The heat in his eyes intensified as Gael found his skin, and at the challenging look in his eye. Oh, he didn't doubt that Gael was very good at getting his way. He'd said as much the first time they'd been together.

"Careful, azucar," he said with something of a sensual laugh as his back nearly hit the wall. Then he was free, moving, and behind Gael as he grabbed his arm. He tugged, and Gael turned. Maybe the playfulness in Carlos' face was a surprise. It was good-natured, and it didn't underestimate Gael. He loved a fight, almost as much as Gael loved getting his own way. "Getting cocky is dangerous."
