High Intensity
by Dara Joy


Chapter One

"III have the steak bomb."
Tyberius Augustus Evans, renowned theoretical physicist, sat back in his seat with an expression that said his universe was about to display a fascinating exposition on the principle of Chaos.
This expression was directed at the love of his life, Zanita Masterson, with whom he associated the very foundation of modem physics. From his experience in the field of Mastersonmatics, he was positive he was about to witness a wondrous spectacle.
He leaned further back in his seat to patiently observe the "event."
Blithely unaware of her paramours absorbed visage, Zanita gazed up at the waiter and asked sweetly, "It comes with cheese, onion, peppers, and mushrooms, doesn't it?"

The waiter smiled back, completely unaware of the fate that was about to befall him. The corners of Tyber's sensuous lips curved. We have ignition, Houston.
"Yes, ma'am," the young man chirped.
"I don't want any peppers." She smiled up at him.
"All right." The waiter smiled back as he wrote down "no peppers" on the order. Tyber snorted and waited tolerantly. He was not to be disappointed.
"And ... instead of regular onions, can I have caramelized ones?"
"Sure." He scratched on his pad and started to turn to Tyber for his order. Tyber did not even glance at his menu. He knew they were not even close to entering a trajectory to planet Zanita. Touchdown was nowhere in sight.
As if on cue, Zanita said, "You know whatЧI think 111 have mashed potatoes instead of the fries!"
The waiter paused ever so slightly before he began to write. "Uh-huh."
Tyber began his countdown. Ten.... nine... eight...
Zanita bit her lip as she scrutinized the menu. "Ummm ... put some avocado on that, too."
"Avocado?" The waiter's eyes popped out.
Zanita nodded. He scribbled "avocado." Tyber

snorted and continued counting. Three... two... one...
"Oh, and forget the roll."
The waiter stopped and stared at her, dumbstruck. "B-but itЧit's a sandwich!"
Lift offffff! Tyber's ice blue eyes flashed in silent appreciation of the fabulous display of entropy. With Zanita, disorder had a certain order to it.
Zanita waved her hand to indicate that such details were unimportant in her scheme of reality. Tyber grinned, displaying two curved dimples, as he turned to the dazed waiter.
"I'll have the chicken salad sandwich."
The waiter swallowed, pen poised over the tablet, ready for the Euclidian translation. "And ... ?"
"That's it."
The young man gratefully took their menus and beat a hasty retreat.
"I'm starving." Zanita smiled at Tyber as she ran the toe of her shoe over his jean-clad ankle.
Tyber cocked his eyebrow at her, then picked up a glass of water and slowly sipped it. "And here I thought this was just a ruse to make me leave the symposium."
"God, Tyber, that was so boring."
"Boring. Marcus Schlammerthimmer happens to be one of the foremost minds in nano-technology; heЧ"

Zanita slipped off her shoe and strummed her foot up the inside seam of his jean-clad leg. "Чis boring."
Tyber sucked in his breath and gave her a firm look that said he was not going to be distracted. At least not until they finished lunch. "Okay, I admit he is a bit on the long-winded side but heЧ"
Zanita wiggled her toes against his muscular thigh. Tyber had spectacular thighs. And that was but one in a line of many spectacular attributes in the extraordinary Evans package.
Zanita's thoughts went to what the man had done to her that morning when she had awakened in his bed, completely tangled up with him. His long chestnut hair, tousled from sleep, had swung forward as he leaned over her. He had used the tips of his hair to torture her mercilessly as he brought her to peak several times.
As usual, he had taken her thoroughly, displaying that innate pirate streak in him. Mischievous devil.
Unlike any other man she had ever met, Tyberius Augustus Evans, renowned eccentric, constantly made her crazy for him. More than once she wondered about the sensational level of excitement in their relationship. The passion didn't seem to be lessening at all. In fact, against all odds, it seemed to be increasing.
After many such incredible mornings with
