Better to Know
The roar of a motorcycle causes me to look back over my shoulder with a frown. But when I see Kai on that big piece of machinery, I can't decide if I should be mad that he came after I told him not to or thrilled because he didn't listen and came anyway.
Instead of doing anything, I turn my eyes forward and keep walking until he's next to me, slowly moving his bike in time with my steps, staring at me while not speaking. We do that for a little while and when he still says nothing, I sigh.
"What are you doing here, Kai?"
"Walking you home."
My stupid, romantic heart beats a little faster but I try to keep stoney. "I told you that I was fine."
"You did."
"And that I didn't need you to inconvenience yourself to give me a ride."
"I'm not."
I slow down and glance at him. "You're not?"
He shakes his head. "I'm not inconveniencing myself nor am I giving you a ride, though I'd really like to."
"Why?"
Because I do not understand at all why he keeps wasting his time on me, or this magnetic pull, this energy that sizzles between us every time he's near. I don't deserve someone like Kai, don't have time for a relationship. I just… can't.
"Let me take you home."
I shake my head and wrap my arms around my waist.
"Please, Josephine."
I stop dead in my tracks, his words rolling down my spine and landing smack dab between my thighs. His voice is like instant sex-inducing honey, and when he says my full name? Hell, I'd love to hop on top of him and ride him off into the sunset.
Kai chuckles and my eyes go wide.
Fuck, I hope I didn't say that out loud.
I'd just die if I did and Kai now knew I want to screw his brains out.
He growls from somewhere low in his throat, dismounts from his bike and stalks over to me in two long strides. Kai palms the back of my head, fingers threading through my hair where he tugs lightly, tipping my head back and exposing my throat.
His other hand pulls me closer, our bodies pressed tight with no space between and I squeak out my surprise when I can feel his cock hard and heavy against my stomach. Kai runs his nose along my throat, inhaling sharp and deep until his mouth is right next to my ear.
"You should not think such things, my beloved."
My eyes flutter closed, my body relaxes as his lips follow the same path, peppering my skin with open mouth kisses, his hot tongue flicking out to caress some of my most erogenous spots.
Totally acting on instinct, I pull him closer and fist his shirt, encouraging him to continue. Kai's fingers ghost down my back and as soon as he cups my ass cheek, he squeezes hard and nips at the skin where my shoulder meets my neck.
I moan, fucking moan in the middle of the sidewalk and shamelessly roll my hips against him, twisting his shirt in my hand so hard I hear a stitch pop. Kai hisses and pulls my hair back a little harder then crushes his mouth to mine.
Sparks dance across my skin and white light clouds my vision but I don't care. I don't care about anything except the way Kai is kissing me.
Kissing me like he owns me.
Needs me.
Wants me.
