him.
     
                  “You are mine and will do as I say or else.” He could smell her anger as well as his own as they squared off with each other.
     
                  “Or else what? You’ll take me back to Yhadell?” She was baiting him to see how far she could push him. “That’s what I want anyway!”
     
                  He couldn’t let her think his threat was empty. “Or else I will lock you in the room and only let you out when I am with you!” It was a bit extreme, but he needed to make sure she was safe at all times and with her wandering off alone in a place she wasn’t familiar with didn’t sit right with him.
     
                  “You wouldn’t dare!” she fired back.
     
                  She left him no choice. As quick as lightening, he reached out and jerked her forward. He threw her over his shoulder then made his way back inside.
     
                  “Oh my God! Put me down! This is ridiculous! I am a grown woman and can take care of myself! I don’t need you or anyone else looking out for me.” She pounded on his back with her small fists. Her feet kicked furiously as she tried to get herself free, but it was no use. She was no match for his strength.
     
                  He strode through the hallways and up the stairs with her screaming and shouting at him the entire way. Guards stepped to the side as they walked past but said nothing. Two housekeepers back into an open room giggling and whispering.
     
                  He kicked open the door to their room then kicked it closed again and locked it. The room was darker since the day was coming to an end but still enough light to see by. He dumped her unceremoniously on the sofa then stood over her as she scrambled to right herself. For as small as she was compared to him, he was surprised by how quickly she could move. Before he knew it, she was standing up on the couch and in his face.
     
                  “How dare you! That’s twice in one day you’ve treated me like a sack of potatoes!” She jabbed him in the chest with each word she spit out.
     
                  He was going to let her vent out her anger then he would set her straight. He would make her realize that she belonged to him and that she needed to be protected until the threat of an escaped prisoner was resolved.
     
                  “You got that, big guy?”
     
                  Her face was flushed and she was breathing heavy causing her breasts to rise and fall. He glanced down at the globes he so wanted to see and touch. A wave of pure lust engulfed him as he stared at the delicate skin. Her lips were puffy from her biting and licking them in a way that was a total turn on for him. If he didn’t get out of there soon, he would do something he would come to regret.
     
                  He straightened up until he was at his full height. Kelly seemed to back down a little as he towered over her but not enough to make him want to stay in the room with her.
     
                  “You will remain in this room unless I come to escort you.”
     
                  “I will not! I am a police officer and can take care of myself. You have no right to keep me locked in this room.”
     
                  For the time being, he gave up the fight. He didn’t want to argue with her or continue to make her upset. He was only doing what he thought was best for her safety. Those deep brown eyes never left his face as she balanced herself on the cushions of the sofa.
     
                  “I will be back later,” he stated then turned to leave the room. As he strode to the door, he could hear her mumbling quietly behind him.
     
                  “Don’t bother on my account!”
     
                  He shut the door quietly behind him. He needed someplace
