I couldn’t fall asleep. I had too many thoughts flooding my mind and too many emotions flooding my heart. Even with all of my inner turmoil, I felt safe in Dash’s arms. Because of that, I didn’t make a move to get up when I felt the Blazer come to a stop, followed by the engine shutting off.

“Come on, beautiful. We’re here,” Dash murmured against my ear.

I gingerly got to my feet. My body was sore from straddling Dash for hours and my wounds were starting to ache again.

“I’ll get you something to eat and some pain medicine once we get everything inside.”

“Thank you. What can I help with?”

“Not a damn thing. Stitches, remember? Go inside and pick out a bedroom. Then plant your ass there until I come bearing food,” he said, jovially.

So, that’s what I did. The cabin was the definition of remote, but it was a lot bigger and nicer than I expected. I assumed we would be staying in something equivalent to a hunting shack, but that was not the case. This place was two stories with four bedrooms and four bathrooms. In addition to the living room, kitchen, and dining room, it had a large game room, an attached two car garage, a screened in porch with a hot tub, and a large, open deck.

I made my way upstairs and checked out the bedrooms. All the rooms were about the same size and decorated similarly, the only difference I noticed was the size of the bed in each room. I wondered if Dash and I would stay in the same room or if that was being presumptuous. We had slept in the same bed once before, but we didn’t consciously go to bed together that night. I would just err on the side of caution and pick a room with a queen size bed, leaving the king size, another queen, and two twin beds free for the picking.

Prospect Jamie brought my bags to my room. I thought now would be a good time to shower. I felt sticky and grimy from being in the back of that trailer for a few hours.

When I stepped out of the bathroom, dressed in my pajamas with a towel wrapped around my hair, I found Dash sitting on my bed, a plate a food and a drink on the nightstand, and a scowl on his face.

“What’s wrong?” I asked.

“Why did you pick this room?”

I shrugged. “Was I not supposed to pick this one? I can move to another one if it is a problem.”

“It is a problem and your things have already been moved to another room.”

“Okay…” What was his problem? He told me to pick a room. I did.

“Did you hear me say that you are mine?” he snapped. I nodded.

“That means you sleep in my bed. Doesn’t mean we have to do anything you aren’t ready for, but it does mean you sleep beside me. Especially when my number one priority is keeping you safe. You are safest by my side.
