"Guards," my voice caught as Axton glared at me with hatred in his golden eyes. It shouldn't bother me that he figured out I was playing him. Hell, I didn't even know him. Yet my body had responded to him like we were old lovers reuniting after years of being apart.
His touch had left me feeling vulnerable. Like a hint of something that threatened to sweep me away. And I couldn't allow that to happen. I was here for one purpose only: get pregnant and give the Roulex a baby. I wasn't falling for an obnoxious alien. No way. Even if he was sexy as hell with magical fingers and mouth and tongue. I squeezed my thighs together.
I'd seen how much he had wanted me. What had made him pull away? Then my damn ego with a chip on my shoulder had screamed at him. I'd never had a guy not want to have sex with me and Axton's refusal stung.
