now it seemed as though she taken it one step further. His little recluse was getting ready to start a little sex revolution.
For a moment he wondered how she planned on approaching him about helping her out with this, but then realized that she
hadn't planned on approaching him at all. She didn't want his help. For everything else he was fine, but he wasn't good enough
for this. No, for this his little recluse planned on approaching a strange man and trusting him not to hurt.
He glared up at her as she shifted nervously in front of her computer as she wrung her hands together. Although she was a
sexy little thing now and he wouldn't have minded a go between her legs he'd decided that she was off limits. He also had a
firm rule about touching virgins, he didn't.
Virgins were too much work, too much drama and he didn't care enough to introduce them to sex patiently. When he had
sex he wanted to get off. He didn't really care about anything else and he sure as hell didn't care about making things perfect for
a woman. He got them off and that was enough in his book. It was the main reason he decided not to act on his attraction to the
little recluse even though he thought she was developing a bit of a crush on him and he knew he could have had her on her back
within seconds if he wanted, but damn.....
She really didn't want him. She wanted a stranger and that was not the reason why he surged to his feet and suddenly found
himself glaring down at her. It wasn't. He was concerned for her because she was doing something stupid. That was all.
"Are you out of your fucking mind?" he snapped, grabbing her by her arms and giving her a rough shake. "Do you have any
idea what could happen to you by going around and letting some guy fuck you?"
She winced, from his crude words or the tiny shakes he was giving her he didn't know or care. Didn't she realize she
could catch something? Get pregnant? Or worse, go home with some asshole that got his thrills by beating the shit out of
women? Didn't she realize how stupid this was?
"T-that's why I was doing research, you jerk!" she snapped back, surprising them both by the expression on her face. "I
don't know anything about sex and have no one I can ask!" she said, getting good and mad as she pulled her arms back only to
give him a good shove.
"I'm sick of not knowing! I want to have sex! I want to know what it feels like to be with a man and if I want to have sex
with a thousand men then that's my business, buddy!" she said, giving him a good shove. "And if you don't like it
then......then......then that's too darn bad!" she said, giving him a final shove that knocked him back onto his ass on the edge of
the bed.
She turned to grab her computer and storm off when he found himself saying something he knew he'd regret. "I'll teach
you."
Chapter 11
Was it possible to die from mortification? Jamie was pretty sure she was about to find out. Did he just offer her sympathy
sex? Admittedly she didn't know much about sex, but she didn't think she wanted some guy having sex with her because he felt
bad for her.
She wanted what the heroines in her books got from their men, blinding passion and desire. She wanted a man who
couldn't keep his hands off of her, not a man who was willing to take one for the team.
"Um," she cleared her throat uncomfortably, "no thanks. I'll just stick to videos and books."
His eyes narrowed on her as he got to his feet. "I meant," he bit out tightly, "that I'd help you, not that I would sleep with
you, Jamie."
"Oh.........," she said, thinking it over before asking, "Why?"
"Why what?" he snapped, looking agitated as he walked over to her computer to check something.
"Why do you care?"
"I need you healthy and whole to do this tour, Jamie," he explained, keeping it short and sweet, but she got the point. He
was only offering to help her for his job, not because he cared. It was foolish, but she couldn't help but feel a little hurt
