She liked the sound of that.

Within seconds, he had her on the bed, and she cried out as he ran a hand down her body, reaching between her thighs to cup her.He slid a single finger within her, and she already felt how wet she was herself, without even touching.He used a second finger, stretching her, and then she felt his thumb stroking across her clit.

“Please, I want you inside me,” she said.

Pat removed his fingers, and he moved between her thighs.She stared up into his eyes, not wanting to look away, as inch by inch, he started to slide inside her.

She wrapped her arms around his neck as he came down and kissed her.He completely stole her breath.There was nothing else she wanted and no one else she ever wanted to be with.She wanted to belong to him completely.

He took hold of her hands, pressing them either side of her head, then he started to slowly make love to her.This time, he didn’t rush.Everything was slow, precise, and she felt every inch of him, whimpering as he pushed her over the edge.

He had also been informed that Violet was the one who stayed up to give Doc a wave, before closing the door at night.

“Still no change?”Bull asked.

It was Rusty who spoke up.“No, no change.She’s still out of it, but the doctors believe this could be a good thing.The drugs have time to get out of her system.”

Rusty looked like shit.Lidia hadn’t woken up at the hospital.The doctors were monitoring her closely, and there was no reason she shouldn’t wake up.They were not entirely sure if it was a coma, or the body’s way of dealing with the trauma she experienced.

“Shit,” Rip said.“If she had woken up, we could have figured out who is making these attacks.”

“I’m fucking telling you, this is Ranford,” Grant said.

Everyone turned to look at Grant, who held his hands up in the air.

“Yeah, yeah, I know, you all fucking think that piece of shit is on our team because of what happened to his brother.If what Pat claims to be true actually is—”
