nose.” He pulled the seat belt across her and couldn’t help but cup her breast again.
    They were large and full, firm and soft. He wanted to pull up her blouse and suckle at the hard nipple he could see even through her bra. Shutting her door before he did something stupid…or stupider, he adjusted his cock again for the eightieth time since he’d kissed her and got into his car.
    Now what? He supposed he could take her to his house, but was reasonably sure she really would hurt him. He hadn’t picked up her purse so he didn’t have a clue where she lived. He thought about calling Caroline and asking where she lived, but he wasn’t sure he wanted Heather on her own turf yet. He thought about his sister, but knew she was at a job site and then thought of the one person he knew would understand. Putting the car into gear, he pulled out his cell phone and called his mom.
    “ Hello, dear. I was just thinking about you. There is the loveliest girl that lives next door to us. You really should meet her.”
    He glanced over at the woman next to him. “No thanks. Mom, I have this problem…well, she’s not a problem.” He glanced over at her again. “Not yet at least. She’s going to be really mad when she wakes up, but that could be at least another hour yet. I hope.”
    “ Alexander, what are you talking about? You have a woman you’ve rendered unconscious. I do believe there are laws forbidding that sort of treatment.” He could hear her laughter and smiled. “Please tell me you aren’t so desperate for a date you’ve taken to drugging women.”
    “ No. Well, not really. The doctor is the one who…Mom, do you think I can bring her to your house? I’m pretty sure she won’t kill me with you there and I’ll explain when I get there.” He hoped so anyway.
    “ Of course. But I do expect a full explanation when you arrive. Shall I call someone for her? Or for you?”
    “ No, ma’am. Not yet at any rate. I’ll be there in ten minutes.”
    Alex had plenty of time to think while he drove. This was so out of the ordinary for him that he really couldn’t blame his mother for being suspicious. He’d never had to beg a woman for kisses. Hell, he’d never had to even ask. Women just found him to be irresistible. Until this one. She hated him on the spot. Of course he’d done nothing to make her like him. He’d called her a liar and he’d made her burn her arm. Then on top of that, he’d ripped open the burn bad enough to make her have to seek medical treatment. By the time he pulled up in the front gate at his parents’ house, he was no closer to figuring out what made this girl so different and so hard to not want than he’d been when he’d picked her up at the bakery.
    He picked her up out of the car and carried her into the house. His mom was there waiting as was his dad. His dad was laughing and his mom was scowling at him.
    “ For heaven’s sake, Alexander, what have you done? I thought you were kidding when you said you were bringing a woman…oh the poor dear. Take her up to the guest room and I’ll come with you.”
    Heather started to come around about halfway up the stairs. She stretched in his arms and smiled up at him. His heart took a serious skip and he had to stop moving or fall. She wrapped her arm around him again and snuggled deep into his neck before he could catch his breath. Then breathing became impossible. When she pressed her mouth to his, Alex was lost.
    He knew she was dreaming. There was no way she’d come this willingly into his arms without the drugs. But damn, it felt good to have her there. When she moaned against his mouth, Alex let her legs fall as she adjusted herself around him. Everything around them faded away as she slid her tongue along his and wrapped her fingers in his hair. His mom’s “oh my” had him wishing he’d taken Heather to his house. She stiffened in his arms and nearly launched herself away from him.
    “ What do you think you’re doing? You
