Chapter Nine

Let Me Heal You…

Q uietly, Anatoly followed Renee up to their bedroom after the meeting, leaving behind the worries of the day. Holding his hand, she led him inside of their private quarters and closed the large white double doors shut, leaning against them as she watched him make his way over to the nightstand and carefully place his keys, guns and knives by the half-broken lamp that he had knocked over earlier.

Renee could see the exhaustion all over him. He looked haggard – in need of special care. After a morning sedated and an afternoon of pure adrenaline, his body was finally starting to beg for balance. Maybe she could help him with that.

“Long day?” she said with a smirk.

That was saying a mouthful. Anatoly glanced up at her under heavy lashes and nodded. His voice was deep and scratchy. “Very long, printsessa. The longest.” There was an edge in his voice like he had finally hit a brick wall. “Sometimes I am dumbfounded by the predicaments we get ourselves in.”

“We always manage to get out of them okay.”

Anatoly glanced over faintly cynical. His eye held hers, making her blush. “Look who’s seeing the glass half-full these days.”

“I had some help with that.”

“Well, tell whoever changed your mind that I said thank you.”

“I will.” She paused for a minute and then mocked him. “Anatoly…”

“Yes,” he answered with a croon.

“My husband said to thank you for helping me change my attitude.”

Despite his exhaustion and stress, Anatoly chuckled. Even he had to admit that was cute. He played along, glad to be in her presence. “Tell him it was my pleasure.”

One article at a time, Anatoly peeled out of his garments, first pulling off his shirt to reveal the wall of muscle that she had become so accustomed to, then unbuckling his jeans and shimmying them down his concrete legs.

Using his left foot to push down at the heel of his right boot; he wiggled it off before using the opposite foot to do the same. When he was done, he turned to her in only his black briefs and awaited her approval.

Renee felt his vulnerability, the need to be comforted, even if he would never say it aloud. She closed the distance between them and placed a cool hand on his hot skin. So silky smooth, yet so tough.

Electricity danced between their bodies with the ever so gentle gesture. Looking up into his eyes, she parted her lips and whispered to him.

“I can see you now,” she said sincerely. He was more beautiful to her than ever before.

Placing his hand on the small of her back, he pulled her in closer, making her feel his growing erection. Inch by inch, it threatened to interrupt their conversation, but painstakingly, he kept it at bay for the moment. “Am I what you thought I’d be?”

Renee’s breath caught in her chest. His pheromones were like a sheen of mist that had been sprayed over her. The closer and warmer he became, the more she wanted him.
