how I feel about you right now. Fantasy or reality, maybe she was both. And maybe he didn’t care any longer. “You remember. I see it all over your face.” Alana slipped away from him but she didn’t head for the door as he’d feared.
    Instead she threw herself down on his king- sized bed. “Fine. I know who you are. I couldn’t really believe it but there’s no denying it in this light. Look at all your damn red hair. Least you ditched the braces.”
    “It’s more brown.” He’d always been sensitive about his hair. Old holdover from when red hair, braces and freckles— most of which had thankfully faded with time— had singled him out as the class dork.
    She sighed. “So why are you hanging out at Kink, Nicky? Trying to make up for lost time?”
    He pushed aside the pillows and sat against the headboard. With her gorgeous golden legs inches away, he was having a hard time focusing. Even her freaking kneecaps turned him on. Worse, he knew exactly what lurked under her ridiculously short skirt, bare and waiting. And wet.
    She lifted her brows. “Well? I know it was your first time.” When he gaped at her, she laughed. “Not that first time. At Kink. So why were you there? The Nicky I knew wouldn’t have deigned to step into such a classless environment.”
    “Lack of class wasn’t what worried me. I’d rank diseases and the possibility of arrest much higher.”
    Her eyes smirked at him. “Let me guess. You’re writing a story. An exposé on the seedy underbelly of Ely, Maryland.”
    It never occurred to him to lie. He wasn’t hardwired that way. Besides, if he wanted to continue this with her, she had to know who he really was. “Not an exposé. Just a piece for the Lifestyle section of the Tribune .” The more he talked, the wider her eyes became. “I won’t use your name.”
    “Good God, you’re really narcing on the club?”
    “I’m not narcing. I’m reporting. Vital difference.”
    “You know full well what will happen if there’s press coverage. My friends go there. What if Kelly gets caught because you decide to try to win a Pulitzer?” He didn’t know whether to laugh or sneer.
    “You really think they hand out Pulitzers for articles about traveling sex clubs? And you said in the car it was Kelly’s first time there tonight. At your request.” He shook his head. “She was always smart, except when it came to you. You could’ve led her off a cliff and she would’ve jumped eagerly.”
    “She’s my best friend. I love her. I wouldn’t ever do anything to hurt her.”
    “Except leave her alone in a sex club while you ran after your lover.” Sexy dark eyes flashed warningly.
    “You obviously haven’t changed one iota since high school.”
    He shrugged. Baiting her was fun. Who knew? “Looks like you haven’t either, sweetheart.”
    She jumped off the bed but before she’d taken a step, he snagged her wrist and pulled her back. This time her seat was his lap. “We’re not finished here.”
    “That’s what you think.” She blew a thick curl in his face as she fought to break free. Her generous curves obviously hid strong muscles. “Dammit, let me go. Or you’re going to be singing soprano in about two seconds.”
    “Nah.” He finally wrestled her arms behind her back. “Pretty sure you’d rather take advantage of me again before you render me useless.”
    “Don’t flatter yourself.”
    “I have to. God knows you won’t.” The more she struggled, the harder he got. All her wriggling definitely wasn’t helping. “Besides, we both know you’re just getting wetter the more you fight.”
    When color fired on cheeks he’d doubted ever blushed, he knew he’d hit his target.
    “I’m just horny. It’s not you. It could’ve been anyone.”
    He smiled pleasantly. “What makes you think it’s not the same for me?”
    “Because we both know it’s not. You had this stupid thing for me. I don’t know why. You and Kelly, now that would’ve made sense. You
