He saw her as one of those women with dubious intentions, yet found himself inexplicably drawn to her, intrigued by her occasional mischief and cunning.

At times, she seemed wild and prickly, akin to a spirited kitty.

However, in matters of love, she appeared flustered and uncertain.

Even after that particular night, she remained as pure and beautiful as a pristine sheet of paper.

Now, having Laid down his suspicions about that night and discovered the truth, the love he had suppressed surged forth like a volcanic eruption.

Domenic’s gaze fixated on Lindsey, ablaze with passion.

Despite whatever she might think about the day’s events or Andrew’s capabilities, having him was paramount to anything else.

With him standing by her side, she held the freedom to pursue anything she desired.

But…

Domenic grasped Lindsey’s shoulders, turning her to face him.

“Do you realize how perilous today’s incident was? Why did you risk it alone?

Why keep me in the dark?”

Locking eyes with Domenic, Lindsey bit her lip, then said, “He’s a big deal, the head of a huge company.

I don’t want you getting tangled up in that.

Domenic gave a helpless chuckle and lightly tapped her nose with his finger.

With a smirk, he whispered in a husky and captivating tone, “Hey, remember your words? I’m your man.

Next time something comes up, let me know.

I’ve got your back, alright? Avoid taking any risks alone.

Lindsey’s cheeks turned pink.

She’d only been thinking of freeing Selah from Andrew’s grip.

The fear of what could have gone wrong still haunted her.

The thought of facing those risks alone was too much.

Feeling Domenic’s concern warmed her through and through.

She looked up at him, her eyes shining, and nodded.

“Got it.

I’ll Listen to you.

Seeing her agree so readily, Domenic affectionately ruffled her hair.

“Let’s go home,” he said softly.

Her smile lit up at that, bright and hopeful.

“sure.

Once they got back, Lindsey had just shut the door when Domenic’s hands were suddenly on her shoulders, pressing her gently against the door.

He leaned in close, his presence surrounding her.

His breath tickled her ear.

“Now that we’re home, we can pick up where we left off.

Her ears turned red.

She hadn’t expected him to bring up their interrupted moment in the hotel bathroom.
