SEALs Of Honor: Mason Part 22

TESLA STARED AT Mason, the several comments she'd barely caught now blasting back into her memory. They were talking about him and how he felt about her. She didn't know what to say. Everyone stared at her. Everyone waited for her.

For what?

To tell him she was happy to be kept. h.e.l.l no, she wasn't. But she was happy to know he wanted to keep her.

It would be nicer if he wasn't glaring at her like he'd rather have his teeth pulled out one by one rather than have such a discussion. Then again, she had to admit she wasn't the most open about such things either.

And she hadn't expected to have this discussion out in the open and surrounded as they were.

Swede gave her a half shake, reminding her she was still in his arms. "Well?"

She ignored his question, her mind consumed with Mason's outburst. When he shook her again, she had to wonder why he was still holding her? Right. Drugs. She wasn't able to stand. Or was she?

With Swede's help, she slowly lowered herself to her feet and rested there for a moment. Happy to feel her feet hold her stable, but still hanging onto Swede, she took the few steps to Mason's side and said, "You might want to keep me, but you've done a p.i.s.s poor job of doing so up to now."

The others cracked up.

Mason stared her, guilt written all over his face. "I know. I'm so d.a.m.n sorry."

"That's okay. You have the rest of our lives to make up for it."

And she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. Like, she laid it on him. When she released him and he wavered slightly, still grasping for balance, she turned to the others. "Just so we know who's going to be keeping who."

The group rushed forward, and laughing.

Mason reached through the crowd and said in a dark silky voice, "If you're going to kiss me, you'd better do it right."

And he tugged her gently back into his arms and kissed her long, hard and sinfully deep while the others cheered. The waves of noise rolled over her head, but she was blind to everything but Mason. His love and joy and heat, and the response coiling inside of her.

G.o.d she loved this man.

She felt him start and realized she'd whispered that against his lips.

"Love you back, Tesla," he murmured and crushed his lips to hers.

When he lifted his head, a smile of male satisfaction surfing his lips, he looked down at her sagging in his arms and whispered, "We can keep this up for a long time, or...we can go back to your place, after all you need to rest and heal, and we can take this to the next level in private."

She smiled up at him. "Now that's the best idea I've heard all day."

Death had touched anthropologist Jade Hansen in Haiti once before, costing her an unborn child and perhaps her very sanity.

A year later, determined to face her own issues, she returns to Haiti with a mortuary team to recover the bodies of an American family from a ma.s.s grave. Visiting his brother after the quake, independent contractor Dane Carter puts his life on hold to help the sleepy town of Jacmel rebuild. But he finds it hard to like his brother's pregnant wife or her family. He wants to go home, until he meets Jade and realizes what's missing in his own life. When the mortuary team begins work, it's as if malevolence has been released from the earth. Instead of laying her ghosts to rest, Jade finds herself confronting death and terror again.

And the man who unexpectedly awakens her heart is right in the middle of it all.
