He turns to look at me.His green gaze is deep, but the insane intensity is gone."Yes, I can be.But I have to tell you the truth ...about thunder."I see truth and honesty in his eyes.He's let his guard down."It gets such a bad rap."He winks.

Damn, that wink is killer!

"Do you know what causes thunder?"

"No."

"Thunder is a direct result of lightning.It isn't a warning of danger at all.It's more a result."

"That's interesting.So lightning first, then thunder."

"That's affirmative."

I look away, thinking about that, then look back and ask."What causes your thunder?What's your lightning?"

He raises his eyebrows at me and smirks.

Oh!Of course.I chuckle then bump his arm."So...what were you thinking when my cookie-eating turned into lightning?"

"I was resisting that powerful primal urge that wells up inside me."He grins."My thunder."

I grin."I got that.What were you thinking?"

"I thought that I needed to control myself, or I would lose the only chance I would have of winning the heart of this beautiful little dancer named Seary who was sitting directly in front of me, teasing me terribly."

"I got that too.What were you thinking?"

He grins at me and shakes his head, not wanting to say what he was thinking, but I shake mine too."I won't be denied.I want to know."

"Damn, woman."He takes a breath and confesses."I was thinking about snatching you up by your beautiful headful of hair, ripping your pants off you, slamming your petite dancer body down on the counter, and fucking you with all the thunder I possess."He smirks, then finds his fork, picks it up, and eats.

CHAPTERTHIRTEEN

I stare at him with my poker face on, not letting on how I feel about this revelation.

"Eat, Wild Thang.Don't be angry.You insisted, and I was honest."

I pick up my fork but push my food around.He watches me out of the corner of his eye, then he puts his fork down and pinches my chin, turning my face to him."I would never harm you, Siri."

Gosh, that was so sincere and sweet.

"I know that, Aurei.Truthfully, I was initially scared.The look on your face."I shake my head in disbelief."In all my Vegas experience with sex, I've never seen anyone look like that before.The intensity was frightening.But I realized too that I was turned on."

He smiles, and his eyes are soft."I know.I would never harm you.Spank you?Maybe.But only if you're being a brat."

I smirk, surprised that his Dom reference turns me on even more.But damn, it does."I wanted you to fuck me."

"I know."He kisses my lips.

"I would have let you."

"You didn't hear me, My Every Thang.I wasn't thinking of asking.I was thinking of taking."He pushes his hand up into my hair and studies my face with thunderous intensity.I feel his power manifesting into his magnetism, and I realize what exactly he meant.

I frown."If you would have 'taken' me and I had struggled, would you have raped me?"

He smiles gently as he rubs my ear with his thumb.The feeling is relaxing."No, Baby Thang.I have never, and would never, take what isn't willingly offered, but I'm not always gentle, and that night I wouldn't have been."

I look away, then close my eyes and lean in on his hand."You had a lot of pent-up penis pressure needing my sweet little pussy to pound?"
