Chapter Fifteen

Gabriel

He’d spent too long with her.

In multiple ways, he knew he shouldn’t have sequestered himself in her room for the entire rest of the day. They had left only once, and that was to get food. The rest of the day had seen themselves lay naked together, either resting, or mating. It hadn’t been his plan, and he doubted it had been hers.

Hell, I didn’t even have any intentions of sleeping with her. It just sort of…happened.

Not for the first time Gabriel wondered at what point his irritation with the journalist had turned into infatuation. He wasn’t dumb enough to deny that it had—the evidence of that had been in front of him for over twelve hours the day before. Not that he considered physical attraction a sign of emotional bonding, but the way with which they had lain with each other had been all the sign he needed.

He understood her, and she him, in such a basic, primal way that he wasn’t sure he could find words to describe it. She just knew what he wanted. When he wanted it. How he wanted it. And apparently whatever he did to her was the same. Gabriel didn’t feel as if he knew what she wanted. He just tried to please her, and based on a couple of the conversations they’d had, whatever he did always seemed to be exactly what she was looking for.

It pleased him—and if he were honest—it also slightly terrified him at the speed with which everything had happened. One day he was trying to figure out a way to get rid of her as fast as possible, and now she was staying in a room just down a hallway from him, and they were spending every available moment in each other’s arms, clothes or no clothes.

That was why he was out and about that morning.

“Morning, Captain!”

He shook himself out of his reverie and returned the salute of the corporal walking by him.

“Jax!” he replied to Corporal Miter’s greeting. “Good to see you up and about.”

The Green Bearet shrugged. “I wasn’t wounded that badly, sir,” he said politely, reminding Gabriel that it had been several days since his patrol returned.

“Still, good to see you,” Gabriel reiterated. “On patrol or out and about enjoying the weather?” he asked, indicating the bright blue sky overhead.

“Patrol, sir. Needed to get back in the groove.”

“Very good. Carry on,” he said, and the corporal saluted once more and walked off, continuing his patrol of the inner streets of Cloud Lake.

Gabriel breathed a sigh of relief. The appearance of Jax, the corporal who had led the patrol that was attacked the night Stephanie showed up, was a good sign. It meant he wasn’t letting the ambush and loss of his men eat him up.

And on a personal note, it had helped distract him from his bear for a few seconds, giving Gabriel a breather.

But that didn’t last much longer. Even as he acknowledged it, his bear renewed its attack. It was too worked up.
