Tova’s brain wasn’t working right. All she could do was cling to Marcus. God, he felt so good, so warm, so solid, so safe. She never wanted to leave the circle of his arms.

“Don’t let me go,” she whispered against his skin, voice shaking. “Please, don’t let me go.”

Now that the ordeal was over, her adrenaline had crashed, and she couldn’t stop trembling.

He pushed to his feet, and Tova locked on to him like a monkey, arms at his neck, legs around his hips. Still, she couldn’t get close enough. She knew there were other people here, maybe—probably—people he knew, but she just couldn’t let go.

“I’ve got you,” he murmured, holding her tight. “You’re okay now.”

He carried her all the way to the house, his sexy, deep voice smoothing away all the tight ripples along her nerves. His hair was short and baby soft. She might not have gotten a look at his body, but it damn well felt like warm granite against her own. And hell, he smelled like 100 percent man.

Nothing like a little distraction to chase terror away.

By the time he took the stairs to the front porch and sat down on the sofa in the living room, Tova felt like she’d found a sliver of her sanity. She kept her head buried against his shoulder, peeking over her arm only enough to see where they were going. He sat, sinking into the sofa’s cushions. Tova shifted tighter into his lap. Fisted one hand in his hair, one in the back of his shirt. She had to be choking him, but he didn’t complain.

“When she’s settled,” a female voice said, “we should get her checked out by a medic. I’m going to check on the pursuit.”

Then silence closed in, the voices and footsteps distant.

Her heart kept up a relentless beat in her ears. “Oh my God.” She wasn’t sure how many times she’d repeated that phrase between the time she’d thrown herself at him in the street and now. Close to a thousand, minimum. “You feel so good.” She squeezed her eyes tight against the burn of tears. “Thank you for coming.”

“Honey,” he said, his voice warm, compassionate, but serious. “Did they hurt you? Do you need a hospital?”

She shook her head as shivers continued to rack her body. Marcus pulled a blanket from the back of the sofa, curving it around her shoulders. Her world righted and stopped spinning. The trauma was over. She was safe. Marcus was here. Everything was okay.

Tova let the tension flow from her body.

“I—I’m okay.” Her mind drifted over her body, noting pain, but found more pleasure at every place she and Marcus intersected. The trauma was over. She was safe. Relatively unharmed. Freaking lucky. Yeah, she was okay. Slowly, she released her rabid hold on him. “They just banged me around some. Pansy sonsofbitches…” She choked out the last in a weak laugh, then sucked air through a tight throat. “They just…tried to scare me. I’m fine.”
