“Nothing,” he said.

“No, seriously,” I said as he pulled out of the gas station parking lot and got back onto the highway.

“It's just, well, I was thinking that we actually make one hell of a team,” he said.

Leaning back in the seat, I found myself smiling from ear-to-ear, his words not just true, but also making me feel a warmth spread through my chest and belly.

“Yeah, we do, don't we?”

~ooo000ooo~

It was late by the time we pulled up to the hotel. A middle-of-nowhere, hole-in-the-wall place somewhere in Missouri. The place was several hours past St. Louis, where we'd stopped for a quick lunch. I had dozed off in the car while Declan kept driving, and only awoke when the engine stopped.

“We should be good here for the night,” he said. “I don't think even the goddamn FBI could find us out in the middle of his pit.”

I checked on the baby and smiled when I saw that he was fast asleep. I couldn't help but feel a small surge of joy looking down at that sweet little face with the tuft of bright red hair on top of his head. Reaching back, I stroked his cheek, marveling at how soft his skin was. I'd always known that I wanted kids of my own one day. Babies had always been one of my biggest weaknesses and I couldn't see one without hearing that ticking of my biological clock. Jack was already growing on me and when I looked at him, I felt my heart swell. It was hard not to love something so small and innocent. Declan got us checked into the hotel and we grabbed some things from the car before making our way to the room. The rooms were on the interior of the small building, rather than sitting on the parking lot, which made me feel a little safer. In Killian happened to find our car out front, there was no guarantee he'd figure out which room we were in. Not without making a scene, at least. I was confident enough to think that making a scene and drawing unwanted attention to himself was the last thing he wanted, which worked in our favor.

I carried Jack in his car seat, letting him continue to sleep. Being in the car as long as we had been, I was sure the poor little guy was wiped out. I knew I was. We walked down to the elevator and went to the second floor, carefully watching the area around us as if we expected Killian to jump out of every potted plant or step around every corner we passed. We were bordering on the paranoid. As far as I could see though, we were alone. Since it was already late, and most travelers were already tucked in for the night, I had a feeling that Killian or his men would have stuck out like sore thumbs.

We got to the room, and as soon as we were inside, Declan closed the doors and threw all of the locks on it, shutting us in good and tight. With the dead bolt in place, I let out a sigh of relief and turned on the light. Setting Jack's carrier down on the table, I collapsed on the bed and stared up at the ceiling, relishing the feeling of laying down as opposed to being stuck in the seat of that car.

As I lay there staring up at the ceiling though, that's when my mind flashed on something I'd seen, but didn't quite register at first when we'd walked in. Hitting me like a bolt of lightning, I realized there was only one bed in the room. It wasn't a double room like Declan had requested.

I sat up and looked around the room to confirm what was in my head and saw Declan standing next to Jack's carrier, looking around, an odd expression on his face. He clearly had the same realized I'd had.

“I'll take the floor,” he said and shrugged. “I'm too tired to argue with them right now.”

He sat down beside me on the bed and kicked off his shoes, sighing and groaning as he stretched his legs out in front of him. I did the same. He got up and set up the small bassinet we had purchased earlier next to the table in front of the bed. With it folded down and locked in place, he gently lifted Jack out of the carrier and laid him in the bed..

Declan stood over the child, a look of absolute rapture on his face. He didn't want to admit it and always downplayed his ability, but he liked the idea of being a father. He was gruff and a little rough around the edges, but I knew he had it in him to be a good dad. I could see that he had a huge heart and was already developing a deep love for this child who'd been unexpectedly dropped into his life.

“You know, we've already had sex, what's it matter if we share a bed?” I asked.

Declan turned to me and smiled. “Well, if you don't mind...”

He stepped over to me, taking my face in his hands, and kissed me. It took me by surprise, but it felt nice, so I didn't push him away. Instead, I pulled him into me, then pulled him down on top of me, as we both giggled like little kids. I wasn't sure what got into us, but we just allowed ourselves to get caught up in the moment. Maybe it was all the stress, or maybe, it was the fact that we worked so well together this afternoon and succeeded it rescuing his kid, but as soon as he kissed me, we couldn't seem to pull our hands off each other.

I wrapped my legs around him, and I kissed him long and hard, the heat and passion growing between us. His erection pressed against my body. We'd already had sex once, even before he'd lived up to his promise of keeping me safe. Now, that we were safe, away from his brothers and that whole situation, I wanted him even more than before. Seeing him go to such great lengths to rescue his son and to protect me at the same time – how could I not have some feelings for the guy? He proved to me that he was not just a man of his word, but a man with a good heart. Maybe even a man who cared a little bit about me.

We stripped each other down in record time, throwing our clothes all over the room carelessly, giggling and touching each other like horny teenagers doing it for the first time. Jack slept peacefully in the small bassinet. –Declan kissed his way down my neck, then slid his tongue along my collarbone and finally down to my breasts. He set my body on fire when he started to suck on my nipple, his sapphire eyes staring up at me, as if to watch for a reaction. I ran my hands through his hair, as I arched upward, whimpering with need as he rolled my stiff nipple around his tongue.

Declan moved lower, kissing all the way down my tummy, gentle, sweet kisses, his beard tickling my skin as he went. He moved lower still, kissing and nibbling my inner thighs until I gasped, my legs quivering at his touch.

He stared up at me, and I looked down at him and watched, the fire inside of me burning bright as he dove between my legs. His tongue flicked against my clit, sending spasms of pleasure coursing through my body. I gasped out loud as his hands moved along my sides, sliding upward until they came to my breasts. His fingers found my nipples, and he played with them while going to town with his tongue down below.

“Oh God that feels so good,” I sighed.

I leaned back against the bedding, my eyes fluttering with pleasure as Declan worked his tongue all over my clit. He circled it, teased it, and judging by the sparkle in his eye and the muffled sounds he was making, he seemed to enjoy every second of eating me out. He was slow and deliberate in his movements, savoring my pussy, taking his time to lick every inch of it before thrusting his tongue between my lips, filling me up with it.

I arched my body upward, groaning as he fucked me with his tongue.

“Fuck me, Declan,” I cried out. “Please, I need you inside of me.”

Declan didn't take my commands to heart though. Instead he continued fucking me with his tongue, staring up at me as he licked and sucked my hot, wet opening, filling me up with his tongue. His fingers continued playing with my nipples, pinching them a little too hard. I gasped, but the pain actually intensi

fied the pleasure, and that's what pushed me over the edge.

My hands found the back of his head, and I pushed him down into me as the pressure inside of me built to a crescendo. I suddenly needed him deeper, closer, and my legs latched onto his shoulders at the same time. I raked my nails along his scalp as he continued working his magic with that golden tongue of his.
