Desire Part Two (The Desire Series Book 2) by Ava Alexia Page A

to get into an explanation about her relationship with Whit with Jaime. Not that Jaime would judge her. Jaime had entered into a sex only relationship with Jules; and it had turned out pretty good. She was now married to the man. But she didn’t know if she was hoping for the same conclusion with Whit. She had to admit that she enjoyed being with him and the sex was off the chain. She was practically insatiable when she was in his company. She had trouble keeping her hands off of him and he was the same way with her. They had even had sex in his office which was dangerous in the extreme. But the risk of getting caught was exhilarating and it only served to increased their need for one another. Their climax had been outstanding. Maddie smiled at the memory and looked forward to when she would see him tonight. They were planning to dine out but it was after dinner that she was most anticipating. She had the feeling the he shared those same raunchy sentiments. She stood and moved into her bedroom then crossed to her walk in closet. Upon entering she couldn’t help but remember her encounter with Whit here. She’d been in the closet doing the same thing that she was doing now; deciding what to wear. He’d had taken a shower and came to stand in the doorway dripping wet and nude. She’d sucked in her breath at the sight of his tall, masculine and muscular frame. Needless to say all thoughts of clothing went out the window. She’d run to him and he caught her and lifted her from the floor. She wrapped her legs about his waist and their sexual adventure had begun. That had been an exquisite encounter and she wasn’t ashamed to say that she wanted many more just like it. She turned her mind to the task at hand and selected a short, form fitting red dress. The dress was strapless and fitted her perfectly. He would be hard pressed to keep his hands off of her. This was just the reaction she was hoping for. She laid the dress out on her bed and then went into the bathroom the bathe. As she was coming out of her bath her phone rang. She wrapped a large fluffy towel around her as she ran to answer the insistent ring. She picked up her cell and saw it was Whit.
    “Hi, Whit. What’s up?”
    “Maddie, I have to cancel for tonight. Something has come up,” he said hurriedly.
    “Okay, but you sound upset. Is something wrong?” she asked in concern.
    “No. I just have to attend to something. It can’t be put off,” he said abruptly.
    “Alright. I hope it all works out,” she offered kindly.
    “I’ll see you later,” he said.
    He hung up leaving Maddie staring at her phone in bewilderment.

    “Now that wasn’t so bad, was it?”
    Whit turned to face the beautiful blond woman languidly lounging on his tan leather chaise. Her long shapely legs were artfully posed as she held a delicate flute of champagne in her hand. She raised the glass slowly to her lips for a sip. Here dark brown eyes never left his tense face. 
    “What do you want, Raquel?” Whit snapped.
    “Really darling, why so touchy? It’s not as though this hasn’t happened before. We always find our way back to one another sooner or later,” Raquel purred.
    “I’m not in the market for a fling with you, Raquel. Things have changed,” he said unfeelingly.
    Raquel Fleming flinched inwardly. This was unexpected. She had not thought that he would reject her visit. They’ve had an understanding for years and she took it for granted that their arrangement still stood. But he seemed different. Distant. Distracted. Clearly unaffected and disinterested in her. Could it be that another woman had finally snagged his heart? If so, it was crucial that she send her packing. Raquel had plans for Whit that did not include another woman.
    “But I’m in the market for one with you,” she countered. Whit turned away from her in anger. “Come now, Whit. We’ve always dealt quite well together. Surely nothing so drastic had occurred to change
