“Yeah, I noticed how they look at one another, and I’m very happy for her. She hasn’t let herself be happy since the day of my accident.” Luke sighs sadly. “I’m hoping Ace is just what Daisy needs to let go of the past and reach for a future.” I smile at him, loving how much he loves his sister. He looks up at me. “You’re sure you’re okay? You were so distant on the drive home. I’ll give you whatever you need. Even if that means you need time away from me.” I can see the worry on his face.

“I promise you. I’m fine,” I whisper as I lean closer to him, pressing a kiss to his lips. “And I never want to be away from you.” Relief washes over his face before he kisses me tenderly once more. The sound of vehicles behind us in the driveway and the slamming of doors pulls us apart. “We better get inside before the final member of your family that hasn’t caught us in a compromising position does just that,” I tease.

“You haven’t met my mother yet,” Luke asserts. “So we still havetwomembers of my family who haven’t caught us having sex.” He grins at the look of mortification on my face.

“Luke Robertson!” I cry. “I just can’t with you.” I can’t keep from giggling despite myself.

“Oh but you have, many times as I recall.” Luke smirks at me. I swat his arm playfully. “Come on baby, let’s get you inside.” He moves to exit his side of the vehicle just as my door is opened by one of the men on Daisy’s boyfriend’s team.

“Let me help you down,” the man says, holding out his hand to me. I accept his help. I see Daisy being held by Ace behind us as my feet hit the concrete floor of the garage. She gives me a tentative smile that I return. Up until we were held hostage together, I had the feeling Daisy didn’t really care for me, but the fact she came to my rescue says it all. The men herd us into the house, which is overflowing with testosterone. I remember thinking I was outnumbered before with Luke, his brothers, and friends,but this is over the top. So many large, muscled men. I’d be frightened under other circumstances, but I know they are here to help us.

Luke settles me into one of the large recliners in his living room while everyone else takes up seats around the room. An older man, Luke referred to as Hawk, takes charge of the room.

“The FBI wanted to interview Daisy and Marley tonight, but I persuaded them to wait until the morning,” Hawk informs us. “They were a little pissed there wasn’t anyone to interrogate.” His eyes land on Daisy “Can one of you tell us what happened?” I glance at Daisy, but I suppose I should be the one to fill in what happened as I was the one taken hostage, at least initially.

“I was leaving work when a man grabbed me from behind and held a gun to my side.” I can’t keep from shuddering, still feeling the barrel of the gun pressing into my side. Luke places his hand on the back of my neck and squeezes gently. I look into his eyes, getting the courage I need to continue. I keep my eyes on his as I relate my story. “He told me that if I didn’t cooperate his friend would kill Luke. He then took me to the cabin. He kept saying that I was working for the FBI or CIA. He wanted to know how much of their plans I had told the authorities. I tried to convince him I had no idea what he was talking about. He was certain that I had overheard their conversation when I had waited on them at The Bistro. He kept talking about the feds catching some of his friends and taking their bomb making materials.” Daisy picks up the story from there and relates what happened up until the team burst in on us taking out the kidnappers. It’s an emotional roller coaster for me as I hear her recount the events. I added in what details I could. Luke holds my hand the whole time, keeping me grounded as I recall the fear I’d felt, seeing Daisy hit in the head, thinking she was dead for a time. I try not to be a blubbering mess, but my nerves are so raw, after all of this.

When Hawk calls an end to the meeting so we can all be rested to meet with the FBI in the morning, Luke offers to let asmany of them stay as would like. While some of them decide to stay and keep watch over us, the rest leave for a local hotel. I ride the lift upstairs with Luke. I notice Daisy and Ace are exiting the stairs heading for her room. She looks over Ace’s shoulder as Luke and I reach his room. I expect to see anger or at the very least a disapproving look from her, but she just grins at me. I return her smile before I slip inside and close the door.

As soon as the door is closed, Luke pulls me onto his lap, kissing me breathless. His tongue tangles with mine, drawing a moan from the depths of my soul. I’d been so afraid in that room where we’d been held that I’d never see Luke again. Now I’m here sitting in his lap, kissing him. His hands are roaming over my body. I wince when his hands slide over my ribs. He pulls back, breaking our kiss.

“I’m sorry, baby, did I hurt you?” he asks, but doesn’t give me time to answer before he’s lifting my shirt to reveal some very nasty bruises along my ribs. “Fuck!” he exclaims, his hand gently exploring the area. His eyes find mine. “I’m sorry. I forgot about those bruises. You should have let them take you to the hospital for x-rays.”

“I don’t think they are broken.” I grimace as he hits another very sensitive spot. His scowl tells me he doesn’t really believe me. “I’m just sore, Luke.”

“I wish I could raise those bastards from the dead so I can kill them again!”

“I’m okay, just calm down,” I chide, leaning in to kiss him again. “Please I don’t want to talk about what happened anymore.” I kiss him again. “Make me forget.” I run my hands under his shirt to feel his warm muscular flesh on my palms as I deepen the kiss. “I need to forget.” His hands slide around my back, pulling me closer to him as we kiss. He removes my blouse. Then I feel him unclasp my bra and slide the straps down my arms. I pull back so he can remove it completely.

He cups my breasts, one in each hand. He massages them,kneading and teasing my nipples. I lean into his touch, loving how quickly he turns me on. I can feel myself getting wet and ready for him. He takes my right breast in his mouth, sucking hard. I grip his head holding him to me. My head falls back as I revel in his touch. He moves to the other side giving just as much attention to the left. He pulls back from me. A frown crossing his face.

“We shouldn’t.” He huffs. “You’ve been through a lot, today.”

“Please,” I beg. “I need you, Luke. I need you to make me forget, take it all away, if only for a little while.” I take his lips in a deep sensual kiss, doing my best to convey all my wants and needs.

“Get undressed and in the bed for me,” Luke rasps when he comes up for air. “I need you, too.”

“Yes,” I agree, scrambling off his lap and hurrying to the bed. I lose my shoes, pants, and panties in record time before climbing onto the huge bed. I look back to see Luke has followed and is getting ready to transfer from his chair to the bed. I watch in fascination as he uses his incredible arms to lift his body onto the bed. I move to help him shed his pants and boxers although he doesn’t need my help. He may not have full use of his legs, but he is more than capable to taking care of himself.

Once he is undressed, he pulls me to him for another deep, sensual kiss. “I thought I was going to lose you today,” Luke murmurs as he trails kisses down my neck. “I’m so, so sorry baby. I should never have let this happen to you. Please forgive me.” I’m shocked he’s asking for my forgiveness. I’ve already told him nothing about what happened today is his fault.

“Luke, honey, we’ve already talked about this.” I pull away so he can see my eyes and know I’m being sincere. “You have nothing to be sorry for. Nothing that happened is your fault. I don’t know why those lunatics zeroed in on me as their target, but I know without a doubt you couldn’t have prevented it. I’m just thankful you’re here with me and that they didn’t hurt you.”

He holds me to him for several minutes. I listen to the steady thud of his heartbeat in my ear as it rests on his chest. His hand strokes up and down my arm so gently. I can feel the tension in him as he struggles to work through his emotions.

“I haven’t hated the fact that I’m in a wheelchair for years,” Luke speaks after several long minutes of silence, startling me. “Until today. I wished like everything I could be the one to bring you out of that hell hole. I wanted to be there for you, to comfort you.” I raise up from his chest, leaning on my right elbow as I look at him.

“Luke, you might not have physically been in that room, but you were with me,” I declare. “Knowing you were waiting for me, that I would be here in this bed with you when it was all over, is what helped me survive. You were comforting me the whole time. Now make love to me.” He stares into my eyes as if he’s looking for the truth. His hand cups my cheek before he draws me in for another heated kiss.

“Yes, ma’am,” he says, then he is pulling me up, positioning my pussy directly over his face. He feasts on me until I’m screaming his name not caring who hears me. My orgasm so strong I’m left weak and trembling. I fear I’ll smother him as I’m not sure my legs will hold me up any longer. He helps me to ease back down his body. His cock has begun to harden from what he’s been doing to me. I stroke him a few times before sucking his cock into my mouth. He groans as I take him to the back of my throat. He only lets me suck him down a few times before he positions me over his cock, sliding me down onto his length.

My legs are still weak, but I do my best to ride him. He grips my hips and helps to lift me as I move up and down on his shaft. The friction is building again. I can feel my orgasm growing like a tidal wave. I move faster, swiveling my hips as I come down to tease my clit. I rise and fall. He pulls me down hard each time, filling and stretching me perfectly.

“Touch yourself, baby,” Luke chokes out through gritted teeth. “I need you to get there. I can’t hold out much more.” I’ve always been embarrassed to touch myself in front of a lover before, but as if it has a mind of its own, my hand leaves his chest to rub my clit vigorously at his command. A few more thrusts and I’m coming apart on his cock as he, too, calls out my name, spilling inside me. I melt onto his chest. His harsh breaths fan my hair, both of us struggling to catch our breaths. I don’t think I can move, so I just remain spread over him. I’m asleep in seconds.

The next morning finds me at the police station, once again. Only this time, I’m meeting with the FBI instead of with Luke’s detective friend Officer Atwood. I’m nervous as hell to be here especially when I hear what they’ve uncovered on the men who kidnapped me. It seems these men are or had been members of a terrorist group responsible for bombings around the world. This cell had plans to bomb several locations right here in America. They had met with a man at The Bistro a few months ago, from whom, they were going to buy their explosives. The next day that man was raided and arrested by the FBI. It seems the men became convinced I was the person who tipped off the FBI. They have sent my picture and all my personal information out to other cells across the country, which means I am now a target for God only knows how many crazy psychos. This is really bad news. The tension in Luke is palpable. I don’t know how to help calm him down.

Bo, Rosco, and Enos left a few days ago for a trip to Atlanta on business. I now know their trip is related to my case, but Luke is less than forthcoming on what they found. I know it’s eating him up inside that he didn’t prevent my kidnapping. Somehow I have to get him to let that go. I know there’s no way he could have predicted or prevented it from happening.
