her with the pointed tip of a black one. He waited until she had lifted the marker to speak. "Hadley?"
She turned toward the doorway and smiled at him. "Finn!"
Now that she was facing him, he could see the green electrode stickers dotting her chest and
abdomen. The wires were all gathered to the left side of her hip and were attached to a cell phone
sized device clipped onto the waistband of her shorts. Lifting his gaze to her face, he read her taut
expression and felt awful for her. It couldn't be easy to walk around like a science experiment.
"That's new," he said casually and crossed the studio. He placed their dinner on a worktable
and leaned down to kiss her. Careful with his hand, he settled it against the small of her back before
dipping down to claim her lush pout. He made sure she understood that he had missed her today by
kissing her until she was fisting the front of his shirt and making whimpering noises. His cock started
to throb to life, but he ignored the primitive impulse for now. Later&
Biting her lip and gazing up at him so adoringly, she smiled. "I guess the monitor doesn't freak
you out."
He shook his head. "No."
"I have to wear it for twenty-four hours. It allows the cardiac team to see exactly how my heart
is beating."
"Are there any restrictions while you're using it?"
Her eyes flashed with something akin to mischief. "No. Why?"
He shrugged nonchalantly. "Just wondering."
Walking her fingers up his arm, she sidled closer and brushed her lips the sensitive curve of his
throat. "Are you wondering about me naked, Finn?"
He shivered as her soft tongue flicked at his skin. "Might be."
She ran her hands over his chest. "All you have to do is ask."
He chuckled quietly and kissed her again. His hand rode the curve of her back and landed on
her tight little ass. He palmed her plump flesh. "And if I asked you to strip and crawl up onto that
table so I have my dessert first?"
Heat flushed her cheeks the prettiest shade of tawny pink. She gulped and licked her lips. "I
would have definitely have to hit the event record button on this monitor."
He laughed. "Oh, I see. So when we're& ?"
She nodded. "That's the deal."
"Hmm," he said, feigning uncertainty while he peppered kisses up and down her neck. "I'm not
sure how I feel about being graded by strangers."
"You'd better show them your best work."
"Is that a dare?"
She bit her lip. "I have a feeling I've just gotten myself into trouble."
"Something tells me that's a position you find yourself in quite often."
They both laughed. After a few more yearning kisses, Finn insisted they eat diner while it was
still hot. They moved to the dining room and had a nice meal together. She talked to him about her
appointment with Dr. Rae and what her future surgery would probably entail. She spoke with such
resignation. It saddened him greatly.
What was it like to grow up knowing that there were always going to be limits? Hadley clearly
fought like hell to break those limits. She had done amazing things in her short life, but was she fueled
by a desire to accomplish as much as possible, just in case? He couldn t imagine living like that.
Even when fighting in the sandbox, he hadn't feared death. He had been so fucking arrogant and
confident in his skills that he had simply assumed he would survive. And he had against all odds.
But it wasn't that simple for Hadley. She had beaten the odds, time and time again. Even so, it
would never end. She would have her heart fixed and then what? Would she make it ten years?
Fifteen? What would it be like to always have an expiration date hanging over her head?
As they finished dinner and cleaned up the mess, he decided that for one night, at the very least,
he was going to make her forget. Standing side by side in the bathroom, they brushed their teeth and
exchanged flirtatious glances. When they were done dabbing at their mouths, he swept her up in his
arms and carried her into the bedroom. He was tempted to toss her down on that king size bed
caveman style, but he didn't want to dislodge the electrodes attached to her skin.
Realizing he was going to need help getting her undressed, he set her down next to the bed. She
seemed to understand what he was thinking. "If you'll help me lift my shirt, I'll hold down the wires.
"Okay." He pulled the front of the shirt as far away from her skin as possible and lifted it
carefully. He tossed it behind him and gazed at her naked breasts. They were big enough to fill his
hands and sensitive too if the shuddery sigh she gave at his thumb brushing a peak was any indication.
The urge to suckle her sweet tits was high, but he was concerned about the electrodes there. Maybe if
he was really careful&
"Oh!"
Yep. Really careful.
Smiling against her breast, he sucked her nipple into his mouth, pulling on the puckered peak
with hard tugs. She clutched at his shoulders and pressed against him. He paid attention to her other
breast by pinching and rolling her nipple between his fingertips. He was gentle at first and increased
the pressure by following her cues. His mouth danced back and forth between her breasts until she
was panting.
The scent of her arousal drifted toward his nose. So she liked that, did she? He had a couple of
things in mine he hoped she would like even more.
"Get on the bed," he ordered softly. When she was on her back, he rid himself of his prosthesis
for the night, letting it fall carelessly next to the bed. He crawled over her and nuzzled her neck. He
had to keep his chest off of hers because of the wires and stickers.
