six two and a standard bathtub would not fit you comfortably. Especially not if the purpose for the get-a-way is for your wife to join you in it.”
    “I’m not married.” The words tumbled out, before Trenton could catch himself.
    “I was referring to Stiles, Mr. Rayner.”
    Trenton wanted to growl, he was getting tired of hearing his brother’s name on her lips, yet she refused to say his.
    Stiles laughed. “Trenton married…” His brother’s words drifted away.
    It was no secret that he never planned to marry, but hearing Stiles utter the words while they stood in a bathroom designed for two with Jolie within reach put a sour taste in his mouth. Fuck, I need to get out of here.
    “This is not about me,” Trenton retort.
    “Here is the basket containing the bath supplies I told you about.”
    One of the pink and brown packets caught Trenton’s eye. “Chocolate silk bath salts?”
    She slipped the envelope from the baskets filled with bottles and jars and held it up so they could see it. “ This, just like most of our products, is all natural. They have not only been infused with coco but other nutrients and vitamins allowing them to be edible as well as sensuous.”
    “Decadent and healthy,” Stiles said, fully taken in by Jolie’s presentation.
    “What’s next? Gluten-free truffles?” Trenton mocked.
    “If requested.” Jolie didn’t miss a beat as she exited the bath area and went into the bedroom.
    When both he and Stiles were inside the master suite, she showed them the cabinet with the flat-screen television and a shelf stocked full of adult videos of all different fetishes.
    “Sorry the television is not connected to satellite. It’s only for movie watching.”
    “That’s fine for Celeste and me.” Stiles wandered over to the cabinet and scanned the selections.
    Trenton wondered if Jolie enjoyed pornographic movies or if she just stocked them for her guests.
    As she went on about the various oils, lubes and condoms the nightstand was filled with in a steady, matter-of-fact tone, Trenton surmised that she repeated her spiel so often it was easy for her to separate the words from their actual meaning.
    Who says the word porn and lubricant and doesn’t get a little flustered, especially in mixed company. Especially a woman.
    The desire to see her a little off center from her ultra-efficient proprietor persona gnawed at Trenton. As the late afternoon sun poured in the window, it glinted off the golden charms of her necklace.
    He stepped closer to her, so that he would not have to yell across the room. “That is some necklace you are wearing. Very unique.”
    Lifting her hand, she stroked her fingers across the smooth surface. “A past guest made it for me. He and his wife were one of my first customers. It was their fiftieth-seventh wedding anniversary. They spend their free time making ceramics. Somehow they fashioned me a chocolate chocker and figured out a way to glazed it.” She fingered the key and heart.
    Trenton’s hand itched to see if the thin, custom-made piece was cold like most ceramic objects or if it absorbed the warmth from her skin.
    She smiled and her eyes sparkled in the sunlight. The golden brown color of her irises drew him in, captivated him and made him forget himself.
    “What can I say? I’m a slave to chocolate.”
    “Want a master?”
    Several things happened at the same time. Jolie’s eyes stretched wide, her pupils constricted, her breathing increased and her hand stilled. Trenton’s heart began to race and his gut tightened. Stiles phone rang.
    “Excuse me. I have to take this.” Stiles pressed a button and headed toward the living room as he placed the cell to his ear. His brother’s absence left him alone with the one person his mind realized he shouldn’t be alone with and the one person his gut wanted solitude with.
    The thought of retracting the words never entered Trenton’s mind.
