Page 6 of My Cowboy Bodyguard

I move to a mat and motion for her to follow me. “Over here. Turn and put your back to me.”

Oh, sweet apple pie she does exactly that.I guess I wasn’t clear enough. She didn’t leave any space between our bodies. Her ass is against the front of my pants and my rapidly growing cock.

I clasp her upper arms and move her away.

“Too close?” she asks, completely oblivious to my reaction.

“A little.” I clear my throat, forcing myself to stop thinking the dirty thoughts I’m having. “First scenario. Someone comes up behind you, and you realize it’s a bad situation. What’s the first thing you do?”

“Reach back and?—”

We both freeze as she grabs my cock.

“I didn’t mean to do that,” she says. “I swear. I put my hand back to push you away.”

Meanwhile, my cock is ecstatic.

“Amanda, let go.”

She jerks her hand around the front of her body and lets out a groan of embarrassment.

“If you’re going for a man’s junk, make it count.”

She spins to face me. “I didn’t mean to. I would never grab that big—” She presses her lips together on a wince.

I grind my teeth together, buying a few precious seconds for cock composure.

“Let’s move on.” She’s obviously flustered and I want to put her at ease.

Relief crosses her face.

An hour later, she flops onto the mat, breathing fast.

I walk to the back to bring her a bottle of water.

She sits upright and takes it.

When she smiles, I’m slammed with a sense of déjà vu. “Are you from here?” I don’t know how I would have missed her around town during my school days but anything’s possible.

Her smile withers like an unwatered flower under a brutal sun.

“No.”

I wait for her add more to that, but she stands. “I should head home.”

“I’ll take you.”

She glances toward one of the windows and stares intently at the dark before she nods. “Okay. I’m in the apartments behind the library.”

I frown. Lucky River is a safe little town where everyone looks out for their neighbor, but I’ve been in that building and I’m not comfortable with how easy it is to get inside. I’m going to do something about that.

“Alright, let’s go.” I hit the lights as I reach for the door and the room plunges into darkness.

“Turn the lights on!”

Her voice is pitched high, dripping with fear.

I hit the switch. I thought she was right behind me.
