She settles into her seat and I shut her door, and swiftly, I make my way over to the other side while scanning the lot.Looks clear.
“Did I do something?” Sara asks meekly, and just as soon as I slide into the car. My lips quirk as I start the engine, not bothering to answer her. “You seem like you’re mad at me.”
She lowers in her seat, pulling the jacket down her slim shoulders. The movement pushes her perky tits up and I force my eyes away, angry to find the dirty thoughts of what I’d like to do to her now resurfacing.
Gravel and slush spray up as I drive, gaining speed when we hit the back roads again. Sara is tense, with one hand gripping the door and the other on the edge of her seat. And her eyes…I can feel them on me.
After taking a rough curve I should’ve been more gentle on, Sara ends the silence.
“Okay,seriously!” she shakes her head, and I catch it as I shoot her a look, finding her glare. “Really, what did I do? You’ve been a jerk now for hours.” Her arms cross, hiking those tits further up.Goddammit.
My eyes dart ahead as I choose not to respond to another one of her questions. But she shoves me—though it’s so light and gentle, I don’t budge, secretly amused at her attempt.
“Ugh!” she leans back. “You know, Jude, if you were going to act like this you should’ve just left me with Kristina. You didn’thaveto take me.”
I scoff, “Oh, because you would’ve been fine with having your little throat slit in that fucking room, is that it?”
“It’s not like I’ve ever made my own choices so why start now?” she hisses.
Her response is quick, we’re both slightly thrown off by it. Our eyes lock across the center console, and before I can talk myself out of it I jerk the wheel to the left, pulling us across the approaching lane and onto a spit of gravel and snow.
Sara shrieks, bracing herself in the seat as we come to a stop, the car rocking safely to a halt just as I knew it would.
“What are—”
I kiss her, ending another question from her lips roughly. It’s abrupt, but forceful—our mouths fusing as I swallow her yelp, tugging her closer. Her lips are full, lush and soft; just how they’ve looked from the start. I suck on her bottom lip, causing a moan to push out of her at the same damn time. And suddenly, our trance is broken.
It dawns on me what I’ve just done, and I pull back.
Sara’s eyes go wide, seeming as if she’s lost on what the hell is happening.
I huff, gliding a hand over my short hair. “I’m sorry, angel. That was just another choice I took away from you.”
But I couldn’t help myself. I’ve been waiting to kiss those lips from minute one of meeting—wanting to do much more, but yet still holding myself back.As it’s for the best.
She slants back into her seat, slowly pulling a hand up to her mouth, touching her lips gently with two fingers. The gesture is nearly enough to get me to lean back in, tugging her closer as I—
Shit. We need to keep moving.
Shifting gears, I put the car in drive and get us back out on the road, and carefully.
A silent mile later Sara asks, “Where are we going?”
“Canada,” I reply, aware it’s our only option.We’ll be safe there…for now.

SARA
We’ve been hiding out in Vancouver for a little over a week now. And it’s not a cheap city, I’ll admit. But Jude seems to have enough money to cover everything we’ve needed so far, insisting I keep my own money tucked away. It’s not like I had much in my coat, but at least enough to help us out for the time being.
Though still, he refuses to let me pay for a thing.
The house we’re in is small and cozy inside, so nothing like the life of luxury Luca folded me into. No soaking baths, no suede chairs or giant beds. But the one bed that’s bigger than the rest, Jude pushed for me to take. He opted for the tiny twin-sized mattress in the other room, and it hardly holds him I can imagine.
I stay up most nights just thinking ofhim. It’s impossible not to…
I can’t get over how much space the man takes up. It’s like everywhere I turn, he seems to be there—all broad shoulders with those piercing gray eyes. And when he has to move past…the way his hips brush against my ass at times makes it hard for me not to react.
