Undercover Lovers is the 2nd of my female spy novels. It's widely available, but during the month of July, if you buy directly from Smashwords, it's free!
The characters from the first book, Secret Lover, make a reappearance in the 2nd half of the book. Ameena is the heroine here, an ex-agent who left when she was captured and tortured by a lunatic who was hunting, torturing and killing female agents. She still bears the scars, and the nightmares have never stopped--even two years later. When he escapes from a maximum security prison, her former handler brings 2 agents to meet her--both will be her "shadows" until the Executioner is stopped--one during the day, the other at night. The day man is a young, sexy, blond Hispanic man who pursues her ardently, but she repeatedly turns him down. The night man is the tech/planner, and he's her age, having been with the agency as long as she was. When she has to attend a weekend bash at a music video producer's estate, she chooses the dark-haired tech man to accompany her. This scene is where she reveals to him just why she chose him.

Many hours later they were on the dance floor, swaying to the sound of an eighties love song, filled with sexual longing, being sung live.
Adam had his arms around Ameena's waist, and she had her arms wrapped around his shoulders, her hands clasped together behind his neck. He lifted his head from inhaling the fragrance of her hair to incline his head towards the stage at the far end of the hall. "Is that really him?"
Ameena smiled. "Who do you think got him his start, helping him along to pop stardom? Of course it's him. He's repaying Eddie-G by singing karaoke at his party."
"Is it still karaoke if you were the original artist who recorded the song?" They smiled at one another.
Ameena shrugged. "Who knows?"
They went back to swaying, each lost in their own thoughts.
Ameena took a deep breath and looked up and into Adam's eyes. They looked unfocused, as if his thoughts were far way. It's now or never. I have to tell him about it. I hope he's not upset. Ameena lifted her head up and gently kissed him on the chin. "There's something I have to tell you, Adam. I should have told you on the way, but I was waiting for a good time." She smiled nervously.
Adam shook his head to clear it, so he could concentrate on her words. "What?"
"You've seen all of the cameras all over the place, right?"
Adam nodded. "You said he had twenty-four-seven surveillance everywhere."
"Yes. But part of the reason he has cameras all over, is because he's a voyeur. He likes to watch his guests enjoying themselves."
Adam nodded again. "Not surprised at that. He's made his living filming other people."
Ameena took another deep breath. "I don't think you get the full implications here, Adam. He expects all of his guests to really give him something to watch. You know--to entertain him, even after you're gone. It's part of the gift that he requires from everyone. We all know what's expected."
Comprehension was beginning to dawn on his face.
Ameena continued talking quickly. "I got away without having to perform for him last year, because I came alone to the party. He offered me one of his boys. But when he wouldn't take no for an answer, I finally had to show him my scars. They were fresher and nastier-looking then. I explained them by saying that I had just recently ended a BDSM relationship that had gotten out of hand, and that I needed time to recover. I promised him I'd give him a show he'd never forget this year." She watched his eyes widen as he realized the full ramifications of her words.
"But it was supposed to be Tomás that came with you here. Wasn't it?"
Ameena shrugged, as she smiled seductively at him. "Remember I said there were a couple of reasons that I wanted it to be you?"
He nodded. "Because I was the one who was used to being awake all night."
She leaned in closer to him, to whisper into his ear. "The other reason was that I don't want him in my bed. I want you."

Adam listened to the sound of the blood pulsing through his body, as it all rushed to stretch the skin of his already-hardened cock, to its breaking point. He wondered briefly if it was possible for it to explode from engorgement. He had stopped breathing--stopped dancing--stopped blinking. He was barely capable of thinking. Me? She wants me? Me!
Ameena had begun loosening his tie, and her fingertips caressed the skin of his neck. She traced from his chin around to his ears, then pressed gently against the nape of his neck, to get him to lower his head enough for her to press her lips against his. They both leaned into the kiss, as every inch of their bodies pressed together. His hands kneaded the back of her hips, as he ground himself into her. He heard a low groan, and realized it had come from him. "When?"
She looked into his eyes.
He knew their clear blue would be cloudy with passion.
Her lips curved into a smile. "Now is good for me!"
He only nodded, having temporarily lost the ability to speak coherently.
Ameena took his hand and led him out of the ballroom and into the hallway.

Undercover Lovers includes my first attempt at a menage scene, but I had to keep it true to the characters and how they would act.
