His body reminded her she was a woman…
The battering he’d taken earlier, evading the sheriff, only made him that much more dark and dangerously appealing. Her pulse throbbed.
Matt was in her space, breathing the same scarce air. The more he looked at her, the more powerful he became and the deeper in his thrall she fell.
“I’ll be back in the morning,” he said. “You’ll need to go along with whatever I say or do. Clear?” When she didn’t answer, he continued, “You don’t want to cross me, Fiona. The sheriff will be back in the morning and they’ll be saying you’re the one who murdered Kyle Everly.”
She swallowed hard. “I don’t believe that.”
“You don’t have to believe me, Fiona. Just wait and see.” He stepped closer to her, and in the frigid night air she could feel the warmth emanating off his body, smell the scent of hay and horseflesh on him. He touched her cheek. “I want you to know this,” he said, his voice low. “I want you to know you can tell me anything.”
He just didn’t know. That was the one thing she couldn’t do.
