Chapter 4

Eleanor woke up feeling warm, as if a gentle weight was covering her body. Groggily she opened her eyes and tried to move. She couldn't. Frowning she looked down at her chest and her eyes settled upon someone else. That someone else was Mort and he was lying on her body with his hands firmly wrapped around her waist, effectively pinning her in place. Her eyes widened at her current predicament and she sighed. Her eyes moved around the room but she sadly realized that the door was closed. With a frown she looked down at the sleeping author. What time was it? And why was he sleeping there…right on her? There was no clock in the room and she tentatively looked at his wrist for a watch. She had to lift his shirt to see the hour and when she did so he stirred.

One after midnight.

"Great." She whispered. She noticed that he had untied her and he had covered them with a thin blanket. She had to move out from under him soon or else a very embarrassing accident would happen. The question was how was she going to the bathroom without waking him up? She moved around under him but he only nuzzled his face in her neck and tightened his hold on her.

I can't believe this happening…Why is life so cruel to me? She thought miserably.

She looked down at his face once again and she realized that he was…nice when he slept. Well, as nice a man that had kidnapped her could look anyway. Startled by her own thoughts she shook her head and rubbed her eyes. Taking a deep breath she chose. She lightly patted his arm and he stirred. She patted him again and he groaned as he slowly opened his eyes. His eyes at first focused on her abdomen but then he looked up into her eyes.

"Ellie…" he mumbled and she nodded.

"You fell asleep on me." She stated and he blinked.

"Ah…yes. I did. I apologize for crushing you." He said as he reluctantly rolled away from her.

"Something wrong?" he asked as he ran a hand through his hair.

Except from you keeping me here against my will? Just a small one. She thought.

"Yes. I have to use the bathroom." She said instead and he nodded.

"Well go on then." He said and she looked at him before she stood up. She headed for the bathroom of her room without failing to notice that he made no move to leave her bed.

When she was done she returned to the bedroom only to find him gone from the bed. She frowned and closed the bathroom door, her eyes scanning the room.

"Um…?"

"Alright, Ellie?" he called from somewhere behind her and she jumped, almost falling on her face.

"God! Please don't do that." She said and he grinned as he stepped towards her, a book in his hands.

"Sorry." He said as he placed the book on the nightstand and grabbed the hem of his shirt. Eleanor's eyes widened as he removed it and placed it on a chair.
"What?" she asked dumbly and he looked at her.

"I am making myself comfortable." He said as he sat on the bed and slid to the other side, invitingly patting the space next to him.

"You're staying here?" she asked and he nodded as he eyed her expectantly.

"I was thinking of keeping you company. Brought my book." He said as he continued to pat the bed.

"But why?"

"I rather like watching you sleep. Oh and I am sorry for taking so long with my meeting earlier. I didn't know it would take that long." He said with an apologetic smile.

"Oh? Well, I suppose you had a nice time while I sat here tied to the bed. I almost exploded! I had to go to the bathroom." She said as she decided to sit on the bed. Mort looked at her with a grin.

"I am sorry. It won't happen again, sweetheart." He said as he rolled to his side and placed an arm over her body, his palm flat against the mattress. Eleanor's eyes widened as he leaned closer to her, his breath on her cheek as he nuzzled his face against her skin.

"You sleep like an angel." He whispered in her ear and she stilled as his hand slid down her arm to her stomach.

"I thought I snored." She said stupidly and he chuckled.

"Who told you that?"

"Um…my aunt."

"Well, your aunt is wrong, Ellie." He whispered as his lips found her earlobe and drew it into his mouth, causing her to inhale sharply in both fear and surprise. Her eyes drifted closed but her hand did try to push him away by taking hold of his bare arm.

"I am tired." She stated as his lips trailed down her neck and his fingers moved in circles on her stomach. Her fingers flexed on his elbow and he moved back to look at her, his eyes heavy with something she couldn't comprehend. His gaze stayed on her face before his brown eyes settled on her parted lips. His hand slid up her body and cupped her cheek before he leaned down to crash his lips against hers. Eleanor's eyes widened and she gasped but she could not find the strength to push him away. So, she simply lay under him as he deepened the kiss. When she did not kiss him back he moved away and looked at her somewhat irritated but upon noticing her trembles his eyes softened and he smiled softly down at her.

"You sleep then." He said and with a last kiss on her forehead he moved away and picked up his book. Eleanor blinked and she looked at him for a few moments before she closed her eyes and turned on her side.

What the hell is wrong with me? Did I enjoy that? She thought as she lay perfectly still, listening as he turned the pages of his book.

End of chapter 4
