Wrong Ride, Right Lover novel Chapter 185

Henry returned to his seat and said, “It’s late. Sleep.”

“Okay,” Monique replied.

After some time, a soft voice sounded in the dark. “Do you want to sleep on the bed?”

Monique was not sure if the man had fallen asleep on the chair. She felt incredibly guilty as he had not gotten a restful sleep since her hospital admission.

When he said he needed her to fall asleep, a part of her found it touching--sexual innuendos aside.

It was not like they have never shared a bed before.

Henry Moore opened his eyes. “What?”

Monique gave him a mean look. The man was pretending to have not heard her. She turned over in bed to face away from him. “Nothing. Go to sleep.”

Henry clucked his tongue at the stubborn woman. Would it kill her to just repeat her words?

Wordlessly, he climbed into the hospital bed and settled down behind the woman. “What is this? If you wanted me in your bed, all you had to do is ask. Don’t be shy now.”

She bit her lip and swore in her mind. This b*stard was driving her mad.

Monique grumbled, “You wanted to sleep, right? Just sleep.”

Monique was regretting her decision. ‘Why didn’t I just mind my own business?

‘What was I expecting walking into the tiger’s den?’
