Chapter 14

“Hope?”

“Mmmm?” she answered.

“You okay?”

“Mmm-hmm,” she sounded not saying anything.

“Can you release me now?”

“Sshhhh,” was all she said. She didn’t move for some time still but finally, she pushed up on his chest. She looked down at him with a hint of a smile.

“Are you going to arrest me?” she asked.

“Nahhh Hope. I don’t think so.”

She studied his face looking for a sign that he was lying. She couldn’t see any.

“I think I prefer you like this though,” she said smiling.

“Why?”

“Because I’ve got all your attention.”

“You’ve always got all my attention.”

“Really?”

“How do you think I ended up in this situation in the first place?” he murmured with a hint of a smile.

“Oh yes. That’s true,” she smiled. She paused then added, “But still. Let’s talk like this.”

“I am going to spank your ass again,” he said.

“I hope you can do it with your legs,” she smiled.

“Very funny,” he growled.
