âYou know full well I would never want to have an affair with you. Youâre my boss!â
âYou didnât mind my kissing you just now,â Alex reminded Harriet with brutal honesty. âBut all that is beside the point. I saw the folly of my ways in time and changed my mind about trying to âseduceâ you, since you seem to like that word. Perhaps because it stops you from taking any responsibility over what just happened.â
âYou kissed me, Alex. I didnât do a thing!â
âNothing except look so deliciously sexy this morning that I havenât been able to think of anything else but making love to you all day.â
An already flustered Harriet honed in on his patently false wording. âYou donât want to make love to me at all,â she snapped. âYou want to have sex with me. Thatâs a totally different scenario.â
âTrue,â he said, before walking slowly back towards her. âBut nothing changes the fact that we canât go back to the way it was between us, Harry. You want me as much as I want youâdonât deny it,â he said, close enough now to reach out and place his large hands on her suddenly trembling shoulders.
Harriet somehow found her voice. âThat doesnât mean I have to do anything about it.â
âTrue again. But why deny yourself something which can give you pleasure? And I can give you pleasure, Harry,â he murmured, lifting his right hand off her shoulder to trace circles around her gasping lips. âLots of pleasure.â

I SHOULD BE HAPPIER, Alex thought as he picked up his mug of coffee and carried it out onto the terrace of his penthouse apartment, shivering slightly when the crisp air hit his face. Not that it would be cold for long, the sun already peeping over the horizon. Winter in Sydney was a picnic compared to winter in London. He was glad to be back home. But not all that happy, for some reason.
Alex surveyed the panoramic view of the city skyline, telling himself that a man would have to be a fool not to be happy when heâd finally achieved everything heâd ever vowed to achieve.
At thirty-four, Alex was no fool. He was, in fact, a very successful businessman.
A Rhodes scholar, Alex had first become an entrepreneur back in England over a decade earlier, going into partnership with his two best friends from Oxford in a dilapidated old wine bar, which probably should have been demolished, but which theyâd turned into a going concern. As it turned out, one wine bar had eventually become two, then three, then ten, till finally theyâd formed a franchise.
Sergioâs idea, that.
Alex smiled for the first time that morning. Thinking of Sergio always brought a smile to his face. Jeremy, too. Yet those two were as different as chalk and cheese. Sergio was inclined to take life way too seriously at times, whereas Jeremy... Lord, where did one start with Jeremy? Though some people might describe him as a playboy, Alex knew Jeremy was a decent man at heart, generous and loyal, though with way too much charm and money for his own good. And heâd have even more money now, the recent sale of their wine bar franchise having made them all billionaires.
