The throb of awareness made it seem as though they stood a mere breath apart instead of metres away. She experienced it each time they met. As if there were a link between them. Even his far-fetched suggestion hadn’t dimmed it. His eyes glowed as they locked on hers and suddenly the tight feeling in her chest and her rapid heartbeat weren’t just about his outrageous idea. No, he wasn’t a robot. He wasn’t unfeeling. He was human and very, very male. A twisting sensation started up in her womb. Her head spun and she planted her feet wider. ‘Actually, it’s a very human solution.’ His voice was low, almost intimate. ‘We both have issues that need resolution. By combining our resources we solve both problems and do it amicably. Then we can move forward and so can our country.’ ‘Marrying is a little more than combining our resources.’ To her chagrin, heat climbed her throat and into her cheeks. ‘You’re talking about joining our lives.’ And your bodies. Don’t forget that. He’s not the sort of man to be satisfied with a paper marriage. And he’ll want an heir to the throne. That twisting ache low in her body intensified.
