I answered her by bending over to press my lips to hers. “I’ll take you home, baby,” I murmured before running my tongue along the seam of her lips, requesting entry. She shuffled closer, and her lips parted in invitation. The first sweep of my tongue pulled a tortured groan from my chest as I savored her taste. I was instantly on the edge, my cock dangerously hard and my self-control hanging by a thread. It didn’t help that there was a bed only inches away from us.
My hands fisted at her sides, pulling on the thin material of her top. The fear that I’d accidentally rip it, causing even the remotest possibility of someone seeing what was mine, broke through the lustful fog swallowing me.
Jaelyn mewled in objection when I forced myself to release her lips. It almost did me in, but I swallowed hard and told myself that I’d soon have her all to myself. I touched our foreheads together and attempted to regulate my ragged breathing. My body was overheating from need, but it reminded me about my layers. It was in the high sixties outside, making my sweater unnecessary, but I hadn’t donned it for warmth.
Reluctantly, I let Jaelyn go and grabbed the back of my sweater, pulling it off in one swift move. Then I lowered it over her head and helped her put her arms through the sleeves. It was so big that it almost swallowed her whole. But fuck, I was burning with desire at seeing her wrapped in my clothes.
She held up her arms and laughed at the sight of the sleeves hanging over her hands. “I don’t think this is really my size, Rand.” I chuckled and suppressed the shiver that tried to race through my body at the sound of my name in her husky voice. I rolled up the sleeves and then stepped back to survey my handiwork. A frown creeped onto my face when I saw her bare legs. The shirt hung down to her knees, but it was the way it made her appear as though she didn’t have on pants that bothered me.
I glanced around and that’s when I spied the folded clothing on the end of the bed. Lifting the fabric, I was glad to see that someone had thought to leave Jaelyn a pair of clean scrubs. I left the top, preferring to have her in my clothes, wearing my scent, and bent to help her step into the pants.
Fucking hell. She had the most gorgeous legs. By the time I stood, the image of those stems wrapped around my waist had my dick leaking precome. And the thought of them wrapped around my head had my mouth watering.
“Let’s go, baby,” I urged as I slipped an arm around her waist and led her toward the exit. It was time to take her home.

Jaelyn
When we passed through the emergency room doors, I took a deep breath and let it out slowly. I’d only been inside the hospital for a little more than two hours, but it’d felt a lot longer. On the plus side, enough time had gone by for the shakiness I’d felt after the fire to have passed. I didn’t need help, but I liked the feel of Rand’s arm over my shoulders too much to let him know. Especially not the short distance we walked to get to the huge silver truck parked near the entrance.
Glancing at the reserved sign, I grinned up at Rand as he opened the passenger door for me. “I’m pretty sure this spot is supposed to be used for official business only.”
“True,” he conceded with a sexy smirk, humor gleaming in his green eyes. “But it’s not like any of my guys were going to rat their captain out for snagging a primo spot in the ten minutes it took me to get you.”
Everything had been so hectic after he’d carried me out of my building that I’d forgotten someone had referred to him as Captain until he reminded me just now. “Do you take advantage of the perks of being the boss often?”
“Nah, I’m usually a stickler for the rules. It’s part of why they promoted me to captain in the first place.” I let out a surprised squeak when he wrapped his large hands around my waist and lifted me onto the passenger seat. “But I had a damn good reason for breaking the rules this time.”
My brow wrinkled in confusion since it seemed he’d only come to the hospital to pick me up. “You did?”
“Of course, I did, baby. You were waiting for me.” He brushed his thumb across my cheekbone, and I would’ve sworn he was about to kiss me before he pulled away and slammed the truck door shut.
“Whoa,” I breathed, slumping against my seat. If they hadn’t checked my temperature while I was being examined, I would’ve thought I had a fever—that’s how hot and bothered Rand was able to get me with just a look and light touch of his hand on my face. The man should come with a warning label.
