Page 16 of Pucking Snowed In with the Enemy

“So, what you’re saying is your visit isn’t because you wanted to see me,” I said and chuckled as she rolled her eyes. It was refreshing not to have a girl throwing themself at me. “Who ratted me out this time? I’ll be sure to kill them,” I teased, half meaning it.

“Your doctor. He said he thought you had class. Didn’t take much investigating to find you after that.”

“Hmm, I guess I better not kill him.” Savannah pushed away from the wall and walked beside me through the halls. “You’re looking better.”

“I’m feeling better. Sorry about the whole throwing up in your office thing.”

“I’ve had worse meetings,” I said, and she smiled wide but quickly wiped it away like she couldn’t be caught having fun.

The school was relatively quiet, but some students were still hanging around, and a few waved or yelled out a hello.

“You’re popular,” Savannah said and glared at a couple of girls who flirted with me as they walked past.

“Jealous?”

“You can only be jealous over something you want,” she said, and I glanced down at her, but she kept her head turned away from me. An urge to prove her wrong had me moving before my brain could come up with a good excuse not to do it. Dropping my bag with a thud, Savannah jumped as I wrapped my arm around her waist and pushed her up against the wall, my mouth dropping to hers.

She was tense for a few seconds, but I was persistent and kissed her with an unbridled need to devour her. As soon as she caved, I invaded her mouth and made sure she was panting before I broke off the kiss.

“You want me,” I whispered in her ear. “I can already picture how wet you are. Next time, I get to taste you, Kisa.” I moved away before I took her up against the wall and got myself expelled, not that I couldn’t buy my way back in, but still, not the point.

“There won’t be a next time,” Savannah said, but her flushed cheeks called her a liar.

“We’ll see. How did you get here?”

She grabbed my arm, and I looked at her hand. “Do you remember what happened the last time you touched me?”

Her lips thinned, and I could see the mixed fire burning in her eyes. She was turned on. The lust was bright in her depths, but so was hatred, and that combination was fucking hot. It made for the best sex. Wisely, she removed her hand.

“You promised me the interview.”

I snatched my large bag off the floor. “Yes, but I didn’t promise where, did I? I have work I need to do, so if you want to interview me, then keep up.” Her mouth dropped open. “I’m a busy man, so if you want the information you’re after, then it will be on my terms or not at all.”

“Has anyone ever told you that you’re a first-rate asshole,” she asked but followed me.

“Daily. It’s part of my charm,” I said, enjoying the banter far more than I should and the look in her eyes even more. “Where did you park?”

“I got a ride.”

I ground my teeth and looked around. Shit, shit, shit. I didn’t want her in my vehicle, or more accurately, I wanted to lay her out in the back and fuck her. There was too much temptation with her near me.

“Where are you going? I’ll meet you there,” she said as if reading my mind, and that pissed me off more for some fucked up reason.

“You’ll ride with me,” I said.

“Thanks, but I’d rather not.” Reaching the truck, I tossed my hockey bag in the bed and turned to look at the very stubborn and way too alluring Savannah.

“What did I just say to you? I’m starting to think you’re hard of hearing.” I would’ve sworn she snarled at me. My cock thickened, and through sheer willpower, I kept my hands to myself. I had already caved once, which wasn’t like me. I didn’t need to make it worse.

“Fine, I’ll ride with you, but I should warn you that I have safety measures in place just in case my body disappears like my brother’s.”

“Well, then I suggest you stay away from boats,” I said. I didn’t expect the slap or the sting that followed in my cheek, but even I could admit I deserved that one.

“You’re right, that was rude. Sorry,” I said and stepped in close to Savannah, forcing her to look up. It was obvious she didn’t know anything about what her brother was really like or what he was into. “I will let the slap slide because I understand why you did it. But this is your last warning. You touch me again when it’s not during sex or without my permission, and you will not like what I do next. Don’t think your shiny badge, gun, and arrogance will keep you safe. I’m a man with very few morals and a lot of pent-up anger.”

“Are you threatening a federal agent, Mr. Mikhailov?”

“Technically, you’re on leave, which makes you an agent of nothing, but even if you were officially investigating me, you don’t scare me. I didn’t kill your brother, although I know you think I did, so I have nothing to hide.” I could feel the rage radiating off her. She was almost vibrating with it. “As for threatening you….” I lifted my shoulder and let it drop. “Take it however you like, but personally, I call it a warning. You don’t see me slapping you, do you, or trying to knee you? Maybe I should make a call to your boss and let him know where his rogue agent is and what you’ve tried to do to me so far. I’m sure he’d be thrilled to know how terribly you are acting.” I could see in her eyes that she wanted to hit me again. “You’d be out of a job so fast your head would spin.”
