“You did?”
“Beck has told me plenty about you.”
Worth rolled his eyes. “I’m sure he has. I doubt much of it was complimentary.”
“More than you’re thinking I’m sure, and just because you’re quite the playboy doesn’t mean you’re dangerous.”
“I’m so sorry about what you’ve been through. You came here to get away, then I come in and make crazy assumptions.”
“I wasn’t offended. It was actually quite a compliment. I haven’t had many of those in a while.”
“Tell me where the son of a bitch who hurt you is, and I’ll have him eliminated, after he’s suffered for a long time.”
“Jesus, do you have a hitman on call or something?”
“I have connections. He deserves to be punished for what he’s done to you.”
“He does, but I know what it’s like trying to press charges.”
Worth huffed. “The justice system is shit when it comes to men like him. I can take care of him though.”
“No, I would never put you at risk like that.”
“There’s probably a lot less risk than you think.”
“Why would you do something like that for me?” I asked.
“Because no one deserves to be hurt like he’s hurt you.”
Why did Worth care so much about me? I was sure he didn’t just offer to kill every man who’d hurt someone he knew. Was there something more? Probably not. I was Beck’s friend. That was reason enough. There couldn’t be more to it, no matter how much I’d convinced myself of it earlier when he was inside me, looking down at me like I was a treasure.
I reached for the door handle again. “I should go.”
“No. Absolutely not. You think Beck is mad now. If I let you run off, he’ll kill me.”
“I’m not a child.”
He smiled. “No, you’re certainly not.”
Heat rose in my face again.
“Fuck.” Worth shook his head.
“What?”
“Seeing you blush like that makes me crazy, but I promised Beck I would stay away from you.”
The only thing that made me want to stay in Aruba was the thought of Worth fucking me again like he had earlier. “So we’re just going to share this villa and ignore each other?”
“No, I’m going to show you around Aruba and give you the best vacation you’ve ever had.”
“Trust me, I’ve never had a vacation at all like this, so there’s not a lot of competition.”
He huffed, “Are you saying I can’t make it better?”
“No, I’m not saying that, but you don’t think we should fuck again, so….”
“Jesus, do you know what you’re doing to me?”
