Chapter Seven

This is War

Kaoru and Misao’s house

07:28 am

The front door closed with a muffled bang as Misao tried to keep the noise at a minimum. It was
almost nine o’clock in the morning, but considering the sour, prickly attitude of the man Kay had
brought home earlier that morning she was willing to make the extra effort it took not to wake the
slumbering couple. She was in no hurry to engage that sarcastic, chauvinistic beast in another
verbal battle of wits like they exchanged earlier that morning. True, she had to admit he was
indescribably gorgeous and when she first saw him standing in the front room of the shabby house
she had nearly tripped over her own feet in awe, but that was all before he had opened his mouth
and proved what a jerk he was. What Kay saw in him besides his good looks was beyond her, but
at least her friend was with ‘someone.’

It had been such a long time since Kaoru had dated anyone that Misao was starting to think the
girl had given up on men completely. She remained sad and withdrawn about relationships to the
point of avoiding happy couples on the sidewalk or at parties or anywhere for that matter. So if
this if this guy made her clock tick, Misao was willing to give his rude, Armani-clad ass a chance.
But if he broke her friend’s heart, he’d have one high-strung, flesh-eating weasel to deal with, and
he wasn’t going to enjoy it.

A gleam of wicked delight filled Misao’s clear blue-green eyes as she imagined the look on sharp,
narrow features if he ever did get a good dose of her temper, and she enjoyed what she saw.
Whether it was a true image or not, she liked the looks of surprise and apprehension her mind
twisted the handsome features into and a devious giggle bubbled over her full lips as she savored
the image. “You might think you’ve got the upper hand, rich boy, but don’t you count on it. I’m
watching you, and mark my words. Weasels are sneaky and they always get you when you aren’t
looking, so look out... I got my eyes on you and I didn’t get nick-named a ‘weasel’ for nothing.”

Misao swung her purse up onto her shoulder and clutched the collar of her coat closer around her
throat as a chilly breeze turned her nose bright red. She stepped down off the rickety porch with
care and then turned to walk up the sidewalk in the direction of the corner strip-mall where she
was a cashier at the 99cent store. It wasn’t the best job she could have gotten, but it was close to
home and that meant she didn’t have to spend money on a cab or the bus because she could walk.
So, that fact in itself, made it a better job than most.

OOOOOOOoooooooOOOOOOoooooo

Kaoru’s Room

09:37 am

The urge to go to the bathroom was almost more than she could stand, but Kaoru didn’t want to
move an inch. She was in a place she had never been before and she was almost willing to wet the
bed just so she could stay. Almost. Hawke’s arms were wrapped around her in a snug cocoon of
warmth; one was under her neck and curving across the front of her body to cup her breast, and
the other hanging across her hip with his hand pressed against the flat of her stomach. His thumb
was hooked lazily into the waistband of her pink panties and the thoughts of what else that hand
could be doing to her made her squirm with heightened awareness of the soft bulge nestled
against her rear. And as desire tied little knots in the pit of her stomach, the urge to urinate
became a physical pain.

‘I really have to go.’ She thought frantically as she tried to figure out a way to slip out of his
embrace without waking him up. He was so exhausted after the events of the day before besides
helping her out at the Diner. Whatever he went through before coming to her had really taken a
toll on him. She saw it in his face when they went to bed and once they got settled, he fell asleep
so fast it was blatant. She really wanted him to rest, but her dilemma was close to becoming an
emergency. Kaoru was running out of options and time. So with a light touch and extreme care,
she pulled Hawke’s thumb out of her panties and lifted his arm off her waist laying it along his
own hip. And then she took great pains to peal his gripping hand off her breast using caution not
to drag it or bump it on anything until she was at last able to stretch his arm out along her pillow.
Heaving a silent sigh of relief, she thanked the bedroom Goddess that he was only spooned up
behind her and tangled up with her legs. If that had been the case, she knew she really would have
been screwed.

Kaoru lifted the edge of the blankets and eased out of the warm haven she and Hawke’s body
heat created underneath, and grabbed her robe off the bottom of the bed as cold prickles popped
out all over her body. Shrugging into it she moved to the door and lifted the latch with a stealth
that would have made any burglar proud. As she skittered on tip-toe across the cold floor in the
hallway toward the much needed bathroom, she did not see the lazy smile or the mischief filled icy
blue eyes that followed her every step of the way.

Hawke had been awake for over an hour already, and had made his covert trip to the frightening
place these two women dared call a bathroom. Then he crawled back into the warm, over soft
bed, made deliberate moves to secure the beautiful woman to him, and waited for her to wake.
Actually, he had to admit to himself that she was more ingenious than he originally gave her credit
for.

‘I knew I should have wrapped her legs up.’ He thought as a small chuckle shook his shoulders.
‘She got out of that way too easy. Way too easy. Oh well, life is supposed to be full of surprises...
and have I got one for you, Ragdoll.’ His mouth curled into a wicked smile for a moment, but
then relaxed into a mask of feigned sleep as the toilet flush indicated she would be returning in a
few seconds. ‘Sometimes it’s fun being me.’

Once more Kaoru tip-toed across the hallway and slipped quiet as she could back though the door
of her room. As she eased the latch back in place, she cast a cautious look over her shoulder to
make sure she hadn’t disturbed the sleeping man in her bed. A sigh of relief passed over her lips
when she saw the even rise and fall of his chest as well as the fact that neither of his arms seemed
to have moved an inch from where she left them. Shrugging out of her robe, Kaoru tossed it over
the foot of the bed and then tried to get back under the covers without waking Hawke.

Just as she finished snuggling back against the warmth of his chest and pulling the blankets up
around her shoulders and chin, a strong hand reached over her hip and yanked her lower body
against something that was no longer soft. Kaoru gasped in surprise and immediate sexual
awareness as Hawke leaned into her hair and spoke.

“Sleep well?” He asked in a low, husky voice. “I hope so ‘cause you’re going to need your
energy where I’m taking you this morning.” And his hand dipped down from her hip and slipped
under the elastic of her panties to rub against her lower belly. He smiled in satisfaction when he
heard the tiny moan spill from her mouth and felt the delicate shiver that coursed through her
body.

“Wh... where are we going, Hawke?” She asked as her hand slid over the top of his urging it to
explore further downward as she raised her left knee and parted her thighs.

“Heaven, Baby...” Came his hoarse reply as he let her lead him to her quivering treasure where he
open the exquisite flesh with two fingers and began stroking the moistness he found there.
“Would you like to go to Heaven, Kay? Would you like to go to Heaven with me?”

“Y-yes... I would... Oooooo God....” She arched back against his chest as he slid a long finger
inside of her with a deft precision that amazed and delighted her at the same time. The long slow
strokes he started to make sent little electric shocks up her spine and she shuddered pushing his
hand harder against her. “How do you d-do that?” Her voice stuttered as she turned her face over
toward him, her blue eyes wide with pooling liquid head.

“Do what, Ragdoll?” Was his innocent reply as he drove two fingers deep inside of her and
pushed upward causing her to cry out in pleasure/pain and grind down filling his hand with the
warmth of her first climax. “This? Is this what you’re talking about?” Hawke adjusted his position
and let Kay fall over onto her back. As she did, he immediately shoved his knee between her
thighs and pushed it up against his hand. This drove his fingers even deeper inside of her and her
back arched bringing her hips up off the mattress as she whimpered and gripped his hand.

“Tell me!” He demanded as he eased up on the assault of her nether regions and raised her head
up to meet the icy hunger in his pale eyes. “Tell me, Kay! Is that what you’re talking about? Or is
it something else? Because if you don’t like it, I’ll stop.”

“Oh God, no... don’t stop, please don’t stop. That’s what I was talking about... you know it
was.” Huge cobalt eyes gazed urgently into the fierceness of his face and her free arm lifted to
curl around his neck. “Kiss me,” She pleaded in a ragged, passion filled voice as she tried in vain
to tug him down to her. “Hawke? Please? Kiss me... I-I need you to.” ‘I want to feel that
feeling... when you kiss me, it’s so... please, kiss me...please.’

“You need?” His hand began to massage her flesh with a gentle touch that was almost as
maddening as the other and Kaoru whimpered trying to pull him down to her. “I know what you
need, Ragdoll.” He growled pulling his hand out of her panties and sweeping the confinement of
the blankets away from their over heating bodies. “And I’m the only one who’s ever going to give
it to you.” Dropping her head back onto the pillow, he maneuvered himself down and over her
trembling body, and then proceeded to remove her cum saturated panties. “Don’t ever wear
underwear to bed again, Kay, or I swear, I’ll rip them all to shreds. You hear me?”

Icy blue shards of aroused anger raked her flushed face, and Kaoru caught her breath as he
dropped down on his hands his face looming over hers like a hungry wolf. “I-I won’t.” She
managed to choke out and watched those magnificent eyes devour her from head to toe. ‘Breath
Kay... you gotta try and breath... Oh my God... he looks like he’s going to eat me, literally... I
can’t breath... shit!’

“You drive me insane, woman.” The sound of his voice was almost harsh as it tore its way free
from the confinement of his throat. “I think I’m the one who is going to make you beg and tell me
‘you want me’ just to prove to you I can... but instead, I find myself wanting to tell you how
fucking beautiful you are, and how much I want to taste and touch every single inch of you. I
want to make you scream and pull me close; so close I can’t tell which one of us is which.”

“Hawke...” Kaoru raised both hands to cup his face caressing his taut flesh. “I do want you,
Baby. I want you more than I’ve ever wanted anything.. You’re the only one who’s ever made me
feel like this... you’re the only one who’s ever made me... makes me...” Her face turned bright red
as she struggled to finish the sentence.

“I’m the only one who has ever made you cum. Is that what you’re trying to say, Kay?”

“Yes.” She answered in a tiny embarrassed voice. “I used to hate sex, you know. I just did it
because my boyfriends wanted, but I didn’t like it. It was just something to do and get over with
until... until now.”

“And now... you like it?” The barest hint of a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.

“It’s more than that, Hawke.” Her hands reached behind his neck and tangled in the long black
hair gently urging him down to her. At last he relented and lowered his weight onto her body. “I
crave it,” She whispered into his searching icy gaze. “I crave you, my beautiful man. You’re all I
think about.” ‘You’re a ghost that haunts even my dreams... you’re everywhere.’

“You crave me?” A look filled with wonderment crossed his sharp features as one of his hands
brushed over her cheek. “You really want me that much?” ‘No one... ever said that before.’

“Yes, I really want you that much.” ‘Haven’t you figured that out yet?”

“Now?” ‘You better say ‘now’ or we are going to have a real problem...’

“Always.” ‘God... am I turning into a...’

“Kay?” He bent down to her and burrowed into her throat bringing a new cascade of shivers
through her body.

“Wh-what?” She answered a little breathless as her hands splayed out across the broadness of his
back and she rubbed her cheek against the curve of his shoulder.

“I’m going to kiss to your tits, you beautiful woman. And then I’m going to show you what it
means to belong to ‘The Black Hawke’. Are you ready for that, Kay? Are you ready to belong to
me?” There was just a trace of a plea in his voice as his mouth brushed along her sensitive skin.

“Yes, I am ready for that.” She kissed his skin and then tasted it with the tip of her tongue. “It’s
probably the only thing I’ve ever been ready for in my entire life, but then it’s also the only thing
I’ve every really wanted this much too.”

He raised up and looked down into the honesty of her eyes and let the small smile touch his
mouth. “You know, you really don’t play fair at all, wench.”

“Who ever said anything about playing fair, pretty-boy?” Blue eyes danced with playful mischief
and she pulled herself up and stole a kiss. “You know what they say; all’s fair...”

“Is that what ‘they’ say?” The warmth of a chuckle rumbled in his chest and he leaned down to
her and rubbed his nose against hers. “Well, if that’s what ‘they’ say...” In the split of an instant,
both of his hands were beneath her shoulder blades and he was lifting her body up to him. Her
large, pink-tipped breasts jutted out toward his face, and Hawke greedily took as much of one
into his open mouth as he could. It was warm and smooth beneath his tongue, all but the hardened
nub of her nipple which he laved roughly until it grew to twice its normal size. Satisfied with one,
he released it and turned his attention to the other, offering that nipple the same treatment.

Kaoru was lost in mindless bliss. The feel of Hawke’s mouth and tongue on her breasts was a
devastating pleasure to her senses and once more, she found herself not wanting to disturb him
from what he was doing. As far as she was concerned, he could continue suckling her forever if
he wanted to. She would not mind at all. In fact, so complete was her ecstasy that she was not
even aware that her hands were tangled deep within the thick mane of his hair and holding him
with tender acceptance against her body. All she understood at that moment in time was she never
felt so perfect and whole before then.

He could feel it. The utter approval, the pleasure, the rising desire... the burgeoning hunger that
would take only a tiny push to bring roaring out of hibernation. ‘She’s mine.’ He thought with
astonishment and humility. ‘She’s mine in ways no woman ever has been... she’s accepted me for
what I am, no judgements or changes required... just for myself. Oh Kay...’

Tender arms laid her down on the bed as his knees made room for his hips between her thighs,
and then, with the help of one guiding hand, he pushed slow and gentle inside of her. A long, low
moan spilled from Kay’s lips as her neck arched and her nails dug into his back. Hawke shuddered
with hunger as he urged forward until he felt himself hit bottom.

‘All the way.’ Was his stunned thought as he seated himself and then held still letting her body
get used to the feel and size of him. ‘I still can’t believe I fit in all the way and it doesn’t hurt
her.’ As it was, Kay’s legs lifted and wrapped around his waist, and then they crossed at the ankle
and locked him into their embrace. Hawke looked down at her face and caught the most glorious
expression upon it. Her eyes were closed, her cheeks were flushed, and her mouth was open
forming a perfect ‘O’. She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his life.

“Kay...” He breathed heavily as he bent down to her and nuzzled her throat. She responded by
turning her face into his cheek and tracing the tip of her tongue across the raspy skin. Hawke
could feel the edges of his restraint and control fraying and he was close to giving in to his hunger
for her. But he wanted to savor this feeling of her wrapped around him for as long as he could, so
he slammed an iron fist down on top of his rising need forcing it back. ‘Not yet... not yet.’

“Kiss me...” The hoarse, ragged plea fell upon his ears and groaning he turned to meet her
searching mouth. Her small, pink tongue darted out and touched his and he sampled a small taste.
Mint. She had stopped long enough to give her teeth a quick brush before coming back to bed. He
smiled. ‘Minx...’

“Do you think you always get what you want, Ragdoll?” He asked, brushing his lips across hers.

“Only when it’s what you want too.” Came her saucy reply as she shifted beneath him causing
him to grit his teeth on a hissing breath of pleasure..

Then the sound of his laughter filled the room as he moved to plant his knees firmly in the spongy,
softness of the mattress. “I guess I can’t argue with logic like that, now can I?”

“No, you can’t. Now shut-up, quit messing around, and kiss me before I take matters into my
own hands and show you how it’s supposed to be done. Got me?” Her eyes were laughing at him,
but for some reason he had a feeling she was deathly serious.

“Don’t piss on my ball game, Ragdoll.” He whispered with a teasing smile, and then gave in and
gave her what she wanted. But as their lips met, parted, and molded together Hawke started to
wonder why he had put the kiss off for so long. She was the greatest kisser he ever had the
opportunity to share spit with, and whenever they got this close all he could think of was how
long could they breath through their noses and the fact that her mouth fit against his like it was
made to. His tongue slipped past the barrier of her teeth and she moaned, pushing her hips up
against his begging for something else, and by that time he was beyond refusing her anything she
wanted. So resting his weight on his elbows and cupping her face in his hands, Hawke gave Kay
what she was asking him for.

It was a forgone conclusion when his hips started gyrating against hers that things would get out
of hand. So far, every time they had sex that was what happened, and as he moved in and out of
the wetness of her body, their senses when spiraling out of control and the kiss they were sharing
turned into a wild thing. Lips, tongues, and teeth seemed to be everywhere at once. Kissing,
sucking, nipping, and licking at the skin on necks, chins, shoulders, anything that was within reach
and easily accessible. Whimpering moans and tiny growls intermixed with the frantic movements
and hands started to tug on hair and dig into muscle as the frenzy increased. They were fighting
each other for the release both of them desperately needed and had found with only this particular
partner. Sex with each other was becoming more of a necessity than an privilege, and they both
knew it.

Hawke slipped his hands beneath Kaoru’s hips and cupped her buttocks squeezing them tightly as
he pulled her up into his downward thrusts. The sobbing cries of her approaching orgasm filled
the room and his head driving him onward as he quickened the pace. Pounding into her with bone
jarring force, he threw his head back and allowed his heart and soul to flow into her body. Below
him Kaoru screamed and as her body convulsed with the power of her climax, he felt her nails dig
into the flesh of his back.

Hawke and Kay were falling into the abyss again and it was glorious.

OOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooo

Afterglow... He always thought it was the strangest word for the feelings one experienced after
sex, and today it was definitely not the word of choice. Aftershock might be a better description
of how he was feeling since the wild coming together he and Kay had shared. His muscles felt like
rubber, or maybe wet spaghetti noodles. Whichever it was Hawke didn’t think he would be
moving from his current position on her bed for quite awhile.

‘And I thought I was exhausted last night.’ He thought wryly as he ran absent fingers through his
lovers long, black hair. Kaoru was laying across Hawke’s chest sound asleep, her head tucked
beneath his chin while her arm curled possessively around his neck. Her body lay half on top of his
and one of her legs was bent over his lower body trapping it beneath her. Not that he minded, he
was quite comfortable where he was.

Amusement danced across his features as he remembered their conversation in his car and his
following vow to himself that he would make her beg before he gave her anything. ‘You’ve really
got the constitution of an ox there, old boy. She walked all over you and you gave her everything
she wanted without even putting up a good fight. Wimp!’ Hawke laughed at himself as he
admitted that wasn’t exactly the way it happened, but it made him feel better to think it was.

“What’s so funny?” Kaoru’s lazy voice drifted up to him and he dropped his hand to caress the
soft skin of her back. A muffled sigh of contentment slipped out of her mouth and she snuggled
closer to his side.

“Oh, I was just lamenting over what a push-over I am when it comes to you.” He bent his free
arm behind his head and propped himself up. “I just can’t seem to say ‘no’ to you over anything.”

“Really?” She sounded amused and her hand strayed from its spot behind his neck to start
rubbing lazy circles on his chest. “I’ve never thought of you as a push-over before. Hmmmm, that
brings a whole new picture to mind.”

“Ummm, do I detect a note of sarcasm in your voice, Ragdoll?” He tugged playfully on a long
strand of her hair and she giggled burrowing her nose into his skin.

“Me?” She tried to sound innocent but didn’t do a very good job and he grunted. “Would I do
something like that to ‘YOU’?”

“Yes, I believe you would, wench.” And with a sudden burst of energy, Hawke flipped Kaoru
over onto her back and started to tickle her. “Now tell me, what is this ‘new picture’ you conjured
up in your mind, or I’m going to make you wet the bed.”

“Oh God... st-stop!” She howled as she tried to wriggle away from him but found that he had her
completely trapped. “Haaawwke...” The plaintive wail brought a wicked grin to his face and he
relented stopping the torture so she could breath.

“I’ll stop, but you have to tell me what you were thinking.”

“I wasn’t thinking anything... I swear. I was just teasing you.” The half-panicked look in her eyes
was delicious and exhilarating to him as he loomed threateningly over her.

“I’ll tickle you...”

“Ok, ok, ok...I’ll tell you, but you have to promise you won’t get mad or do anything to me.”
Huge blue pools of terror looked imploringly up at his face as Kaoru tried to scrunch her body up
into a little ball. “Ok?”

“Hmmmm... tell me and then we’ll negotiate.” ‘I wonder if you know how funny you look,
Ragdoll, or how good it feels to play around and be free with someone? Do you know, pretty
girl? Do you know what you’re doing to me? Probably not.’

“No way, that’s not fa....”

“If you don’t tell me now, I’ll tickle you and all negotiations are off. Period.”

“Ewwwwwww, you’re a rat.” Her lips pursed in frustration and she offered him a look that
would have shriveled a lessor man. ‘He’s teasing me... The Ice Man is actually teasing me... I
think I like it.’

“Yes I am. One of my lessor known qualities, but one of the better ones.” He watched her smile
despite her pique and he bent down to push his nose into hers. “Now... TELL ME, DAMMIT!”

“Alright already. Geez... keep your pants on.” At the strange look he gave her Kaoru bit her lip
and shrugged. “I was just trying to envision you as a push-over, and well... it came out kinda
strange.”

“Strange? What do you mean by ‘Strange’?” He raised an eyebrow at her as his face took on a
suspicious look.

“Well... you looked sort of like a dweeb. You know... oily hair, saggy-baggy pants, too big
t-shirt, a bad slouch and shoes that ought to belong Shaqueal O’neal. You know... a dweeb.” Her
voice was almost perky and if the description hadn’t struck him so funny he probably would have
held true to his threat and tickled her until she wet the bed. But, as it was, Hawke dissolved into
senseless laughter leaving Kay with her mouth hanging open in total disbelief. She didn’t think he
had it in him to do more than chuckle or grunt once in awhile. This outburst took her completely
by surprise.

She wasn’t the only one who would be surprised. Anyone who knew him, whether it be as the
street Captain, Hawke or as Aoshi Shinomori the businessman, would have been stunned into
silent disbelief if they could see him at that moment. No one had ever seen this man laugh. Not
even his Pack.

“That’s not a dweeb,” He said when he could breath again. “That’s a fucking reject from the
southside moron factory. Shit! Kay, that’s mean, Baby.” Flopping onto his back, Hawke pulled
her into his arms and started nibbling along her collarbones while she sprawled over his chest in a
fit of giggles. “If you want, I’ll take you to the Mall and show you a ‘real’ dweeb. That fucking
place is full of them 24/7.”

She couldn’t believe it. NOW he was joking with her. He was still laughing and he was joking
with her. “Why would I want to go to the stupid Mall?” She asked him with a big grin on her
face. “It’s full of rich idiots who spend money on crap like jelly shoes, toe rings, and pita pets.”

“Pita pets?” The quizzical look on his face made her laugh as she dropped a kiss on his nose.
“What in the hell is a ‘Pita Pet’?”

“You know? The little ceramic animal thingy’s that you put the seeds on and water and then they
grow stuff... you know? The tofu sheep and the grassy buffalo things?”

“Ahhh, the light has gone on.” Hawke rolled his eyes giving Kaoru his opinion of the little seed
growing ceramic wonders. “Must have one, yes?”

“Hawke?” She pulled back until she was setting a straddle his waist. “You are kidding, aren’t
you? One of those things? In YOUR house? Ewwwwwww!”

“Oh, come on. Don’t you think it would give the livingroom that chic looks it’s been missing?”
The bland look he had pasted on his face almost had Kaoru convinced he was serious until she
noticed the wicked glint in his pale eyes.

“You’re awful.” She shoved her way off his chest and jumped onto the floor. “That’s all there is
to it, you’re just plain awful.”

“Why, thank-you....” The rest of his smart-ass reply was cut off short as she threw his shirt
squarely in his face. He heard a devilish squeak of laughter followed the sound of the door latch.
The shirt was whisked off his face and he burst into laughter again as he caught her panicked
attempt trying to unlatch the door while opening it at the same time.

“The door has to be shut in order for the latch to work properly, Sweetheart, or didn’t you learn
that in ‘doors 101'?”

Kaoru froze in her position at the door while her brain processed his sarcastic yet logical remark,
and then she looked at her hands, the latch, and the position of the door and burst into hysterical
laughter. The way it was with the door pulled tight against the latch, it was not ever going to open
no matter how hard she tried. She was a fugitive caught in her own dirty joke with no where to
run. Turning to the grinning man laying on his side in her bed, she raised her arms out to her sides
and shrugged in defeat. “I guess I’m screwed...” She said around her giggles as she met the
twinkling ice blue gaze. “I throw myself on the mercy of the court.”

“Oh ho, ho ho!” He chimed in glee as he bounded off the bed and stalked over to her. “That
could be extraordinarily dangerous for you, pretty girl. This Court has been know to hand out
some pretty stiff sentences in its time.”

“I’m sure.” Her eyes were so full of laughter and mischief that it was hard for her to keep a
straight face. “Beheaded anyone lately?”

“Not for at least a month.” He reached out and grasped her chin tilting her head this way and that
as he examined something about her while Kay’s whole body shivered with silent laughter.
“Hmmmm, too scrawny for the workcamps,” He announced, “but you might do very well as a
harem girl.”

“A harem girl!” She screeched and turned to give him a shove but found herself caught in his
embrace instead. Her laughter bubbled over and she burrowed into his shoulder. “I can’t believe
you said that... a harem girl. Geez, that’s funny.”

“Glad you liked it.” He replied with a chuckle and he nudged her forehead bringing her face up
toward his. “But you got to admit, you’d look fantastic in the clothes.” Her eyes flashed with
feminine outrage and she opened her mouth to give him a piece of her mind, but Hawke decided
there were better things for Kay to be doing with her mouth that smarting off to him.

With a deft precision that amazed her, he slipped his tongue between her parted lips and took
control of her mouth effectively silencing whatever she was going to say. In a matter of seconds
her body melted into his, and her arms reached around his back and then up to grip his shoulders
as she pulled herself closer to him. Hawke decided he would have to remember this tactic in the
future whenever she started telling ‘what for’. It appeared to work very well. Very well indeed.
Was it fair? No, but wasn’t she the one who said, ‘All’s fair...’

Hawke swept Kay off her feet and carried her back the bed where he lay her back down on the
mattress. He followed, covering her with his weight and then finding the sweet joy of her mouth
again. The day was still young and this war was far from over. After all, didn’t the rules of
engagement require that every attack be followed by retaliation? Well, he was just retaliating.
