8.
She woke with a start in the pitch black and sat up straight. She was panting and her skin was glistening with sweat. Her heart was beating so fast she could barely catch her breath, and she reached up and touched her forehead to find it cool and wet.
She reached toward the nightstand and grasped at the bottle of spring water she had taken from the mini bar before bed and twisted off the cap before she took a big, deep sip.
She had been dreaming of being chased through the woods of the mountain by a pack of bears, and as her mind started to awaken and she remembered the events of the previous day, she leaned into the pillow and closed her eyes.
She was in trouble.
Big, big trouble.
She took another sip of her water and then placed the bottle back down before she drew her knees up to her chest and wrapped her arms around them. She felt safer cocooned slightly, as if folding her body into a small ball would somehow protect her from the outside world, like a porcupine with its spines standing on end to spear any predator that came close.
She could only think about Ryder and the conversation they had had back at the bar. She saw the intensity in his eyes all over again, she felt the animalistic heat coming out of his skin, and she felt his power and the way he wanted her.
Within seconds, she was hot under the collar and her pussy was aching, but she was also afraid. He had told her so many things, and he was right when he said that once she was alone it would be hard for her to process it all.
She was falling for someone who was dangerous.
He was part wild animal, one that was part of a pack that wanted to harm her.
She shivered.
What had she gotten herself into?
She thought back to the way she had lived her life. How she had always put her career first and had sworn off men since she had seen how her father had left her mother in a state of despair. Her mother had always told her not to trust men, and she never had… So, why did it feel so different with Ryder?
She rubbed her temples, a headache brewing deep behind her eyes. She balled herself up even tighter and willed for some internal peace.
After her and Ryder had run through the shadows of Bridge Hollow, to get her safely back to the hotel, he had kissed her at the door of her room and made sure she was inside and settled. She had longed for him after he had closed the door and said goodbye, and she had found it almost impossible to sleep. When she had finally drifted off, it had been close to 1am, and now, when she checked the clock on her cellphone, she could see that it wasn’t even 3:30am.
She had barely slept, and she felt exhausted.
Her phone was still silent and there had been no missed calls or messages from Sean.
