things that you could do that would help you to double your in- come. You can write more than 20 answers, but you must write a minimum of 20. Your first answers will probably be simple and obvious. You could write, “work harder,” “work longer,” “upgrade my educa- tion,” “improve my skills in specific areas,” and so on. They will be easy. The next 5 to 10 answers will be harder. The last 10 answers will be excruciatingly difficult, like squeezing water out of a stone. But to get the most out of this exercise, you must force yourself to continue writing until you have answered the question 20 differ- ent ways. You can play with these answers if you like. For example, you can write the exact opposite of one of your earlier answers.You can also generate ridiculous answers as well. ccc_tracy_9_154-178.qxd 6/23/03 3:38 PM Page 173
stopped me with that ferocious grasp on my hip. "Slow," he warned again, with an authoritative bite that sent lust pulsing through me. I lowered, taking him into me again, feeling an oddly luscious soreness as he pushed just past my limits. Our eyes locked on each other as the pleasure spread from the place where we connected. It struck me then that we were both fully clothed except for the most private and intimate parts of our bodies. I found that excruciatingly carnal, as were the sounds he made, as if the pleasure was as extreme for him as it was for me. Wild for him, I pressed my mouth to his, my fingers gripping the sweat-damp roots of his hair. I kissed him as I rocked my hips, riding the maddening circling of his thumb, feeling the orgasm building with every slide of his long, thick penis into my melting core. I lost my mind somewhere along the way, primitive instinct taking over until my body was completely in charge
"Okay, this isn't half bad," I admitted. But Edward was staring toward the doors, and his face was angry. "What is it?" I wondered aloud. I followed his gaze, disoriented by the spinning, but finally I could see what was bothering him. Jacob Black, not in a tux, but in a long-sleeved white shirt and tie, his hair smoothed back into his usual ponytail, was crossing the floor toward us. After the first shock of recognition, I couldn't help but feel bad for Jacob. He was clearly uncomfortable -- excruciatingly so. His face was apologetic as his eyes met mine. Edward snarled very quietly. "Behave!" I hissed. Edward's voice was scathing. "He wants to chat with you." Jacob reached us then, the embarrassment and apology even more evident on his face. "Hey, Bella, I was hoping you would be here." Jacob sounded like he'd been hoping the exact opposite. But his smile was just as warm as ever. "Hi, Jacob." I smiled back. "What's up?" "Can I cut in?" he asked tentatively, glancing at Edward for the first time
