CHAPTER TEN
The front door creaked open and there were footsteps.
Meghan knew they didn't belong to anyone she wanted to see in the moment.
Not even Layla, the new lady that pops in every now and again to check on her since sweet ol' Maria left, didn't walk like that.
For one, they were heavy and patterned and definitely belonged to a male.
A big one at that, probably with dirty blonde hair, receding hairline, reeking breath and eyes as brown as they were malevolent.
Fear clogged her throat, stealing her already shallow breath and a slight tremor shook her thin body.
Doors were being thrown open, she could hear it, and there were more footsteps now.
He'd brought people with him.
She knew who that devil in her house was and what he was looking for but he'd have to literally take her to hell to get it.
She prayed to every God listening&

Jordan stood stiff at one corner of the small waiting room, the only moving part of his physique were his eyes following Jojo's petite figure as she paced the length of the room.He didn't even notice Brad standing awkwardly at the other corner of the room nursing a fraction of unease.He wasn't acquainted with the woman in question, so the same level of tension and fear wasn't expected of him.Neither was it expected of Jordan but he'd known the woman.She'd been like a second mother to him while he was growing up because he'd spent half his time during childhood at the Collen's home either waiting for Jojo's lazy ass to get ready or dropping her off and ending up staying over.He knew exactly how Jojo felt in the moment and he wanted to go to her and hold her, she needed someone to promise that everything was going to be okay and he wanted to be her man but he couldn't. Didn't dare.

The ride to Jordan's home was quiet.Jojo stared out of the window, wondering why she'd given in to the bizzare idea of staying with him even if it was only for tonightMaybe because she had Riley to consider.Carl Stratton had dropped her off at the hospital because his family and himself were going out of town for a few days and there had been no where else to take her.Or it could be because Jordan had pulled that sexy, commanding voice on her.Riley's small body snuggled into hers and her hands instinctively wrapped around it.Apart from responding to Riley's enthusiastic greeting back at the hospital and coercing her to give in to his deal, Jordan haven't said a thing and Jojo worried that he already regretted offering in the first place.He was opening his home to his mere PA, and the added baggage of her family, of course he regretted it already.

Jojo couldnt sleep.She lay restless on her bed, still turned on from earlier in Jordan's room and frustrated from her unsatisfied desires.She felt bad because for heavens sake, she should be up worrying about her mom and the mystery behind her present condition but no she was up craving the touch of the man that was her annoying boss!The thought of getting herself off wasn't appealing to her, not when Jordan was the prize.She got off her bed, ready to chanel all the energy fueling her sexual frustration into something else.Anything other than lying here would be better.She went past the wide, sliding door and into the other room to check on Riley.Jordan had insisted that she let the little girl have her own space when he'd carried her in and without giving her a chance to negate him, he'd done as he'd suggested and carr

Jordan heard it too.The sound was foreign to him probably because it's been so long since he'd been around a child.But it had been loud enough to have penetrated the fog of passion that had cocooned Jojoba and himself.He took a deep breath in a bid to calm himself and then he gently released an already pushing Jojo who was still trapped by his body on the island top.He didn't let her jump down."Let me go," she fussed beginning to sound pissed, "that scream was from my sister and you want to carry on from where you stopped? God!"He moved, pulled her down and then dropped her hand like it was some scalding hot potato.His face closed up, losing all trace of emotion.He could have told her that he'd only held on because he'd wanted her to calm down and try loosing the 'I've just been in a heated make ou

Except everything was actually wrong when she got down stairs.Starting from the fact that against all her hoping that Jordan wouldn't be down here, he was to the alerting absence of her human buffer, also known as Riley.Of course, the damn universe had to be working against her all the while she was making up her sweet defence plans only so it could get a good laugh at her and her situation.She prayed to listening gods that Riley would just run into the room or better still just pop out of somewhere in the room like some 'jack in the box'.Jordan sat in the single sofa that faced the great view from the wide window, his attention focused on something on his phone while he idly held a mug she was sure contained black coffee with no creamer and only two sugar cubes.He looked formidable like that and even formidable looked sexy on him, power suit and all.Her eyes moved from him before he could catch her staring and focused on the more important things like searching the room and fig

Throbbing.That was the first thing Megan noticed as she tried pulling her lids apart and open her eyes.The Throbbing in her head hurt and made her wince and her hands hurt worse.She felt groggy, probably from all the pain killers and anesthetics she'd been pumped full of.Finally, there was a little success as her eyelids gave way a little and she could take in her surrounding.A hospital room.She was on a bed, and her body hurt like hell.She tried to remember how she got here and why.The memory wasn't quite clear at first but she was remembering.It hurt to remember.He'd come barging into her house and he'd asked her to give up what she had on him.He and the two younger and uglier men he'd come with had beat her up and they had laughed while they did it.When sh

Jojo felt a little lost after their visit to the doctor's office but Jordan was there, right beside her and taking good charge.The doctor's words sat like lead on her mind, heavy and very hard to digest.They picked Riley up from the kiddies waiting station that looked more like a mini toy war zone, before they went to see her mom.Her eyes had filled up again at the sight of the new white patch of her mom's right hand, covered in white.Seeing it made her feel like a failure.She'd failed to protect her family.Jordan was unmoving from beside her and his dominating presence filled the small room.Even in the small hospital room, he only had to stand and he'd exude the level of power other men fought to achieve.Stray and very distracting thought, Jo, don't you think? .
