Staring down at me, she has so much emotion behind her eyes. Emotion, I wish I could read, but I can’t. I begin to panic, worried that he did something to her.

“You should know we broke up. You should also know that I’m certifiably insane, and I’m going to fuck up your world, and then you’re going to destroy mine.”

She broke up with him?

I grab her waist on either side and pull her onto my lap. “You’re mine, McKinley. Fucking mine. You’re not going to fuck up my world, and I’m not going to destroy yours.”

I rub my thumb over her bottom lip and whisper, “Mine.”

CHAPTER THIRTEEN

MCKINLEY

“Do you understand?” He growls, causing my pussy to act like it has a heartbeat of its own.

“Yes, Rock God,” I say sarcastically.

“Filthy girl, I’ll make you see fucking stars, but it won’t be you praising me. I’ll praise you, and make you realize how goddamn perfect you are.”

“Jagger,” I whisper.

He reaches his hand into my hair and pulls me down to him. “Tonight you stay with me.”

Moving quickly, he lays me down on the couch, as he wedges himself between my thighs and kisses me. It’s not soft but with urgency. Like it’s been painful to not have his lips on mine. He grinds his cock against my pussy as he pushes his tongue into my mouth with a groan. Jagger holds himself up, with one hand on the couch beside my head and the other on my face, holding my head in place as he continues to grind against me.

“Jesus Christ,” he groans loudly.

“Do you have any idea how fucking badly I want to be inside you, filthy girl?”

I shake my head no, but add, “Show me. Fuck me, Jagger. I need you.”

He closes his eyes tight, like he’s trying to restrain himself, but I don’t understand why.

Standing up, he says, “I can’t. Not like this.”

I sit up and ask, “Is this about Erik?”

Turning to me with a clenched jaw, he says, “Don’t talk about him when I have a hard dick. No, it’s not about him. It’s about you.”

JAGGER

I watch her face fall, and instantly feel like a giant asshole. Walking over to her, I kneel in front of her. “McKinley, not like that. You know I want you and I will have you, but not here. Not the first time. This is where I’d fuck a groupie, and you’re more than that. I want to do this right.”

She pulls on the bottom of her pink shirt as she stares down. My lost girl. He broke her, and I can see it clearly for the first time. I knew he treated her like shit, but I don’t think I saw how much he fucked her up, until right now. I’m terrified that she’s going to think it really was a game, and now that she gave in, I’m done.

I take her hands in mine. “Baby, look at me.”

Her lashes flutter as she lifts her gaze to mine. “I told you, I’m really fucked up. You don’t deserve this, Jagger. You should find someone else. I’ll only bring you down.”

I know she believes the words coming out of her sexy mouth, but she’s fucking wrong.

“I don’t care. We will work through this shit together, McKinley. There are no other women. I don’t even know they exist anymore. I’m so fucking obsessed with you, the thought of anyone else makes me sick. Only you. Since the day I met you, all I’ve thought about is being inside you. Nothing has changed.”

She nods slowly, like she understands, but I’m not sure she does. How the fuck can I explain to her how fucking consumed I am by her, without sending her running in the opposite direction?

I lift her hand to my lips and kiss her soft skin.

“Let’s get you fed first. Are you ready for dinner, baby?”
