Page 35 of Hate So Deep
Oh ho, he’s angry. Too bad because so am I.
“Yes,” I say, and he backs me into the vehicle before leaning over me until our chests brush.
“You want to walk on the wild side, baby girl?” he says against my lips. “Fine. I’ll give you the ride of your life.”
At his words, my core pulses and I suppress a moan, squeezing my thighs together.
Of course, his lips curl into a dirty smirk and he lifts me up before dropping me to the seat.
After stepping between my legs, he rasps, “Is this what you want? Dick? Maybe those Academy boys aren’t dirty enough for you?”
“Fuck off,” I whisper, shivering when he touches my pulse before running the tip of his finger down my neck and over the globe of my boob.
The nipple forms a tight peak at the caress and his eyes flare as he kneads my flesh.
My veins flood with liquid heat and I tip my head, exposing my neck. At the invitation, he licks the throbbing vein, before biting into my skin with a growl.
“Oh,” I moan, writhing against his erection.
“You like that,” he says, bucking into me as need bubbles along my nerve endings.
When I thrash beneath him, my skin heated through, he brings his mouth to mine and I open on a whimper before thrusting my tongue between his lips.
The sweet slide feels so fucking wicked that I moan, grabbing his hair and holding on desperately.
“Hm,” he hums, wrapping his hand around my core and massaging me through my jeans.
Chasing the pleasure racing through me wildly, I arch against him while he simultaneously pinches my nipple and I cry, “Ah!”
However, at the same time, he breaks away as the beam of twin headlights illuminates his golden hair while I glance up in a daze.
"Fuck," he mutters and my skin cools as he backs off and I jump from the seat, my heart pulsing while my body throbs with need.
I just want to be gone before this descends into madness.
No words are spoken as I put myself back together but when I turn to walk away, he grabs my arm and says, “Academy don’t belong here. Don’t come back.”
With my heart in my throat, I wrench away and after finding Caro we leave. All the while my mind swirls with the heavy beat of my heart.
Dirk Evans made me feel shit that I’ve never felt before. I want more. I want anything that will push me back from the ledge that I’m dangling over.
Chapter 14
NOW
Lauren
It’s Christmas Eve. The better part of me wants to stay in bed and ignore this fucking holiday and the people no doubt congregating down there as we speak.
The problem is, if I do, someone will come looking for me anyway. You’d think I could wallow in my misery just a little longer but no, I have to put my game face on, and I just don’t have it in me.
My parents chose to remove Buck from life support two days ago. He’s gone. I will never speak to him again and he’ll never grow old.
Logically, I know that our relationship was crap and it’s possible once I graduated and left, we wouldn’t speak regularly anyway but that doesn’t stop my heart from aching over what could have been.
Beyond that, I’m so fucking cold. I can’t feel my fingers when I run them over my lips, equally numb and with a shiver, I burrow beneath the blankets that do nothing to alleviate the bone-deep chill.
The day my parents made this momentous decision, I stood outside the hospital room where my brother laid and listened to them argue, once again about shit that didn’t matter.
