Theodore Grey is a complicated man. More challenging than I could have imagined. The tabloids. They only see the surface. I seek to see beneath his layers. If he'll let me.

He told me were five minutes from our destination. He doesn't stop with the punches. The grin on his face is wider than I've seen since I met him.

I secretly watch him and my attention has been on his lips since we entered the car. While we haven't technically kissed. I wonder what those lips would feel like full force. I'm hit with thoughts of Theo undressed. Stripped naked. Pulsating. For me.

Theo is already out of the car and opening my door. "Shall we?"

I nod and place my had in his and leads me to the elevator. He stands up against my side and flicks floor number fifteen. His knuckles run the length of my jaw. I have no choice but to shiver as my insides become liquid heat.

"Where are we?" I ask.

He raises a slick eyebrow, bounces on his feet and chuckles. "We are going to be taste testers for a newly planned restaurant."
