“It’s okay,” I tried to say when his eyes turned murderous.
“It’s not fucking okay!” he snapped before looking up and finding Faron close enough to bark an order at.
“Faron, I want you to call in a doctor, have them waiting for us.”
“Ryker, I am…”
Ryker narrowed his eyes at me, stopping me in my tracks.
“I warn you, Little Bird, do not finish that sentence with the words fine or okay, or it will piss me off.” I released a deep sigh before commenting wryly,
“I would say you’re there already.”
“Too fucking right, I am, they stole my woman, drugged her, hurt her, and tried to fucking drown her… now tell me, Evie, should I be anything but pissed off?” At this I sighed again and agreed,
“Okay, well, when you put it like that.”
“Where do I send them to, boss?” Faron asked, already on the phone and clearly working fast.
“Send them to the estate, and get the chopper to land here…” He paused long enough to look down at me, running the backs of his fingers down my cheek when continuing.
“I want to get my girl back home.”
The next few days that passed were admittedly a lot to take in. Of course, this wasn’t just down to how my life had completely changed but more like my entire world. This was thanks to what Ryker started to share with me, something I had asked him to do the following day. But even then, he feared that I hadn’t been up to it, quickly quoting the doctor who had examined my head and told Ryker to watch out for signs of concussion.
Meaning that Ryker took this as a very literal thing, not taking his eyes off me for even a second. Of course, I hit my limit when wanting to use the bathroom, snapping at him that I would rather sing on the toilet than let him watch me pee. He naturally asked how that would help, and I told him if Elton John started to get slurry, then he should come a-running. He laughed at this, but not as hard as he was laughing when he heard me sing Rocket Man.
“It wasn’t that bad,” I complained, making him smirk from where he was leaning against the wall just outside of the bathroom.
“No, but I wouldn’t give up on being an artist anytime soon, as clearly, that’s where your talents are.” At this I grinned and told him,
“Oh, but I’m sure that’s not where all my talents lie.” Then I winked at him before wagging my eyebrows in a comical way, making him roar with laughter.
“And I look forward to discovering all of them but as for right now, back to bed with you.” I giggled and told him,
“Funny, because I’m sure that’s where to practice most of them.”
“Yes, well as tempting as that is, such will have to wait.”
I then gave him my best pouty face, making him chuckle.
“And as cute and adorable as that face is, you are bruised to hell and need your rest.” At this I decided to try a different tactic, telling him,
“You know by denying me your body and my new found love of sex with it, you are letting the bad guys win.” At this his lips twitched like he was fighting another grin.
“I am the bad guy, remember?” he teased.
“No, you’re not, you rescued me, remember…? Which, in my book, makes you the hero,” I told him as I walked back over to his huge bed, that I had to admit, was going to make it difficult to get out of in the mornings because it was seriously the stuff of sweet dreams… just like Ryker was.
“I also was the one to kidnap you… twice, remember?” he said, repeating the theme of the word ‘remember’ and making me grin.
“Yeah, but I secretly liked it and besides, it worked out well for the both of us, and my newly lost V card certainly thanks you for it.” He laughed again and told me,
“Quit being cute, Little Dove, and get in the bed.”
“Now there’s an offer I can’t refuse,” I teased, making him sigh with a grin, shaking his head as if he didn’t know what to do with my horny little self. Well, I knew exactly what he could do, he was just refusing to.
“Since when did you get so sassy, eh?” he asked, gathering me in his arms from behind and nestling me in between his legs, playing with my hands in front of me. But then I pulled away so I could turn in his arms and look back at him.
