Chapter Fourty Two
She heard the challenge in his voice, and her gaze zeroed in on the utterly decadent sight she presented as he cupped her in his palms, kneaded her skin with deep, erotic strokes that made her insides melt She leaned into his touch without thinking, helpless to do anything but respond.
She couldn't have imagined feeling this way if she'd tried. She hadn't expected him to move so fast, hadn't in her heart of hearts believed this whole idea would work out But he was here. Touching her.
He regarded her beneath heavy-lidded eyes, a look that drugged her with the promise of his next touch, a look that made it hard to draw a decent breath.
"You like how this feels." he asked. It wasn't a question, more a statement of fact that she couldn't deny. She nodded helplessly.
"What about this?" he asked again.
He caught her nipples in a firm pinch and fire shot through her li

Kimberly hated the silence between them.It was back, with a vengeance, as soon as they saw that the condom had broken.Not much later, as she was struggling with her ruined tights, buttoning up her jacket and trying to smooth her tangled hair in such a hurry.Asher leaned over the front seat and opened the glove compartment. He found a pen and a scrap of paper, on which he quickly scrawled a series of numbers.“Here.” His breath fogged on the frozen air.She took it. “What’s this?” she asked staring at the paper.“My phone number.” he said simply.For a moment, she actually thought that she’d read the silence all wrong. But then she understood. But before that she had to ask. "And why are you giving that to me?" she asked."Just in case you are.... Ermmm... You know" he said, unable to meet her gaze.She didn't underst

Because she had a thing for him. There was just something about him that called to her, something that made her wish there was hope for the two of them somehow. Hope for what? She wasn't quite sure. And deep in her heart, she feared she would never get over him... Even after she was safe and he left.And yet, she had honestly meant what she said to him, that she knew that nothing could ever happen between them.Nothing was ever going to come out of their time together. She accepted that. She had no expectations concerning him. So she was going to go home and cry out her eyes. She wasn't going to throw away her pride and dignity and do something crazy like beg him to stay or get into a relationship with her.So, yes. It had been rather a bad idea to have sex with him. A bad idea that had turned out absolutely perfect. Something beautiful and real and honest in the middle of a terrible mess. She probably should regre

“I want to apologize for the way I have been.... For being frosty,” she greeted him. “I just, well, I was very sensitive and tired that night and I kinda snapped. And it was my fault that we... Ermmm... You know. I just want you to know that I am sorry. My father tells me that sometimes I tend to get a little too into the zone and too emotional and I can lose sight of my manners.”Asher hadn’t expected an apology. He just stared at her, so she continued. “So, why don’t you come with me to the Chinese restaurant a few blocks down and we can get.... I don't know... reacquainted? You know, like the normal way”“I appreciate the offer, but you know as part of my job I’d go anyway,” he pointed out finally.Kimberly gave him a wry smile.“I’m inviting you to eat with me,” she corrected. “Not sit creepily behind me like a weird stalker.”Asher stepped back to retrieve his wallet and walked out

Kimberly looked away. "No I haven't" she said. "I wanted to wait two weeks before I took it so I could be sure about the result. But you don't have to worry" she added immediately. "I feel fine"Asher nodded. "okay" he said. "I'm here if you need me""You don't have to leave. No matter what the result is" Kimberly said.Asher nodded. But he didn't tell her that if she was carrying his child, there was no way in hell that he was going to leave.--------------------------They ate their food quickly and, soon after finishing, they were singing its praises.“I keep telling Greg that the the food here is fantastic,” Kimberly said. “This fast food queen will be coming back here with him... Just to prove my point”“Greg?” Asher asked.“Oh, sorry. Greg is a work associate. If you insist on following me around then you’ll get the chance to

Even if it was by a woman he was starting to guess might never be happy with his job performance. A woman he had no chance to be with.“You’re absolutely right,” he said with enthusiasm. “I really need to step up my game.”Kimberly started to loosen her grip, probably feeling her sarcasm backfiring, but Asher held it firm. Instead of trailing behind her, he took two long strides ahead.Now he was leading her.Looking both ways, Asher tugged her across the street to the left, in between a lag in traffic. Had they both not run, they might not have made it. Despite Kimberly's gasp of concern, Asher continued parallel to the block they’d just left before coming to the intersection.He blew through it within another pocket of pedestrians until they were at the opening of a preppy clothing store. He didn’t waste any time and ducked through its double doors, passing through an invisible cloud of loud cologne an

Kimberly finally slowed and walked at a leisurely pace down the small alley and back to the sidewalk that ran in front of the mall’s entrance. She half expected to see Asher blocking her path, huffing and ready to call her father, but as she scanned the faces she didn’t find his.Kimberly froze.Her muscles seized, her breath held.While she’d expected to see the bodyguard, she hadn’t expected to see another face she recognized. In fact, two faces she recognized.The couple that had originally spooked Asher, starting Kimberly's fun little exercise, were not only walking out of the mall, but doing so quickly. Like they too were in a hurry. This need seemed to intensify as the man looked to the left and the woman looked to the right, also seemingly scanning faces in the crowd.And then the woman stopped when she locked on to a familiar face.Hers.Suddenly Kimberly
HER BODYGUARD Chapter Fourty Nine
Kimberly closed the top latch over the door and took a step back to look at it. She heard Asher's door close.You aren’t in any danger, she thought. Don’t let his overprotectiveness worry you.But even as she gave herself the advice, she couldn’t help but feel an influx of nerves tighten her stomach.“This is why I didn’t want a bodyguard,” she muttered, rubbing her stomach. “Now I think I have problems I don’t really have. And another one that I might have” She thought about that night in his SUV once again. What was she going to do if she was pregnant? She didn't even know.Trying to forget about the man next door wasn’t as easy as she’d hoped. Talking about his past, including his job, had softened her otherwise harsh opinion of the man. He wasn’t some faceless hunk of meat sent to stalk her in hopes of keeping a potentially imaginary

Her warm breath stuttered against his neck as her arms slipped around his waist.For a second, he was lost in the sensation of her soft, firm body pressed against him.Then she pulled away. “Please don't scare me like this again” she muttered. “I have this bad feeling, like the kind I used to have before I got kidnapped, and I think that's the reason why I'm so paranoid right now.”Asher forced his brain back to her and forced himself to listen to what she was saying. "It's okay" he said. "I understand how you feel, but I'm here now. So you don't have to worry"She nodded, although she didn't look too convinced, then she turned around and went into her room.-----------------------------“Just take the test,” Phoebe pleaded. “Just get it over with so that you can move on.”“So that I can move
