thing. Make her proud.”
     
    Ronald nodded. “She took something from my office. If she still has it then she can help take a sizable chunk out of their organization. It won’t completely shut them down. They’re too big for that, but it would at least crumble their fortress a little.”
     
    Preston nodded. He had already talked with Alex so he knew there was something of importance that they needed to get Carissa back to find, but he wasn’t going to tell Ronald that he knew that already. There was no need to completely show his cards, not when he still didn’t fully trust the man in front of him.

    “W e’ve been here long enough. We have to get ready to leave.” They had been there two and a half weeks and counting. He didn’t want to chance staying there for another week. It was time to get moving. Preston had their next location set and secured now, they needed to move. When he didn’t receive a reply from Carissa he looked up to find her standing there watching him.
     
    Alex looked over the sexy curves of the woman in front of him. This much one-on-one time with her had stretched his restraint to the limits. She was getting around much better than before, and on many occasions she had graced his ears with her laugh. She had the most intoxicatingly beautiful laugh he had heard in a long time. While he wouldn’t profess love for the sexy vixen, he would profess lust. He was lusting after her with a vengeance.
     
    Julian had bought a few clothing items for her before he left, a few summer sundresses to get her by, which she had worn the past couple weeks. But he had also bought the sexiest pair of form fitting, hip-hugging white pants and simple yellow button down that clung to her body in all the right places. Did she have to, out of all the days to wear that outfit, wear it today? Did she have to entice him with every move of her body, every hint of laughter in her voice, or every whispered word that she thought he hadn’t heard? Looking at her standing there in that body flattering outfit was setting him on fire. He had held out this long, but by God he couldn’t hold out any longer. He needed to taste her, touch her, feel her.
     
    Alex pulled Carissa flush against his body, her soft feminine curves melded with his hard angles in a way that increased his need to claim her. Forget the danger, the right and wrong of taking her when she was emotionally torn between the battle of loyalty to her country and loyalty to her father. He couldn’t wait. He couldn’t push himself away from her. He needed to claim her and possess her completely.
     
    He dipped his head, not asking permission, not seeking to seduce her slowly; he claimed her mouth with his, using his tongue to part her lips and there he devoured her. His tongue dueled with hers for domination. It wasn’t enough, it would never be enough. He slipped his fingers into her hair and grasped tight, gently pulling her head back and exposing her to more of his hungry assault. He kissed her passionately, with a fury of a man possessed by uncontrollable desire.
     
    The fires raging within him made him ache with need for release. Right now this was a woman he planned to conquer completely.
     
    His mouth left hers as he trailed succulent kisses over her neck. “Alex,” she moaned as he sucked and kissed and licked at her skin. It wasn’t enough. He needed more, he needed all of her.
     
    He gripped her blouse, ripping it from her body. There was no room for finesses in his touch because he had no control left. He had been watching her move, watching her sleep, watching her breathe and every second of every day had turned his flame higher.
     
    He tore at the buttons on her pants and tugged them down her legs, taking her panties with them. Her moans were setting him on fire. “Step out of them,” he growled and she unsteadily complied. His lips trailed passionate sucking kisses up her thighs and a low growl escaped
