The monsters were quiet. All this shit I was feeling, and they made no sound. I took a hesitant step toward him. When he held his hand out, I stared at it for a fraction before placing mine in his.
As soon as he had me, he tugged me down on his lap so I straddled him. He grabbed my face and pressed his lips to mine. My hands danced over his chest while I got lost in his kiss.
The world around us fell silent except for the sound of a bird chirping, the wind rustling through the sparse trees, and my heart racing. I could hear the blood thumping through me as his kiss alone brought me higher.
My body relaxed against him, and for the first time in seven years, I let myself feel.
Everything.
Chapter Seventeen
Cash
I didn’t know what the fuck I was doing. But the taste of her lips had me wanting more. I let my hands roam over her body. She was so fucking small, but she had curves in all the right places.
Her round ass filled my palms and as I squeezed, she released a moan that went straight to my dick. I pulled her hips against my aching cock, and she whimpered.
Every sound she made told me she wanted me as much as I wanted her. But when I reached for the snap on her jeans, she pulled away and stopped me.
“Wait.”
“I’m sorry,” I panted, trying to get my breathing under control. I reminded myself she was young. Then I searched her face. “Are you a—”
“A virgin?” she asked and then threw her head back and laughed. I didn’t like the sound of that fucking laugh. I growled and pulled her close.
“Tell me you’re a fucking virgin.”
“Cash—”
“I don’t care if you fucking lie. Just tell me no one else has ever fucking touched you. I don’t want to leave you to go hunt those fuckers down and kill them. King would be pissed.”
“Are you a virgin?” she asked. She tilted her head to the side as she waited for me to answer.
“Fuck, yes.” Then I smiled as she giggled.
“Sure you are.” She hopped up and walked toward her bike.
“Where the fuck are you going?”
“I have to get back,” she said as she held out her hand.
“Baby, there is no way you’re pulling me up off the ground.”
I saw her shiver when I called her baby, and I had to adjust my dick before I had permanent fucking zipper marks on it.
“I need my key.”
“Come to the clubhouse with me.”
“I can’t,” she said, shaking her head.
Hefting myself off the ground, I stalked toward her. “Why not?”
“Because I can’t. Not yet.”
“So, you are here for Amber.” I ran a hand through my hair, and Rose crossed her arms over her chest and scowled at me.
“Why are you so concerned about Amber? Are you fucking her? Afraid she might leave and take her pussy with her? Just give me my goddamn key.”
