CHAPTER 17

Her apartment house never looked so good. As Jenny pulled into the lot near her building, relief and weariness overcame her. She was dog-tired. She laughed, because after all the dogs she handled today, no wonder her arms shook. Rae opened her car door, startling her. He held out his hand, and she grabbed it like a lifeline.

“Thanks. After the day I’ve had, I need the lift.” Pulled to her feet, she sighed.

“Then allow me.”

Swept into his arms, she shrieked, laughing at the joke. She’d asked for it. “Do you plan to carry me all the way inside?”

“Nay, he will set ye on yer feet this minute!” boomed a voice from the direction of her apartment door. Gavin stood with his fists on the hips of his low-riding jeans, his glare boring into her like a super-heated drill. His heaving chest, barely contained by the black tank top, outlined every sinewy muscle.

“I said, set her down.”

Gavin’s second warning was more of a throaty growl. A shiver raced along her spine, but Rae laughed, set Jenny on her feet, and kissed the tip of her nose. Gavin’s wordless growl was both terrifying, and romantic.

Rae headed to the barn, and she walked up her apartment steps to face the grimacing Highland laird. When she reached the top step, his hand shot out, gripped her around the waist, and pulled her into his chest. It was like slamming into a steel girder. Heat pulsed from his muscular torso, and when a particularly large part of his anatomy grew rigid, and pressed against her abdomen, her toes curled.

“No one kisses ye but me, lass.” Cupping her chin with his free hand, he bent his head, but she pulled away.

“No. No way, nope. Don’t play the jealous boyfriend, just because another man finds me interesting.”

He growled, and pulled her close, again. Before she could protest, or even shove him back, he turned and pulled her inside her apartment, slamming the door. He pressed her against the wall inside the doorway, crushed her mouth, and took, and took.

His lips were soft and warm, and his hands roamed from the sensitive skin beneath her ears, to the ribs beneath her breasts. While his tongue pushed past her lips and tangled with hers, his fingers and thumbs pinched her nipples, until they grew hard, ripe, and so sensitive, she moaned. Pleasure tingled where their bodies touched, and a yearning to feel his naked flesh against her breasts nearly headed her into trouble.

He smiled against her mouth, then slowly drew his tongue and lips away. “Ye be most tantalizing, love. I doono’ know how long I am destined to live in this time, but I see no reason to waste a minute of it.”

As if she’d stepped beneath the cold spray of Faerie Falls, she glared up at him. “I am nobody’s momentary pleasure.”

He must have sensed the anger in her voice. When he loosened his grip, she shoved against his chest. It was like trying to move an army tank.
