Silent Lynx: Heart of Detroit Series Read online

  ***

  She was inside the club again. The lights were low, but she could make out the large figure that approached her, and she smiled seeing the tall, dark man coming up to her. His sidekick was gone, and he was all by himself. His eyes told her he wanted her and she was sending all the vibes of her lust back to him. His thick, strong arms gathered her close, and they began to sway slowly to the music. She could feel his lips pressing against her neck, face, and finally her lips.

  Tanae groaned wantonly wanting so much more of him - Wanting it to feel so real.Suddenly, the lights in the club suddenly became brighter, and she blinked several times to see him in front of her, but she wasn’t in the club anymore. She was in her white room prison lying in bed, but the tall, dark stranger was there leaning over her looking concern.

  Pleasantly smiling, liking this dream even better, she wrapped her arms around his neck. “You feel so real? Make me feel good again.” She pressed her lips against his reveling in the sweet, strong taste of him feeling her pulse quicken and her body call out for more. His tongue dipped into her mouth to savor her, and she shuddered in this new passion this dream had taken her too. He felt so real, so good, and so wonderful.

  He began to relax, and his hands roamed over her body answering her wanton cry for his touch, as his hands slipped into her pants to stroke her sensitive peak. She opened her legs wider for him and rocked her hips upwards wanting so much more.

  She moaned her release feeling her body shiver in desire all over. “Please don’t let me wake up,” she whispered in his ear.

  He moved away looking down at her in confusion.

  “I liked you as soon as I saw you in the club with your friend.”

  His non-response didn’t bother her.

  “I’ve dreamed about you ever since I saw you,” she admitted.

  He frowned and took her palm. “No dream,” he signed. When she just stared at him completely baffled, he signed the same thing again.

  She looked around the room, and suddenly, she could smell... Flustering, she asked, “Lynx?”

  He nodded and signed the same thing again. Tanae felt nauseous all over and sprinted from the bed almost collapsing on the floor, but she made it to the bathroom in time to empty out the contents of her stomach.

  She could feel him staring at her, and the heat in his eyes radiated through her body. Just knowing what she had just done, how she had just felt, what she had just said, made her nauseous all over again, but only dry heaves could come from her stomach since she hadn’t eaten in a while.

  Slowly turning to face him, she looked up in dark maddening eyes. Crossing his arms over his thick, brawny chest, he leaned in the doorway of the bathroom with a very crossed expression on his face.

  “H-Have I been out long?” she asked extending her palm out cautiously, but not taking her eyes off his face not believing that Lynx was the same man who had been in the club that night.

  Lynx looked reluctant to say anything. “Yes,” he signed. “Eat.” He pointed to a tray on the table in her room.

  She had a feeling if she didn’t eat now, she would never eat again, but she had a lot of questions for him, yet it didn’t look as if he felt like talking.

  He started to leave out the room.

  “Wait!” Tanae called coming up to him. He stopped abruptly and turned around. She almost collided with him and looked up noticing how large he was. That pissed off expression was still on his face. “I-I wanted to apologize for what I called you last time. I was angry… and frustrated...” There was a long moment of silence before he started to walk away again.

  “Wait!” she called out again moving closer to him.

  He gave her an impatient glare and Tanae remembered Jimmie’s words at how uncomfortable Lynx felt around people he couldn’t communicate easily with.

  “I’m feeling a little depressed, Lynx and I was wondering if…well if you just didn’t leave me alone.” Tears filled her eyes at the thought of being by herself again for a long period.

  “Must go,” he signed.

  She went to the door to block his exit. “Alright,” she resigned grudgingly. “I know I’m not a very good person to be around for you, but at least let me know how long I have to be here.”

  Lynx only shrugged still looking as if he would rather be somewhere else.

  Tanae knew she was pushing her luck with this man, but all she could think about was the kiss they just shared not believing that there wasn’t a part of this man who didn’t just enjoy what had happened. “If my father doesn’t look as if he will give into your demands soon, what will happen to me, now that I know your face?”

  He looked long and hard at her, then signed, “Don’t worry.”

  “Will you kill me?”

  “What makes you think I’m not already killing you?”

  It took her a moment to digest this information and then she looked over at the food. The distraction was long enough for him to move her out of his way and get out the room slamming the door behind him.

  She went over to the food and smelled it. There didn’t seem anything wrong with it. Maybe he was just messing with her head?
