       ‘We don’t marry for love or companionship, as other people do. We marry for the good of our island. Think of my betrothal as a business arrangement. But you are my lover. You are the woman I want to be with.’

      For an age Amy didn’t say anything. She simply looked into Helios’s eyes, searching for something—she didn’t know what.

      He brought his face down to meet her lips, which had parted.

      ‘I mean it, Helios, we’re finished. I will never be your mistress.’ Her words were but a whisper.

      ‘You think?’

      ‘Yes.’

      ‘Then why are you still standing here? Why is your breath still warm on my face?’

      Brushing his lips across the softness of her cheek, he gripped her bottom and ground her to him, letting her feel his desire for her.

      The tiniest of moans escaped her throat.

      ‘See?’ He trailed kisses over her delicate ear. ‘You do want me. But you’re punishing me.’

       CHAPTER ONE

      ‘DO YOU REALLY have to shave it off?’ Amy Green, busy admiring Helios’s rear view, slipped a cajoling tone into her plea.

      Helios met her eye in the reflection of the bathroom mirror and winked. ‘It will grow back.’

      She pouted. Carefully. The clay mask she’d applied to her face had dried, making it hard for her to move her features without cracking it. Another ten minutes and she would be able to rinse it off. ‘But you’re so sexy with a beard.’

      ‘Are you saying I’m not sexy without it?’

      She made a harrumphing sound. ‘You’re always sexy.’

      Too sexy for his own good. Even without a beard. Even his voice was sexy: a rich, low-pitched tone that sang to her ears, with the Agon accent which made it dance.

      Impossibly tall and rangy, and incredibly strong, with dark olive colouring and ebony hair, currently tousled after a snatched hour in bed with her, Helios had a piratical appearance. The dangerous look was exaggerated by the slight curve of his strong nose and the faint scar running over its bridge: the mark of a fight with his brother Theseus when they were teenagers. Utterly without vanity, Helios wore the scar with pride. He was the sexiest man she’d ever met.

      Soon the hair would be tamed and as smooth as his face would be, yet his innate masculinity would still vibrate through him. His rugged body would be hidden by a formal black evening suit, but his strength and vitality would permeate
