  &quot;She has to stop this now,&quot; She thought. 
  &quot;Mitchell,&quot; He heard him whisper against her hair. &quot;Show me to your room.&quot;
  Her heart pounded in her ribcage; her pheromones heightened.
  &quot;No,&quot; she thought again, summoning the last strength in her, she told him to stop before she finally pulled away. 
  &quot;What?&quot; He asked, gently running his hand down her bare arm. Sending shivers through her.
  Mitchell closed her eyes, trying to stay focused. She can t get carried away again. She knew Michael was already aware of the effect he has on her and he was taking pleasure in that.
  &quot;Tell me you wanted me to stop?&quot; He breathed into her hair.

  &quot;Okay,&quot; he said finally.
  &quot;Promise me you won t have a word about this with Michael,&quot; Mitchell begged.
  &quot;I can t promise that,&quot; he said. Someone needs to let him know that s a selfish and a most preposterous proposition.&quot;
  &quot;I knew and still accepted. Didn t I? I stand to gain too. 
  &quot;What exactly Mitchell do you stand to gain? Nothing. But if it makes you feel better, I won t tell him how unmanly he was,&quot;
  &quot;Thank you,&quot; she said, smiling for the first time since they started the conversation.

  &quot;I swear, I would have sworn he likes you, it was in his eyes,&quot; he said. 
  &quot;He was attracted to me,&quot; she said.
