Chapter Four

Dale had never wanted to touch a woman so much in his entire life. Just to have the opportunity to slide his hands along her smooth skin. Feel the texture. Memorize the dips, swells, and everything. Relearn the taste of her skin, its scent.

I mean more than the lilac smell.

He slapped a hand against the wall and reminded himself of Julie. Didn’t work out so well there, did it now? He needed to stay away, not get involved, and yet, Allie occupied his thoughts. I barely know her. I knew her in the past but she’s changed. We both have. It didn’t matter to his body or his heart, though. He wanted her.

I also need to know what the hell she meant by that fallout comment.

Readjusting his hard cock, he stood just as someone knocked on his door. He paused before he opened it and tried to think of something other than the heat in Allie’s gaze when he’d made his vow on that park bench. That had been six days ago.

“Yes?” he asked, swinging it open.

“I’m leaving now and wanted to say bye. Oh, and thank you for fixing my bike.” Tyler stood there, watching him with big brown eyes.

Dale gave him a smile. “No problem, kid, glad to help out. You take care.” A woman stood behind Tyler, her features similar to Allie’s yet colder, somehow. Harder. “Ma’am,” he said.

Her gaze moved over him, impersonal and judgmental. “Come, son. We will wait for your father in the car.”

They headed off down the hall. Tyler snuck in a tiny wave as the elevator doors cut off his view of them. Allie’s apartment was open, and Dale could now hear, easier, voices spilling to him. Low and angry voices.

Protective instincts kicked into high gear, he strode in without announcing he was there. Her kitchen was empty but he could see shadows in the living room. He paused in the passageway. Allie stood there, arms crossed and a look of disgust on her face. Along with irritation.

The man she squared off with had at least a head of height advantage over her. In seconds, Dale had taken it all in and knew this man could be a problem to Allie. Every muscle in his body was tense, and his face expressed his anger.

“You put my boy in danger again, and I will—”

“Everything okay in here, baby?” he asked, hooking his ankles as he used the doorjamb to support him, hands in his pockets, trying to look as calm as possible.

Allie looked at him, her brow quirked up swiftly before she smiled wanly. “Dale. What are you doing here?” She dampened her lips. “In my apartment.”

He pushed away with a negligent shrug and approached her.

“Who are you, and why are you in here?” the man demanded, focusing on Dale.

Dale kept his eyes on the tanned man. He walked, however, to Allie and wrapped an arm around her, this need to claim her pulsing through him with a life of its own. Her body was tense, a fact he was less than pleased with.
