As the days passed, Rick continued to improve. His sessions in the therapy room were more intense, his walks longer. He still insisted she keep her arm around him when they walked, although he certainly didn’t need support.

“This is just an excuse to get my hands on you, Red,” he whispered as he kept her pulled into his side, his arm wrapped around her shoulder.

She didn’t argue. She loved the feel of his muscles under her hand, the flex and movement. The heat of him. He was all male, leashed power, even in his present condition. Just leaning into him, his arm over her shoulder, made her feel warm and protected. Kelly had never met a man who aroused her so easily and so completely, who made her want him as much as Rick Latrobe did. Their nights were unbelievable. For a man recovering from a major injury, he managed to accomplish amazing things in bed.

Xena was their shadow every step of the way, growling low in her throat if someone she didn’t know entered their space. After the first time it happened, Janet Houseman suggested they take Rick down in the elevator to a secluded garden for his exercise.

“It won’t do my reputation much good if my patients get eaten by a large dog,” she joked.

In the garden area he took every opportunity to touch her. “I wish you could take off your clothes and let me see you naked in the sunlight, Red.” Rick’s voice was low and filled with need.

Her own body responded to the image he created, nipples hardening and moisture gathering between her thighs. “I think that might cause a bit of a disturbance, don’t you?”

His smile was straight from the devil. “Yes, but it would be worth it, don’t you think?”

Then she cocked her head. “Red? You called me that before. I like it, but where did that come from?”

He brushed the silky strands of hair that had escaped from her braid. “From here. It’s like a flame, the most beautiful hair I’ve ever seen.”

Kelly laughed. “You have such a smooth line.”

He grinned. “Yeah?” Then he sobered. “It’s not a line, Red. I mean every word.”

He was leaning against a tree at the moment, Kelly’s body pulled up to his. She could feel every hard ridge and plane, every dip and swell. The thickness of his shaft as it pressed against her, swelling at the touch. His mouth had captured hers in one of the drugging kisses that made her forget even where she was and left her body quivering with need.

They broke the kiss only when they reached the point of possible oxygen deprivation. Rick cupped her face gently between his hands and dusted her skin with light kisses. Every place his mouth touched her she felt the heat of a flame. When he put his lips on hers, she boldly licked at his mouth, then opened for his welcome tongue.

“We’re going to drive ourselves nuts,” he rasped. “I don’t know if a hundred years would give me all the time I want with you.
