But the small part of her, the part that wanted to wrap herself in this man and never resurface, spoke up. “Deal” Gema held out her hand to shake and he chuckled, stepping close to her, his eyes hooded by heavy lids. “In my country, we do a little more than just shake on it” His hand grasped hers and yanked her into him, and Gema gasped in surprise as she landed against his hard chest.
