worst, she’d tell him exactly where he could shove his contract.
She wasn’t the same girl he’d known back in law school. She’d gone from an awkward teenager to a confident woman and for an instant, Will regretted that he hadn’t been there to see it—to experience it. Hell, she probably had all the men she needed in her life, men who had recognized her beauty the moment they’d met her, men who’d been a little quicker off the mark than he had been.
Will had been with a lot of women and though the passion had been overwhelming at times, he’d never really connected emotionally, never really believed what they’d shared had anything to do with love or even deep affection. It had always been about physical desire and nothing more.
His feelings for Jane were different. She was incredibly beautiful and sexy and intriguing, but he wasn’t intent on seducing her. They were friends first and if they became lovers, it would come as a logical step in their relationship, not from some overwhelming desire to rip each other’s clothes off.
Jane wasn’t the kind of woman he could seduce and then leave. She occupied a different place in his life than all the other women had. Yet, he couldn’t ignore the sparks of attraction that had crackled in the air when they were together these last couple of times. Nor could he deny spending the last few days thinking about her, about how good it felt to be around her, about how he enjoyed the sound of her voice and warmth of her touch.
What he wanted didn’t matter, especially if Jane didn’t want him. If she walked up to him and demanded that he stay out of her life, then he’d have no choice but to back off. Will stopped in the middle of the path and cursed softly. He’d always suspected that she’d carried a secret torch for him, that all he’d have had to do was crook his finger and she’d have come willingly. But whatever feelings she might have harbored for him had obviously been forgotten long ago.
