Eve checked herself out in the mirror and wasn't quite sure if she was wearing the right thing for her date with Van Ness. She didn't even know if she had anything in her closet that screamed fancy - yet platonic - blind date, in the first place.

Unfortunately, after her long lazy shower, she didn't have a lot of time to figure it out. She ended up settling for a simple dark grey, knee length dress that she bought for one of her grandmother's infamous tea parties.

It had been fancy enough to fit in with all of the other debutantes; but plain enough to not be missed when Eve inevitably made her sneaky early exit. The overall sentiment seemed to fit well with her current predicament so she went with that one. Granted, if she hadn't fucked half of the day away with Javí next door, she'd have more than enough time to glam herself up a little bit more.

But the more she thought about it, the more Eve didn't want to look too nice. Eve had no reason to believe that Daniel was a bad guy, and felt bad that he had gotten roped into this mess because of her. It wouldn't be fair to lead him on and have him think that she was dressing up for him and that he had a realistic shot with her. Because as it stood, there was only one man in Colombia that Eve hoped to impress, and it wasn't her date for the evening.

She'd never really gone to so much trouble for a man before. But she wasn't willing to let go of this thing that she had started with Javíer - not yet anyway. Therefore, Eve was going to grin and bear it tonight if it kept Colleen from gossiping about them and drawing attention to their fling.

Eve was well aware that all of this could still blow up in her face. Colleen wasn't dumb and Eve was terrible at pulling off any kind of duplicity. To her credit, Eve had never been stupid enough to sleep with any of her bosses in the past. But there was something so irresistible about Javíer Peña that had Eve breaking all of her rules. She just had to cross her fingers and hope that everything worked out. But hope and pray, had never been her style. 

Eve applied her make up and thought about the way she had left Javíer's apartment after they had slept together. It had been a lot harder than she thought it would be to pry herself out of Javí's arms and skip out of his apartment as if he were nothing more than a good time.

Amazing sex aside, being with Javí was just too easy; especially when they were no longer trying to deny their attraction to each other. The way he looked at her...it was as if he really saw her and it touched her in ways that she just couldn't seem to shake. People that she had grown up with and known for years, still looked at her as a member of some kind of political dynasty and never took the time to notice how disgusted she was about the whole thing. A part of her had given up trying to find anything real in this world...and then Javíer Peña showed up.

The last thing that she expected was softness from him. The way that he tenderly kissed her had been full of unspoken promises that touched her soul in ways that she had been trying to erase from her mind ever since she left his apartment. He not only made her feel wanted and sexy, but he made her feel adored. It was a deadly combination that was bound to get them hurt.

For as great as Javí was, Eve decided that she really had to put a little bit of distance between them before she started catching real feelings for him. Because for all of the times that Eve had fantasized about sleeping with Javí, she had gotten a lot more than she had bargained for. She hadn't expected him to be so open and soft with her...but more than that, she hadn't expected to like it so much.

A little blush, lipgloss and eyeliner later, Eve looked presentable enough to head out the door. She'd actually spent more time attempting to cover the hickey that Javí left on her neck then applying makeup to her face. He marked her and a dark part of her heart loved it. It was a shame that she had to try and cover it before she left. Eve liked having a reminder of their time  together.

She called for a taxi and quickly doubled back to her bedroom to grab her pager so she'd have her excuse to bail out early.

Eve hadn't gotten any better at latching her apartment door. Just about everything in embassy housing was just as cheap as the paper thin walls. But as she struggled with the lock, she heard familiar footsteps coming her way.

Javí's jaw dropped when he saw her in the hallway. He had hoped that he could make it to the liquor store and back without running into Eve. After she left him that afternoon, he had spent the better part of the day stewing in the fact that she had the upper hand with him and decided that he wanted to avoid her as much as possible. Especially since she was going to be spending the evening with another man. But all of his efforts fell flat when he saw her all dressed up.

"You look nice." Javí praised in a taunting tone. He hated how gorgeous she looked; all wasted on another man.

"You think?" Eve played along as she locked her door and gave him her best curtsy. Javí was still upset with her and Eve tried not to find his grumpiness as adorable as it was.

"So you're really doing this?" Javí sighed as his eyes drank her in from head to toe. She looked amazing and he was jealous that she wasn't dressed up for him. He didn't like having these cave man impulses, but he couldn't help it. There was something about Eve that had awoken parts of him that he forgot existed.

"Come here, baby." Eve cooed as she cupped his face with her hands and pulled him closer to her. Terms  of endearment just rolled off her tongue as if they had been together for years. "I know that this is a less than ideal situation."

"You think?"

"Javí." Eve sighed. He was simply adorable and the last thing that she wanted to do was hurt him. "Do you want more days like today?"

"Of course I do." Javí hummed as he put his shopping bag on the floor and placed his strong hands on her hips. He had plans as he slowly pushed her up against the wall beside her door. Eve held his dark gaze and let him collect the material of her dress in his hands and inch the hem higher and higher until she was practically exposed in the middle of the hallway. "Look at you, huh." Javí praised as he licked his perfect lips. "All dressed up...hermosa. I'm not nearly finished with you."

"If we want to have more days like today, then this date is a necessary evil." Eve tried to keep her voice steady, but she was powerless against Javí's sexy stare. Those sincere brown eyes of his could break through all of her defences and make her feel all of the things that she knew she shouldn't let herself feel. "If Colleen thinks I'm dating, she'll stop thinking I have the hots for you."

Javí didn't look convinced and looked away from her with a scoff. But that didn't stop him from slipping his fingers past the material of her lace panties at the same time. She gasped in awe and loved how bold he was. She was also thankful that they were the only two units on their floor. But, she had to admit, the thought of getting caught sent a thrill through her veins.

"Do you?"

"Huh?" Eve asked with her eyes closed. Javí's skilled fingers made it difficult to think straight.

"Still have the hots for me?"

"You have no idea." Eve moaned out her words as he collected her wetness and rubbed slow circles around her clit.

"Good." Javí practically growled against her ear. "Because I don't like this at all.

"Do you trust me?" Eve softly moaned as he pleasured her at a lazy pace, as if they had all the time in the world. "Because if you don't trust me, this is a giant waste of time."

"I'm being childish, aren't I?" Javí asked in a low voice, delighting in how wet he had made her already. She was just so perfect, it almost felt as though he was dreaming when they were together.

"A little bit." Eve giggled at him. "But it's a nice look on you."

Javí had a dark mischievous twinkle in his eye as he took a knee in front of her and pushed her panties off to the side.

Eve bit her bottom lip and held her breath while she watched him admire her in such a vulnerable state.

"I don't think I'll ever get my fill of you." Javí proclaimed, speaking more to her pussy than to her face.

On some level Eve must have known what Javí intended to do, but she still didn't quite believe it when he pressed his lips to the apex of her thighs and started to kiss and lick her pussy in the middle of the hallway.

He encouraged her to spread her legs apart a little bit further to give him room to eat her. The more of her he tasted, the more vocal he became as he growled into her and placed one of her legs over his shoulder. He opened his mouth wide and toyed with her as he lapped her and dragged his tongue over her clit over and over again; exactly the way he had earlier.

Eve forgot all about the taxi that was probably waiting for her and dropped her purse on the floor by her feet. This was the only place she really wanted to be anyway.

"Oh fuck, Javí." Eve groaned as she ran her fingers through his hair and tried to keep her balance even though his tongue made her legs tremble. "Did I mention earlier that you're really fucking good at that?"

Javíer smiled against her flesh as he doubled his efforts and brought her quickly to the brink. But just as the desire coiling in her belly was about to snap, he abruptly stopped and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand.

"There you go, princess." Javí mocked with a smirk on his face. Using the American pronunciation to show his disapproval with her. "That's all you get for now."

"You're kidding." Eve huffed as she took her leg off his shoulder and tried to stand on her wobbly legs. "You ass, I was so close."

"I know." Javí chuckled. He stood to face her and rubbed his nose against hers while she panted and tried to control her breathing. "I'll be more than happy to finish you off after your date."

"What's stopping me from having my date finish me off?" Eve fired back, annoyed that he had toyed with her like that. The truth was, she had every single intention of coming home to Javíer that night. But she didn't appreciate his possessiveness or games one bit.

"Nothing is stopping you." Javí shrugged as he tried to play cold and aloof. Attempting to hide his true feelings for her. He couldn't tell if he was pissed off or turned on by her fire. But either way, he was right before; Eve was going to be a handful. He just hoped that he was up for the challenge because he felt so alive when they were together. "If you think he can make you feel as good as I do,...be my guest."

"I thought you'd be a better liar, Javí." Eve smirked at him, not believing that he'd be so willing to see her spend the night with her mystery date instead of him.

"I don't want to share you." Javí confessed as he placed soft kisses along her jawline and the back of her ear. Eve could see right through him and he never thought he'd find that such a sexy quality. "I want to make you call out my name, princesa."

"Share me?" Eve giggled as she relished the feeling of his warm lips on her skin. "Wow, Javí. You make red flags seem really fucking sexy, you know that?"

Going to work on Monday was going to be interesting thanks to their new dynamic. This was exactly the kind of shit that she had been trying to avoid.

"Red flags?" Javí couldn't help but laugh along with her. Eve brought out the joy in the most unusual situations, Javí was in awe of her.

"I'm not yours to share." Eve purred as she boldly cupped his very noticeable erection in the palm of her hand. It was nice to know that eating her out in a semi public place had him so turned on, but she really needed to set some boundaries with him so they could keep fucking each other without complications. "We had one very enjoyable afternoon. And I really want to have more of those...a lot more, if I'm being completely honest. But I'm not your girlfriend, Peña."

Javí had never had a woman look him in the eye and say those words to him while she (quite literally) had his cock in her hand. If she were anyone else, Javíer would have enjoyed hearing that he could continue to fuck her with no strings attached. But Eve was different. Hearing those words coming from her stung.

Eve watched Javíer process her words and could tell that she had hurt him. After getting to know him these past few weeks, she would gladly walk on broken glass to keep from adding more stress into his life. But for as protective as she was of him, Eve was not going to have a repeat of her last relationship.

"Understood." Javí whispered in a way that completely broke Eve's heart. She took her hand away from his cock and wondered if she had completely wrecked their friendship. A part of her knew that she was lying to herself about her feelings for him, but distance was as much for his protection as it was for hers.

"Remember to page me, okay. Maybe we could grab a drink after?" Eve asked as she tried to get him to look her in the eye again. "My taxi is probably waiting for me outside..."

Javí nodded but, before she could leave, he took her hand and stopped her. Without words he pressed a soft lingering kiss to her forehead. Eve closed her eyes and felt a warmth spread through her entire body that completely took her breath away. Javí poured so much of his heart into the way that he touched her. Eve had never met a man like him.

"Have fun, Eve." Javí murmured as he kissed her forehead one last time.

"I probably won't." Eve whispered back before she collected all her self control and left to catch her cab. But the second she exited the building, Eve knew that she was making a mistake. She took a deep breath and used the ride to the restaurant to put her game face on and play the part of the blushing blind date.

But Eve couldn't help but feel as though she had left a part of herself in that hallway with Javí and she wanted to get it back as soon as possible.

---------------------------

Colleen was right; Agent Daniel Van Ness was 100% Eve's type. He was funny and charming and so hot that he had the wait staff eating out of the palm of his hand as they ordered their food. It helped that he never once mentioned her family or politics and treated her like a real person. That was a rare quality to find in the men that she usually had to socialize with.

He was also really easy to talk to. So much so that, after about 15 minutes, Eve couldn't believe that they had just met. Her and Daniel had so much in common it was uncanny. It was really the best set up that Eve had ever been on.

The only two problems were - One, Eve couldn't stop thinking about the way Javí had kissed her forehead before she left. And two, Daniel was utterly and completely in love with his estranged wife.

Eve wasn't exactly sure how the subject of his wife had come up. But before she knew it, Daniel had started seeing Eve more as his marriage counselor than his hot date for the evening. Which was a relief to Eve because she really didn't want to hurt the guy's feelings when she had to let him down easy afterwards.

"I'm sorry." Daniel laughed at how ridiculous he was being. "This isn't exactly the dream date that Colleen had planned for us, huh?"

"It's fine." Eve playfully sang out as she took a sip of her wine. "Your wife sounds wonderful, by the way. I'm sorry that she wouldn't come to Colombia with you. I probably would have really liked her."

"You would've." Daniel attested while he sipped his beer. "But I'm sure she's gunna serve me divorce papers the second that I get back to the states." He sadly sighed as he shook his head. "She's a passionate all or nothing kinda woman."

"My favorite kind." Eve winked, implying that she was that kind of woman, as well. "You're obviously crazy about her and that doesn't come along very often. I'm far from a relationship expert, but my advice is not to give up on her so easily. Some things in life are worth fighting for."

"Even if she wants to divorce me?"

"From what you've told me, she could've been bluffing with her ultimatum." Eve shrugged. "She might have just been trying to get you to stay with her. I've never been in love. But I've heard that it can make you do some really crazy desperate things."

"You're right about that." Van Ness chuckled while he thought about his wife back home. "When we first got together you wouldn't believe the stupid things I did to get her attention. Wait - you've really never been in love?"

"I got close a few times." Eve admitted while she played with her wine glass, not wanting to go into too much detail. "But nothing to really write home about."

"Well, I'm a little jealous." Daniel chuckled as he dug into his food. "Love can drive you absolutely crazy sometimes."

"I'll take your word for it." Eve smiled as she watched him eat and wondered if Javíer had forgotten to page her. For as lovely as Van Ness was, she really wanted to get back home and finish what Javí had started in their hallway. The tender way that he had kissed her before she left had her longing for more of the same loving attention.

"Not hungry?" Van Ness asked with his mouth full, obviously not trying to impress her anymore now that they knew they weren't going to work out as a couple. "Colleen was right, the food here is awesome and you've barely touched your plate."

"I'm actually waiting for a -" No sooner had the words left her lips; the sound of her pager rang out and Van Ness started laughing at her.

"Let me guess?" He chuckled as he wiped his mouth with his napkin. "Is that your backup emergency calling?"

"Busted." Eve laughed along with him. "I'm sorry, you're great and all...Do you mind?"

"Not at all. But here, give him a call. Instead of finding a payphone." Van Ness suggested while he dug into his pocket for his bulky office issued cell phone.

"How do you know it's a him paging me?" Eve questioned him with a comically raised eyebrow.

"Well, I'm assuming that you're straight." 

"You assume correctly." Eve giggled.

"You forget that I'm an investigator. Your eyes lit up the second you saw the number. That, and the hickey you tried to cover up on your neck." Van Ness knowingly smiled at her but laughed loudly when her eyes went wide and she instinctively covered the mark with her hand. "I'm not offended if you want to call it a night. I can't dance anyway and I think we've hung out long enough to make Colleen happy."

"Thanks." Eve sighed. "You're a really nice guy."

"I know, I know. 'It's not you, it's me' and all that jazz." Van Ness teased her and pretended to break up with her. "I'm going to head to the restroom. Call your guy. It's not that late."

"Javí?" Eve smiled into Daniel's cell phone when Javíer answered his phone on the first ring.

"How is your night going?" he asked her in a low voice. Eve could tell that he was smoking on the other end of the line and it
