I made sure of that.
“That's fine,” I assured her as I passed her my credit card.
Lorelei’s brow furrowed, but she didn’t say anything else while I completed the transaction. When I had our keys in hand, I took her back out to the car to grab my bag, then we stopped at the little sundries and snacks alcove next to registration to buy a toothbrush and deodorant for Lorelei.
Our room was tucked into a corner, next to the stairwell, so we had an easy exit. I opened the door and ushered my girl in before shutting it and locking the deadbolt as well as the chain.
Lorelei stood in the middle of the room, wearing an awkward expression as she glanced around.
I set my bag on the dresser and unzipped it, grabbing the first shirt I found and tossing it to her. “Here, baby. You can sleep in this.”
She frowned down at the piece of clothing, then shrugged with a long sigh before disappearing into the bathroom.
Quickly, I stripped down to my boxers, then checked the window before placing my loaded gun in the nightstand drawer beside the bed. Normally, I would put it on top or under my pillow because opening a drawer could lose precious seconds. However, I didn’t want to overwhelm Lorelei with my world this soon. Easing her into what to expect as the old lady of a Silver Saint seemed like the best course of action.
I waited in bed, with my hands behind my head, staring at the ceiling, when the bathroom door opened and the light shut off.
Hesitantly, Lorelei practically tiptoed around the corner and stopped beside the bed. She tugged on the hem of the T-shirt, and I almost laughed because it already fell just past her knees.
“Come to bed, firecracker,” I instructed with a wink. “I don’t bite.” Much.
She swallowed hard, then her cheeks flamed as she lifted the covers and crawled underneath them. Laughter rumbled in my chest when she settled at the very edge of the mattress, lying there stiff as a board.
When she shot a tiny glare at me, I figured she’d heard the sound of amusement, and it made me laugh out loud. “Adorable,” I murmured as I reached out and curled an arm around her. I ignored her little squeak of surprise when I hauled her over until her back was plastered to my front.
It only took a minute for her to relax and snuggle back into me. Her sexy ass wiggled against my cock, and I clamped a hand on her hips to keep her from moving again.
“You keep squirming like that, and I won’t be able to control myself much longer,” I rasped in her ear, groaning when she shivered. “We both know you aren't ready for all the dirty shit rolling around in my head, baby. Go to sleep.”
I relaxed my grip when she didn’t try to move again, but then she turned over to face me. “Um, what kind of dirty stuff?” she whispered shyly.
Grinning, I shook my head. “Go to sleep, firecracker.”
“But I—”
I sighed, cutting her off before I kept her silent by sealing my mouth over hers. If she wanted a demonstration, I would give her one because then I’d finally get to know what she tasted like.
Fuck. She was as sweet as she smelled. When I ran the tip of my tongue along the seam of her lips, she gasped, and I dove in, deepening the kiss. I urged her to roll onto her back, and she clutched my biceps as I shifted so my body covered hers. My fingers delved into her soft, golden-brown hair, and I clenched the strands to hold her exactly where I wanted her.
After a few more minutes of ravaging her mouth, I knew I was seconds away from saying to hell with it and fucking her. But I wasn’t gonna risk scaring her off by going any faster than I already was.
Lorelei whimpered as her hips moved restlessly, and I knew it was time to stop. With a herculean effort, I ripped my mouth from hers and pressed our foreheads together. We were panting hard, trying to catch our breath so our heartbeats would slow.
“I knew you’d taste like heaven,” I grunted before pulling back to look down at her face. Satisfaction rolled through me when I saw her glassy green eyes, flushed skin, and kiss-swollen lips.
Before I gave in to temptation, I rolled to my side and curled myself around her again. “Go to sleep, baby.” I kissed her temple, then relaxed and tried to rest. It wasn’t until long after her breathing evened out that I finally fell asleep.

LORELEI
Waking up in Grey’s arms felt surreal. It was difficult to believe everything that had happened in the past twenty-four hours. My holiday vacation with my best friend had turned into a quasi-kidnapping by a sexy biker. One who I made out with last night—talk about getting a Christmas present I never would’ve thought to wish for.
