"He didn't make it far."
"Did you kill him?"
I leveled my gaze on her. "And then the bird makes more commotion and another combatant starts walking up the hill looking for the first guy, and Vander repeats thecommand to hold. In other words, you may not shoot the fucking bird or the guy."
She giggled a soft rippling sound.
"So I didn't, but I wanted to. By the time our position was revealed and everyone was free to shoot whoever, the fucking bird was gone, and I never got my revenge. Shit like that happens all the time with birds. Birds got no chill when you're hiding in their territory."
Her giggles erupted into full-on laughter, and the bed jiggled. "None of that is true."
"It's all true. I don't lie." I crossed my arms and peered down at her with one eyebrow up.
"You lie. You lied so easily saying you were Gavin."
"I can lie when I need to, but I generally don't lie." I winked at her.
She blushed and looked away. "Well, that's good to know."
"You feel like you can sleep now?"
"Maybe." Her lips were pressed tight suppressing more laughter.
"Give it a shot." I patted her shoulder but kept our bodies pretty far apart. I closed my eyes and found myself smiling.
I hadn't noticed before, but when we were quiet, I heard the tapping of drops on the roof.
"What's that noise?" she asked.
"It's starting to rain."
"Oh. Sounds nice."
"Yeah."
Chapter 11 Support Arrives
Wren
I woke from a dream where I was lying on my side on the beach, the sun warmed my back, and a big heavy beach towel weighed my hips down.
I slowly opened my eyes and remembered where I was. That's right. The safe house with Magnum who was right there when we went to bed. Where was he now?
Holy crap.
His hand was wrapped around my hip like a beach towel, and his massive body tucked in behind me was hot like the sun.
My breath stuck in my throat as his hand squeezed then roughly dipped into my waist before brushing the side of my breast.
My heart instantly zoomed to one hundred miles an hour, but I didn't dare move.
His hand slid higher, digging into my hair, his fingers clenching and scratching my scalp. "Fuck, baby." The deepest, most gravelly voice I'd ever heard hummed in my ear. Something round and hard pressed gently between my butt cheeks. "You gotta sleep without panties, so I can have my choice between your ass and your pussy."
Oh. My. God.
My stomach plummeted like I was in free fall from a drop tower ride.
He was clearly half asleep because what he said barely made sense. My gosh. Who did he think he was talking to? Did he have a girlfriend he did things like that with?
