cold with fury at the thought of
another man with her. Need for her curled within him. His cock was
constantly hard even from just thinking about her, and all he could
think about was taking her and experiencing a high like he’d never
had before.
“ Feel better?” Her soft
voice wrapped around him. “Had I known you wanted to get so wet,
I’d let you have bathed Kamau.”
Dane turned to her and promptly lost the
ability to talk. Aida stood there wrapped in very little material.
The top was just a spaghetti strap lilac shirt, and her shorts were
damn near nonexistent. They hugged her thighs in a way that made
him jealous.
“ Are you okay?” she
asked.
“ Fine,” he forced out from
behind clenched teeth.
She’s ours. Go to
her! Dane could feel the animal clawing at
him to escape. Aida’s eyes widened, and she swallowed.
“ I’m going to take a walk.
You’re more than welcome to join me if you want.” Without waiting
for him to respond, she headed off. Dane’s eyes zeroed in on the
place where her shorts ended and groaned when he noticed how they
barely covered the globes of her ass. Shutting off the water, he
hurried after her.
He didn’t know what to do. Condemning her to
be attached to him wasn’t fair. The moment he mated her, his
enemies wouldn’t hesitate to use her against him. So for the
moment, until he figured out how to handle this, he was destined to
be uncomfortably aroused by her, smell the scent of her and not
touch.
He wanted to touch.
He wanted to feast.
Aida pulled on her pajamas. Everything was
ready to leave for tomorrow. Sliding into bed, she allowed her
thoughts to linger on the mysterious Dane Sidorov.
“ A man like that is
something else.”
She wasn’t blind; he was attracted to her,
like she was to him. But there was something else. He watched her
with more than hunger. A few times, she’d caught him staring;
there’d been possessiveness and pure need in the depths of his
amazing eyes.
“ Something else entirely,”
she muttered as sleep overtook her.
“ Give in to me, Aida,” his
sexual tone whispered in her ear. “Let me show you how it could be.
How it should be.” Strong callused hands slid down her sides and slipped
under her shirt. Her belly tensed when the erotic touch moved up
toward her aching breasts.
“ What are you doing to
me?”
He nuzzled her neck before nipping it which
sent a jolt straight through to her pussy.
“ Say yes,” he coaxed,
teasing the undersides of her breast with his thumbs. “Tell me
yes.”
Eyes drifting closed; she sank back into
him, rubbing against his large erection.
“ Say the word, Aida.” His
voice darkly sensual and full of promise.
She flinched when a wet nose shoved her
hand. Aida groaned and sat up, opening her eyes. Two minutes before
the alarm went off. With an exaggerated sigh, she turned it off and
swung out of bed.
“ For the record, Ruger,
waking me from a dream like that isn’t nice, nor
appreciated.”
Before long she was ready to go. Walking to
the room Dane was in, she knocked softly. “Dane? Are you
awake?”
No answer.
Cracking it open a bit, she tried again.
“Dane, you awake?”
Still no answer. Aida frowned and swung the
door all the way open only to find the room entirely empty. Bed
undisturbed. Backing out, she headed for the shop. She couldn’t
explain the relief that swamped her when her gaze landed on him
leaning over the work table.
“ Morning, Aida,” he said,
looking up and meeting her gaze through strands of his black
hair.
“ Good morning. You’re up
early.”
His gaze heated as it traveled over her.
“Wanted to make sure this was ready.”
She moved closer. “And?”
“ It is.”
“ Great. Well, I’ll have
breakfast ready in a few.”
“ Right behind
you.”
She swallowed and left the
shop. Her dream all so vivid in her mind. I can’t stop imagining it was Dane.
Breakfast was quick, and soon, they were out
by her vehicle. Hands on hips, Aida stared at
