“And?” That attitude of hers made my dick throb.
“You keep pushing buttons, that’s exactly what you’re going to get,” I warned. “An unhinged man who needs to put his hands and mouth and dick all over you. By any means necessary. If I were you, I would be careful,” I rasped. “A man so fuckingobsessed and fucking lost in his need for you, the line between right and wrong blurs.”
“Careful sounds boring.” She licked her lips. “Show me how unhinged you can get, big guy,” she taunted, and fuck me, her fearlessness around me was like a goddamn drug.

“Baby,” Jeremy rasped, his voice scratchy and slightly smoky while his nose glided up and down the line of my own. “You called me a bully.” The reminder delivered in his sharp tone sent a delicious thrill down my spine.
Bully.
My bully.
I had no idea why the hell that turned me on like it did. I knew deep down, Jeremy was a good guy, probably one of the best with his teddy bear, golden retriever vibes.
“And?” I wanted to tip him over the edge. Loved how he pinned me against the door after he freed himself of my panties wrapped around his wrist in the blink of an eye.
“You keep pushing buttons, that’s exactly what you’re going to get.” His warning only fueled my need. And if that wasn’t enough, he kept talking, every word making me drip with need. “An unhinged man who needs to put his hands and mouth and dick all over you. By any means necessary. If I were you, I would be careful,” he rasped. “A man so fucking obsessed and fucking lost in his need for you, the line between right and wrong blurs.” I shivered. I had to be sick in the head. I liked everything he wassaying. No. Ilovedit. Oh god, was I falling in love with Jeremy Fletcher? “So be careful, cielo.”
“Careful sounds boring.” I said, my voice was shockingly steady. I knew what I was doing. “Show me how unhinged you can get, big guy.”
Taunting him.
Pushing him to the edge to show me a side of him I somehow knew was only for me.
“Show me how much you want me, Jeremy,” I pleaded, my mouth a breath from his.
Before I could blink, he picked me up; my legs wrapped around his middle instinctively. His massive chest pressed against mine and he caged me tighter against the wooden door.
“You don’t know what you’re doing, cielo.”
“I don’t?” I smirked. “I think I do.” I kissed his cheek, and something feral, almost primal took over. I licked him with the flat of my tongue, from his chin to just under his eye. “I want you,” I moaned, loving how he tasted.
“Baby,” he pleaded, sounding almost like he was in pain. “I won’t be able to hold back.”
“I don’t need you to.”
“Fuck.”
“I can take you,” I promised, almost positive I was chewing off way more than I could chew. “I want you. The real you. Give me that,” I whined, knowing I sounded like a spoiled brat. But damn if the hardness pressing against the inside of my thigh didn’t seem to grow harder.
“I take you, that’s it.” Jeremy swallowed, intensity brewing in his gaze. I wasn’t sure if it was a threat or a promise, but either way, I wanted him. “No returns. No take-backs, Teresa. You’ll be stuck with me.”
Stuck with him.I pulled back and stared at the most beautiful blue eyes I’d seen in my whole life, and somethingstruck me. They weren’t just a set of beautiful blue eyes. They were the eyes I knew I’d more than happily stare into for the rest of my life.
It hit me like a wall of bricks, but it didn’t scare me.
It should have, though.
We were at a point in our lives where everything was so uncertain. Neither of us knew where our lives would go. He had a year of school left, and I had two. If we did this, really took a chance on one another like he was threatening, we’d have to build everything together. Scouts and drafts were definitely in his future.Me?That ground was a little shakier. It could go either way. It depended if a women’s soccer team looked at me and made me a good enough offer before I had to choose law school over sports.
But as complicated and blurry as the future might have felt, I knew without a doubt where my heart wanted to go.
What my body and soul needed.
His gaze searched mine while I lovingly stroked his face, loving the slight stubble on his jaw, one I knew would feel incredible between my thighs.
“Teresa,” he growled, impatience obviously setting in.
