After a great deal of coaxing, Dom had gotten Eija to lie down on the sofa with him. The fatigue in her eyes had been clear since he walked in, but she’d stayed up to spend time with him despite his unexpected late-night visit. He’d half expected to walk in and find her with a man, and he’d fully expected to throw the man off the balcony if that had happened.

Sometime between a show that interviewed people who’d grown up with killers and another one recounting a detective’s past cases, she’d fallen asleep. As tired as he was, he stayed awake to watch her sleep. He wanted to hear her breathe, see her chest moving with each deep inhale and exhale.

He’d never been what some would consider a womanizer. He loved women and enjoyed their company, but he didn’t see fucking one—or as many as possible—as some sort of conquest. First love had come in the form of Ivy Lawrence, who he’d met his senior year of high school. Last he’d heard, she’d gone on to work in some genetics lab, dodging the bullet that would have shattered her life if they’d stayed together. While she’d been researching cures, he’d invested money during the day and carried out for-hire contracts at night.

So, he had no problem admitting to himself that he was into Eija. Whenever they spent time together, he walked away feeling better than good, and that she was the same fucking amazing person he’d met in Grenada didn’t help how badly he wanted her in every way and position imaginable.

“Eija?” He stroked her arm. “Eija, come on. Let’s go to bed.”

She grumbled something, folded his hand against her chest, and went back to sleep.

“All right. Fine.”

He eased up off the couch, lifted her clean off the cushions, and walked them back to her bedroom, the towel falling off on the way. Both their places had the same layout, so he’d known where the bathroom was even before she’d told him.

“Dom.” She groaned and let her head fall back. “I’ve already seen your muscles. Put me down before you hurt yourself.”

“You’re not heavy.” He set her on the bed and climbed over her. “I’ll grab my clothes from the dryer and go. I’ll lock up, okay?”

“No. Stay. You left me in Grenada, so you owe me a night here. Plus,” she yawned and gave his body a quick, sleepy scan, “I don’t know the entire story, but you’ve had a hard night. I can tell. Let me hold you.”

He laughed. “Think that’s supposed to be the other way around.”

“Not really. Just as much as I like your arms around me,” she yawned again, “you like my arms around you. At least, that’s what the hundreds of men I’ve slept with have told me.”

He smacked her on the ass. “Keep fucking around and see what happens.”

“Okay.” She grinned. “I will.”

She raised the covers, and he got in beside her. Instantly, the warmth of her body soothed his muscles and loosened the tension that had been docked in his chest all night.
