The Billionaire's Lost Lady

Chapter 34: Mrs. Anderson

Jace

She was smiling in her sleep. Her arms were tight around my torso and head set on my chest. I was content. I kept my head up with an arm behind my head, resting against the headboard of the bed.

Her little hair sparlwed on my muscles holding her up on me and the sun soaked her beautiful skin. I wanted her again. She was too good to me last night and I couldnt believe she confessed. She finally confessed that she loved me.

I was over the moon when the words reached me.

She was in one of my t-shirts, I'd brought along the way with me. I lied to her about packing her stuff and made her slide herself into my shirt before she could lay with me. She liked being clothed in bed. It was a thing she'd been doing since I knew her. I never questioned it and always gave her the best comfort possible.

I had to admit though, it was different seeing her with all the weakness under her eyes and the pipe under her nose. They stopped bothering me physically after a couple days of seeing her in it. It was the trauma that bugged us both in that time of hers.

Lucky for us, it was over. She was well, healthy and there was no sign of any cancer cells in her blood, according to a couple months old blood test. Doctor Samian was a good friend of dad's so it was easy for him to read Selene's case file and bring her condition out to a conclusion. I had to know her exact position so I knew how to take care of her. Despite us having passed the hard part of our lives, I had to take every precaution to make sure it never came back for us.

"You're staring." She murmured and I snickered.

"You're beautiful. I dont have a choice." I ran a finger in circles on her arm.

"Tsk." She slapped the hand away but I did it more.

"Jace!" She groaned trying to role out of me. I held her back and moved her all the way on top of me.

"Let me sleep." She moaned, dropping her head on my chest and snuggling in further. I grinned and ran fingers in her hair.

"Sleep as much as you want, baby." I whispered, enjoying the moment. I couldnt think of the real reason I'd brought her to the cabin. I didnt want to.

Apparently, Aaron Blane had been checking out Selene's apartment complex ever since I was found. So, after we left, I moved Angelika into an apartment on the floor below my penthouse. I refrained her and myself from telling Selene anything because the last thing she needed was another drill on her head. I didnt know what he wanted, Selene or me, either way... he wasnt getting either.

Basically, I'd brought Selene out to a safe house. Everyone knew about this place, her father, Carlisle, Sean, even Allan, bethany and Sydney. They were informed because they needed to be on alert as well. Twisted minds could go for anything to reach out to their target.

"Jace?" Her voice mumbled on my skin. The vibration from her tone tickled me.

"Yes." I sang, pulling hair away from her face.

"I love you." She raised her head to match my face and rested her chin on my body. She gave out a soft smile. Feeling exhilarated, I took her waist in both my hands and she yelped, falling on top of me on the bed.

"You what?" I questioned and she crossed her arms on my chest, resting her chin on the hill of her palms.

"I love you." She beamed and I laughed, rolling us over on the bed and getting on top of her.

"You do?" I confirmed like a high school kid. Heck, she raised that kid again.

"I think so." She teased, playing dumb and I dipped with a lingering kiss on her lips.
