His lie came easily to his lips as he told her, "I've never wanted any one as much as I've wanted you. Please Nicole, just one night, and I will give you the world. Anything you ask for I would give to be with you for one night."

Just as she was about to protest again, he placed a finger over her lips to stop her.

"I'll give you three days to think about it. To plan, to make time to be with me because I know you want this as much as I want it."

"I don't want any ties to you. You don't understand me."

"I understand you want me." His lips brushed teasingly against hers. "I can feel your need, I can smell your lust, and I can taste your passion." This time when he pulled her in to kiss her, his tongue explored her mouth to the fullest driving her senses insane. "Three days," he whispered leaving her breathless.

Nicole whimpered, "Alright, three days," she agreed.

He released her and turned around to start up the vehicle. They drove in tense silence to where they had first met. He occasionally glanced at her to see she was deep in thought.

When they arrived at their destination, she took a deep breath as he turned off the motor. "I want you to know, I take care of my sick grandmother when I am not at work. She means a lot to me and I can't imagine a world without her, but she's dying because her heart is weak. I told you all of this because if after three days I refuse, I don't want you to think it's because of you, or age or your color. Choosing between her health status and you wouldn't be hard. I'd choose her."
