formulate the words she needed to say.
     
    “Well that’s a good thing, isn’t it?” Dawson’s voice held curiosity and just a little bit of confusion. “If things went so well then why are you so tense right now?”
     
    She took a deep breath. It was now or never. “The thing is Dawson, Armando and I spent the night together
