She handed it over.She noticed his scowl but didn’t understand what had made him mad.He tossed her bag into the back of the truck.
“If you changed your mind, I’d understand,” she said.
His eyes narrowed.“I’m not going to change my mind.”
She nodded, then turned back to the truck, debating the best way to climb into it, when his hands grasped her waist and lifted her.A scream stuck in her throat at the abrupt movement.
“Move to the middle,” Thomas said.
“Where will Jaxx get to sit?”she asked.
“Beside you.Call him up.”
She smiled.“Come here, Jaxx.”The dog jumped in, and then Thomas closed the door.
She wrapped her arms around her dog’s neck and waved to her boss.She turned her head when Thomas slid in.They stared at each other for a moment.
She sucked in her stomach when he reached over her.
“I’m just going to put on your seat belt,” he told her.
She nodded and then hushed Jaxx’s growl when the man got close.She heard the click of the belt.
His scent filled her senses.It was overpowering sitting next to him, but when he was against her, it made her tummy tickle and her breasts feel weird.
Scrappy took a deep breath when he moved away and started the truck.She looked around at all the activity and was glad to see the last of it.There had been a hundred men around every day, and she saw very few women, so she got much attention, and it was the last thing she wanted.
She knew it was best she stay as invisible as she could, and for more than one reason.
Chapter Three
Thomas sat next tothe woman and had to grit his teeth.The feel of her arm against his and the womanly scent made his cock ache.The drive to his house took about forty minutes, and he knew every minute would be harder than the last.
He watched the dog lie down with its head on the woman’s lap.
“What’s your name?”he asked.
