She walked back into the room with a damp cloth, and I expected her to hand it to me, but she began to wipe me clean herself. Didn’t help my current state of arousal. A low groan came from my throat when she wrapped her cloth-covered hand around my dick and moved it up and down. Her eyes darted to mine when she finished and pulled my sweats back up.

“What can I get you from the kitchen?” she asked.

I could get down to the kitchen, but I wasn’t sure telling her that was the best idea. The more she realized I no longer needed a nurse, the more I risked the chance of her leaving. She was mine for two days to hopefully fuck out of my system. Get her out of my head and manage to function without violent urges when I thought about another man touching her.

“With your help, I can get down to the kitchen,” I told her. “Why don’t we order something and find a movie to watch downstairs?”

She held her hand out to me. “Okay.”

Apparently, she was going to help me sit up. I gave her my hand and let her think she was pulling me into a sitting position. It took longer with her help to stand, and not smiling at how fucking cute she was while concentrating was hard.

I was playing a dangerous game.

In the back of my mind, there was,What if you can’t fuck her out of your system? What then?

I didn’t have the answer to that.

Twenty-Three

“I want the cheeseburger, medium well, with provolone cheese and mushrooms,” I told Gage after looking at the menu he’d pulled up on his phone.

“That’s not how you like your cheeseburgers,” he said.

Frowning, I nodded my head. “Yes, it is.”

“No, baby, it isn’t. I’ve ordered you a cheeseburger more times than I can count. You were very specific about how you wanted them.”

This was about before me. So far, I had liked all the food he’d suggested. Perhaps I would like this too. “Fine. Order it the way I used to eat it, but I doubt I’ll like it as good.”

He smirked as he dialed the number. I listened to him order his food, waiting to hear how I used to like my cheeseburgers. “Cheeseburger, medium, siracha mayo, cheddar cheese, and skinny fries on the burger, not beside it.”

My jaw dropped. Was he serious?

He cut his eyes at me and winked. How was it that when this man winked, it made anything he said okay? My insides felt all gooey and soft.

When he was done, he dropped his phone beside him, then reached over and pulled me closer to him. I wanted to curl up in his lap and purr like a freaking kitten. This Gage was addictive. I wasn’t clingy or needy, but I could easily become that with him. Not a pleasant thought. That was not something I wanted to turn into.

Gage put an arm around me so that I could lean in against him.

“I don’t want to hurt you,” I said, thinking of his ribs.

“You won’t,” he replied, taking his other hand and dragging me against him.

Fine. I would just be careful. His bare chest and raised scar from the knife, which was still angry-looking but closed up now, held my attention. I’d touched his semen earlier because I really wanted a reason to feel his stomach. Now, I wanted to run my hands over his pecs and see how his hard chest felt under my fingertips.

“In the mood for a horror film tonight?” he asked me as he flipped through the movie options on the television.

Sitting downstairs in the living room was new for me. I’d barely even been in this room when I was here before. Gage had his cast on a large ottoman in front of him with his other foot on the floor. The cutoff sweatpants he wore hung low on his waist, giving me a view of the cut, defined V below his stomach.

“Shiloh?”

“Yeah?” I asked, tearing my eyes off his bare chest and stomach to meet his gaze.

“Horror movie?” he asked, a smile teasing his lips. He’d caught me.

I nodded my head.
