His Obsession(64)

“What about the gunshot?” she asked.

“Eugene pulled a gun on me. Sean and Lucas were able to restrain him. He got a bullet off, but he was a shit shot. It didn’t touch me.”

Talking with each other, they walked as the sun rose. “Mom is going to be clawing the walls when she watches the news.”

“I think Malcolm will keep her calm. He knows a lot more about this kind of stuff than you give him credit for,” Stephen said.

The press had dispersed outside his house by the time they walked home. He carried her inside and took her upstairs to the bedroom.

He left her for a few moments to unplug all the phones. Privacy was essential for what he had planned.

When he walked back upstairs she was undressed and in the bath water. She crooked her finger at him. He tore the clothes from his body and joined her in the water. She still wore the pendant and engagement ring.

He lifted her into his lap as they settled back together. “Will it always be like this with you?” she asked.

“No. I don’t think I’d have the strength to go through something like that every night.”

“When I heard the shot I thought you were dead. I was so scared.”

“No one is taking me away from you,” Stephen said. He cupped her face kissing her deeply. His cock stirred as she squirmed on his lap.

“I never want to lose you.”

“I’m not going anywhere. I love you too damn much.”

She settled her head against his chest as he stroked her hair. They were together, and that was all that mattered. The future could wait. He held her in his arms. The beast inside him was relaxed. The woman he loved was safe.

Stephen thought about Isabella and Rebecca. There were going to be problems with them. He would be there for all of his friends when they needed them. The chaos had only just begun. No matter what happened, Ursula was with him, and that was all that mattered.

She was his obsession and would remain so.
