Chapter 16

"What is it Adele? What are you hiding? I will help you" he says his voice a bare whisper as he steps towards me closing the distance between us and kisses my forehead. He waits for my answer for few minute then sensing that I won't be replying he shakes his head a little and says "Thank you for what you did today"

"You shouldn't thank me for it. Anyone would have done the same thing"

"Hmmm… but fighting a rogue, a rogue that strong alone? Is something 'not everyone will do'" he says gently.

"Ah ha… fighting with rogues is my specialty, don't give me credit more than I deserve" I comment looking up into his eyes which are filled with love, admiration and pride.

"Let's go we have work to do with that rogue" I say as I pull away from him and immediately start missing the heat.

"We!? I will go and enquire, that's my job"
