Ariana POV
She lay on her back naked on the big four poster bed, with flower petals scattered all around. Elina clearly knew how and when to pull out all the stops. Dimitri had evidently whispered something in her ear.
Dimitri, also gloriously naked, squatted beside her, rubbing jasmine-scented massage oil into her skin. "Feel this," he said huskily. "Feel my hands on you. Feel what they can do to you."
Gooseflesh erupted wherever he touched, and she felt so sensitive, her nipples tingling. From the knowing look in his heavy-lidded eyes, he was aware exactly what effect his touch was having on her.
He continued in a breathy voice, "This is only a taste of what I'm going to do to you tonight in this room, my sweet sugar baby. For what you said in front of your aunt and uncle. I'm not sure if you meant it, but even if you did, I mean to earn it. I'll earn your love and that melting look in your eyes."
Could he really love her?
