“No buts. No what-ifs. If we have to call a date off, change plans, or just take a short break in the day then that is what we’ll do. You are very quickly becoming the most important person in my world, and I will look after you and give you all that you need. So just tell me and I’ll help you as much as I can. But you need to start talking to me and stop worrying about how I will react. Is that understood?”

I nod as I try desperately not to cry. No one has ever made me feel as important as Jay is right now. He leans in and presses a kiss on my forehead.

“Good girl. Now go and have a cuddle with Binx whilst I tidy up, and then if you want, I can leave so you can get some rest.”

“Will you stay a little while?” I ask not wanting him to leave yet. Jayden smiles and nods before standing and pulling me onto my feet.

“If you want me here then I will happily stay.”

I smile as I head into the lounge to find Binx in his usual spot. I pick him up and place him on my knee as we wait for Jay. “I could get used to being looked after for a change Binx,” I whisper as he cuddles up to me. I look back to the kitchen where I see Jay clearing the table and realise, I could very quickly fall completely in love with this man.

Chapter Nine

Sadie

I try to stay calm as I walk into the bathroom with my night clothes in my arms to get ready for bed. I can’t believe I asked him to stay. It hadn’t been my intention, I just hated the idea of him leaving. The words were out of my mouth before I had time to process them and now my heart races with nerves.

I pull on an old T-shirt I like to sleep in and brush my teeth before heading to the bedroom.

“I don’t have anything with me so I’ll have to just wear my boxers sorry,” Jayden calls with his back to me.

“That’s fine, I’m not complaining,” I tease as he turns around smirking. The smile quickly falls as he looks at me still fully dressed.

“Oh fuck no!”

“What?” I demand nervously looking down at myself.

“Is that an ex’s T-shirt!”

I frown, before remembering where the top came from.

“Oh!”

Jayden walks up to me, grabs the bottom of the material, and pulls it off swiftly.

“Jay!” I yell trying to cover myself as he untucks his shirt and pulls it off still buttoned up revealing his well-built tattooed body. He slides the fabric over me to wear.

“Push your arms through,” he demands, and I quickly do as I’m told. “If you have any other shirts from exes I suggest throwing them out tomorrow. I don’t want to see you in another man’s clothes again. If you like to sleep in t-shirts you can come to mine and pick out as many as you want.” He finishes rolling up the sleeves and takes a step back. I look down at my body, with Jay being so much taller than me the shirt stops mid-thigh. It smells amazing, just like him.

“Sorry, I’ve had it that long I forgot where it came from,” I admit.

“You look fucking gorgeous in my shirt.” Jay steps forward, threads his fingers into my hair and the back of my head, and looks deep into my eyes. I watch as the muscles in his jaw tighten. “I’m going to kiss you. You have ten seconds to tell me no.”

I stare into his eyes for a brief moment, before a feral growl escapes his lips.

“Fuck it.”

His lips crash into mine as his fingers tighten on my hair. I wrap my arms around his neck as his tongue forces its way into my mouth. I pull him closer. Jay lets go of my hair and places his hands on my ass before lifting me so I can wrap my legs around his waist. I’ve never felt passion like it, my whole body is hot and coming alive just from his kiss. He carries me to the bed and lays me on it before pulling his lips from mine as we both gasp for breath.

“You are making it very hard for me to do the right thing here,” Jayden says in a deep throaty voice.

“What’s the right thing?” I ask as his lips find my neck and I push my head back into the mattress.

“To take you to bed, but let you sleep.”

“But I’ve already slept enough,” I point out grinning.

“Sweetheart, what am I going to do with you?” he growls into my neck. “You make it very difficult for me to take care of you.” Jay pushes himself away from me, leaving me lying on the bed in nothing but some underwear and his shirt. His arousal is obvious in his tight suit trousers. I look at the large bulge and moan involuntarily.
