appreciate recovering at your house, as long as I wouldn’t be in the way.”
    Smiling a big goofy grin at her, he said, “You could never be in the way and this takes a huge weight off my mind. I’m sure you’ll be comfortable there.”
    “What about work? Who’s going to cook?” Thinking she was seriously failing at her new job calling in sick on her second day.
    “We have that covered, don’t worry about a thing,” he said. Standing, he tucked the covers around her. “I’m going to go see when they plan on releasing you so we can get you settled. My parents went home to make sure my house was ready and mom was bringing over some of her famous pies,” he said, leaning over her bed.
    He was looking deep into her eyes, Sophie blinked back at him. His eyes dropped to her mouth and a moment of indecision passed over his features. Then he brushed his lips over hers. Soft but strong, tiny shocks warmed through Sophie. She sucked in a breath at this sudden change of boundaries.
    Pulling back at her gasp, he stared hard at her and said, “Trust me, Sophie.” Then he gave her another quick kiss on the lips and walked out of the room.
    Sophie brought her hand up to her mouth. She could still feel the heat from his lips. Running her tongue over them, she realized he tasted like honey.

Chapter 13
     
    Sitting in the big black pickup truck, Sophie had resigned herself to going with the flow right now. Her head hurt too much whenever she tried to think through what was happening. So she’d decided in the best interest of her health and well-being, to just let it happen.
    Once they had said she could be released, Sophie had tried to get out of bed to use the bathroom and take a shower. Cage insisted on carrying her to the restroom and standing outside the door while she showered. Before she could ponder what she was going to wear a knock sounded on the door and a long muscled arm dropped a bag inside the door.
    “My mom stopped by your room and grabbed some clothes for you, I hope you don’t mind,” the muffled voice came through the door.
    “Thank you,” she managed, as she tried to dry around the bandage on her head. She had to keep it dry for a few days; they had used some kind of super glue to close the wound. Sophie grabbed her messy hair and pulled it into a bun on top of her head. It was the best she could do without washing it.
    Digging through the bag, she found his mom had packed a set of pajamas, flannel with bacon and eggs on them. And two sets of stretch pants and T-shirts, with the usual undergarments. His mom was smart and knew she was in no mood for dressing up while she felt so wretched.
    Opening the bathroom door, Cage was there and scooped her back into his arms and walked her to the bed.
    “You are going to throw your back out carrying me around. Put me down, I’m too heavy for you!” she squealed.
    “You’re not too heavy for me, you fit quite nice in my arms. And I can feel some particularly luscious curves pressed against me. I think I like carrying you around.”
    “Cage!” she whispered, mortified. What if one of the nurses heard him!
    Laying her on the bed, Cage leaned down and ran his nose along her neck, soaking in the fresh scent of her skin.
    “Hmm…honeysuckles,” he said tickling her throat.
    “Hospital soap, you mean,” she laughed nervously.
    “Not even that can cover your natural scent, you smell edible,” he growled placing a slightly open mouth kiss on her neck.
    Sophie sucked in a gasp. His hot wet mouth sent shivers straight to her clit. Her neck was ground zero for sexual stimulation with her, and Cage had no idea what he was starting.
    That was what she was thinking when he pulled back and sniffed again. His eyes went dark, from light blue to cobalt and Sophie could have sworn that the edges burned with a yellow ring.  He sniffed loudly and a rumble went through his chest.
    Sophie knew that the neck kisses had gotten her wet, but Cage couldn’t possibly know,
