moved aside to wave at the ambulance swinging into the parking lot. As the paramedics examined her, Jessica kept her attention on the handsome Nathan, who was pacing nearby. Agreeing to be taken to hospital for a full check-up, Nathan passed her a folded piece of paper.
    “For the insurance company. All my contacts are on here. Please, get in touch if you need anything.”
    Gripping her packet of strong painkillers and thanking the doctor, Jess walked slowly out of the hospital. She was going to be fine, but the results in the bathroom mirror were quite horrific. The bruise on her nose had deepened and spread under her eyes, and she had a hefty split on her bottom lip. Jess’s usually perfectly made-up face looked as though it had been in a bar fight.
    ‘No-one to look pretty for anyway.” She thought, bitterly. As she approached the doors she pulled out her cell phone to call her best friend Sophie. She wanted to share the dramatic day with someone, plus she needed a lift home as her car was likely to have to be towed to a garage. Just as she’d found Sophie’s name on the contact list, Jess heard someone shouting her name.
    Looking around, she spotted Nathan jogging towards her.
    “Jessica!” He waved as he got closer. “I hope you don’t think this is crazy. Just, well, I figured you’d need a ride back home. Or to your car? I saved your groceries.” He held up the bag and smiled shyly. ”Look, I understand if you don’t want to come with me but I want to help. I could call someone for you?”
    Jess looked at the tall, worried man pleading with her. She swept over his athletic physique:  the tease of those sexy tattoos only slightly exposed on parts of his upper arm and collarbone were enticing, and his angular jaw was starting to darken with the shadow of stubble, which made him look manlier than his manner suggested. Then, she looked again at those eyes and reckless as it seemed, made up her mind to accept his offer. He was too nervous to be dangerous, she surmised, and the heavy pulse throbbing in her groin over-rode any rational thinking.
    “Where do you need me to drop you?” Nathan glanced at her from the driver’s seat. Jess considered: she was feeling quite floaty from the painkillers but that seemed to be adding to the horny ebb in her genitals. She pondered how bad she looked but quickly decided she di dn’t care. It had been too long, she was finally ready and God, she wanted this man.
    “Your place?” She tilted her head and lifted her eyes suggestively to Nathan. He obviously saw the desire in them and swerved slightly.
    “Erm, sure.” He gave a small laugh and Jess relished the sliver of pleasure his awkwardness gave her. She could feel herself starting to moisten and tilted her pelvis forward on the seat, closing her eyes at the pressure on her clitoris.
    “Just so you know , I’m not from here.” Nathan continued. “I’m staying in a hotel close to town, is that ok?”
    Just to make sure Nathan understood exactly what she was coming back for; she placed her hand on the top of his thigh, resting her little finger on the crease by his groin.
    “That’s fine.” She said softly, not quite believing her brazen actions but being too overwhelmed by lust to analyze them. He looked quickly at the slender hand on his leg and pushed his foot down on the gas.
    The hotel was nothing special: the decor was starting to look shabby and there was a stale, musty smell that the small open window could not combat. Nathan swept some abandoned clothes off of a tatty chair in the corner and shifted anxiously from foot to foot.
    “You want coffee?” He gestured to a travel kettle on the cheap wooden dresser.
    “No.” Jess replied abruptly. “I’m just going to use the bathroom.”
    The yellow light made her skin look sallow and she winced at the sight of the angry purple bruise spreading across the middle of her face. Leaning towards her reflection, she could not believe she had reverted back to
