I watch her from my window.
She’s strong, yet vulnerable. She’s hiding from something and that makes her mine to protect.
She needs someone strong; someone like me.
Inside, I can’t stop thinking about her. Strong but scared, independent yet needing protection.
And damn, she’s beautiful.
Those curves, that determined look. I need to get closer to her, to protect her, to make her mine.
Seeing her struggle ignites something primal. I want to be her rock, her protector —she needs security. I will be that for her.
In the kitchen, she watches me. She’s curious, maybe attracted.
The smell of cookies fills the air. She moves around, and I imagine touching her, holding her.
She’s intoxicating. Her lips look so soft, her body so inviting.
She looks at me, attracted. I’m definitely attracted to her. I need to be patient, build her trust.
She’s already mine in my mind.
I’ll protect her, no matter what. She belongs with me.
It’s only a matter of time before I feel her skin against mine, her body under mine.
Allison
I pull into the driveway, heart pounding. A new place, a new start, but my nerves are shot.
No one knows where I am. I'm safe.
I grip the steering wheel, trying to steady my thoughts.
Why can’t I move?
I scan the neighborhood. Everything seems perfect, but I can't shake the feeling of being watched.
New phone, new accounts, new life. I’m Allison Dupree now. No history, just a future.
I step out, glancing around, expecting shadows. My heart races as I rush inside. Curtains first. Privacy. Security.
I keep glancing at my neighbor’s house. Logan.
He’s strong, imposing, comforting. And damn, he’s attractive.
Those broad shoulders, those abs, that body…
Focus, Allison. This isn’t the time.
But I can't help but wonder how his hands would feel on me, how his lips would taste.
In this steamy short story, Logan, an ex-military alpha hero, becomes fiercely protective of his new neighbor, Allison. As her past resurfaces, his possessive instincts ignite a fiery, sensual passion between them, leading to an unbreakable and intense, sensual bond. Standalone/HEA
