.“Frankly, no.As a matter of fact, Doctor Piers,” Tara snapped, standing in the doorway, “There is no reason why a woman can’t have sex with no strings, and a man can.This is the new millennium, and it’s time you woke up and smelled the cappuccino.I know what I want and set out to get it.The only thing I want from you is a test or two to ensure that Kona and I are completely free to have sex.I want no sexually transmitted diseases to show for my vacation.”His eyes narrowed as he stared at her.“You want me to examine you both so you can have sex? Neither one of you are my patients.I can’t do that.”Tara walked up to him and handed him the basket of buns.“As I said before, I’m a modern woman who knows what she wants in a brief fling.Tomorrow I’d like to go to your office for a complete checkup.What time is good for you?”“We can work that out later, Tara.Come back to the dining room and sit beside me so we can eat.I want to spend the evening enjoying you.” Kona held out her chair and she leaned in close to him as she prepared to sit down.“You smell divine, Kona.No wonder you drive the girls wild with your fire dancing.One sniff of your cologne and I’ll bet most of them faint from the delicious scent of you.”Kona laughed, pushing in her chair and then sitting down.They basically ignored Piers for the moment, chatting amongst themselves.Feeling left out, Piers said, “I’m having dinner in Mateo’s office.You two enjoy the evening.” Piers walked out of the room, but Kona went after him.“Wait up, Piers.What did I say to make you angry at me?”For a moment Piers paused then turned around and sighed.“Look, Kona, I don’t care what you two do, but I don’t feel like watching.”Kona looked shocked.“You never minded before when I flirted with a gal.Are you absolutely sure you don’t want her for yourself?”Piers sucked in a deep breath, not sure how he was going to answer.Tara intrigued him more than he’d admit out loud.The thought of having her in his bed teased and taunted him.Whenever he was close to her, she smelled like cinnamon spice, and her eyes told him that she wanted him.Was he tempted? Yes.Ready for a relationship? Never again, he swore.“No, I don’t.” Piers growled and turned away to lock himself in the office.Chapter 4:Catch the Tiger by the Tail“I take it the answer is no?” Moki asked.Tara was startled at the sudden appearance of Moki, but recovered quickly.“You scared me! You walked up so quietly.You know what we were doing?”Moki laughed.“I may seldom get out of my kitchen, but I know everything that goes on in this house.I’ll bet he’s thinking of you right now over a glass of brandy.”“Moki! I’m surprised at you.Now, tell me how to free him from his pain so Rae can move on with her life.”“Tara, he has a lot of healing to do, but I’m sure you’ll be the one to help him.Can I ask you why you don’t want a relationship?”“You can ask, but I won’t tell you the whole deal.I have secrets I don’t share with anyone, not even Rae.Sorry, girlfriend.”“Are you married or divorced?”Tara snickered.“Divorced.You get straight to the point, don’t you? All I need is some guidance to show me how I can help him.”“Keep up what you’re doing.He’ll loosen up soon, if not for the sex, at least to buffer his pain.I’ll make him a plate of dinner.”“Moki, let me take it to him, okay?”“I was about to ask you to.Somehow I think you’ll be good for him.”For a moment, Tara paused, all the excitement about the chase forgotten.She dropped her chin to her chest and sighed.“I’m not so sure.It depends on Piers, I suppose.”Moki pulled her into a hug and held her tight.“Sweetheart, I’ll do what I can to help you, under one condition.”“What is that?”“You must promise me that you’ll come to me whenever you need a friend to talk to or hug.I, in turn, promise you that I’ll be here twenty-four-seven.”“Thank you.I’m humbled by your support.”“Never mind that now.Go capture his attention.I’ll bring the tray out to you in a minute.”Tara watched Moki go back to the kitchen and fought to keep from crying.Rae was right.Moki was quite a woman.It was wonderful to know she had one person ready to help when needed.Now all she could do was play the waiting game.The door swung open and Moki handed her the tray.“Everything will turn out as it should.”Nodding, Tara took a deep, calming breath, then smiled and left to deliver the tray.No matter what, she’d help Piers get well.She’d make sure of it.* * * *The brandy burned as it went down his throat, but Piers needed a distraction.Tara was driving him crazy with those knowing eyes, that sexy smile, and her mischievous attitude.When he looked at her, all he could think about was getting her into bed, but he’d promised himself that that would never happen.He’d had enough of women who could break his heart.Besides, he couldn’t get Rae out of his mind.Rae…so sweet and beautiful, not to mention married to his best friend.He was concerned that Mateo wouldn’t treat her as she deserved.There was a knock at the door, which pulled him from his musings.“Come in, Moki.” She’d probably brought him the dinner he couldn’t eat.He’d had no appetite since the wedding.The door opened and in walked Tara with his tray.He felt himself harden instantly, and cursed.He had no control where this woman was concerned.“Put it down and get out,” he snarled.Tara laughed.“My, my, look what the tiger brought in.Are you always so cheerful when you wait for a meal?”Her eyes were alight with laughter and sparkling with trouble.Piers squirmed in his chair and frowned.How was he supposed to ignore her when she was so vibrant and beautiful?“Don’t you have company?”“Of course I do, but we’d like you to join us.Wouldn’t you like us to be a threesome?”Eyes widening with surprise, Piers swallowed hard and looked at her with disdain.“I don’t know what you’re planning, but believe me, I’ll not have any part of it.You can work with me doing the Kegel classes, but that’s it.Do you understand?”There it was again, that deliberate grin that lit up her eyes.She was drop-dead gorgeous and begging to be taken to bed.He had a hard time fighting his desires, but fight them he would.His heart still ached from his last bedmate’s actions.Tara leaned in close as she placed the tray before him, allowing him a glimpse of her cleavage.She made a fuss over the placement of his cutlery and sighed, eyes down in submission.“Do you like what you see, Dr.Piers?” she asked, her voice husky.“What?” he said in confusion.“Your meal.Do you like what you see? Moki cooked the ham just the way you like it.She said she roasted the potatoes in herbs as well.”“Oh, ah…yeah, it’s all good.” His face flushed, making him uncomfortable because of where his mind was.Tara had on a cinnamon scent, which turned him inside out.“I thought you’d appreciate the skills of a woman.You seem the type.”Piers dared not stand up, the desk hiding evidence of how much he liked her skills.Anger flared as he realized where his mind was going.He wanted to take her right there on the desk, the food be damned.“Tell Moki thanks, and get out of here.” His tone was gruff, but he couldn’t help it as he fought his reaction to her.Tara winked at him, shrugging her shoulders.“I’ll go back to the dining room.Kona and I would really like you to join us.”“No thanks.I have work to do for tomorrow’s class.”She studied him for a long breathless moment until he felt like squirming in his chair.No woman had ever had that effect on him.What is it about her that makes me feel like a teenager in school?“Dr [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
