Oh, God, the thought of being in the same bed with him made her feel so hot, and her breasts and clit became swollen and achy. She wasn’t ignorant or even a virgin, so she knew what that meant, and she knew without a doubt, she would never be able to sleep.
Chapter Six
Travis sighed and sat down on the bed when she started pacing again. She was almost making him dizzy. Shit, he’d have to find out if the hotel had sleeping pills or alcohol. He’d try anything to get her to sleep. She was beyond exhausted. If it came down to it, as a last option, he’d get her to come a few times. That was sure to put her out.
“Get in bed,” he demanded again.
“You don’t understand. I won’t be able to sleep.”
“I guarantee I can make you sleep.”
She stopped and turned to him. “You can’t say that.”
“Do you trust me?”
She stared at him for a long moment, making him squirm before she nodded.
“If Kaleb and Aleena think you’re great, I guess I should, too.”
“Thank you,” he said dryly. “Now get in…”
“Can I talk to Aleena, please?”
He rolled his eye and reached for his phone. “I’ll be right back.” He walked out onto their balcony to get a bit of privacy and closed the door. He dialed the number.
“Do you have her taken care of?”
Travis smiled. “Yes, right now, she’s pacing in our hotel room.” He knew what was coming when Kaleb paused.
“Is that the way it is?”
“I don’t know. I do know I’m attracted to her.”
“How does she feel?” Kaleb asked.
“I know she’s attracted to me, but she’s fatigued, and not a lot is making sense to her. Hell, she probably thinks she’s still a perp.”
“A what?” Kaleb yelled.
He explained some of what David had told him.
Kaleb roared out a laugh. It took a good minute for him to gain control. “That’s priceless.”
“Yeah, she thought she was being detained for a crime.”
“They didn’t scare her, did they?” Kaleb asked, concerned.
“No.” Travis chuckled. “You’re going to love this. She was teaching the cop in charge of her about not trusting anyone.”
Travis waited for the laughing to stop. “I’ll tell you all of it when we get there in a few days.”
“In a few days?”
“Yes, we’re going to take the scenic route so she can get to know me and is comfortable with me.”
“That’s a good plan.”
“She needs to talk to Aleena. She won’t settle until she does.”
