He called her as soon as he got into his office. “I am afraid I have to cancel on tonight.”
“Oh no,” she sounded genuinely sorry and he only wished it was for the right reason. “What’s wrong?”
“A meeting I can’t get out of,” he told her, his voice distant.
“So come on over when the meeting is through, I’ll wait up for you,” her voice was cajoling and he almost weakened.

Leonie was not sleeping and she knew he was not sleeping as well. She could hear the steady beating of his heart against her skin and wondered what he was thinking. She had been doing a lot of thinking herself and she kept replaying Simoniel’s words inside her head. What if he wanted more? When he had called and told her that he would not be able to see her she had panicked and had found herself desperate to see him. What does that mean? She could not afford to be in love with him because that lead to nothing good and she had no intention of nursing a broken heart when it came to naught, she was in it for the incredible s*x and that was that.
