Chapter 222
“Dominic, maybe save that for later.”
“Later?” He kissed my thigh, his lips hot against the fabric of my dress. “I do not want later. I want now. I want to feel your legs wrapped around my neck while I eat you out until you cum all over my face.”
“Dominic.”
“I want to fuck you so hard you forget your own name. I want to fill your pussy with my cum and watch it drip down your thighs.”
I pressed my hand over his mouth, my face burning. “Please, Dominic. We are almost at the hospital.”
He kissed my palm, his tongue tracing a slow line across my skin, and I pulled my hand away like I had been burned.
The car pulled into the hospital parking lot and the bodyguards carried Dominic inside while I ran ahead, finding a nurse, explaining the situation as quickly as I could. They took him from us, laying him on a gurney, and I watched them wheel him away, a knot of anxiety tightening in my chest.
“I need to speak to the doctor,” I said, grabbing the nurse’s arm. “He has been drugged with something. I do not know what it is but he is burning up and he is not acting like himself.”
The nurse nodded and disappeared through the swinging doors. I paced the waiting room, my arms crossed, my mind racing. The bodyguards stood by the entrance, their eyes scanning the room, still alert, still professional.
Twenty minutes passed. Then thirty. Then the doctor emerged, a middle-aged man with tired eyes and a calm demeanor.
“We have stabilized him,” he said. “Whatever he was given was a powerful aphrodisiac combined with a stimulant. It raised his body temperature dangerously high. We have him on fluids and sedatives now. He will be fine but he needs to rest for at least a day.”
I let out a breath I did not realize I had been holding. “Can I see him?”
“He is sleeping now. But you can sit with him if you like.”
I thanked the doctor and made my way to Dominic’s room. He was lying in the bed, an IV drip connected to his arm, his chest rising and falling in a slow steady rhythm. He looked peaceful, the tension gone from his face, his lips slightly parted. I pulled a chair to his bedside and sat down, taking his hand in mine.
I stayed there for an hour, maybe longer, just watching him breathe. Then remembered that he would need clothes to leave the hospital. His pants were soaked through and I was not about to let him walk out of here in hospital scrubs.
“I need to go buy him some clothes,” I told one of the bodyguards who was standing outside the door. “Stay with him. Do not let anyone in unless it is a doctor.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
“There is no need to thank me.”
“There is every need.” He held my hand against his chest, his heart beating steady and strong beneath my palm. “I was careless. I never expected my grandmother to stoop so low. I invited her into my home because she is family and I trusted her. I should have known better. After everything she said about you, everything she tried to do, I should have known she would not stop.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Two Can Play (Celeste and Dominic)
Agent Frost better teach Tasha how to protect herself if anything gets out of hand or if she’s ever in danger or forced again...
I need some good news for Tasha. Special Agent hear her out and don’t let her get back into that life. Do I hear a romance or someone Tasha can truly count on besides Scarlett??...
I hope Tasha is let off and helped by this detective and gets away from all this maybe a twist for this novel is she gets on the good side of things and gets away from that life completely even if she has to separate herself from Scarlett but it appears Tasha gets hurt by Scarlett’s and sparrow’s stupidity as she’s blamed for Scarlett’s decisions...
Her life is ruined and Scarlett’s been living a luxurious life through it all...
I officially hate everyone for hurting Tasha and allowing things to happen to her. This whole Sparrow and Scarlett situation is some BS....
It’s a bit stupid that as powerful and ruthless sparrow is he and Scarlett sure do a lousy job of protecting and having guard on Tasha. Like how did all of this happen to her if he was supposed to be protecting her based on the contract??...
More Chapters Please...
I thought it said 10 chapters a day??? It’s been like 2-3 days and no update after chapter 574. The release time is so inconsistent, I have started to just loose interest....
Just find Tasha and get her some help. How did she have sparrow’s men watching her if she really cared so much. Scarlett’s character is so suspect…...
Storyline is interesting it’s just so much sexual content I have to skip through just find out the main context of the story....
