Assassin's Honor (55 page)

           
"I didn't say I wouldn't go to the caves--"

           
"I know, but then I remembered that dagger I read at White Cloud."

           
"Dagger?
When the hell were you going to tell me you'd touched more just than the Sicari Lord coin at the estate?"

           
"I was waiting for the right moment," she said with a bewitching smile.

           
She lowered her head and her mouth caressed his shoulder. A second later, his cock jumped as an unseen hand stroked him. Deus, but the woman had a wicked touch. He groaned with pleasure, and soft laughter bubbled out of her.

           
"You're enjoying yourself, aren't you?" she whispered.

           
"Yes," he rasped as desire coiled through his limbs.

           
"Would you change your mind about Rome if I told you I saw Lysander's twin in my vision?"

           
"No. I wouldn't," he growled.

           
He barely processed her words as her invisible caress drove everything out of his head but her. The warmth of her unseen hand slid up over his erection then rubbed across the ridge of him. He groaned from the pleasure of it. The pressure on his rod intensified as she slowly straddled him. She stretched her body backward with his hard length brushing up against the seat of her. His gut wrenched as he watched an invisible force guide his cock into her, and then she came forward to sink down on top of him. The sensation pulled a shout from him.

           
"Do you think I'll be able to change your mind eventually?" she whispered as she bent over him.

           
"No, but I sure as hell don't want you to stop trying, carissima," he rasped.

           
"I love you, Ares," she whispered. And just before she pushed him over the edge to that place only she could take him, he realized she'd get her way. They'd be going to Rome. It was only a matter of time.
