Wanting to pull him off her the minute his hands touch her, my hands clench tightly. Deciding for his own health that it’s time to make my presence known, I ask as I move to stand beside Gia, “And you are?”
Yeah. She’s with me you asshole.
I smile not letting my thoughts show through.
“Um.” The doctor clears his throat in nervousness and takes a step back. “I’m Doctor Samuel Hodges. I’m a friend of Gia’s. A good friend.”
“Well, I’m Hunter. Her very good friend,” I reply while wrapping my arm around Gia’s shoulders. I want the creep to get on his way so there isn’t any chance of him touching my woman again. My woman! What the fuck?
“Oh, well. I’ll see you around Gia. Maybe when you’re alone.”
I watch him turn tail and run off in the opposite direction as I feel an elbow hit my mid-section.

Gia
What the hell is Hunter doing scaring Sam off? Sam is kind of a friend. We’d been good friends once-upon-a-time, but we’d gone our different ways until recently. Every time I’ve bumped into him apart from this morning, I’d started to feel it was more of an “arranged” meeting.
Although I’m angry with Hunter for chasing Sam off, I feel somewhat relieved. He doesn’t need to know that though. I like the fact that he’s acting jealous. I’ve never had anyone act jealous over me before, and I like the feeling. Especially when it’s the delicious guy standing, lost in his own thoughts beside me.
Hunter wordlessly ushers me into the elevator so I press the button for the third floor before I settle back against the opposite wall to Hunter.
I haven’t been able to get him out of my head since we’d danced on Saturday night because it had turned me upside down. The feel of his body against mine had released something inside me that I haven’t felt before, and I’m desperate to feel like that again. If only he’d co-operate.
I’d snooped around a bit and found out some things about him. He’s thirty-five years old—not as old as my father but a lot older than me. I also learned that he isn’t just a bodyguard, he’s a US Marshal. To be more precise, his boss is my Uncle Colin and it looked like he was damn good at his job.
The fact that he’s hot is evident to everyone but he has an air of love ‘em and leave ‘em about him. It’s a mixture that I find both exciting and scary since I’m so different. I know I’m young but I don’t want the one-night stand. I want a guy to call my own. A guy I can share things with. A guy to rely on to always be there for me. My father has always been there, sometimes too much, but that’s a different kind of caring. I want to be touched—set alight with passion—the way I’ve been feeling with Hunter.
As I study him, he casually leans against the wall with his ankles crossed, sunglasses shoved up on the top of his head and his eyes fixed on me.
I feel a blush creep up my neck and into my face as I hold his intense gaze. He looks at me like he wants to eat me—intense.
Very slowly Hunter uncurls himself from the elevator wall and prowls closer to me. My heart feels like it’s about to jump out of my chest—not in fear—in excitement. With just one look he makes my toes curl, my pussy wet and my core throb.
“I’m supposed to be protecting you,” Hunter leans down to whisper into my ear as heat licks through me, “but all I can think about is being buried so deeply between your thighs that neither of us can think. Only feel.”
He slides his large hands around my waist, and lets them rest on my bottom. He presses down, which brings our hips together.
“But then I remember our ages. I remember that you’re just an assignment.” I flinch at his words, and hope he doesn’t notice. “No matter how badly I crave to touch you—to give you pleasure—I can’t do that. I shouldn’t even be touching you now, but fuck, you smell so good.”
I moan when Hunter nibbles along my neck and buries his face in the curve between my shoulder and neck. He breathes in where I’d lightly sprayed my favorite scent before leaving the house.
Unable to just stand still, I raise my hands and caress down his taut back to his butt. My hands slip beneath his T-shirt and I moan when he shudders under my hands, his cock hardening against my hip.
“Well, what a good morning you’re having, Gia,” Ella one of the nurses comments.
My first instinct is to separate from Hunter, but he keeps me in his arms, which feels good. It feels so good that I don’t want to face my friend because I know the interlude in the elevator will be over the minute one of us opens our mouths.
Ella clears her throat. “You two do know the doors have opened and you have an audience, right?”
As I slowly pull away, I make sure Hunter’s T-shirt covers his erection because he isn’t exactly small. This move causes Hunter to hiss between his teeth as he pushes me out of the elevator into Ella who has one of my favorite patients, Summer, in her arms.
“Hi Ella. Hi Summer, I was coming to visit with you today,” I say, with a light cheerful note in my voice.
“Did you bring me…a new…friend…today?” Summer asks between deep breaths through her oxygen mask.
“I did. This is Hunter.” I grab hold of Hunter’s hand and am relieved when he slips his fingers between mine, giving my hand a gentle squeeze. It helps me focus. “Hunter, I’d like you to meet Summer and my friend, Ella. Summer’s nurse.”
