Page 11 of Her Noble Protector
The smirk fell from my lips at the thought of being alone tonight.
“Wait. Is it okay if I chill down here with you until I get sleepy? I really don’t want to be alone, but I promise I’ll behave.”
Noble ran a hand down his face and scratched at his facial hair. I waited patiently for his response. His eyes searched mine for a long moment before he nodded. “Sure. But you got to get your hot pussy off my lap.”
I tossed my head back with a soulful laugh. “Okay. I can do that.”

Dria:
Girl! What the hell happened to you? I was about to call the cops.
Gee:
And I was about to pull up on you and make sure that man ain’t killed you.
Me:
I’m good. Noble made sure I got home safely. Someone attacked me in the bathroom, and I got a little shook up. He did what he had to do to keep me safe, though. I just wanted to get out of there ASAP.
Gee:
