Chapter Sixty Three
She had to gather her courage to say, "But you do want me"
His expression turned wry. "I'm breathing, aren't I?" he asked.
Whew. Okay, then. Now they were making progress. "Then react a little" she said. She grabbed him by his upper arms and tried to shake him. Of course he didn't move.
"I don't want to hurt you" he said. "I don't want you to regret any —"
She reached up and covered his mouth with her fingers. "I don't have any regrets" she said. "I want this. I want you. Just for a few minutes, I want to forget everything that is happening"
She felt the battle of wills within him. Would the man win or the warrior? She waited until the tension in the room made it difficult to breathe. Finally, she decided it was going to be a long, lonely day.
She stepped away from him. "All right. I get the message" she said softly. "Thanks for all your help"
He nodded, he wanted t

"Asher? Where are you? There's somebody in the house," she said, hearing the quaver in her voice."It's me." he said."But—what are you doing?" she asked clearly confused."Sitting on the living room sofa," he answered, the simple sentence sounding provocative.She stared down the hall, still unable to see him. "If you're in the living room, why are you calling me?" she asked."Ermmm, sometimes people can communicate better on the phone than they can in person." he said.She felt the air whoosh out of her lungs."Are we having trouble communicating?" she asked. She asked."Well, there are things I want to say to you. That I wish I had said to you. But I find my tongue getting all twisted up," he said.She'd had similar feelings. "You do?" she whispered."

He laughed again. She loved that laugh. It was yummy. Like hot fudge on vanilla ice cream. But she wasn't going to make another mistake and tell him that. A part of her wanted to go slow this time, in case he suddenly decided that what they were doing was wrong.It didn't feel wrong one bit. She hoped he realized that too.He was right. Talking on the phone unleashed her inhibitions in a way she might have found shocking, if she'd had time to be shocked."Are you wearing the T-shirt and shorts you put on this morning?" he asked suddenly."Yes. Why?" she asked."I want to picture you as accurately as I can. You said you were aroused. Are your nipples standing up? If I were there in the bedroom with you, could I see them through your T-shirt?""T-shirt and bra!" She said. She looked down and saw the twin points outlined by the soft fabric. The bra did nothing to hide

He spoke low, urgent words in her ear. "Sweetheart, don't keep anything back from me, I'm greedy. I want everything you're willing to give me.""I…" she started again. "Peach? I don't know. I never thought about it.""Are they very sensitive right now?"She swallowed. "Yes.""So tell me what feels good.""Please, Asher, I can't." Kimberly said."Of course you can." he said."So what would you like me to do to those pretty peach nipples? Circle each of them with one finger? Would that make them harder? Tighter? Needier?"She answered with a little moan."Now that they're harder, do you want me to take them between my thumbs and fingers? Pull on them? Squeeze? How hard should I squeeze?""Some…" she managed to say."Do it for me." he said.
HER BODYGUARD Chapter Sixty Seven
Was he just having some fun with her? It certainly hadn't sounded that way. It had sounded like he'd been totally involved in what they were doing. It sounded like he'd enjoyed himself as much as she had. But she knew that men were perfectly capable of taking advantage of women... Everyone was capable of doing that actually.Could Asher Adams be that kind of guy?She didn't think so. But there was no way to be sure—except by getting to know him better. And he'd just made that a whole lot harder.On the other hand, she knew he was inviting her to come out of the bedroom when the rich aroma of fresh-brewed coffee drifted down the hall and wafted under the door.She dragged in a deep breath. He'd put on a pot of some blend that smelled very, very good. Getting up, she walked stiffly to the bathroom and ran a comb through her hair. Telling herself she couldn't hide forever, she walked slowly down the hall to the k

"We might be here a little longer. I should go back to your house to get more of your things.""Oh, right. I wasn't thinking about that." Kimberly said. "Tomorrow." he said. When she pulled out her chair and sat down, some of the tightness in his chest eased."And I should question you some more." he said. Her head jerked up. "About what?""I don't get why they keep coming back for you" he said. "Their plan failed, why do they keep coming back for you? It has to be someone who knows you. Someone who knows your dad is loaded...Maybe someone with a plan..maybe some kind of grudge. I don't know. You have to think hard, is there anyone you suspect?" She turned her coffee mug in her hands. "You want me to dredge up every little thing? Well, one time at the grocery store a man and I both wanted the same space, and he shook his fist at me." she said sarcastically. "Come on" Asher said. "Be serious" "I am being serious" Kimberly replied. "The truth is that I have no idea who this people

She moved so fast, Asher barely had time to brace himself for her weight. Not that she weighed anything at all. She was soft and sweet and she smelled so incredibly inviting--like a woman aroused. Like feminine heat and excitement.Her brushed-cotton gown tangled around his legs when he turned and pinned her beneath him. He felt her body sigh into his, her slim legs parting, her pelvis arching up. In the next instant, her hands cupped his face and she kissed him. It wasn't a gentle kiss. She ate at his mouth, hungry and anxious and needy.So many feelings swamped him. Lust, of course, since Kimberly always inspired that base craving, even when she wasn't intent on seducing him. And need, a need he didn't like acknowledging, but one that was so powerful, so all-consuming, he couldn't minimize it as anything less than what it was.But first and foremost was tenderness, laced with a touch of relief that he wouldn't have to pull b

Her breasts were still heaving and her heartbeat thundered against his chest. Asher placed one last gentle kiss on her open mouth, then lifted himself away to reach for his pants. He fumbled in the pockets until he found his wallet and located a condom. When he turned back to Kimberly, he saw her watching him, her dark eyes so wide they filled her face. Her bottom lip trembled as she slowly drew in uneven breaths. Damp curls framed her face and her expression was wary.She was probably a bit embarrassed by her unrestrained display. He didn't have time to soothe her, though. He needed to be inside her, right now, feeling her body clasped tight around his erection just as it had clasped his fingers. With the help of the moonlight, he could see her pale belly and still-open thighs.He bent and pressed his mouth to her moist female flesh, breathing in her scent and his need for her overwhelmed him. His tongue flicked out, stroking her, ras
HER BODYGUARD Chapter Seventy One
Kimberly woke a little after ten and wasn't surprised to find herself alone. Even if she and Asher hadn't gotten to sleep until almost four in the morning, he wasn't the type to stay in bed past dawn."Big ol' tough guy" she said with a yawn as she got out of bed and prepared to start what was left of her day.As she showered, she stretched her muscles that were mildly sore from the unaccustomed activity. Pain or not, she felt great. Whole, which was odd considering she had never felt anything was missing.Asher was an interesting man. Tender in bed... which she wouldn't have expected, but still tough. Just like the last time they had been together. He had held her through the night. Every time she had awakened, he had been right there, his arms around her.She told herself that it didn't mean anything. That it couldn't mean anything. They hadn't know each other long enough for it to mean anything. Y
