Her dark green eyes, with their gold flecks, flashed. He’d always loved her eyes. Slightly tilted at the corners, they were seductive cat eyes a man could lose himself in. But he didn’t like seeing the anger and hurt in them now. He was an idiot. The woman of his dreams walked back into his life and he acted like a jerk. “Sam, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to come on so strong. It’s a stressful time for us both. Hell, when I saw you standing there in that bedroom, the shock threw me for a loop.” He smiled, trying to diffuse the tension. “It didn’t help that you were practically naked.” She flushed a pretty shade of pink, her soft, full lips parting slightly. God, he wanted to kiss her. Did she still taste as sweet as he remembered? With effort, he tamped down his raging libido. This wasn’t a romantic tryst. They were marooned here and she hadn’t come to him by choice. She put a hand to her hip. “Aiden, stop it.” Stop it? He’d seen desire spark in her eyes. Male pride surged through him.
