Read Love's Protector: A Maverick's Shield Novel for Free Online

couldn’t understand it. He had no idea who this woman was or anything about her, not even her name. Sure she was beautiful, but she didn’t exactly stand out. To describe her would be the same as describing most girls in L.A. What was it about this one?
    Mack gave Jason a mocking stare and then turned to the woman and held out his hand to her. “Hello, I’m Mack.”
    “Amour, nice to meet you.” She extended her hand to Mack’s. “Sorry, my hands are a little dirty.”
    “That’s okay, nothing wrong with a little dirt.” He then turned to Chandra. “If you guys will excuse me, I’m going to walk Officer Winslow back inside.”
    “Okay, I’ll be out here.” Jason spoke the words to Mack but never took his eyes off Amour. “I’m Jason…by the way.” 
    “It’s nice to meet you as well Jason.” She held her hand out to him.
    “Likewise.” The touch of her hand sent a jolt of electricity through his body that went straight down to his cock. What he was feeling may not have been love at first sight, certainly not, but it was definitely lust at first sight. Her touch brought certain thoughts to mind. Thoughts of her long legs wrapped around his hips and those lips wrapped around… Stop it! He said to himself. You don’t even know her! What the hell is wrong with you? Snap out of it! He shook his head slightly trying to get a hold of his senses. He cleared his throat. “Did you call the rental car place you got it from? Did you get the insurance?”
    “Yes, of course; they said it’s going to be an hour and a half to two hours before they can send a tow.” She looked away briefly and then caught eyes with him again. “I suppose I could catch a cab to the rental place if I don’t want to wait here but I’d still end up waiting there all the same because they won’t let me rent another one until they get this one back.”
    He realized that he may or may not have insulted her intelligence when she replied to his questions, he certainly hoped not but he had to say something that would distract him from his inappropriate thoughts. “Well, I have Triple A. I’m sure it won’t take them that long to come out and cabs cost a fortune. I could call them and the tow truck driver could take you to get another rental.”
    She shook her head. “You don’t have to do that. I can see that I’ve interrupted something you were in the middle of. I don’t want to take you away from anything important. I’ll just take a cab but thanks anyway.” She grabbed her cell phone out of the pocket of her denim skirt.
    “What’s all this talk about a cab?” Mack shouted as he and Chandra walked up behind Jason. “What’s going on here?”
    Jason turned to look at Mack. “The rental place she got her car from won’t be able to get a tow here for at least an hour and a half.”
    Mack pursed his lips. “Use your Triple A man! Don’t let her pay all that money for a cab.”
    “Gee, why didn’t I think of that?” Jason said sarcastically.
    Amour laughed and said, “That’s ok…Jason already offered; I can wait. You guys look like you were in the middle of something.”
    Jason liked the way she said his name. He wondered how she would sound saying it while he was inside of her… Stop it! He said again to himself.
    “No we weren’t,” Mack said as he turned to look at Jason with grin. “We were just stopping by here on our way somewhere else. Weren’t we Jason?”
    “Yes that’s true,” he said with irritation in his voice. He knew exactly what Mack was trying to pull and he didn’t appreciate it one bit.
    “Well then it’s settled. Triple A it is. Call them Jason.”
    Jason gave Mack a look that told him to shut the hell up and he spoke through gritted teeth. “She doesn’t want me to Mack.”
    “Sure she does.” Mack turned to Amour. “You need the help, we can provide it.”
    Still holding her cell in her hand, she hesitated and then turned to Jason. “Well if you don’t mind.”
    Mack
