muscle on the side was twitching every few seconds.
Oh boy.
I took a step away from his embrace and really saw him.
He was breathtaking.
He was gorgeous, the most gorgeous man I’d seen…ever.
His dark wavy hair was wild, like he just ran his hands through it. I wanted to reach up and run my own hands though it to see if it was as soft as it looked. Days’ worth of dark scruff surrounded his mouth and jaw– and all I could imagine was the feel of it scratching against my skin.
He was also tall, like Danny.
His shoulders were big and broad. His arms were muscular and defined under the black long sleeve shirt that pulled tightly across his chest. His chest was rock solid right down to his stomach where his hips were narrowed and I could only imagine the v at the top of his jeans, which were hanging perfectly off his hips.
Oh my fucking good lord.
I quickly turned my head, realizing I was just standing there looking at him with my jaw dropped in awe. I tried to pull out of his embrace but he wouldn’t budge. His arms just held tighter, squeezing my waist.
I turned my head back in his direction, my eyes directly on his solid chest in front of me. I looked up at him from under my lashes before I tilted my head back.
Then he spoke.
“You’re shaking like a leaf; let’s get you home.” His voice was all kinds of rough.
I didn’t say anything, just nodded and let him guide me to his truck that he had parked not far from where we were standing. His arm was around my waist, his hand firmly against my hip as I had mine crossed in front of my chest– trying to keep warm as I walked with him on shaky legs.
He let go of me to open the door, and I stood back looking over my shoulder. His hand touched my elbow making me jump. I turned my head to find his dark eyes searching my fear filled face.
I swallowed hard. “What’s going to happen,” I motioned back to where everything had happened. “I mean since he got away and all.”
His eyes flared and I felt his body stiffen through his touch, and then relax just as quick. “We’ll find him, guys are already on it. Don’t think he got very far,” he said his voice tight, as he gently nudged me towards the open door of his truck.
I nodded.
He helped me into the truck then closed the door. I grabbed my seatbelt and pulled it across my chest, and tried to click it into the buckle. I hadn’t heard him get in the truck, so when his hand softly covered my shaky one I jumped in my seat. His hand lingered on mine for a few seconds before he ran his warm, rough thumb over the back of my hand softly, before pulling away.
I looked up and our eyes met, locking instantly. My shoulders fell as I felt the tension drain, and my body finally began to relax and I felt safe, the safest I had felt; ever. I gave him a small smile, then our connection was broken when he abruptly turned, and put the truck in drive. Then, just as fast as he broke the connection, he pulled out of the lot, heading to my place.
The information I got was right after all.
I knew she was here in Camden, a shit hole town, I just didn’t know where. I thought I was going to be stuck here awhile looking for her, but I guess luck was on my side.
When I walked into Fisher’s and took up the only free table in the corner, my eyes were wandering around the place. The bar, like the town and everything I had seen of it so far, was a complete dive.
My waitress came, took and brought back my drink order and I was two sips into it when I heard her name hollered loudly across the bar.
“Lexie, drinks are up.”
I’d been in town two days and I found her my first fucking night. I didn’t think it would be so fucking easy to find her.
I pulled my lips away from my glass and looked in the direction of the voice and saw her. Just like that, there she was standing in front of the bar in a short skirt and skimpy almost see through white shirt. I could only see the side of her face but I knew it was
