“No. You don’t get to say it and think everything is better. I won’t forgive you.”
“I didn’t expect you to.” He moved closer to me, pressing his firm body to the front of mine, and then glided a palm around my throat, tilting it up and squeezing. “However, it doesn’t change a few facts about us.”
My heartbeat jumped, loving the press of his fingers against my skin.
How I missed his touch. My nipples immediately responded, and arousal pooled between my legs.
“There is no us,” I countered, and his grip tightened, but I wasn’t letting him off the hook. “You made sure of it.”
“I was wrong. There is no ending us.”
“Too late to change your mind. You’ve done the damage. I don’t want you anymore. Get lost.”
His palm moved from my throat into my hair, fisting it into a brutal hold. The intensity of his dark green gaze ignited an ache I’d barely contained over the last weeks.
“You relinquished your hold over me. I’m free to do what I please, with whomever I please. You mean nothing to me anymore.”
“I’ll make a liar out of you the second I slide my hands down your pants.”
“Physically wanting you is vastly different than mentally wanting you.”
“Since I’m already halfway to the finish line, I think I’ll stay the course.” He jerked my head back.
“What the hell does that mean?”
“This.” He covered my mouth with his.
CHAPTER FIVE
Damon
With an insatiable drive to gorge on her, I feasted on her lips. She haunted me for the last few weeks, and I had to have her.
When I awoke this morning, the only thing on my mind was to clear the monthly obligation with the old man. Perhaps it was the way my conversation ended with the asshole. Still, somehow, I found myself driving toward this part of the city and near Sophia’s studio.
It wasn’t until a text from Oliana Dominik’s security telling me to take the fire escape to Sophia’s loft that I even considered a visit. I guessed I owed the mob queen a favor for her need to play matchmaker.
I hadn’t a clue what I’d expected coming here, but losing myself in Sophia’s arms was the last thing on my radar.
“Fuck,” I groaned as Sophia scored her teeth across my lower lip and then bit down, leaving me no doubt she’d drawn blood.
Pulling back, I saw the fire lit in her dark, onyx eyes. “It’s not going to be that easy for you. You have to work for it.”
“Is that right?” I narrowed my gaze and licked at the corner of my mouth, confirming her vicious attack. “Is that the game we’re playing?”
“This isn’t a game, Damon.”
“Yes, it is. You just don’t like the rules.”
She tried to shove me off her, but it only trapped her arm between our bodies. “An orgasm isn’t worth this. I’d rather go to bed.”
“Has it ever been just one orgasm? By my count, I’ve given you two or three on the lower end each time.”
She glowered at me. “Wrong. You’ve fucked me and left me with none. Did you conveniently forget those times?”
“I did make up for it so that I would put those infractions in the void column.”
“No on my account. You’re in the hole with me. And it will take you a long time to dig your way out of this grave.”
