KANE

By the time I get to Violet's house, it's late and I'm even more irritable than I was at the start of the day. I've called Zoe multiple times, and she hasn't answered. I'm worried that no one is going to let me in, and I'll have to camp out like the damn paparazzi.

I hit the buzzer and wait for someone to answer.

"What?"

"I'm Kane Devereux."

"Congratulations, I'm Sandy."

"Nice to meet you, Sandy. I'm assuming you're one of Violet's new bodyguards. I'm her boyfriend. Can you let me in?"

"I'll look at the list."

I stand at the gate for several minutes. I don't want to push the buzzer again, but I'm starting to think I've been forgotten when the door beside the gate opens and a woman that doesn't look like a typical bodyguard lets me in.

"Sandy?"

"Yup." She walks me into the house and points me toward the stairs. "Liz and I agreed that you can just go upstairs, but we'll be listening for sounds of distress. Let me say that again. Sounds of distress."

"I think I get it." Laughing I start up the stairs but stop. "I'm glad that you have my girl's back. Will you tell Liz I said the same goes for her?"

"Sure will, and know that just because the big, strong man is here doesn't mean that we aren't still on protection detail."

"I'm not getting in your way. I'm here to win back my love." I turn and head up the stairs and realize that I don't know which room is hers. Luckily, I open her bedroom door with my first guess.

I walk in and find her fast asleep under a mountain of blankets. She's so beautiful it takes my breath away. I want to climb in behind her and sleep next to her, but I don't want to scare her.

Sitting down on the edge of her bed, I softly say her name, "Violet, gorgeous, wake up."

She mumbles something and digs her head deeper into her pillows.

"Violet, please wake up for me. Just for a second and then you can go back to bed." I run my hand along the small sliver of her arm that shows above the blankets.

"Kane?" Her eyes slowly open and she sits up bearing her upper body to me. "Are you really here?"

"Yes, gorgeous, I'm here." I lean close to her and close the gap between us. Our lips touch and it feels just like it did the first time. Sparks fly.

She pulls back and pulls the covers up to cover her breasts. "Why are you here? Didn't your dad tell you what I said?"

"He told me what you said, but did you think I was going to stay away from you?"

"I don't want you to get hurt because of me. There were threats against you." Tears gather in her eyes, breaking my heart.

"Violet, I'm fine and really tough to kill. Plus, we have Liz and Sandy to protect us. Nothing is getting past those two."

"My supermodel bodyguards."

"Is that their secret weapon?" I sit against her headboard, and she leans into my side as I wrap an arm around her.

"Yes, they're both gorgeous and no one would ever think they're deadly. They are undercover as my friends from childhood if anyone asks."

"Sounds good. I told Sandy that I'm just here to get my girl. They can do the protection stuff."

"I've missed you, Kane. I'm sorry I left you at the cabin, as soon as I drove away, I knew it was a mistake."

"It's okay. I know that things are scary, and you thought you were protecting me, but we're stronger together."

She leans her face up to mine and I kiss her lips. How could I miss her so much after less than twenty-four hours apart?

"You know it's bedtime, Kane," Violet says coyly. "I think you should get ready for bed and join me under these covers. Or I have a guestroom across the hall if you want to sleep by yourself."

I stand up and pull my shirt over my head. Violet sits up, once again letting the sheet slip and exposing her gorgeous breasts to my sight. I start to get back on the bed, but she stops me.

"Do you sleep in jeans?"

I stand back up. "Not usually."

"Then don't you think you should take them off?"

"I guess I should," I say with a wink. Undoing the button, I slowly take my jeans off, enjoying the way her eyes watch as I expose my hard cock.

"Now you can come to bed," she says as she pulls back the covers, exposing her naked body.

I climb in next to her and pull her against me. I kiss my way down her body, taking her gorgeous nipples one at a time into my mouth. I start to make my way the rest of the way down her body when Violet stops me.

"I just need you tonight."

"Are you sure?"

"I need to feel you move in me," she says as she spreads her legs to wrap around my waist.

I flip over to my back and raise her on top of me. "You're in charge, gorgeous."

She raises her hip and lines her pussy up against the tip of my cock, then with deliberate slowness she moves down my shaft until I'm fully seated inside her.

"It feels so good, Kane." Violet begins to move her body up and down in a rhythm natural to both of us.

"God, Violet." I put my hands on her hips to help her move faster. She leans forward just a little, her clit rubbing against the hard plane of my body every time she comes down.

"I'm going to come."

"Come for me, gorgeous." She loses her rhythm, so I help her keep moving and move one hand to rub tight circles on her clit.

"Kane!" She yells as she comes undone, the grip of her walls on my cock causing me to come at the same time.

As we both come down from the high and lay together, I start laughing. Violet looks at me questioningly. "I really hope that didn't sound like distress. Sandy warned me that any sounds of distress would bring her and Liz to kick my ass."

"I'll protect you, honey," Violet promises as she snuggles close.

I pull the covers up and kiss her head as she drifts off to sleep. I can't wait to be able to start my life with this woman. It's time to find out who's been stalking her and end it.
