Timmons‘ muscles bunch beneath me, his cold cinnamon brown eyes flashing with something that almost looks like hurt before he says, “You just never do as you’re told, do you?”

For a moment, I think he’s going to drop me on my ass, and honestly, he probably would have, except the fleeting reminder of my being pregnant must stop him. “I told you I can walk,” I snap, my mind washing past all the events that led us here and then coiling up my stubborn spine like they should have done the very first time he was ever mean to me. “I know how much you hate to touch me.”

He chuckles, surprising me, his eyes crinkling happily in the corners as a slow sad smile stretches across his boyishly handsome face. “Good to know I came off as clearly as I wanted to. Guess that means it won’t be so hard to convince you otherwise… later tonight.”

I have a very cozy one bedroom trailer that pay one whole thousand dollars a month for – just to call home – and that is where I’ll be going.”

If you’d like to fight me on it, I guess I can always put you in handcuffs and force you to do what I say,” Timmons declares, not even gazing in my direction as he unlocks the side door to his place and steps under the carport that houses his Camaro.

Handcuffs… yummy.

Don’t you dare get all

I can’t help it, and before I can even take a deep breath, I feel it. My core heating. Moisture dispersing. And Timmons… tensing.
