Hannah raised her eyes to find face to face with Bryson’s chest-his broad, naked chest. He was looking down at her, the water dripping from his hair and chin.
The next thing that Hannah noticed was his plastered arm. She froze as the memories flooded her mind.
Someone had tried to kidnap her in the corridor yesterday. They might have succeeded, too, had Bryson not appeared. That was the last thing she remembered.
Seeing that she was still a little disoriented, Bryson tightened his arms around her waist and pulled her flush against him.
“What? Do you want to do it here?”
Sure enough, Hannah startled back to her senses.
“You’re injured,” she said, pushing him back.
“Can’t you be serious for once?”
Bryson made a hissing sound and shot her a smirk.
“You know that I’m injured, why would you use so much force on me?”
Then, before Hannah could retort, he walked past her in his still half-naked glory.
Bryson cut an ideal figure, with his broad shoulders that tapered down to a narrow waist. Anyone would be enticed to stare at his every move.
He padded over to the sofa and put on a black shirt, fastening only the two buttons in the middle before turning around.
“You should bring Brayden with you in the next few days,” he told Hannah.
“Or if you’re not comfortable with him, I’ll have the company arrange for bodyguards to escort you.”

“No, thanks.” Hannah’s refusal was firm and immediate. She wasn’t used to Bryson fussing over her this much.
“I already know what to do the next time I meet those bastards.”
Bryson sat down and crossed his legs.
“Is that so? Do you mind telling me why you weren’t able to use your methods this time around?”
Hannah blinked once before averting her eyes.
“Well… It was an accident.”
Her words were followed by a pregnant silence.
Ever since learning about what had happened in the past, she found that she wasn’t quite sure how to act around Bryson, let alone treat him, They had been cold to each other for a considerable amount of time.
In fact, Hannah was no longer sure why she had wanted to break up with him.
