Midnight Sins by Lora Leigh Page A

was simply too
    addictive to deny.
    It seemed more a dream than reality.
    On the drive from the airport to Rafer’s hotel in
    the four-wheel drive he’d had waiting for him, the
    blizzard raged around them, at times so heavy it
    seemed to surround them in their own little world.
    Once they reached his room—
    Cami’s breath caught in sharp remembrance.
    Sensation tore through her, clenching in the depths of
    her newly awakened flesh, her clit throbbing.
    Tearing herself away from him had been all but
    impossible. As she flagged down a cab and stepped
    inside, she still couldn’t believe she had actually
    managed to do it.
    He had to have been exhausted.
    No, that wasn’t it.
    With a heavy heart she admitted the truth.
    He’d pretended to sleep and he’d allowed her to
    slip away.
    And she was too big a coward to even guess
    why.

    Rafe watched Cami slide into the cab, saw her gaze
    lift to the window where he stood carefully behind the
    curtain and narrowed his eyes on her thoughtfully.
    He’d let her leave. Everything inside his soul had
    demanded he hold on to her, that he tighten his arms
    around her and fuck her until she was too damned
    tired to try to slip from him while she thought he slept.
    But what was the point? If not now, she would
    have slipped out later. While he showered. Perhaps
    while he met with Logan and Crowe at the lawyer’s
    office. There was no way to hold Cami if she didn’t
    want to be held, and Rafe knew it.
    And she was simply too damned scared of what
    had happened between them not to run.
    Blowing out a hard breath, he looked around the
    hotel room, then finally focused on the incriminating
    stain on the sheets.
    Cami had been a virgin.
    His throat tightened at the proof of her innocence,
    at the knowledge that he had been the first to touch
    her so intimately. That he had been first to possess
    the liquid heat and fist-tight depths of her pussy.
    The first to hear her cries of completion.
    Instantly, furiously, his dick was spike hard, the
    head throbbing in renewed hunger. Perhaps it was a
    good thing she had slipped out so early, because
    fucking her into complete screaming submission had
    been all he could have thought of. Logan and Crowe
    would have had to drag him from the room.
    All these years, along with his cousins, he had
    fought to hold on to what was his. Not just the property
    their parents had left to them but also the cash that
    had been frozen in their accounts since the day the
    Callahan brothers and their wives had been killed.
    Fourteen years. He and his cousins had been
    fighting for their inheritance for twelve years and there
    were times he swore it was a battle that wouldn’t be
    won until the Corbins, Robertses, and Raffertys were
    dead.But, as imperative as this appointment was, as
    crucial to their case as it was, still, he didn’t know if he
    could have forced himself away from Cami long
    enough to have made it on time. She did something
    to his brain. He couldn’t help it. She managed to get
    under his skin and made it damned impossible to
    think of anything but touching her once she had stood
    up from that table and he’d seen all the hunger filling
    her eyes.
    He’d fought it. God knew, he’d been fighting it at
    least for the past three years. Each time he’d seen
    her since she had turned eighteen, once a year, it had
    ended in a kiss. A kiss that had nearly flamed out of
    control last year. She was like this fire he couldn’t
    resist because when he was with her, he found the
    cold that usually encased him becoming heated and
    warm.Admitting to it now was a moot point. It was there
    like a fire in the night, like a temptation no man could
    be expected to resist. That was Cami. His own
    personal temptation. The one woman he couldn’t turn
    away from no matter how hard he tried.
    Rafe was being driven insane by the need to
    have her again already. She hadn’t been gone five
    minutes and the need throbbing through his body was
    like a
