Page 60 of Hot Summer Nights

I start to walk across the parking lot to my black pickup truck. I always park it in the back of the lot and I head that way when I hear a shuffling sound. I look up towards the noise and see a spot of pink down at the end of the alley across the street. I squint my eyes, trying to make out the shapes in the dim lighting. I take a couple of steps closer and that’s when I see what’s going on.

There’s a hooded guy, prowling down the alley towards a pretty girl in a neon pink dress. The girl is shaking her head no as she tries to back away from him. He reaches out towards her and I’m running before I even realize that I gave my body the command. I sprint down the sidewalk towards them, keeping the girl's pretty form in my sight the entire time.

I see one of her heels catch on the pavement and her arms shoot out, bracing for a fall. I’m there before she can hit the cold cement. I wrap my arms around her, tugging her upright and staring over her shoulder into the eyes of the man who was trying to hurt her. I don’t want to let go of the girl but I need to take care of this piece of shit.

I place the tiny girl behind me, protecting her with my larger form and making sure that she’s out of sight from the guy who was trying to hurt her. I take a step towards her attacker and smile slightly when I see the guy's eyes widen as he takes a step back. He looks up and meets my eyes, trying to hide his fear with a sneer.

“You should pick on someone your own size,” I say, crossing my arms over my chest.

The guy's eyes dart down to my arms and I see him gulp.

“Stay out of this man,” he says, trying to sound tough.

This will be too easy.

I laugh slightly as I ball my hand into a fist, pulling my arm back and slamming it into his face. My knuckles crash into his mouth and I see his lip split open and start bleeding as his hood falls back. The guy lands on his ass with a thud, wiping his mouth off on his sleeve as he stares up at me with shocked eyes.

I see Finn and Brooks both come running to the end of the alley as the would be attacker scampers to his feet and darts back down the sidewalk past them with only one backward glance at us. I give them a nod and they turn, letting them know that I’m all good as we watch the guy dart around the corner. I wipe the blood on my hand off on my jeans and turn back to the girl behind me.

I freeze, sucking in a breath as I get a good look at the little princess standing in front of me. Her pale blonde hair is twisted up on top of her head with just a few loose strands falling down around her thin shoulders. She looks pale and I’m sure she’s still scared from being attacked. She has long lashes framing her large green eyes and she’s staring up at me, unblinking. Her eyes are perfection and I think I fall in love right then and there. I could drown in those green eyes.

My eyes scan down the rest of her small body and I have to wipe my mouth to make sure that I’m not drooling. She has the body of a goddess. I frown momentarily at her outfit, scowling down at the bright pink shoes that are obviously cutting into her feet, judging by the angry med marks I can see. She’s tiny, only coming up to my chest with long legs that lead up to rounded hips. I lick my lips, picturing gripping those hips while I plow into her from behind.

I bite back a groan as I will my erection to go down. My eyes trail over the rest of her, taking in the tiny scrap of a dress that swishes around her upper thighs as she shifts on her feet. I want to tug it down so that no one else can see what belongs to me but as my eyes scan higher, I realize that might be impossible.

The small bodice of her dress is barely able to contain my Princess’s tits. They’re spilling over the top and I realize that she’s not wearing a bra so if I were to just tug on the thin straps holding the dress up, she would be topless before me. It’s obvious that her tits would be more than a handful, even for my large hands.

I wonder what her nipples look like. Are they pale pink or a darker shade of red. What do they taste like? How will they feel when I suck them into my mouth?

I try my hardest to shake those thoughts from my head as I take a step closer to her, smelling her floral scent. She’s absolutely delectable. She’s lucky that guy only seemed to want her backpack from her.

I look back into her green eyes and anger and panic grips my throat. I can’t believe this girl. I mean who wanders around in dark alleys by themselves at night? She obviously needs someone to protect her and that someone is going to be me. She belongs with me. I can feel it. I can’t believe that I could have lost her tonight before I ever even found her. I’ll take better care of her. With that settled, I grab her arm, twirling her around and marching her to my truck.

“What were you thinking? Wandering around at night in dark alleys? Don’t you have any self-preservation instincts? Or just common sense?”

My Princess seems shocked that I’m speaking to her this way and I’m not trying to be mean. I just need her to understand that she needs to take care of herself. Or she did. From now on, I will be the one looking out for her.

“Excuse me?” She screeches, her gorgeous green eyes flashing at me as she tries to jerk her arm out of my grip.

“What were you thinking? Do you know how stupid it is for you to be walking down dark alleys by yourself late at night?”

“Thanks for the assist back there, but I’m a big girl and I can take care of myself,” she says, trying to tug her arm away from me again.

I lead her back out onto the main strip and towards my truck. She’s dragging her feet but I must have a hundred and fifty pounds on her and she’s no match for me. I lead her across the street as she tells me about how she can take care of herself. She reminds me of a tiny kitten who thinks that she’s a lion. I smile to myself as I drag her behind me to my truck.

The fact that she’s not fighting me more must mean that she’s not afraid of me. This only proves to me further that this girl needs someone to look after her. I mean, sure I just punched some guy and defended her but that doesn’t mean that I’m a good guy. Any guy who saw her body would be tempted to do more than just walk her back to her place. Luckily for her, I am a good guy and I would never take a woman against her will. I never want to hurt this girl and I would never do anything that she doesn’t want but there is one thing that I will never be able to do for her and that’s let her go.

I tuck her further into my side as I lead her over to the passenger side of my truck. I open the door for her and that’s when she spins around to face me.

“Listen! I’m fine. We’re all fine. Now, if you would just let me go, it’s been a long day and I really just want to head home.”

“Sorry, Princess. It’s late at night and there’s no way that I’m going to let you wander around by yourself. I’m not letting you out of my sight until I know that you’re safe. Not get your sweet ass in the truck.”

She glares at me, crossing her arms over her chest and pushing her tits up higher. I swallow back a moan as I look away, locking my eyes with hers. She searches my face for a minute before she lets out a growl and climbs into the truck. I smile to myself as I close the door after her and round the hood. I slide into the driver’s seat and start the truck, turning in my seat towards her. Her eyes flash at me once more and I smile.

“God, you have the most gorgeous eyes,” I murmur and I watch those eyes widen in response. “I’m Kit by the way. Kit King.”

She gives me a snarky side-eye look and I can see the minute that she sees the Kings Gym sign behind me. Her eyes widen slightly before they narrow back on me. She runs them over me quickly and I smile when I see her tongue dart out to lick her lips. She likes what she sees. I grin wider at her as she looks up at me and realizes that I caught her checking me out.
