I don’t want to push him away, but I know I have to. He tips my head up, bringing my eyes to his and his lips inches from mine. His warm breath fans my skin, eliciting a shiver. My eyes drop to his lips. I draw my lower lip between my teeth. I want to taste him again, but I have to fight the intensity to touch him.
The look on his face twists into something much darker than I’ve ever seen before. His hands fist around my wrists and before I know it, they’re pinned behind me. My heart beats so hard, it’s practically pounding out of my chest. He shifts my ass onto the edge of the marble counter and positions his hips between my legs. The thickness of his erection pulses against my core. Reed’s every movement weakens my resolve, pushing me dangerously close to caving again. I’m wet and aching for him. I know he can sense it. He’s always affected me this way and no matter how hard I want to deny it. He knows what he’s doing to me. What he’s always been able to do to me.
“My club is about to go to war with some dangerous people and your husband knows how to get to them. Do you know anything about that Angel?”
The sensation of his hard body pressing against me is too much. I try to free myself from his hold, but he’s so strong I can’t move. The more I fight, the harder he presses against me, grinding his hard cock along my aching pussy. “Leave it alone Reed. It’s best if you just walk away.”
His lips ghost over the curve of my neck, leaving goosebumps on my skin. He hovers near my ear. “You know what he’s involved in, don’t you?”
“I don’t know, but what I do know is its dangerous to screw with him,” I choke on my words. My body is aching for more of him and I’m losing will power fast. Tears gather in my eyes. I’ve missed him so much. Having him touch me like this stirs up those old feelings. So much has changed since I last saw him, but he’s still looking at me the same way he always did. Like he could swallow me whole and still hunger for me. That’s not true anymore, though. If it was, he wouldn’t have stayed gone all these years.
He lets go of my wrists and swipes his warm hand across my cheek, collecting my tears with his callused thumb. “I can protect you. Walk out of here with me right now and I’ll keep you safe.”
The warmth of his body pressed against mine both terrifies and excites me. It’s been a long time since I felt anything and it’s worth the price I’ll pay later to feel this way again. Even if it is just for a moment.
“I can’t do that. You and your friends need to go. Now before you start something you can’t finish.”
“I’ll finish it Angel, mark my words and when I do, you’re coming home with me where you belong.”
Reed pulls away, leaving me with a merciless ache between my legs and questions in my head. I want to draw him back to me but all I can do is whisper his name,“Reed.”
