The Bodyguard's Temptation
I was already halfway across the room before I knew what I was doing. What kind of people had she been surrounding herself with if she thought that she wasn't attractive? Hell, she was gorgeous, delicious, downright perfect in every way. I needed to show her what I saw. What she was in my eyes. I couldn't help myself.
I had Genevieve up against the wall in a blink of an eye, a growl escaping my throat and mixing with her surprised gasp. Her hands still clung to the robe, trying to make herself seem smaller. I slipped one hand underneath, along her collarbone, while the other slid along her neck, to the back of her head where I gripped her loose bun and pulled it taught.
"Babygirl, you're more than just attractive. You have my c*ck aching every time I set my eyes on you.” My voice was a distorted growl, but I know she understood every word I said. I leaned my body in against hers to accentuate my point, and Genevieve's adorable mouth widened with a surprised gasp. I took that opportunity to claim what I'd been dreaming off since the moment I set my eyes on her. I dipped my head and locked my lips on hers, and realized in that sweet, blissful moment, that I had f*cked up.

Genevieve Blake was a well-known, erotic romance author. She enjoyed meeting her fans and writing stories that made even her blush. What she hadn't planned on, though, was for a stalker to come out from the shadows and threaten her life. When the police can't do anything, she turns to Grim Security to protect her against the deranged lunatic. But who's going to protect her heart, and her body, from the intensity of Raphael Bard?

Chapter: Chapter 8: Party CrasherGenevieve:“I know you’re there.”His voice was distant and cruel. A crackly, angry tone that grated along my every bone, and yanked on every ridge of my spine. It was him. He was talking to me.He knew I was the one that answered? Anyone could have—He’s still here.As the world shifted around me, the edges of my vision a blur and my ears filled with the voices of the party-goers, I searched. I looked at the sea of faces and tried to pick him out. To notice anyone that was on the phone, yet a majority of them were. They were all laughing, joking, happy. Where the fuck was he?Raphael.I needed him. Was he still close?“Oh Genna, nothing to say to me?” His voice shocked me back to reality, my entire body vibrating with terror.I steeled my nerves. “What do you want?”His laugh cut into my chest and burned up through my throat as bile. “Oh Genna, isn’t that obvious? I want you.”“You can’t have me.” The words slipped out on a hiss that I wasn’t expecting, but they didn’t seem to faze h

Chapter: Chapter 7: My Bodyguard's MistakeGenevieve:“Ms. Blake?” A male’s voice slashed through the foggy atmosphere that was my brain and my entire body seized up.It’s not him, right? No, he wouldn’t be bold enough to waltz right up to me at a party like this.Right?Slowly, very slowly, I swiveled on my stool to make eye contact with the stranger that was only a foot away from me at this point. Where’s Raphael? Was he still close by? He didn’t leave me, right?There he is. His dark, calculated scowl is within my peripheral, his arms at his side and hands in tight fists. He’s there for me. The tension in my own shoulders began to relax and I gave my attention to the stranger once more.“Yes?”“I have a delivery,” The man explained. He handed over a large manila envelope and I did my best to retrieve it while my hands trembled.“Who’s it from?” My throat was closed up, my words garbled, but I knew the man’s answer before he even opened his mouth.“Sorry,” he shook his head, “I can’t say. The order comes in, and I deliver.”

Chapter: Chapter 6: Unwanted EmotionsRaphael:I shouldn’t have brought up her family. Genevieve trembled with her pent-up agony; I saw it in the way she responded to the text message. The sharp movements were coupled with the quivering breath she released once it was sent. I assumed the woman, ‘Jennifer’, was a relative, as she had reacted when I asked her about it.With issues of my own, I could see the anguish and heartache that was painted all over her as she looked up at me. Her eyes were wide, innocent, not aware of the thoughts that ran rampant through my mind. If she knew what I wanted to do to her…with her…she would run the opposite direction. We had barely just met and I already needed to take a step back. If I didn’t, I wasn’t sure what I would end up doing.As we slid into park near the entrance, all I could think about was the way my name sounded as it left Genevieve’s lips. The way her teeth gently pressed against her luscious lower lip halfway through and how her tongue curled at the end, just barely visibl

Chapter: Chapter 5: Family PainsGenevieve:“Are you alright?” Mr. Bard–no, Raphael was his name–leaned down to whisper into my ear as we sat next to each other in the SUV.A shiver burned its way from the tip of my shoulder where his own touched mine, and reverberated through my body and down my spine, heating my stomach at his closeness. His breath swayed the few strands of hair that lay against my cheek. Why did he constantly make my body crave his contact? It had been ages since I’d felt anything remotely this intense before.“Um, yeah. Just, it’s hard to move.” I shifted in my seat, the center one in the back row. I tried my best not to let my hips brush up against either Raphael or Vin, but it was impossible. Though Vin wasn’t as large and bulky as Raphael was, my oversized a*s made it so we were all squished together.Raphael cleared his throat as the side of my thigh rubbed against his. The smooth material of his slacks slid against my bare skin that peeked out from below my dress. I shouldn’t have worn it. B

Chapter: Chapter 4: CompromiseRaphael:She was fucking gorgeous. Her pouted lips drooped just enough that they were begging for someone to lay claim to them. Her greyish eyes were anything but innocent, and yet still held a naivety about them. She was no stranger to having a stalker, or even the fear that it invoked within her. The idea of what she must have gone through—was going through—it curdled within my stomach and boulders rolled, ready to send my fists into someone’s face. She needed protecting. This was more serious than I thought, and if the police weren’t going to do a damn thing for her, I sure as hell would.I wouldn’t let anyone defile her life anymore.Not even my sorry ass.“Are you serious?” Genevieve’s assistant gasped. What was her name again? She handed me her card earlier, but the moment my eyes had fallen on the vivacious goddess before me, my mind had veered. It still was off track, but not enough to know that I had work to do. I needed to be professional. I couldn’t get stuck with my dick o

Chapter: Chapter 3: A Tough DecisionGenevieve:Could he stop staring? It wasn’t that unusual for men to stare, I mean, they usually did especially when they found out what I did for a living, but the way this man, Mr. Bard, was doing so kept me on constant edge. I could feel his eyes follow my every move. It wasn’t as uncomfortable as it was when others stared at me. Like his two coworkers who I completely forget the names of. There was a dark, heated allurement to his gaze that had my heart in a constant quiver.Luckily, Karoline did most of the talking. I don’t think I could handle all three sets of masculine eyes on me right now. Not while this particular one was already staring me down.“Thank you again for coming so quickly.” Karoline took a seat next to me on the couch once she had handed one of the men across from me a glass of water.“We’re sorry we couldn’t get here earlier. We were taking a weekend off from our last client and didn’t get to the office until today,” the man on the right explained after he took
