knees and began to pump into her faster, reaching down to pinch her clit.

Two seconds of that and she completely forgot she’d just come. She was just approaching explosion when he abruptly changed positions again. Flipping her onto her back, he shoved a pillow under her hips and began thrusting into her again, slamming the head of his cock into her g-spot.

She began to sing when the first convulsion hit her. Joshua plugged her mouth with his, spearing his tongue into her mouth in the same rhythm. She thought for a moment that she was going to fly apart. She whimpered, sucked his tongue frantically and came so hard she nearly blacked out.

She was semi-comatose when he came the second time.

He collapsed beside her, panting for breath. “Better, baby?”

“God!”

Dragging in a shuddering breath, he pulled her rag-doll limp body against his own. “Was that a yes or a no?” he murmured, nuzzling her neck.

“So help me, Joshua, if you stick that thing in me again I’m going to bite you!”

He seemed taken aback, but when he’d pulled back to study her face, he chuckled.

“I didn’t leave you hanging that time,” he murmured in satisfaction.

“You didn’t leave me hanging the first time. I think I might’ve pulled something when I came the second time.”

“Like what?” he asked, laughter threading his voice.

“My womb!” she muttered testily. His hands felt good, though. He felt good.

She thought she could drift to sleep right then. She’d almost achieved coma when he roused her.

“You didn’t …. This wasn’t because I brought you the chip?”

Anna frowned, trying to make sense of the question. She was vaguely insulted when she did. She might’ve been more than a little insulted if she hadn’t been so out of it. It was a fortunate circumstance, because it dawned on her that it wasn’t an accusation.

It was a request for reassurance. She felt around blindly until she found his shoulder and patted it. “’Course not, baby. I adored you before you brought the chip.”

The tension eased from him. He lay strumming her back until she almost dozed off again. “You adore me, huh?”

“Dunce! Go to sleep.”

His arms tightened around her. “I can’t. They’d string me up by my balls if they found me in your bed.”

“Then go to your bed.”

She thought she’d insulted him but a moment later he was nuzzling her neck again. “As long as I’m here ….”

“I’ll string you up by your balls if you start again, damn it!”

“Grouch!” he said without heat, dumping her on the bed and rolling off of it.

“’Night, sweety!” Anna muttered.

He leaned down and bit one cheek of her ass. “Goodnight, magpie.”

Anna was more than half convinced she’d dreamed the entire incident. Her sore inner thighs, the stickiness between them, and the chip on the table near the bed were all the evidence necessary to convince her it wasn’t a dream, though.

Smiling to herself, she stretched and finally got up and went to perform her morning ritual. She was tempted to grab her chip and head for the computer to check it for damage immediately, but when she smelled breakfast and heard the men’s voices, she decided disappointment, or victory, could wait a little longer.

She almost regretted the decision. Joshua greeted her with a brilliant smile that she returned without thinking and breakfast went downhill from there. Discovering the moment she sat down that Simon, Ian, and Caleb were looking distinctly suspicious, she plopped her elbow on the table, shielded her face with her hand on her forehead, and focused on her coffee.

It might actually have worked if Joshua hadn’t been so damned cheerful. By the time Simon and Ian got up to head first to the Watch Center and then to court, Caleb, Ian and Simon had all growled at Joshua and glared at her, and he didn’t look nearly as cheerful.

She looked at Joshua with a mixture of amusement and annoyance when they finally had the kitchen to themselves.

“What the hell’s with them this morning?” he growled resentfully.

“I think, maybe, it was your cheerfulness,” Anna said delicately.

He looked surprised and then favored her with a heated look. “I’m always cheerful.”

Shaking her head, Anna got up and moved around the table. Leaning down, she wrapped her arms around his shoulders and kissed his cheek. “Of course you are, sweety! That’s why no one noticed,” she whispered in his ear.

His face reddened. “Well, shit!”

“It’s a good thing you left last night,” she said ruefully.

“Rub it in, why don’t you?” he muttered without heat, then added when he saw she was leaving. “You aren’t going to eat?”

She patted her stomach and sent him an arch look. “I’m still full from last night.”

He stared at her blankly for a moment and then laughed a little uncomfortably.

“We have to be in court in an hour,” Caleb reminded her as she passed him on her way to her lab.

“I’ll be ready,” she said. “I just need to check something on the computer.”

He caught her waist, reeling her toward him. She looked up at him in surprise. He studied her somberly. “When this is over ….”

Anna felt her heart flutter. She waited breathlessly for him to continue.

“We need to talk.”

It wasn’t what she’d hoped for, but it held a promise. She was sure of that—almost. She smiled at him. “Yes.”

He frowned at her a little quizzically. “Yes to what?”

“Whatever you want.”

He grinned lazily. “Whatever I
