Being honorable was nice and all, especially in his position, but why would you want to be spanked, legally speaking?
His gaze whipped to mine, his jaw locked. He didn’t speak, but it was obvious he hadn’t wanted me to either. I wasn’t supposed to be seen—or heard.
Message received.
I let his jacket drop to the console between us and wrapped my arms around myself as I faced forward. I could be really, really quiet.
Samantha, however, could not, as the decibel on her wailing was ever so slowly being cranked. She either had a messy diaper or she was hungry or both.
Officially not your problem. Not when he wants to deny your presence.
“Not necessary, Sheriff. I didn’t even see anything except you and a companion. A baby too. Maybe a relative?”
The way Christian said it was a clear invitation for Jared to explain who the kid was, but he declined. Surprise.
Christian stepped back as the silence extended. “We can just forget about this.”
“I don’t want special favors,” Jared said gruffly. “I’ve written many citations up here myself.”
“Noted, sir, but as I said, I didn’t see anything untoward.” He cleared his throat yet again. “Other than pulling over in a no parking zone. Although it’s a nice clear night for it. For the view, I mean.”
Jared grunted.
“I’m just going to go. You all have a good evening. Elsewhere,” he tacked on, puffing out his chest before swiftly heading back to his car.
A moment later, he did a U-turn and hightailed it out of there, spitting up gravel in his wake.
“I’ll take you back to get your vehicle,” Jared said after a long moment, lifting his voice above the crying baby.
He had a remarkable ability to just talk over her. Meanwhile, I had to fight every impulse to go back there and make sure she was okay.
“As you wish.”
The demure response was so not like me. I wanted to argue. To remind him of how far we’d come in just one evening—or so I’d thought. These last few minutes were making me wonder.
Maybe it was just better to go home before the evening deteriorated further. And I’d put my underwear back on once I got in my car.
Regardless of how this ultimately went with Jared, I was investing in several quality sexpot pairs. I would not be caught in this situation again.
It was surprisingly hard to hold your ground and your chin in the air when you didn’t even have on panties.
“We should just take a pause to regroup.”
I didn’t agree or disagree. But the phrase ‘take a pause’ was more rage-inducing than I would’ve thought.
“Neither of us are acting rationally.”
My eyebrow rose. “Really? Now you’re telling me I’m not rational?”
“Just tonight. We’re both behaving…not rationally.”
“Thank you for explaining that further. You might want to check on you
r daughter,” I added, lifting my voice over her renewed cries.
“We’ll be home soon.” He spared me a brief look. “Her and I.”
Right. As if I hadn’t gotten that message clearly before.
