smiled. Senator Robbins was a notoriously upright, rule-following annoyance. Never looked at a

woman besides his wife, let alone flirted with one. But here he was, completely taken by Sabrina’s

charms. If she did nothing else, breaking this Senator’s will would be worth all the trouble he’d gone

through to get her under his control.

“Now, now, Sabrina,” the senator was saying. “You shouldn’t say such things to an old codger

like me.”

“Nonsense, Senator,” Sabrina said, running her fingers up to his tie and under his collar. “How

could I not tell you how I really felt?” She pouted prettily and he laughed.

“I can’t—” The senator stopped when he saw Damian approaching. “Where have you been hiding

this pretty thing, Damian?” He held out his hand and grinned as if he were drunk. He glanced back at

Sabrina’s ample cleavage and licked his upper lip. “If I’d have known you kept such . . . charming

company, I’d have come to one of your parties earlier.”

Damian shook the senator’s hand like an old friend. “Miles, I can’t share my secrets with those

who refuse to work with me.”

The senator guffawed. “Well, if it gets me closer to Sabrina here, I can say I’m certainly more

intrigued by your earlier proposal. Why don’t you come by my office next week? Say, Tuesday

morning and we’ll talk it through again.”

Damian beamed. “I look forward to it.” They shook hands and he wrapped his arm around

Sabrina’s waist. He led her away toward one of several French doors that opened onto the paved

patio, kept warm by gas heaters.

“You’re doing exceptional work tonight, Sabrina.” He pulled her into his arms and kissed her

neck. “I’ve been trying to get through to that bastard for years.” He nuzzled her neck. “You’ve done it

in one night.”

“Thank you, Master.” She leaned into his embrace. “My only desire is to please you.”

“You do it so well.” He nipped at her earlobe and she giggled and dug her fingers into his upper

arm.

“I will reward you tonight,” he murmured and then pulled away. “What would you like?”

She bit her lip and instantly he could feel what she wanted: Terric behind her, ripping into her

body and giving of herself to him. Damian smiled. “I love that you only want to please me.”

“Pleasing you gives me the most pleasure, Master.”
