“Yes, what about Erin? I haven’t decided yet. I will wait and see how my meeting with the delegation goes. If everything can be settled peacefully, I will go to America and bring her back myself. For now, Talib has been made aware of the circumstances and has been instructed to make the appropriate calls to secure adequate security.”
“Slade’s group?” Kale asked, speaking of his college roommate who had become an FBI agent and now owned a freelance security company. His employees were mostly ex-special forces, and they excelled in personal security details and search and rescue operations. Being a private company, they were able to enter countries the US Military could not, and were not held to the same rules as the government groups. It worked well for everyone involved.
“Yes. I understand that Slade is putting several of his best men on this case. He also has a new woman working for him and she has been assigned to the case to offer protection for Shira and Erin in places the men cannot go.”
“Like public restrooms.” Kale spoke what they were both thinking. Many abductions of world leaders occurred in public bathrooms. It was the one place where security guards of the opposite sex could not follow their clients. It made them very vulnerable and was a point that well-trained kidnappers didn’t often pass up.
Kale thought about his former roommate and couldn’t help asking, “Any idea why he hired a woman? That’s not actually his style. He was completely against women in the military when we were in college.”
“I asked Talib the same question. It seems that PJ, the woman in question, is the sister of a man that Slade was unable to save during his last operation for the FBI. She joined the military after her brother’s death and when she got out, demanded a job from Slade. He gave it to her.”
“Wow! That is not like him. Anyway, I look forward to meeting some of his men. He only hires the best.”
“That is why he has been contacted. I will let you know if the threat is still active. If so, I will want a small detail to accompany you back to Jawhara. Our palace bodyguards are good at their jobs, but a fresh look at our security measures would not be amiss.”
“I agree.” Glancing at the time, he shook Kamal’s hand, “I’ll check in on your woman when we arrive.”
Kamal nodded his head, saying nothing. Kale gave his brother one last look and then headed off to finish his own packing.
Chapter 14
The flight home was much the same as the flight to Jawhara had been three weeks ago. The only difference – this time when Kale suggested she make use of the luxurious bedroom, he joined her.
There was something completely naughty about making love at thirty thousand feet in the air. When Kale had first suggested a nap, Shira had started to object, as she wasn’t at all tired. Then she had taken one look at his eyes and readily agreed. The banked hunger in them was too much to resist.
Kale escorted her to the back of the plane and Shira was astounded at the luxury once again. When he wrapped his arms around her from behind, she let her head fall back against his shoulder, turning her head when his lips skimmed below her ear to give him unfettered access.
She wrapped her arms around his, letting her fingertips skim the muscles in his forearms and down to where his fingers were quickly undoing the buttons on her shirt. When they parted the material and skimmed back up her stomach, she guided his hands to her breasts, moaning when they reached their goal.
“You like that, don’t you?” Kale asked, molding her breasts and squeezing gently.
“Yes.” Shira felt Kale turn them around, but she didn’t pay much attention as her eyes were closed. Even after spending every night, and sometimes several times throughout the day, wrapped in the sensual spell Kale wove each time he touched her, she was amazed at her response. She had always been a very sexual person, but all Kale had to do was walk into the room and she was ready to go.
“Open your eyes,” Kale commanded softly.
Shira moaned and rolled her head against his chest, not willing to let the spell be broken by anything her eyes might see. Instead, she was content to let her senses roam free, basking in the path they led her down.
“Habibiti, open your eyes and watch.”
Watch? That got her attention and she slowly lifted her eyes, gasping at the raw carnality of the image before her. Kale had turned them so they were directly across from the mirror atop the dresser. She watched as Kale touched her body, seeing her breathing increase in tempo with the desire his hands were carefully orchestrating.
When one hand abandoned her breasts to begin a slow descent down, she watched in delight as he slipped his hand beneath her waistband. When her eyes started to drift shut, he nudged her with his chin, “Open.”
Shira raised her eyelids and met his stare in the mirror, holding his gaze as he did things to her body, causing her to writhe back against him demanding more of the same.
Kale watched her watching herself, and was pleased to see that the eroticism of the moment was not lost on her. When his control was on its last thread, he quickly turned her around, devouring her mouth as he walked her backwards and pushed her down on the bed.
Joining his body to hers quickly, he pushed them up the peak, for once not worrying about whether she was with him or not. Her moans, pleas for him to “Hurry!” and the raking of her nails upon his back told him she was right there with him.
They flew into space together, their breaths mingling as he fused their lips together. Each time was better than the last. Rolling to his side, he brought her up against him, closing his eyes and feeling her relax and place her head upon his chest.
They drifted in and out of sleep, waking once more during the long flight to make each other soar to the pinnacle of ecstasy. The shower was only big enough for one person, so they took turns.
After a light meal of broiled salmon, and a vegetable medley, Kale excused himself to get some work done and left Shira to her own devices. The jet had a large selection of movies and she chose one of her favorites and settled back to watch.
As the movie played on, her thoughts began to go through the items that she needed to take care of before she returned to Jawhara in six weeks. The first order of business was to check in on Erin and make sure that she would be able to handle the rent payments by herself for a while. Kale seemed certain that Kamal would be bringing Erin to Jawhara soon, but her cousin was stubborn and not likely to give up her independence so easily.
She would have to arrange for her belongings to be shipped, stored, or sold. Her Uncle and Aunt would be returning from their world cruise about the time she was due to fly back to Jawhara and she hoped that they would be supportive of her decision to return with Kale.
