Ten Minutes by Sapphire Knight

Ten minutes was all it took for me to know she was meant to be mine. The scared woman was running from something and seeing her in that hospital bed solidified my feelings. I wasn’t ever letting her go, I’d protect her, covet her, and claim her baby as mine.
Naomi would never have to be frightened again and if the demons chasing her ever showed up, she wouldn’t fight them alone. I’ve been known to have a soft spot for women in distress, and she’s no different. Only this time around, I’m willing to give her my property patch, not just my heart.
