Megan

I can’t believe I let him take me so soon.

My mind is screaming that I’m a lunatic while my heart sings with praise. Jordan is…magnificent. He’s caring, kind, compassionate. Overbearing, egotistical, sometimes rude.

“Tell me something,” Jordan says from beside me.

“Hmm.” I can barely be bothered to open my eyes. His fingers drawing circles on my back relaxes me.

“When you heard my name”—that grabs my attention—“you looked like you were being forced to suck on a lemon. Why?”

Sitting up, I draw the sheet around my chest, not wanting to admit what I was about to. Playing with the material, I finally say, “You were in the newspaper, years ago. I don’t even know why your name stuck with me. It was a stupid tabloid.”

“What’d it say?”

“It was an accusation about abusing a girlfriend.” I can’t bring myself to look at him. With the way he behaves towards me, I have no doubt it was just that, an accusation. I feel stupid for even thinking about it at all.

“Megan, look at me.” He lifts my chin up with a finger. “Her name was Sara Ward. We dated three times. Never slept together, and when I broke up with her, she made up the bullshit story to get some attention and money.”

“I didn’t think you did it,” I say quietly. I don’t really care who she is or was to him.

“Now, maybe you don’t. But it stuck with you so you must have wondered at some point.”

“Did you get into trouble?”

“Oh, the press crucified me.” He laughs like it was no big deal. “The company ripped me a new one”—he kisses my palm—“and the cops brushed her off. There was no physical proof on her body or in picture form.”

“It doesn’t bother you?” I frown. I’d be horrified.

“It did at first, but after a while, I just let it roll off my back. I work with the military on a daily basis; someone is always going to try and discredit me. Whether it’s personal or professional is another story.

“Oh. Your job sucks then.”

His laughter is contagious. “Yeah, some days it does.” Running a finger along my cheek, he holds a tender look on his face as he asks, “How about we get some food into you and peanut?”

Nodding just as my stomach makes its desire known, I ask, “Where are we going?”

“I thought we could stay here. Talk, relax, swim.”

The heated look in his gaze speaks about doing so much more. “I’ll go shower while you order.”

His laughter follows my scattering feet to the tiny bathroom area. As soon as the water hits my body, I feel every aching muscle from our lovemaking and smile in remembrance. His rough hands as he held me sweetly is something I’ll treasure forever.
