“You’re right. I’m a fucking coward who won’t stand up for myself. I follow orders. But you’re wrong about my ability to control my future. I may not be able to control what I do on this boat, but I will after.”
“How?”
“Because this is my final assignment. After this, I’m free.”
She sucks in a breath, and for the first time, I see real terror in her eyes. She realizes there is nothing she can do to stop me from killing her. That my desire to be free is greater than my desire to save her.
Kai takes a second to compose herself, and then she stands. She walks to me, ignoring the gun in my hand pointed toward her leg.
Her lips pout, and her body sways as she walks toward me.
My pulse races, my jaw twitches, and my cock hardens.
I want her.
There’s no denying it. It’s been a while since I’ve felt a kiss like the one she just gave me. No, I’ve never had a kiss like that one.
It was passionate, mysterious, sweet, and full of promise. Her first kiss was everything a kiss should be. Too bad it will also be her last kiss.
I want Kai.
More than I want to breathe.
More than I want my freedom.
I could have both. Spend the day kissing her, fucking her, using her. Then get the freedom I’m desperate for.
As Kai moves closer, I know that is what she is offering me too. Her body on a platter. She thinks it is the only possibility she has at keeping herself alive. If I develop any feelings for her, then I won’t kill her. But that’s not going to save her. Nothing will.
She reaches out hesitantly, touching my face.
My eyes stay glued to hers as I watch her tongue caress her bottom lip. And then I remember how good it felt to have her lips pressed against mine. But I’ve had years of training in self-control. No matter how much Kai tempts me, I won’t give in.
She presses her lips to mine, softly.
“You can try to seduce me all you want; it won’t save you.”
“I beg to differ,” she purrs back before her lips crash hard against mine.
After putting my gun back in my waistband, I close my eyes as my hands grip her body, jerking her to me. Her body is cold, soft, and so breakable in my arms—everything I’ve always wanted but never been able to taste. The mix of hot and cold together creating a tsunami in both of us.
The only women I’ve been with were whores or worked for my father. They were all skilled in how to kiss, how to fuck. It was business to them. Not Kai. She’s a breath of fresh air, untamed and wild with her movements.
Her tongue pushes deeper, exploring my mouth without the finesse I’m used to. And damn, that turns me on.
“Fuck,” I growl as she knees me in the balls.
I knew it was coming. Despite knowing she would try something like this, it didn’t stop me from taking the brief moment of pleasure. Something I almost always deny myself, because it makes me weak.
Kai runs, but I take my time chasing after her. The ship is big, but not so large I won’t be able to find her. And even if it were too large, I would still be able to find her. I’m too drawn to her not to notice her heart beating, begging me to stay away and yet still hoping I will find her and claim her.
After adjusting myself in my jeans, I feel the pain ease, and I start walking. The gun has returned to my hand as I walk.
I should be pissed and angry about what she did. I should find her and shoot her on the spot without giving her another second to breathe. But I know I won’t, because she intrigues me.
I hear the engines roar.
I shake my head, knowing exactly where she is.
