MONSTER

“Let me look.” Monster appeared in the door of the kitchen.

I raised my face to meet his eyes, the ice pack still pressed against my rapidly swelling face. I tried to smile but it just hurt too damn much.

More gently than I had ever thought possible, he moved my hand down. With me sitting on the countertops, we were at eye level. His were dull, washed out. I had never seen them like that before. Tilting up my chin, he studied the marbled bruise that was already spreading across my face.

Not even expertly applied make up was going to be able to hide it.

“Shit.” He swore, stepping back. “That's gonna leave a nasty bruise. Nothing broken though, right?” His eyes flicked towards Gypsy who was washing her hands at the sink. I didn't know why he was looking at the little hippy chick but he seemed to be waiting for her to reassure him.

“Nothing broken, Monster. Angela is going to be sore for a while but there's no permanent damage.” Turning, Gypsy gave me a wide smile. It was the first genuine one I had seen from her. “I was a doctor in a past life, Angela. Now put that ice back on it like a good patient.” Her eyes locked on Monster. “Everything sorted now? Any injuries I need to check out?”

He shook his head. “The blood isn't mine.”

It was only then that I noticed the blood that coated his hands. He had obviously tried to wash it off but it stuck to the lines in the palm of his hands and around his nails. I frowned. I knew he was dangerous, that these were not particularly good men, but everyone was just going on like nothing had happened. I could still hear the party down the hallway, people drinking and laughing. Maybe this was an everyday occurrence to them. I wasn't sure how I felt about that. I had spent my whole life craving danger and now I was thrust into the middle of it, it didn’t feel like I had expected.

“Well, I'll leave you two love birds alone. Go easy on her, Monster. She's not made of glass but she's going to be fragile for a while.”

Monster didn't even look at her as she walked out of the room, kicking the door shut behind her. The moment it banged closed his hands were on my thighs, pushing them apart so he could slip between them. It would have been sexy as hell if I wasn't in so much pain.

“I didn't realise Gypsy was a doctor.” I said when the silence and the weight of his eyes on my face became too much.

“Are you really ok?”

Ok, we weren’t changing the subject. He wanted to talk about what had happened. Monster was showing real concern, he was worried about me. It was kind of sweet. It made me look at him in a totally different way. And I wasn't sure how I felt about that.

“Yeah I'm fine. Hurts like a son of a bitch but.
