Lear shook his head. He knew Harriet was trying to be polite, but he wasnât raised that way. Royalty or not, Lear took care of people. âNo, this is your house. You should sleep in your own bed. Besides, I meant what I saidâIâm a gentleman, and I canât have a lady sleeping on a couch while I am comfortable in a bed. Plus, even though Iâm not with the FUC, I have this innate need to want to protect you from this Zagan guy.â
Harriet let out a sigh. âNot you too.â
His brows furrowed. âWhat do you mean?â
âEveryone sees me as this fragile thing, but Iâm not. I really am capable of protecting clients from danger. I know my life is meant for better things than just being behind a desk.â
He stroked her hair again before resting his palms on her cheeks. âIâm not saying that you arenât capable of protecting me. What Iâm saying is that I care about you so much that I want to do everything in my power to keep you safe. I like you, Harriet, a lot. And it would hurt me greatly if anything happened to you. Thatâs all that I meant.â
That was just the beginning of how he felt about her, but he couldnât say more. He wanted her. He was sure that his travels to FUCNâA had been for a reason and that heâd met up with her so soon because fate had brought them together.
She was his true mate, and that desire coursed through every fiber of his being. There was no mistaking what was happening. He was falling for her. He wanted to shout that from the rooftops and tell the world that she was his.
He had never had this need with any other woman before. All the women of Skyros were like sisters to him. And he did have a need of wanting to protect them, but Harriet was different. Unlike his sister of Skyros, he wanted to rip Harrietâs clothes off. He needed to ravage every inch of her glorious curves. To kiss and suck on the lips of her folds and to plunge his rock-hard sex inside of her and make her bud sing glorious praises all evening long.
âI care about you too, Lear. And thatâs why I want you in my room tonight. You are a prince, and your father, the king, hired me to protect you. That means Zagan has to come through me first. Iâm not going to let anything happen to you on my watch. Now please, let me show you to my room so you can get some sleep.â
He nodded, not knowing what else to say, and followed her into her bedroom, where she turned down the bed.
She should be naked and inside those sheets!
âThe bathroom is through there in case you want to freshen up. Let me just grab my PJs and a pillow and blanket, and Iâll be out of your way,â Harriet said with a smile.
âWho said anything about you being in my way?â
âI just meant it as a figure of speech.
