“Sophie, don’t you walk away from me. It will only make it worse for you.”
“Oh, you want to play games, Cahill? Fine, do whatever the heck ya want. I’m going to bed. See you tomorrow.”
She walks off in front of me! She goes to her room and slams the door in my face. Oh! I think that counts for at least twenty strips on her cute little ass. I take a few deep breaths to settle myself before I do or say something stupid, something I might regret. I open the door quietly to find her crying into her pillow and mumbling, “I’m so stupid. I believed him when he said he wanted to marry me. I’m so stupid to fall for my captor and the first man to show me attention. I can’t believe he said he was falling for me. It’s all a game to him. Lauren, what am I meant to do?” She is crying to Lauren. Awk shite, how am I meant to fix this? See this crap here is why I don’t do relationships. Women are too emotional; men, we’re just a simple breed.
I walk into the room. She lifts her head to wipe her eyes. “Have to go. Someone is here.” And hangs up.
“How much did you hear?”
“Not very much. Sophie. I am not lying. I am just trying to keep you safe. I don’t know what is going on. Ruairi and I think someone’s after you, but we don’t know who, and I don’t know how to stop him or her, yet. We were in a car accident. It was on purpose, but I don’t know who did it. I’m sorry if you think I lied. I am new to this relationship stuff, and women in my world don’t usually know much of our work life. I thought you would have read more about it in your books?” I smirk. Sophie just smiles back at me.
“Mm, okay. We are both new to this, but we can work on it. Let's try to communicate more.” She smiles at me.
“I spoke to Ruairi about the casino and what you had come up with. He loves them. I think he would like to work with you. How would you feel about giving up your dental job and working for me? I can pay more.”
“I will think about it. I have two more weeks before I am meant to go back to work, so I will decide in the next few days. If I take up your offer, I will need to give my work notice, so I will decide in the next few days. Okay? Can you give me that?”
“Yep, now let’s go to our room and snuggle down. Wanna watch something on Netflix?”
I will do whatever she wants but I will keep asking her everyday about the job. We walk into our room. She takes off her clothes and grabs my t-shirt then climbs into bed, I strip off and snuggle in beside her. Sophie’s little hand keeps tracing my wolf tattoo on my leg. I know I shouldn’t, but I want to fuck her again, but I know it’s not the right time.
Sophie is nearly asleep on my chest when I hear Ruairi screaming and shouting with Jones shouting behind him. Sophie jumps and clings to me.
“Now I like this, you on top of me.”
I wink at her. She climbs off me and hits my chest. “You need to check on the boys. I will grab my clothes.” Jumping right into action, I grab my gyms shorts and walk out.
“Ruairi, Jones, what the fuck is going on?”
“Down in the kitchen,” Jones replies.
Sophie comes out of the room. “I heard the kitchen is where we are heading. Let’s go.”
“You don’t have to come, Soph. I don’t want you to hear something you might not be able to un-hear, or make you see us in a different light.”
Sophie storms on past me. I guess she is going, what a tough little cupcake. She walks into the kitchen before me and screams. What has Ruairi brought home? Then I see Ruairi on the kitchen unit laying down. Blood pissing out from his arm and leg. I am still staring at him. Jones is on the phone to the doctor. Sophie is scrubbing up, grabbing the first aid kit.
“What are you doing, doll?”
“I’m going to help. Wash up, Cahill. Grab me some towels and vodka now.”
Wow! She is hot when she is bossy. I do as I’m told though. I can spank her later to remind her who is in control. I walk back into the kitchen with Sophie resting cool towels over Ruairi’s head. Grabbing the vodka out of my hands she starts to clean the wounds. The leg is a clean shot and Sophie begins to stitch it up. I think her dental background is paying off.
Sophie is stitching away, talking to Ruairi to keep him awake when the doctor walks in. He sets a drip up after we move Ruairi to a bed downstairs. When the doc takes over, he thanks Sophie. Ruairi promises to take her to the moon, I think it’s safe to say the drugs are working and the half bottle of vodka he drank too. Soon he will be asleep and feel better in a few hours.
I take Sophie back to bed to let her get some sleep. I will get the low down tomorrow from Ruairi. But the main thing going around my head is that Sophie is falling for me. Even though I’m the bad guy, she is falling for me. She sees something in me, and I am on cloud nine. She is also handy with a needle and thread, and not put off by bullet wounds or blood. I can’t believe how lucky I am. I fall asleep smiling.
