just playing with her? Trying to scare her?”
“I don’t know. If we’re right and he’s been in the house with her and us this whole fucking time, then it means that he gets off on the control part of it all… the all-knowing observation of someone who has no idea they’re even being watched. But now that we’ve removed her, he may well escalate again.”
“Yeah.”
“So be careful what you say in that house, man. Do not mention where Olivia is – tell everyone she’s booked in to a hotel, OK?”
“Roger that.”
Dallas sighed. “I’m going to take her to my place now, try to get her to rest.”
“Yeah, good luck with that,” Mark said. “If I were her? I’d probably never close my eyes again.”
Chapter Six
Olivia pulled the t-shirt that Dallas had given her over her head. Even though she’d just had a long, hot shower, she was still shivering. She pulled on Dallas’ socks then regarded herself in the bathroom mirror.
Despite the terror and general awfulness of the situation, she smiled a bit at her appearance. Dallas’ shirt hung off her slim body and covered her to almost her knees; the socks were about five sizes too big for her. But the clothing smelled of him, and she held the shirt to her nose and inhaled deeply, finding comfort in it. It felt like he was right there with her, and she immediately felt safe.
She heard a knock at the door and she jumped.
“Olivia? You OK?”
“Yeah,” she called back. “Be out in a sec.”
She tugged the t-shirt down as far as it could go and came out. Dallas was standing there and his eyes took her in. He was painfully, achingly aware of the fact that she was naked under his shirt and he tried very hard to not think about it. He failed in spectacular fashion.
“So what do you think, baby?’ he asked gently. “You hungry?”
She shook her head.
“You feel like you can get some rest?”
“No.” She looked down at the floor. “I’m – I can’t get past the idea of him watching me sleep…”
He reached for her then and she went to him right away, eager for his warmth and strength. Dallas wrapped her in his arms and she tried to relax. The thought of closing her eyes terrified her, even though Dallas would be between her and the door, with a gun.
This guy has shown that he can get to me even with people right outside, watching every door and window. How hard would it be for him to get in here, even with Dallas’ security system on the windows? Alarms and codes are child’s-play for this asshole…
He stepped back suddenly, held her away from him. “Olivia?”
“Yeah?” she said.
“You want me to stay in the room with you?”
She started, stared up at him. “What?”
His blue eyes were intense. “I can sit in a chair next to the bed with my gun. Watch over you while you sleep.”
The thought of him standing guard simultaneously touched and aroused her. Liv’s mouth went dry as she imagined herself totally vulnerable and helpless, Dallas’s huge body sitting next to her in the darkness, all through the night.
“Would you…” She cleared her throat. “You’d do that?”
He nodded. “Anything to make you feel safe enough to sleep, baby.”
“OK.” Her voice was so quiet, he barely heard it.
“Good.” He touched her cheek. “I’m going to have a shower and get cleaned up, so you wait right here outside the door. Five minutes, alright?”
“Yeah.”
He went in to his bedroom and grabbed some fresh clothes, then he headed in to the bathroom. She heard the shower turn on, and she imagined him naked, just on the other side of the door. She felt her breath come faster, shallower; her pussy moistened, her nipples hardened.
Oh, God, girl. You are in serious, serious trouble .
Dallas stood under the hot spray, eyes closed, willing his hard-on to go away. His cock had hardened the second he’d held her against him with nothing but the thin t-shirt material between him and her curves. It had been a huge effort
