you for the teacher,” she said.

“What?” Dimitri was trying to understand what was going on but he was slowly losing the thread.

She giggled at his outraged expression. “Or maybe I should,” she considered, looking him up and down. “You’re good at sex, aren’t you?” she asked.

Dimitri was having difficulty following this conversation. He was still stuck three sentences back. “Excuse me?”

“Sex. You could teach me everything I need to know, couldn’t you?”

Dimitri watched as her eyes started to close. “You want to learn to have sex?”

Helen yawned widely. “Of course. Barbara said you wouldn’t like virgins.”

“Why the hell would Barbara say something like that?” This conversation was becoming more strange by the second.

“Because she knew how I felt about you. She’s the only one, though.”

The whole conversation was completely out of control but his body froze with her last statement. “How do you feel?” he asked coaxingly. He knew he was pushing his luck but couldn’t help it.

She smiled and inhaled deeply. “Oh, you know. Since you’re the reason for all this craziness, it is only fair that you fix it and make me into the kind of woman….” She started off, only to drift off to sleep.

Dimitri stared at the woman who had just fallen asleep in the bathtub. What had she been about to say? Dammit! She’d haunted his dreams for so many nights and, looking at her now, all warm and rosy from the bath, he was going to have many more fantasies about bubble baths not to mention tormenting ideas about what she had been about to say.

He watched her for a long moment, staring at her full, red lips. Then his eyes traveled down her body, hidden by the bubbles but still sexy as hell. And now she was asleep. A part of him was telling him to just leave her in the bath tub, that he wouldn’t be able to deal with getting her out. The gentleman in him knew that he’d never be able to walk away from her in this kind of position but the man with the aching erection wished he could.

With grim determination, he moved over to the tub and stared down at Helen. Then he rolled up his sleeve and lifted the plug, allowing the water to drain out of the bath. Quickly gathering a towel, he placed it over her naked body, but not before he’d seen the perfection of her skin, of her breasts and the apex of her thighs. Helen had long, perfectly shaped legs that ended with cute, pink painted toe nails. That was another thing he hadn’t known about her and he liked it. He liked it a lot. Groaning out loud at her perfection, he covered her with a large, fluffy pink towel before lifting her into his arms.

As he carried her to the bedroom, he was amazed at how little she weighed. He looked down at the dark circles under her eyes and the long, thick lashes. What had made her so tired? She’d lost weight too, he realized. He’d have to work this through. But not tonight. Pulling the covers down with one hand, he carefully laid her down, then pulled the covers back over her.

Turning off the light, he walked out of the house, making sure all the doors were locked as he left.

The pain woke her up. She’d never experienced such a headache before. The throbbing started behind her eyes, then slashed to the back of her head in wave after wave of pain. Putting a hand to her forehead, she started to roll over, then stopped as more pain washed over her head, ending somewhere toward her neck.

The phone ringing only made things worse, if that was possible. She lifted the handle just to stop the ringing.

“Good morning, Helen. How are you feeling today?” the deep voice at the other end of the line asked cheerfully.

Helen closed her eyes and tried to concentrate. “Mr. Theopolis?” she gasped as soon as her mind started working. Images of him standing over her in the bathtub came back to her but she couldn’t remember if they were a dream or if he had really been here last night.

His deep chuckle made her skin tingle despite the awful pain throbbing along every bone in her body. “No going back Helen. It was ‘Dimitri’ last night. You’re just going to have to get used to using my first name.”

“Oh no,” she gasped, then sank deeper into the soft pillows as even that
