“Like me, you mean.”
“You’re not scary, Ace.” Her voice is slurred, making me wish I cut her off a beer before I did. “I know you’ll protect me. Everyone is wrong about you, you know. You’re a good person. You make good choices.” Guilt engulfs me as her words rock my body.
“Oh yeah. Who says otherwise?”
“Conner.”
My brows pull together as anger swells in the pit of my stomach. If he’s in agreement with James and is warning Remi off me, then I’ll string him up by his fucking balls.
“And what did Conner say?”
“Shit. I shouldn’t have told you that. Whoopsie.” She covers her mouth with her delicate fingers and tries to look innocent. “Forget I said anything?”
“Sure,” I say with a smile. I can forget until the next time I’m face to face with my brother.
“Come on, let’s get you home.”
“I don’t want to go home.” She pouts as I pull her helmet on and lift the visor.
“No? Where do you want to go?”
“To your pool house.”
“Isn’t your mom expecting you?” She quirks an eyebrow. “Princess, have you been holding out on me?”
“I’m not the only one who can keep secrets, Jag.”
I chuckle at her use of my Heights nickname. “Oh yeah?”
“You want to know them?”
“Sure. Enlighten me.”
“I want you to take me back to your bed to do wicked things to me. And…” she says before she gasps and blushes.
“And?”
“I want you to fuck me on my birthday.” Her teeth sink into her bottom lip, as if she’s embarrassed to ask me.
“I thought you wanted a tattoo for your birthday.”
“I do. But I also want you,” she whispers the last two words, and I nearly come on the fucking spot with anticipation. She’s so innocent and sweet.
So fucking sexy.
“If that’s what you want, then who am I to deny you, Princess?”
A wide smile spreads across her face.
“Now, let’s go and make your first wish come true.”
I throw my leg over my bike and wait for her to join me.
With her wrapped around me, I head home, to my pool house, to do almost all the things I’ve been imagining while sitting beside her tonight.
