It wouldn’t be so terrible if she thought there might be a chance in hell of them ever replaying that one spectacular night all over again. Or better yet, if she thought there was even a remote chance he might feel a fraction of what she felt for him. Despite the repeated lectures she gave herself, it all boiled down to the fact that Lucie was still in love with Kane.

There was no doubt in her mind that Kane would never be able to forgive her completely for what she did. Nor would he ever be able to truly trust her. And that meant these feelings that she had for him were better left tucked away, deep down, and hopefully, if she was lucky, eventually forgotten.

Chapter Two

Three months later...

Three o’clock could not have come fast enough for Kane. He’d been anticipating this morning for the last week, and now that it was here, he was admittedly feeling a little nervous.

With Haley at Lucie’s mother’s house for the next few days, Kane knew it was time for him to seize the opportunity. Because Lucie wouldn’t have any excuses, he was looking forward to getting some things hashed out between them. The tip toeing around, avoiding eye contact, and otherwise ignoring one another was seriously beginning to piss him off.

Although he went to see Haley every single day because he was so enthralled by the miracle that was his daughter, Kane and Lucie didn’t seem to be making any headway. In fact, she seemed to be pulling away more and more each time he tried to get closer. That was mostly his fault, he knew. Ever since that creep Justin Jones came into the picture about a month ago, Kane hadn’t been able to be around Lucie without getting pissed off.

Maybe he didn’t have the right to tell her whom she could and could not date, but Kane didn’t like the little shit who had been stalking her at least three or four nights a week at the club one bit. He had to hand it to Lucie, she handled him fairly well. Kane wasn’t entirely convinced they were actually dating, but he still felt the need to interfere any time the opportunity presented itself.

Kane knew Lucie was extremely careful with Haley – probably a tad on the paranoid side, in fact. And as far as he knew, Justin had never even been introduced to his little girl. If he had anything to say about it, he never would either.

Admittedly, it had taken a little while for him to get past the initial anger and resentment of Lucie’s deceit, but now that he was, Kane was beginning to think about things he knew he shouldn’t. Like getting Lucie in his bed – or hers – he didn’t care either way. The fact that she hadn’t dated another man as far as he knew for the last few years probably hadn’t helped him either. The problem was, he’d been stupid enough to hold back because he hadn’t had any real motivation to pursue her. Until now.

Since he couldn’t clearly remember anything about that one night so long ago when he’d obviously taken what he had wanted for so long, Kane was anxious to go back there. Only this time without the alcohol impairing him.

Even without the memories, each time he was close to Lucie, he got the sense of what her skin felt like beneath his fingertips. It was quite possible that his subconscious remembered her, the feel of her soft, smooth skin, the taste of her sweet mouth, but he wasn’t satisfied with almost knowing. He was ready to experience all of those things again, and those were the G rated visions he had about her. His cock wasn’t able to decipher between real and make believe, so those fleeting images that came out of nowhere to fuck with his mind had a damn near painful effect on him.

Unable to remember anything they did that night, he couldn’t help imagining what it would feel like to have his cock buried in her sassy mouth, or sliding between her better than perfect tits, or deep in her pussy while he made her scream his name as she came. Or better yet, buried to the hilt in her ass while he gripped her hair in his fist, taking her in ways he’d only ever dreamed about.

Kane wasn’t a gentle lover, never had been, nor did he feel the need to pretend he was. His desire was ferocious, his urges brutal, and all of his desire had been aimed at Lucie for as long as he could remember. Now he just had to find a way to satisfy his craving for this woman once and for all.

And Kane was sure as shit not about to let some young punk come in and intrude on what he wanted more than his next breath.

“You going home?” Kane asked when Lucie tried to walk past him without as much as a goodbye.

He hadn’t seen Justin in the club all night, and he only could hope she didn’t have any plans with the man now that Haley would be at her mother’s for a few days. If she didn’t plan to go home, her plans were about to change.

“Yes and I know the drill now, Kane. I’ll call you as soon as I get there.” Her tone was guarded, her eyes filled with irritation.
