Mm… Am I that transparent?
Given my fear of Bram and the sex tape that had arrived the morning of the party, angst must have been written all over me.
I held his gaze, hunting for more detail, but Carson reverted to his man-of-few-words role.
Okay, I could do that. It was morning and maybe a little too soon for dissecting that loaded comment.
I removed myself from his arms and rose.
Parched, I was desperate for water.
After I grabbed a bottle of water from a small fridge in an adjoining chamber, I walked to the bed naked, and his eyes darkened with lust again.
What a sight he made with his legs slightly apart and his cock thickening.
Again?
“Did someone slip you some Viagra?” I asked, pointing at his enormous erection.
“Yeah.” His sexy half-smile grew.
My brow pinched. “Really?”
“You’re pure fucking Viagra, Savanah.”
As I passed him a bottle of water, he took hold of my hand and studied my arm.
“What the hell?” His going from playful to intense jarred.
I’d forgotten about the bruises I’d been so careful to hide. Carson had helped me forget Bram knocking me around. At least he didn’t hit me in the face. Bram wasn’t so silly to give me a black eye.
I pulled my arm away and tucked it behind my back. As if that would change anything. He’d now seen me exposed.
I’d kept his attack to myself. Bram would have come after me, and that sex tape would destroy me.
“Who did that to you?” he asked.
“Umm… I just knocked it.”
“That’s bullshit. Tell me,” he demanded.
“Look, Carson, please. Don’t get involved.”
“Is it that guy who you were hiding from at Cirque?”
I nodded slowly. “He’s promised to stay away.” My voice cracked. The sex, or the lovemaking as Carson called it, had opened me up.
He took me into his arms and rocked me, and then the tears just sprang out of me like a burst faucet.
“You do realise I’m going to have to fix him, don’t you?” he said.
Chapter 10
Carson
Asthedooropened,piano music floated through the air, and I was greeted by a woman I’d never met. “Hi, I’m Carson, here to see Declan. He’s expecting me.”
She directed me inside where Theadora, on seeing me, stopped playing and welcomed me with a smile. “Carson, how are you?”
