“Not usually,” she shared. “Thanks for the T-shirt. I was going to send you back for a robe, but this was easier.”

Gabriela allowed herself to scan his form. Outside in the sunlight, there was no way anyone could miss how fit he was. She stifled a laugh as one of the stagehands ran into his coworker while paying attention to Kole instead of everything around him.

“You without a shirt is distracting people,” Gabriela observed, trying to keep herself from smiling.

“Good. Keep them off-kilter, and we can see what’s really happening.”

“This is just another job for you, isn’t it?” Gabriela felt a stab of dismay.

“Let’s talk when we have you safe in the trailer.”

The last few minutes of the walk passed without either speaking. Tired after long emotional days of filming, Gabriela focused on not tripping over her own feet. When they reached the trailer, she watched Kole unlock the door. She tried not to notice that his back muscles rippled as he twisted the key.

Sex on a stick.

He signaled her to go first and followed her closely up the stairs. The second the door was locked, Kole caged her against the wall. His forearms pressed on either side of her head, leaving his face inches from hers. “Seeing that man trying to be your Daddy killed me today, Little girl. It gets harder every day. I may not survive this assignment,” he admitted in a harsh voice that revealed his emotions.

He seized her mouth with his and deepened the kiss immediately when she gasped in response. Seducing her as he explored her, Gabriela could do nothing but hold onto his broad shoulders as heat swirled around them. When he drew back slightly, they were both breathing hard.

“Remember when he touches you that you’re mine, Gabby,” he growled.

His gaze held hers, waiting for a response. Her heart pounded in her chest as she tried to find some bit of untruth in his gaze. Gabriela found only heat, passion, and something else. That something else made her rise onto her tiptoes to press her mouth back to his.

Kole’s response wowed her. As he devoured her mouth, he boosted her up slightly. Ripping his lips from hers, he demanded, “Wrap your legs around me, Little girl,” before turning his attention back to kissing her.

Without a second thought, Gabriela followed his directions. Linking her feet behind his trim waist, she gasped when he shifted slightly. His thick shaft pressed against her dampening panties. The hardness brushed over her most sensitive areas. Immediately, she wiggled to feel more.

“Gabby, I’ve been tested lately. I’m clean.”

“Me, too.”

Gabriela tightened her arms to pull his head down for another kiss. Even talking about intimate safety was sexy with Kole. The chemistry of the kiss exploded between them. When he ripped his mouth away, she tried to pull her thoughts together but could only stare at him in absolute shock at the heat he’d built inside her so quickly. She hadn’t known him for long, but Gabriela knew the impact he would leave on her would last forever. That should have scared her—but it didn’t.Tightening his arms around her with a groan, Kole stepped back from the wall. He took a second to double-check that the door was locked and grab a small pouch from his magical duffle before carrying her down the hallway to the bedroom. Pressing kisses to her neck and shoulders as he walked, Kole held her as if she were a precious treasure. Gabriela clung to him, wishing this would never end.

He hesitated at the foot of the bed. Meeting her gaze directly, he said, “Gabby girl. Tell me if you’re not ready for this. Once we’ve made love, I’ll never be able to let you go.”

She looked at the face of a man who had been a stranger just a short time ago. He’d stepped into her life as if he were supposed to be there. “Make me yours, Kole.”

“Daddy, Gabby. Can you call me Daddy?” he asked.

“I haven’t ever called anyone that. You know, in real life, not playacting,” she told him.

“Call me Daddy,” Kole repeated.

“Daddy…” Her voice trailed off. She didn’t know what to say to follow that.

Kole didn’t wait for any additional words. Propping one knee on the bed, he leaned forward to lay her gently on top of the comforter. Rising a bit to look over her, he growled, “I love you dressed in my clothes.”

“It smells like you,” she whispered before adding daringly, “but I think it needs to come off.” Taking hold of the hem, she wiggled, trying to pull it up.

“Hold still,” he ordered and wrapped his hands around the material, tearing it straight down the middle.

Gabriela gasped as the cool air-conditioned breeze reached her skin. The heat from his gaze quickly warmed her from the inside out. She loved the almost physical sensation of him looking at her.
