Stay in the house.&#8221; &#8220;Cesar.&#8221; But he&#8217;s already turning away, dismissing me, putting his back to me like I&#8217;m not even there. Fine. I leave him to his workout and wander back upstairs, but I&#8217;m exhausted. I&#8217;ve barely slept since the spanking\u2014too wound up, too confused, too busy replaying every moment and then touching myself until I came hard enough to forget my own name.<\/p>\n<p>I curl up on the couch with a blanket, telling myself I&#8217;ll just rest my eyes for a minute. I&#8217;m asleep before I finish the thought. *** The nightmare comes fast. I&#8217;m back in my apartment in New York. It&#8217;s dark, and someone is in the hallway. I can hear footsteps, slow and deliberate, getting closer. I try to run but my legs won&#8217;t move. Try to scream but no sound comes out.<\/p>\n<p>The door opens. He&#8217;s standing there. I can&#8217;t see his face, but I know it&#8217;s him, the one who&#8217;s been sending the messages, the one who wants to watch me die. He&#8217;s smiling. He has a knife. You thought you could hide, Diamond. You thought Daddy&#8217;s money could save you. I try to fight. I remember what Cesar taught me\u2014elbow, stomp, run\u2014but my body won&#8217;t cooperate.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m frozen. Helpless. He&#8217;s getting closer, and the knife is at my throat, and I can&#8217;t\u2014 I jerk awake with a scream. The living room is dim, still daylight, barely an hour since I lay down. My heart is slamming against my ribs, and I&#8217;m shaking so hard I can barely breathe. &#8220;Cesar?&#8221; No answer. He must still be downstairs. I throw off the blanket and stumble toward his room, bare feet cold on the hardwood. The adjoining door is closed. I press my ear against it.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing. Try the handle, but it\u2019s locked from his side. But I can hear something. Water running. The shower. He must have just come up from the gym. I shouldn&#8217;t. I know I shouldn&#8217;t. But my hands are still shaking and I can still feel the phantom knife at my throat and I need him.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>This is a work of fiction.

Cesar About Ariel London OceanofPDF.com C HER FORBIDDEN BODYGUARD ESAR I&#8217;ve done things that would make most men flinch. Eight years in prison. A body count I don&#8217;t discuss. A past written in ink and blood across my skin. Now I&#8217;m trying to go legitimate, and Charles Sterling is my ticket out of the shadows.<\/p>\n<p>One job. Protect his daughter from the stalker who&#8217;s been sending death threats. Keep her safe at their Big Sur estate until the danger passes. Then I meet Diamond Sterling. Blonde. Spoiled. A bratty princess who&#8217;s never heard the word &#8220;no.&#8221; She pushes every button I have, testing me like she tests everyone.<\/p>\n<p>Walking around in next to nothing. Running that smart mouth. Begging to be put in her place. I should keep my hands off her. I should remember who signs my checks. I should not be thinking about bending her over my knee and teaching her what happens to girls who don&#8217;t follow the rules. But Diamond doesn&#8217;t want safe.<\/p>\n<p>She wants me\u2014the ex-con, the killer, the man her father hired to protect her. And when the threat gets real, when someone comes for what&#8217;s mine&#8230; I&#8217;ll remind everyone why I&#8217;m the most dangerous thing in her life. DIAMOND I didn&#8217;t ask for a bodyguard. I didn&#8217;t ask to be exiled to the middle of nowhere because some psycho on the internet can&#8217;t take a hint.<\/p>\n<p>And I definitely didn&#8217;t ask for him. Cesar Vega. Tall, tattooed, and looking at me like I&#8217;m a problem to be managed. He doesn&#8217;t care about my last name. Doesn&#8217;t want my money. Doesn&#8217;t react when I try to make him uncomfortable. He&#8217;s the first man who&#8217;s ever told me no. I should hate him for it. Instead, I can&#8217;t stop thinking about his hands. The way his voice drops when I push too far.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>This is a short excerpt from the opening of &ldquo;&rdquo; by Unknown, quoted for review and introduction purposes.
