Chapter Twenty-Eight

When Leighann started to emerge from her slumber a few hours later, her backside and feet were freezing, but her face was surprisingly warm. Her eyes widened in shock and horror when she realized she was flush up against Enrique, and her face was tucked into the crook of his neck, his right arm draped over her hip while his left wrapped around the pillow under his head. Oh man, he smells so good! Wait, WHAT! How did I get here? How do I get OUT of here?

Her mind swirled at her predicament. She was not a woman who climbed into bed with men. This was an entirely new situation for her, and she wasn’t sure how to remove herself. Did she simply roll over and stretch like she had just woken up and nothing had happened? Or did she inch away and pretend to sleep until he awoke with a respectable distance between them?

She didn’t have time to decide on the best course of action because a chuckle shook Enrique’s chest, alerting her that he was, in fact, awake.

“Morning, Sunshine.”

For a moment, she debated pretending to sleep a little longer until her brain had had sufficient time to process the situation, but Enrique took that option right off the table when he gently swept her long blond hair away from her face to reveal her flaming red cheeks.

“I know you’re awake, princess. No use pretending. I can feel your eyelashes fluttering against my skin. I don’t mind being your nose warmer, but it looks like you may have gotten a little overheated by the flush on your cheeks,” Enrique teased.

Leigh swatted him on the arm and rolled away, coming to a seated position back on her side of the mattress. “A gentleman would never comment on the flush of an embarrassed woman, you scoundrel.”

“Sweetheart, I have been called many things; gentleman has rarely been one of them. Come to think of it, I’m pretty sure Hannah is the only one who has ever called my brothers or me that, and it was more of a “say it enough times, and it may come true” kind of thing. Relax. I was teasing you. You have nothing to be embarrassed about. It is freezing in here, and at some point, during our precious few hours of sleep, your body sought out the only warmth available: me. Personally, I’m grateful. I’m not sure when you rolled over here, but the shivers racking my body were making everything hurt a lot worse. Then, all of a sudden, they stopped. It’s entirely possible your nurturing side slid over here, not for your sake but for mine. Either way, we managed to stay warm long enough to grab some sleep, and for the record… we had all our clothes on. This was a survival huddle, nothing more.” His smile was warm and tender, not the charming, seductive one he had used to get his way so many other times.

“Glad I could help. Now, order of business.
