That gets my attention. I look at Logan, but he refuses to make eye contact.
“Whatever. Let’s go, babe.” He turns and tries to escort me out, but I thrust his hand off me and storm out of the room. “Other way,” he growls, and I whip around, changing routes. I have no idea where I’m going. Darn it! He finally leads us to a private exit where his Challenger is parked.
I climb into his car but fumble with the seatbelt and can’t latch it with my wounded hand. “Here, let me—”
“I can buckle myself,” I snap. He’s lucky he’s quick because he just avoided me bashing his head in the door in the process.
I angle myself toward the window and ignore him the entire ride.
He pulls up to his place, and I hop out of the car and stomp up his driveway. He’s right behind me, unlocking his front door. “Do you need me to look at your hand?”
“Look at this.” I raise my middle finger, and a thrill runs through me. I’ve never actually flipped anyone off.
“Real mature, Addy.”
I spin around, facing him. “Oh, and you are? Lying to me? Using me? I gave up my chances at a real break in my career. A story that would have changed my life. For what? And you wanna know the worst of it? I actually cared about you. I wanted so much for you to find a better life. Get out from all this ugliness. I was willing to sacrifice for that. For you. But little naïve me, you already had it.”
He storms toward me. “And I told you, I was doing my job.”
“So, taking everything away from me was doing your job? My job? My life? Were all those things you said to scare me off even true, or was it just to get me to back off?”
He scoffs. “After everything you’ve seen and heard, you think I’m fucking pulling your chain here?”
“Who knows! You seem to be willing to do anything to not mess up your operation. Case in point, sleeping with me. Well, no need to schmooze me anymore. Your true intentions are clear. I’ll never forgive you for allowing me to fall for you—” The words leave my lips before my brain even registers what I just said. Ugh, stupid mouth! “That’s not what I meant. I don’t even like you.”
“Addy—”
He takes a step closer, and I retreat one back. “For what it’s worth, I was faking it too. Yep! All that moaning and groaning and ‘Wow, Logan, do that again’—it was all fake.”
Logan hisses while tossing his fingers through his hair. “Give me a break.”
“Yeah! You weren’t the only one pretending. I wanted the story, so I was trying to seduce you to get it.”
“Seduce me?”
I cross my arms over my chest, so he doesn’t notice my nipples hardening. “I was…oh, wait…you thought…that…” I throw my head back and laugh. “Oh my God, you thought that was real? That I was actually into you?”
“Addy, you just admitted you’ve fallen for me.”
“Platonic. Friendly. The feelings I would have for a pet rock.” His nostrils flare as he takes another step toward me, and I almost trip back.
“Keep lying to yourself, baby cakes. You were like putty in my hands.”
“Pffft! Yeah right. Not a chance. And for the record, you’re a horrible lover.” Gah! That may be drawing the line. His face explodes with fury. Shoot. I didn’t just poke the bear. I detonated him.
He stalks up to me, eliminating the remaining space between us. “Is that so…?”
I raise my chin, fighting to hold my ground. “Yep. Worst ever. Like…like…” He’s too close. My mouth is suddenly bone dry. Whatever else I want to say is made impossible with my tongue now stuck to the roof of my mouth.
“Tell me just how horrible I am.”
His eyes sear into mine. It’s as if he’s in my head, seeing all the naughty images of him—his hands, his mouth, his thick cock filling me to my deepest depths. His pupils dilate, his eyes becoming dark as night. I inhale a quick breath and take a step back. A hurricane of anger, regret, and lust brews between us and the chaos becomes too raw, shattering the barely held together dam. I take another step back as if the distance will stop us, but it’s too late for that. The storm we’ve been fighting rages, and neither of us stands a chance.
The walls we’ve put up explode, and we launch forward, clawing at each other like crazed animals. There is no kissing away the doubt or caressing one’s uncertainties. This is raw and savage. His hands, rough and unforgiving, grip my butt and lift me up, pushing me against the doorframe. The sweet praises and gentle kisses are nonexistent as he hikes my skirt up and rips my panties to the side. There’s no restraint as he shoves down his jeans, finds my hot, throbbing center, and drives inside me.
