“I only have eyes—and hands—for you, Caroline.”Stroking at my needy nipple, he pinched the sensitive tissue through the layers of attire I was wearing, and I jerked forward.“Don’t forget that.”
“I won’t.”My pulse pounded faster at the sudden shot of hurt.“I am shocked that Kaspar allowed me to stay here with you, though.She made such a song and dance about how I was still their detainee earlier, yet now, she permits this...”
“Not complaining, are you?”His tone was wry as his fingers trailed a line across my chest in search of my other nipple.
“Of course not,” I panted.“Just confused.”
“I suspect Elsa has spoken to Kaspar.And I know that the police will still have an officer outside that door.”He motioned to the exit with his head.“Kaspar knows neither of us is going anywhere.”
“But...”I sucked my lower lip as the delicate pressure his digits were building tightened.“Is she really okay about me staying here?”
His face was little more than an inch from mine.“It turns out, I don’t care.Kaspar has power over us, but I won’t let her suck all the joy from our lives.I don’t know what tomorrow will bring, but tonight, you’re staying with me.”
“And there you are.”I smiled at how easy he made the whole thing sound.
“Here I am?”In the half-light, he offered me the one delicious gesture that I adored the most, cocking an eyebrow as a silent demand that I explain.
“There you are.”I motioned toward him.“Commander General Adam Harper, the man who takes control of every situation.”
“The man who loves you,” he corrected.“The man who’ll—"
Inching closer, I halted his explanation by stealing a kiss of my own, nipping at his lower lip before I pounced.He responded immediately, his arm snaking around me and holding me in place as his tongue slowly moved to fuck my mouth.
Groaning at the heady sensation of possession, I was vaguely aware of the beeps of the machines attached to him growing speedier as I ceded.After moments of protracted and heated passion, I allowed him to roll me onto my back, a tangle of wires stretching between us as Harper settled over me in the hospital bed.
“Jesus.”I panted as his legs nudged my knees wider, and there, pushing at my inner thigh, was his huge, needy erection.“You can’t kiss me like that in a hospital, Sir!”
“You’re mine, little girl.”He lowered to kiss the side of my neck, his caresses urgent.“I’ll kiss you however and wherever I choose.”
