Free Blackmailed For Vengeance by Marie Kelly Page A

back to the kiss, each time the memory
causing her to shiver a little with pleasure
    As they had finished their
coffee, his mobile phone had rung and he had become very business
like as he held a conversation with an unknown man in what sounded
like French. Lee could only speak a spattering learnt from school,
and was impressed with his apparent fluency. Whatever was being
discussed was annoying Yanis, as he had frowned his mouth tight as
he bit out short commands. When he had finished the call, he had
looked over at her with an apologetic look
    “I’m sorry Lee, I have to go
away for a while” he said frowning down at his cup, as though he
had just had plans ruined
    “That’s OK” she smiled back
“I’m sure I’ll survive” adding with a wicked note in her voice
    “So long as I have my mansion,
chauffeur and unlimited credit cards”
    He had grinned back at her
    “Yes… about that, don’t you
think you should spend something on those credit cards” he
asked
    Lee had sighed “so many shops,
so little time” she giggled
    He had looked at her with a
strange expression on his face
    “Will you be OK…with the press
I mean?”
    Lee was surprised at his
concern, and had smiled warmly back at him
    Yanis had once more admired the
way that smile could light up her whole face, cursing the problem
in France. Given the way she had kissed him back at her friend’s
house, he had planned that night to make sure that there would be
no disturbances when he next took her in his arms. He had felt the
stirring within him at the way she was making his body yearn to
hold her. Again wondering why she moved him so much, with an almost
raw desire to possess her.
    With a sigh, he had pushed back
his chair
    “I have to go now, my plane is
waiting for me and your car should be outside, I’ll walk you out”
he said softly
    Lee had allowed him to walk her
out, his hand resting gently on the base of her back, as they
talked. Standing on the street he had taken her two hands in his as
he looked down at her face
    “I hope to be gone only a few
days…but from past experience, it may be longer” he said gently,
before in an almost automatic movement he had dropped his head to
kiss her lips gently. Lee had found herself standing on her tip
toes to take the kiss as though it was the most natural thing in
the world for them to do. With a quick step back, he had opened the
door for her before helping her in and waving goodbye.
    Safe in the car, Lee had sat in
stunned surprise at the way she had behaved, more surprised at the
pleasure that the simple action of kissing him good bye had brought
to her. She had found herself sitting with a gentle smile on her
face as she thought back to the morning, both at Mrs Greens house
and then at lunch. With a small gasp of shock, she realised that
she had enjoyed the time with Yanis especially the kisses one such
a surprise and the other anticipated. With a shock realisation she
finally admitted to herself that she had wanted to feel his lips on
hers, and more importantly she wanted so much more.
    As they drove along she had
moved to give new instructions to the driver, suddenly remembering
that she had a meeting with the orphanage that afternoon.

CHAPTER FIVE
    It had been strange having the
house to herself for the first few days, although Marias presence
was comforting, however, Yanis’s phone calls at the evening had
become a regular thing, as he would ask how Jim was doing, although
she could only report that there was no change in his
condition.
    After the second day he had
taken her email address and began to send her instructions that she
had to follow, with regards to who to talk to and when to meet with
them. His tone had annoyed Lee to the extent that she had asked him
what his last slave had died from. His response had been a series
of cartoons which had made her laugh and she had returned her own
versions of the cartoons. Soon they were emailing each other with
links to cartoons, news
