absently wondered what kissing her would taste like.
    "The redevelopment will not take that long and it'll be over in a few months. Why don't you take a little holiday and you can return to a new and better looking premises when you return?" he said.
    Oh! He was so annoying! Dinah wondered was is being deliberately block headed, or did he really not understand how different economic conditions were outside of the big city? Many of her friends in her local business community were barely holding on and this redevelopment could mean the end for some of them! Including hers!
    "It's just not that simple!" she replied. "We rely upon the summer holiday crowds to boost our annual income and with summer coming the local businesses just cannot afford to take a holiday! You city folk can holiday in summer, but who's going to provide your accommodation? Who's going to cook your breakfast and make your latte's if we go on holiday too? Huh?"
    Dinah knew she was being unfair to him. She had no idea if he had a holiday home in Devon Bay or not, but the point was still the same. Summer was when the local business owners worked their hardest, while the holiday spot filled with sun seeking revelers from the city. It was something that they knew they had to put up with in order to live all year round in their slice of paradise, but that didn't mean that they had to roll over to big city developers intent on destroying their community!
    He smiled again, that slow lazy sexy smile, as he watched her get herself all worked up. He liked watching the rise and fall of her breasts underneath the fabric of her dress. When she got all emotional her body seemed to come alive, and he had not missed the signs of her physical reaction to him earlier. He thought that she was luscious and ripe for the picking! How hard would it be he wondered to get her into his bed tonight? Now there was a challenge!
    She was looking at him with wide eyes, and he realised with a start that he had been staring at her for too long while she waited for a reply. He wondered if she had noticed her effect on him the same way he had noticed his effect upon her earlier. His silent question was answered as a blush spread over the fine soft skin of her face and down her neck. He watched in fascination as he saw her nipples harden and thrust out through the fabric of her dress, and he felt a quickening in his groin.
    He cleared his throat and forced himself to concentrate. "Of course, we can look at the timing of the renovations to fit around the summer season," he said and wondered why he was capitulating to her demands so readily. Was it because he wanted her in his bed? Wanted her like he had never wanted a woman before in his life? This was not how he did business! But he found himself going on, as if he had lost control of his faculties and his brain was clouded by pure sexual desire. She was smiling now. He experienced a small moment of pleasure that he had made her smile, before he squashed the feeling with ruthless cold calculation. He could not let his body rule his business decisions!
    "I'll have the project manager take a look at the time outline again and we will see what we can do," he continued. He hoped that his vague offer would satisfy her and allow them to move to other, more sensual topics.
    The waiter arrived to take their orders. Dinah realised she had only given the menu a cursory glance and quickly scanning the mains she noticed one of her favorites. With a smile she turned to face the waiter and said, "Veal Scaloppini please."
    Jared ordered the Lasagne, which was prepared fresh daily on the premises.
    As the waiter turned away Jared focused his gaze back on Dinah and presented her with a stunning smile. "Business cannot be done on an empty stomach, as I'm sure you know," he said as he raised his wine glass and she picked hers up to toast with him.
    "To what are we toasting?" she asked, liking his playful mood.
    "To a mutually agreeable business meeting."
    Jared
