When I stormed out of the airport after throwing a temper tantrum, I never expected to cross paths with him again. All I wanted to do was put the night behind me and enjoy a strong martini. The last thing I expected was for him to waltz into the bar and offer me a night I couldn't refuse. I had every opportunity to tell him who I was.

Apparently, seeing him again was inevitable, especially when fate kept putting him in my path. I didn’t have time for a relationship. I had a business to run and obligations to honor. But as it turned out, resisting him required more restraint than the set of handcuffs that brought us together in the first place. I convinced myself that it was the perfect arrangement.

We might have agreed to keep things simple, but sometimes rules are destined to be broken. He told me he would give me Whatever I Need.
