He couldn’t help but grin.
“Nice shirt,” he said. “It looks better on you than me,” he admitted.
Granted, she looked better out of it…
Calyx put her hand on his thigh, and much to her delight, he put his hand over hers, and didn’t push it away.
My, the tides might finally be changing in her favor.
“Miss me?” she asked, grinning at him.
God.
He was old.
He was almost fifty, and she…wasn’t, so this was going to either go over well, or like a lead balloon.
“You know I missed you. I came to make sure you were safe. I came to watch you.”
She grinned.
“Now, that seems to be my kink, Mr. Bowman. Watch away,” she said.
When she let her fingers brush his erection, his body reacted.
Calyx was half his age, and that seemed to bewilder him on all kinds of levels, but she brought him alive.
When he dropped his arm over her shoulder, enjoying that moment, he didn’t see that one of the guys that had just come in was watching them.
Calyx moved closer, tucked against his body.
“I wasn’t sure I’d see you until much later. Is everything okay?” she asked.
“The Hunters are moving on the men Artemis hired. Think of me as your bodyguard.”
“Oh, Remington, do you want to guard my body?” she asked, enjoying the moment.
“Yes,” he said. “It’s mine to guard.”
She ran her hand up his leg to his dick, and he went harder at her touch.
“That sounds…permanent.”
He shifted his head, and she was able to see his eyes in the confines of that booth. In them, she saw the truth.
He wasn’t playing.
“I don’t plan on sleeping around, Calyx. That I broke my celibacy for you should tell you everything you need to know. You’re mine now. That’s the end of the discussion.”
Her eyes went huge.
“For weeks, you’ve been teasing me, and I warned you, didn’t I?” he asked, his breath tickling her cheek. “I warned you that tempting the monster would eventually bring him out.”
She swallowed.
Oh, and she knew why.
He’d not protected his wife, and now, he was going to be even more protective of her.
