CHAPTER 27

Even before the doors of the elevator trapped her inside that tiny box with Paxton, her heart was drumming madly in her throat. Then the cage jerked, throwing her against his strong body. She let out a shriek before they shot upward. Her heart spiked to rocket speed, and her wide eyes lifted pleadingly to his.

“If you say so,” she mumbled, while her heart was still beating extremely fast. “I’m fine… I’m fine… I’m perfectly fine…”

Rhiannon took a deep breath and kept repeating her little mantra.

“I’m fine… I’m fine… I’m…”

“Let’s make sure, why don’t we?”
