She laughed.“It’s your circus.”
“Exactly.So I’m calling it a success, and you’re clocking off for the night.”He stood and held out his hand.“I can tell you’re horribly jet lagged.You need a bed asap.”
She rolled her eyes but slid her hand into his when he stepped off the dance floor.Her knee-length dress caressed her body as she strode over to the group and ensured everyone’s needs had been catered to for the evening.Then he watched her expertly hand over the reins to the Italian assistant and hostesses she’d been working with all afternoon.
By the time they reached his limo, he could barely keep his hands off her.He had her on her back and panty-less within seconds.
He was inside her a minute later.He held himself deep within her and watched pleasure darken her eyes.
“To what do I owe this keen attention, Savage?”She licked the pad of the thumb he traced over her mouth.
He pulled out and slowly slid back into her snug heat, burying himself so deep, he earned himself a sweet, lusty groan.“What can I say, Peaches?Watching you work made me hot for you.”
Her mouth closed over his tongue and sucked it deep.Then she reached down to where they were joined and boldly cupped his balls.“Hmm.”
His vision blurred.“Fuck!”
He muttered, groaned, and then finally shouted that word before they got to his hotel.

Bethany wasn’t sure what woke her.But the sense of déjà vu hit with frightening force.Only this time, Zach was in a deep sleep, his head on the pillow just above her with both arms tangled around her in a back to front unbreakable hold.She listened for several minutes before she forced herself to breathe slowly, regulate her heartbeat.
Putting it down to strange sounds in a strange city, she was just starting to drift back to sleep when she heard it.
Her tablet.Sending out an alert meant for her.Sheena had sent her several during the evening and probably hadn’t stopped to work out the time difference.
The temptation to leave it till morning was strong.
But as she found herself reaching toward the bedside table for her iPad, that lingering sense of impending danger grew stronger.
The headline in the email from the unknown sender hollowed out her stomach.But it was the paragraph that followed that made her blood run cold.

Savage Sets His Sight On Another Innocent
Shall we pity Bethany Green or be bug-eyed with envy?New York events organizer Bethany Green has landed herself the big fish in the form of Zach Savage.But before women the world over start rending their garments, we advise caution.
Savage has a history of turbulent relationships, one of which ended in tragedy, intrigue and a coverup.Sources previously close to a deceased ex have further revealed a major coverup, including missing hospital records after said ex’s death.
So before you lament the loss of this billionaire bachelor, perhaps you should count yourself lucky to have escaped his dangerous snare…
Bethany swallowed and read the email again, trying to keep the icy churning in her stomach at bay.
Missing hospital records… A coverup…
She noticed the attachment to the email and activated it.The photo that opened up made her heart stop.
At least now she had a face to go with the woman who had made such an impact on Zach.
Farrah Nisa was gorgeous.The kind of hurt-your-eyes stunning that men like Zach Savage attracted with minimum effort.Zach hadn’t been exaggerating there.
God, no wonder he’d built a shrine for her.
Pain, jealousy and a healthy amount of self-loathing for her very uncharitable thoughts congealed in a ball of misery in her gut.
She stared harder at the sultry Farrah’s photo, searching for answers she knew she wouldn’t find.Then she scrolled back up and read the message again.
