Chapter 20

The next morning…

Paige felt warm and snuggly. She still felt sleepy even though it was probably already late morning, judging by the degree of sunlight that shone in through the windows. When she arched her back slightly, she realized she was a bit sore. Both her muscles and…down there. She was barely awake but she smiled anyway. She knew it was one of those dopey smiles. Oh well! Sometimes a girl had to smile like that. Especially after a night like she’d just had.

Flood had her in his arms, she was flush against him. His big chest moved up and down rhythmically as he slept. More than likely tuckered out. They’d had sex quite a number of times. Catching snatches of sleep between sweaty bouts. He had worked hard! They’d also talked. Flood was sweet and sexy and everything she’d always wanted in a guy. She looked forward to spending the next few weeks with him.

It was important that they explore their feelings for one another, now that they were free. It was equally important that they take their time, despite wanting to rush into things. She was thrilled when he had bitten her. She loved where this was going, but they needed to put the brakes on a bit. Too much too soon, after all they had been through, would be silly of them. She, of all people, knew what could happen, how things could go wrong if a good thing was rushed.

“Good morning.” Flood leaned down and kissed the top of her head.

“Good morning.” She rubbed her hand up and down his chest.

“What were you thinking just then?” he asked, she could hear concern in his voice.

“How do you know I was thinking anything?”

“The subtle change in your breathing. You tensed up slightly, so I would say it’s something serious. Something you’re worried about.”

She looked up at him. His eyes softened as hers locked with his. His lids were still at half-mast, his lashes, thick and gorgeous. “I was just thinking how awesome it’s going to be to spend time with you. I was thinking that it’s a good thing we’re going to get to know each other. Are you going to have to work while I’m here?”

“My next shift is tomorrow but I plan on taking some leave days. I have many owed to me, but…” he huffed out a breath, “with everything going on with the hunters, I’m not sure I’m going to be able to take as much as I would like. I want to spend every day with you.” He cupped her jaw and leaned in for a kiss.

He was becoming really good at kissing, and in such a short time. Flood smiled as he pulled back, making her feel all mushy inside. “I’m going to make you some breakfast and then…”

“Mmmmm…” she smiled back.

“Then I’m going to—”

There was a knock at the door.

Flood frowned. “Ignore it. I’m sure they’ll go away.” He spoke louder, like he wanted the person at the door to hear.
